Since there was four of us Jack had to sit by himself with two other strangers but he didn’t mind. The engines suddenly started to roar as I started to get pushed gently back into my seat.

My uncle told me to wait by the lift as he went to collect the car so I wouldn’t have to walk as far and drag my suitcase along. While I waited, I took time to look around at the surroundings. I could see mountains which stretched towards the clouds and the airport behind me. There were a vast number of people walking around from their flight looking drowsy and with no energy.

The Atlantis Project was appealing to me because it not only offers preparation for medical school through clinical shadowing and MCAT prep, but also helps to train well-rounded future physicians. Community volunteering, for example, gives students the opportunity to experience life in other parts of the world, and to be more culturally competent and aware.
