Great selection. Environmental law is really cool. SO many acronyms, though.I'm doing a biology capstone (which will require no work because I'm doing the research project and writing the paper this summer), astronomy, environmental law, introduction to Caribbean literature, and biochemistry II.

Where's your school list @Lannister? What's the point of having MDApps if no school list
Lol. My dog's name is Seamus. One time, a little kid asked what his name was, and we told him, and then he went "Hi Shamen!"Once I was at the ice cream store with my dog when he was a puppy, and a lady came up and asked what kind of dog he was and I said "goldendoodle". Five minutes later I hear her talking to her friend and she's like "you see that dog over there? It's called a golden noodle".

Now our dog almost exclusively goes by Shamen, though we also call him Shamwow, Shamoo, Shambies, Shamoozie, Shea, Shambeezies, and, of course, Puppy.
He's a weird, unknown mix. We think he's a dacshund/JRT mix. I'm not sure what you'd call that? We rescued him! He's pretty tiny though- about 13 lbs.Ahaha that's so cute! What kind of dog?

Yeah I am! I have a Thibault jersey and a blank one. I really wanted to get a Crawford one, but they didn't have them in women's when my parents were buying me one! Agreed, between my score and the Cup, I'm on cloud 9 right now. Only thing is I'm sick, so I've been in bed all day (that's why I'm posting so much-I swear I have a life normally!)Aww I love daschunds! Especially the long-haired ones, so cute.
BTW, I was stalking the April MCAT thread (congrats on your incredible score btw) and saw someone say that you are a Blackhawks fan? I still have not come down from the high, I'm listening to We Are the Champions on repeat atm and trying to resist dropping $170 on a jersey. I already have a Sharp jersey sweatshirt thing, but I really want a Crawford or Keith jersey :'(
I think that's a good list! I actually haven't finalized my list. I've applied for my state schools/"good shots" but still have yet to pick and choose my reaches. Hence my eyeroll worthy MDapps...I wanted my list to be in alphabetical order so I figured it was easier to delete schools rather than redo my whole list later, lolOh I tried to add a school list but it wouldn't let me because I have a new MCAT score and you can't add an app cycle without MCAT scores lol.
My provisional list:
Baylor
Boston University
Case Western
Creighton
Dartmouth
George Washington University
Georgetown
Loyola University Chicago
Mayo (lol)
Medical College of Wisconsin
Northwestern
Ohio State University
Pennsylvania State University
Rosalind Franklin
Rush
Tufts
University of Chicago
University of Cincinnati
University of Colorado
University of Illinois
University of Michigan
University of Rochester
University of Wisconsin
Yale
I'm still waiting for my actual MCAT score, but I'm not sure if the list will change at all if I get 88th percentile vs 99th percentile. And I've gotten minimal input on my list so idk, I dunno if it's a good list.

Thank you!If I do buy one I'm definitely going to buy a men's cuz I think the women's look weird, but they have no small men's for Crawford on the NHL website Maybe I will just wait until Sharp's contract is up to get a jersey (1 more year...sadness). I wonder if he'll be traded, there are some pretty nasty rumors going around about him
And I hope you feel better!!
Thank you!
I have DDs, so the men's jerseys make me look like a barrel, for some reason. The Women's jerseys accommodate boobs a bit better, I feel, so that's why I decided to go with that for my most recent one. But yeah you really can't go wrong with a core 7 jersey! (Though Kane and Toews jerseys are like the hallmark of a bandwagon fan)
How about Keith?Hahaha I see. I am trying to avoid the Kane and Toews jerseys because I feel like everyone has them, but I do love Captain Serious. I'd also consider Hjalmarsson. But I want to get one for a player who's going to be on the Hawks for a while cuz I can't afford to buy one and then have the player leave lol.
How about Keith?
Lol. In terms of attractiveness, I find Shaw to be SUPER hot. Idk why.Actually he was my top choice until five minutes ago when I saw this picture and got scared.

