A Rare Breed

Matt Cox is a senior at the University of Oklahoma and is considered the number one medical school prospect coming out of OU this year. That in itself is enough to earn the label "rare breed" but there are other factors that make Matthew Cox a distinct individual.


Along with being such a prominant pre-med student he is not certain if he is going to pursue medical school. The reason for this, he is also considering going to law school. He has already taken the MCAT and graded out extremely well obviously. He took the LSAT on Saturday and feels very confident that he passed with flying colors.


"I believe everybody has certain gifts that God gives them and for me it was the ability to excel in the academic arena, so I just try and do my best no matter what the situation," said Cox.


Cox also takes the time out of his usually busy life to help kids with golf lessons. He played golf in high school and loves being around and helping kids become better with whatever they are trying to accomplish.


"It is my responsibility to give back to the community because I have been fortunate enough to been blessed with so much," Cox said.
