I know you think this is an insult, but I just see it differently. Yeah, I did work my butt off to get here, yeah I am working my butt off while I am here so I can be a great dr, but that doesn't mean I'm not lucky. I get the opporunity to have one of the best jobs on the planet (in my opinion!). I work of course, but that's part of the deal. It isn't "selling myself short" -- I worked for what I have, but it doesn't make me less privledged to have it.

Getting a scholarship, getting into a good program, earning awards -- all privledges. People than have a responsibility in return to use them well.
