You're actually the only Muslim Hispanic I have known (although anonymously). :eek: Not intending to flame (but my general naiveté), but there aren't Spanish Muslim countries, are there?

Haha yeah, I mean, I am 50% Puerto Rican from my mom (she is Muslim too). Goro told me to take advantage of it for my apps.
There are no official ones, but there are lot of Muslims in Spain and some larger populations in Chile and Argentina. Not sure if you know, but Hispanics like their pigs, alcohol and women, so its not the best place for a Muslim to live lol.

Not questioning anything. Just curious, since it was interesting at first to identify a Muslim Hispanic... Alas, I go to a completely isolated university with no real world aspects. :cry::cry:

Hispanics like pigs? Ok. That I didn't know.

My numbers are too low for Jefferson I think. Haven't checked.

MSU is heavily instate biased, but Med College of Wisconsin isn't, it's private with 53% of the class as OOS. The University of Wisconsin on the other hand is very IS biased.

Remove Temple, Loma Linda & MSU. This list gets smaller and smaller lol, you guys are saving me cash, thanks.

OK, Jefferson is in my range. And it's private which is a huge plus for me (don't have to worry about IS bias or having ties)


Medical College of Wisconsin
Thomas Jefferson
University of Miami
Georgetown

:thumbup: Yeah, I think Jefferson would be a great choice! And yeah, I was thinking of Wisconsin. :laugh:

Just found out my MCAT date is going to be in Ramadan..., I'm pretty sure I should reschedule to August, thoughts?

Hmmm ... is it due to the fasting? I mean ... if you can grunt through the 4 hours test without snacks, you could go for it. August seems slightly late doesn't it?

If you delay your test to August, your scores won't be transmitted til September. Some schools will have already started giving out interviews by then. Are you sure you want to do something like that.

Your stunning beauty, charm and wit will make us millions!!!! We'll be rich!!!!

I tried to auction plumazula off, but she somehow hijacked the train, freed the prisoners, and forced them to auction me off. That was embarrassing...

I did not see that coming...all Leafs fans are currently sobbing into their beers, thinking the Leafs could be the ones thisclose to the SCF if only they hadn't screwed up that last game against Boston...

The Toronto Leafs is totally garbage. The only team worse is the Blackhawks.

I studied during Ramadan, including many full lengths, and was okay, but it really depends on you. Also, are you taking the test more than 30 miles away? Break your fast and do qadha later. (Or schedule your test for a further location to allow this.) Pushing back to August might be more risky if you're applying this year.

Also Guyana is a kind of cool country in all it's diversity. A lot of Muslims, due to the Indian and Southeast Asian influence. It seems to depend on how long a families been there, but I remember a Guyanese girl who considering herself Hispanic, but was also born and raised Muslim (7% of their population).

Drexel is in the middle of the city and you have to take a shuttle from the medical school to the teaching hospital. Temple is unfortunately the school in the unsafe environment (at least the undergrad and associated schools are).

I am not scared bring it on!! I would love to train in a county chaotic hospital rather than a slow pace, private hospital... but that's just me.:naughty:

Indeed me too! But I'd hate to get robbed walking to my apartment. These guys spun Will Smith around above their heads, and I'm not nearly as big as him.

Same here, one of the reasons why I'd love to go to UCLA or USC is because of the hospitals are in such an environment. Temple, Drexel, and Jefferson are all on my list. Now I'm just hoping my FAP appeal goes through.

I try, I try.

So I've got a few psych classes that could certainly be considered as biology or math. So far I've marked

Bio psych as bio
Quant as math
Drugs & behavior as bio
Health psych as bio
Research methods as math

Marking 'child & adolescent development' as bio could give me a .03 sGPA increase. The class covered both biological development and psychological development equally, I would say. Worth it to mark it as bio?

i don't see why not. they'll just change it themselves if they deem it not worthy of being BCPM. I did the same thing with my classes last time I applied (cognitive neuropsych, brain disorders, sensory and perception) and it worked.

Cool, I'll go for it. I'm really kicking myself in the ass for not taking cognitive psych or sensation & perception (both taught by my research PI too...) :(

I marked D&B and Research Methods as Psych. D&B only as non-science since I need that professor's letter as my non-sci LOR. :laugh:

If they change it, I wouldn't be too sad ... 4.0'ed both so it'd probably bumped by sGPA a bit more.

I honestly didn't expect you to leave the top abandoned...

Oh dear...her invisible boyfriend is sure to be upset.

He's invisible because I permanently auctioned the real one off to some guy in Russia. Your sister thought he dumped her. Poor girl.

The professor I took bio psych and D&B from I'm going to consider my 2nd science LOR if it's marked as such.

Thread just died. Everybody must be working hard on their AMCAS. :laugh:

Anyways, I've finished my main application :soexcited:

Tweaked my PS a little bit, but I think I'm going to mostly keep it the same ...

The day is slowly dawning on us! :scared:
