By definition it takes more work than the average 2x year old is willing to do to get into a professional program (particularly one as competitive and challenging as med school).
That's "work(ing) hard" no matter how you cut it.
OP did more than what the average kid his age accomplishes and got rewarded by his parents.
When I graduated from a professional program, my dad took me out to dinner. I'm 100% confident if he had the means, he would have bought me my dream car too.
Congrats on your ride OP and good luck with your career!
