If you're a student at a medical school in Oklahoma, much is at stake. You have to take the necessary precautions. Take a step back. Do not speak to the school or others without taking the necessary precautions. Let your family know what's going on. Whatever the disciplinary action may entail, whether it involves not meeting academic progress, facing remediation, facing dismissal concerns, academic integrity issues, Title IX sexual misconduct, so much is at stake for a medical student, unfortunately, compared to the typical student.
A medical student, if the case is not resolved, effectively, can face lesser residency opportunities, lesser employment opportunities, reduce career earning potential. The case needs to be successfully resolved. Understanding how your medical school will address your specific case is important. You have to understand the processes that are going to be used by the school. It's going to be determined by the school itself, and also the specific issue at hand. That's key.
It's also important to understand that medical schools are often in a rush to judgment, unfortunately, and at times, they may not bear in mind the students' rights and interest and also may not play by their own rules. An experienced attorney advisor can help protect the medical students' rights and interest, can help a medical student navigate the process. He can potentially help allow for a more favorable outcome.
