From Struggle to Triumph!! How I Graduated as a Medical Student with First Class After Almost Giving Up

My name is Brian Kato, and I come from Fort Portal, Uganda. Ever since I was young, I dreamed of becoming a doctor. I was always at the top of my class, and when I finally secured admission to study medicine at one of Uganda’s leading universities, I felt my dream was within reach. But the journey ahead was far from smooth. In fact, there were moments I nearly gave up completely. What happened afterward is something I never imagined but it completely changed my life.

The first two years of university went fairly well. I studied diligently and passed my exams. But in my third year, things took a turn. I could study for hours and still fail basic tests. I began forgetting things I once knew thoroughly. Sometimes I would walk into an exam and my mind would go completely blank. My lecturers began questioning whether I truly belonged in medical school. My classmates started avoiding me. I became the subject of jokes in my class. The more I tried to push through, the worse things seemed. I even visited doctors to check if there was a medical reason for my struggles, but everything came back normal.TO READ MORE, TAP HERE
