Short story: I have a 3.4/40, an MS in biochem, and 0 acceptances so far this year. One thing I am going to do over the next year (if I have the time) is study a second language.
I am NOT asking which language would be most useful as a med student/resident/doctor. The answer to that is spanish.
I am ASKING which language would be most impressive to adcoms and help guarantee an acceptance. Something close to home (french, german)? Something unusual (sign language)? Something exotic (swahili, ukranian)? Or something that will see the most use (spanish!)?
What are your thoughts?
