Got some internet and decided to come on over and wish everyone a happy 2011. I also wanted to give some good luck vibes to all the folks taking the MCAT in a few days. Ah, just last year I was finishing up my winter break and getting ready for that snowy drive to the testing center in Boston...I really should have studied more haha. Oh well, such is life.
Here's where I'm at right now:
GPA----> Pretty darn good for my undergrad, decent for med schools, might keep me out of the competitive places I'm looking at
MCAT--> Only slightly above mediocre. Decent, not going to keep me from becoming a doc, but I probably won't be going to Hopkins
PS-----> I have a few paragraphs and ideas still bouncing around. I'm waiting to catch a baby at the health center here in the next month or so. I feel that will tie my thesis together nicely haha
School List----> Check, short and sweet. A couple reaches, something akin to a match, and my state school where I'd be happy to end up.
LORS----> I have 2 science, 1 non-science, my college work supervisor, my Peace Corps supervisor, and my physician mentor who I shadowed last year all agreed. One is uploaded already, the other profs are doing it this week, my mentor and college supervisor are both currently MIA, and the Peace Corps guy needs help with his English. But, overall, it's going pretty smoothly I'd say.
In other news, I chipped a tooth and might have to come stateside for repairs...but probably not, we'll see. I didn't even chip it in a cool, African way, either. I was totally eating peanut M&Ms. lame, right? Man, I miss snow. Enjoy it!
