Hey there, I'm Paul Chmelir, I'm from St. Louis and I'm a biology major with a chemistry minor and this is my sophomore year this year. So my major is a biology major with a chemistry minor and I'm hoping to go into pre-med with it. I'm looking at the realm of anesthesiology and something that's really interested me interested me since I was little and so I'm looking to go down the medical route. Miller Nichols is that it's huge. First off there's never a spot, there's never a time where I can't find a place to sit and it's also fluid where if I want people to talk to, I can go to a floor and do that and not have to worry about people telling me to be quiet. One thing I love about UMKC is that it's super walkable, even if you're in the dorms, you really don't need a car at most a bird scooter.It's really nice, it's the community is really open and friendly, which is great. And then also the teachers are there to help you and it's been a really good experience ever since I've came here.UMKC the connection with health professions is great. I'm actually in a class right now, which the entire point of the class is we sit in different panels each week with two different health care professionals and we just basically get to interview them and ask whatever question we want and they give us great insight and they give us very helpful tips and some of them even work in the pre professional schools after undergraduate programs. So the reason I came to UMKC mostly is because of how tight knit it is. The classes, it's a smaller campus, a smaller student body and which is really nice because personally from where I'm from, I came from a small high school and I like that feeling of not being seen as a number and being seen as my name and my classes are kind of larger being in the being a stem major and so being able to walk into an office and they go, okay, I know your name is this, we can look at your test, we can look at that and they help you. They don't see you as someone, a random person that they'll never know. They try to get to know you.
