How to Get Honors in Medical School

Medical schools give students honors for academic excellence. The majority of medical schools award honor grades but some do not, so it is important that you inquire with your school about the grades system. Getting honors gives you the opportunity to be nominated into an honors society specifically for medical students. As a medical student, you should work hard to obtain honors grades, so that your transcript will reflect your diligence and excellent achievements.