Oh yeah well Sharp's a given, and then I go Shaw. It's not really fair to include Sharp in these comparisons though, so I cut him out. Toews is not that attractive, but he's better looking than Kane! Then again, I don't like blond guys generally.Ewww. No. Sharp is definitely the most attractive. I will never understand why people find Toews attractive, he's so ugly.

See, last night was fun, but also depressing.
No matter what I accomplish in my path to becoming a doctor, it will never be as great as winning a Stanley Cup.
Legally, he can't even drink to celebrate this victory.I can't stop thinking that, either. Teravainen is 20 years old. TWENTY! He's younger than me by two weeks, and he's won the Stanley Cup!
Lannister, didn't even realize it was you w/o your avvie--GOT ends and Blackhawks win, changing of the seasons, eh?
Has anyone considered getting a pet in med school? I'm sitting here watching this adorable corgi puppy play on the quad and I want to steal it so bad. I don't think having a dog in med school is a very good idea though... Maybe I'll get a cat. I just wish I wasn't allergic to them.
You got this!!! It will be over soon, and then we can all look forward to even MORE essays...One of my readers is killing me. I was poised to submit on the 18th but it's been extended to tomorrow at the earliest because I've gone through several drafts with her since then. This is totally my fault though for not giving her enough time. Also she's reading all three MD/PhD essays instead of just the PS. I just want to move on with my life!
Ok so 4/5 of my letter writers have turned in their letters. I'm still waiting on my freaking humanities letter though! It's super weird because when I first asked her (beginning of April), she was very enthusiastic, but said to give her my materials before Memorial Day since she was going to have a grandson soon and she wanted to get in done before that. After I turned in my final paper, she sent me an email saying how great I'd been in her class and how much she genuinely enjoyed having me as a student, and she said she "looked forward to starting the letter." I haven't heard anything from her, so this week I sent her a gentle reminder, which I thought was very warm in tone. She sent me this in response.
Ok. I will get it out & let you know when.
With apologies,
SN
Seems very curt! Hopefully she is just super busy helping her daughter with her new grandchild. I'm a little worried though...
@enchantediris Dude that sucks, that lady sounds like a *****. I've gotten so much attitude from nurses and secretaries at the hospital, too. But oh well, I guess we just have to learn to not let it get to us!
Yeah, I definitely have to work on taking things less personally! I think she's had to deal with her fair share of fresh-out-of-school residents who think they're better than everyone else because they're doctors so I can kind of see where she's coming from. I was just very confused because I was drafting a lab report in the downtime and got caught up in a rant! I'm not super looking forward to going back next week, but I do like the new volunteer who also has my shift so it probably won't be so bad.
Haha and yeah, as soon as you say that it's quiet, things inevitably start picking up again
Hopefully that's it! To be honest, my main concern was that I hoped everything was okay with her new grandchild. I asked how she and her daughter were doing in my reminder email, and as you can see, she didn't address it. It's just such a stark contrast from her other emails, where she almost writes a little too much! Maybe she's just very busy?Also @chocoholicsoxfan, I wouldn't worry too much about the email — maybe your professor is a bit embarrassed that she's been procrastinating for that long?

Trust me, I'm not worried because I'm a neurotic premed- I tend to actually be the most relaxed out of all my premed friends, shocking as it may be I just didn't want to have her worry about writing me a letter if something stressful is happening with her new grandson.
Also, if anyone is looking for a fun summer movie, I definitely recommend Inside Out (especially if you like neuroscience)! I saw it yesterday and it was so great!
oh my god I thought I was the only one.Also I apologize for using so many exclamation points... when I write emails I usually have to proofread them to prevent myself from using them too excessively
Yeah I think it's unfortunate that people in the healthcare industry are all so disrespectful of each other. Doctors think they're superior and treat nurses like garbage, then the nurses take their frustration out on the students and volunteers. It's a vicious cycle.
you can't change AMCAS now. Your call on whether to add it in the secondaries, it's not what that space is usually for, thoughSo after having my primary verified...I realized that forgot to document two of my work experiences in the Activities Section. I did end up talking about one of these work experiences in my PS, but I guess I'll be making use of "anything else you'd like to tell us" prompts in some secondaries after all...
Does anyone know how else I could go about fixing this problem?
