Computer ScientistAspiring physician

I am the niche

Hi, I’m Numan Ahmad, a Computer Science major with a passion for growth, creativity, and community.From the day I was born, medicine has been a significant part of my identity. Growing up in a culture where “doctor” is often the ultimate goal, I embraced this path early. I'm a huge biryani fan.But this website? It’s my chance to unlock my potential and step into my truest self.

CREATIVITY MEETS DETERMINATION

In my earlier years, I explored music production using GarageBand and FL Studio, honing my skills and building a creative outlet I still cherish. Later, I enrolled in Texas A&M’s Partnership for Primary Care BS/MD program, a journey that has instilled confidence in my ability to one day become a physician. While my MCAT score was not what I hoped for, I’m not giving up. I believe that with hard work, perseverance, and the right mindset, I can achieve my goals.

COMMUNITY OF DREAMERS

This website is more than just a personal project; it’s a platform for growth—for me and for you. My vision is to create a space where people from all walks of life can come together, support one another, and strive for success in their own pursuits.Life is full of choices, and every decision shapes our future. Accountability is one of the most important lessons I’ve learned in college, and it’s a value I want to share with this community. Let’s embrace the hard choices, support one another, and make the right ones.It’s time to lock in and chase our dreams together. Let’s get to work.

MEDICINE

On my first real attempt at the MCAT, I shared my experience in a score reaction video. Many viewers encouraged me to consider applying to DO schools, but I struggled to come to terms with the fact that I hadn’t secured a spot in medical school through my BS/MD program.

Around this time, the MIT neurosurgeon, Goobie and Doobie, released videos offering his perspective on the state of healthcare today. He likened a patient to a house with a leaking roof, illustrating that much of modern medicine focuses on superficial fixes. For example, the role of a neurosurgeon, he explained, often involves replacing drywall and repainting walls damaged by the leak, rather than addressing the root cause—the hole in the roof.

After being removed from my BS/MD program and grappling with the reality of a disappointing MCAT score, I found myself harboring a growing resentment toward healthcare and the very idea of becoming a doctor.

At this point, I became increasingly frustrated with myself—for not enrolling at a better school, for losing the rare opportunity to matriculate through a BS/MD program, and for the decisions I had allowed myself to make.However, after learning about the neurosurgeon’s perspective, my resentment slowly shifted into curiosity. I began to question: Is medicine truly centered on patient care, or is it just a business? With zero dollars left in my pocket (all spent on AAMC Full-Length exams, of course), I found myself dreaming of becoming a businessman—but only on one condition: it had to be halal.
This curiosity sparked a revival of my interest in medicine. I started seeking more information and began to view healthcare through two lenses: the interpersonal satisfaction of patient interactions and the larger systemic forces shaping the industry. Around this time, I stumbled across Diary of a CEO's video discussing cancer rates and the simplicity of genuine cures for common health issues. I learned that nearly 90% of a person’s exposome—the environmental factors influencing health—is within their control. Through exercise and diet, individuals can largely dictate their own health outcomes.
As I reconciled this period of cognitive dissonance, my perspective on medicine began to shift. I grew increasingly intrigued by Osteopathic Medicine—a holistic approach that emphasizes addressing the root causes of disease rather than relying solely on medication as a means to sustain life. I came to understand that a doctor’s role is not simply to cure patients for financial gain but to assess their condition, foster accountability, and inspire a mindset that empowers them to take control of their health.The holistic philosophy of DO medicine, which examines a patient’s condition from the roots of disease to its impact on the human spirit and soul, gave me a sense of fulfillment. I realized that an Osteopathic education would provide the tools I needed to help solve patients’ dilemmas at their core.For three months, I took a step back to rest, reframe my vision, and plan my next steps. In this period of reflection, I rediscovered my drive and decided to continue preparing for this important test.I now feel confident that I have found my calling.

MCAT OVERVIEW

MY PERFORMANCE

STUDY MATERIAL

As you can see, my score improved significantly, rising from 489 to 502. I believe this increase is a testament to the power of determined study and effective preparation. One of the key tools in my journey was a custom Anki deck I created, based on educational objectives from questions I answered incorrectly on UWorld’s platform.For those of you aspiring to enter the field of medicine, this deck might be a valuable resource. While it is personalized to address my own areas of weakness, it still offers an excellent review of core concepts. Each card includes an educational objective directly from UWorld and AAMC practice tests, providing concise and targeted explanations. I hope this resource can assist you in your journey toward a medical career.

ABOUT ME

HERE'S MY LIFE SO FAR:

Many years ago I made mistakes.
Yesterday I made mistakes.
Today I made mistakes.

The recognition of these experiences has become a manifestation of my repentance (tawbah, توبة). Yet, despite my past decisions—whether good or bad, deliberate or unavoidable—I remain alive, healthy, capable, and blessed with countless opportunities.Perhaps you are not pursuing a medical career, and it’s possible you haven’t made the same mistakes I have. But one thing unites us: we all make mistakes. Such is the human condition.For me, this journey is about maximizing and actualizing my potential, but I don’t believe this ambition is unique to me. If you’re reading this, the same applies to you. From an Islamic perspective, we know that our souls are endowed with free will. Many moments in my life feel like an amaanah (trust) from Allah, who has blessed us both with time, energy, and abilities to succeed.

WHAT HAVE I DONE?

I’ve achieved several milestones that reflect my growth, determination, and adaptability. Academically, I successfully navigated the challenges of a demanding BS/MD program while prioritizing personal development, even when faced with setbacks. My analytical and research skills shine through my detailed YouTube analytics thesis, where I extracted and analyzed data to evaluate video performance using advanced regression models. Additionally, I’ve gained technical expertise in programming, data science, and game development, highlighted by projects such as a game developed in Unreal Engine 5 and GitHub-hosted repositories showcasing my technical abilities.Beyond academics, I’ve embraced leadership roles, including serving as Vice President of the Student Honors Council, where I’ve fostered community and encouraged engagement among Honors College students. On a personal level, I’ve tackled challenges like improving my GPA, preparing for the MCAT, and navigating the responsibilities of adulthood, all while consistently reassessing my goals and striving for continuous self-improvement.

WHAT I'M DOING NEXT:

My next steps involve building on what I’ve accomplished while focusing on clear, achievable goals. In the short term, I aim to strengthen my resume and portfolio by completing key projects, such as my e-portfolio and finalizing my YouTube analytics thesis. I also plan to secure internships or job opportunities—like the roles at Vusion Group or Celonis—to gain valuable hands-on experience in my field and broaden my professional skill set.In the mid-term, I want to reflect deeply on where my passions and financial goals intersect, whether that path leads to medicine, computer science, or entrepreneurship. During this phase, I will focus on building meaningful connections with mentors and professionals to help refine my direction. At the same time, my aspiration to become a physician remains a driving force, and I will continue pursuing this goal with determination.Long-term, I aim to translate my knowledge and skills into impactful contributions, whether through innovative projects, leadership roles, or launching a business. Equally important, I want to maintain a balance between professional success and personal fulfillment, building a career and a life that I can look back on with pride.
