Which type of med student will you be?

This forum made possible through the generous support of SDN members, donors, and sponsors. Thank you.
this is almost as old as the internet. but it's always nice to see again.

i'd probably be a mix of the gunner, one-track mind, and prankster.
 
I'd say I'll be a mix of the painfully enthusiastic and the gunner. 😉
 
I'm thinking a mix of painfully enthusiastic, twelve-year old, and sane one.
 
enthusiastic, sane, gunner...i believe i'd be somewhat of a "helpful gunner" if such a thing could exist though. determination without the cutthroat mentality. or something. i don't know. i'm sleepy. i wish my office had a couch... 😴
 
just call me the missing sane enthusiastic one track mind (ortho is awesome, i'm going to see a spine surgery after lunch)

A sane gunner is an oxymoron.
 
I'll be a painfully enthusiastic, one track mind slacker 😛
 
That was cute. One track mind, gunner, and academic. During my pms times the crier lol. I guess a little bit of everything. Maybe I'm bipolar.
 
been posted many times. I think there should be a cynic on there. Or a greedy bastard
 
enthusiastic! 😀
although being the absent one could be kinda cool
i've done the folding jeans at the GAP (well Banana but still)....i believe it's like a torture device, especially when your table is straight & a mass of ppl walk in and jack it up....makes me a little postal, enraged, psychotic

hahaha! (former ann taylor employee here) When you are told to fold a table and a person comes over there, seeing you folding the shirts, and messes up all the stacks to look for their xl shirt only to decide they don't like it and put it back. Don't get me started on the fitting rooms.
 
Definitely the Prankster.
 
Painfully enthusiastic,the one track mind, the sensitive soul

but if a gunner tries to f with my ish then I will have to get gangsta...oh's that the thirteenth medstudent
 
Uhhh, without a doubt the 12 year old...

"Vagina."

"Pffftttt......"

"Flatulance."

"Pffftttt......"

Mix in a little bit of the angry guy too...

So, it will sound like this instead:

"Anus."

"Pfffftttttthahahahahahahah-"

"Shut up please!"

"I'll kill you tonight and not thing twice about it bit$#!"
 
I'm sickeningly nice, but one day I'm afraid I'll snap and become the perpetually enraged.
 
I'll have to be a gunner at Wisconsin if I matriculate there, with their BS system of letter grades (most of the profs hate it). If I get off the waitlists, I will definitely be the questionable admission for a couple of months... anyone who knows me, knows I act like that in most new situations.
 
Definetly the 12 year old!!! I still giggle with my friends when a TA does a bad drawing of a test tube with a meniscus. Or in Orgo when we talked about Back-side attacks. I just hope I won't be the Crier...I never thought I would be until this whole applying to med-schools year - wow i surprised myself what a baby i could be!!!
 
12 yr old i laugh at a lot of things.
 
I'm probably painful enthusiast/overly academic/gunner/one-track mind/sane one. So a little of everything except the ridiculous stuff. 😛
 
painfully sensitive/one-track mind/12 year old

That will always make me laugh; even until the day I die.
 
I would DEFINATELY be "The Painfully Enthusiastic."
During the summer between my freshman and sophomore years in college I started shadowing in a big ER/Trauma center.
My mentor left me in the ER under the wing of a 4th year med student, and went up to check on other things.
Thirty minutes later he called the station of the ER where I was to make sure I was doing ok.
They handed the phone over to me and I said, no joke: "Oh, Dr X, it's just so wonderful, like Christmas! Thank you for letting me see all this!" 😳
Ok so I was young and innocent, all of 19. But I was genuinely excited!
Yes I realize it's a bit silly to be excited over gunshot wounds and broken bones (I'm sure the patients were anything but), but he got what I meant and was glad I was so excited about medicine.
I can just imagine how excited I'll be when I'm actually doing rounds myself for the first time. Don't hate my 'cause I'm into it! 😳
 
i'll be the one passed out in the back of class. thanks
