Hey
I've been lurking around these boards for months now, and one thing I don't understand is the stigma associated with so called 'gunners'. What's wrong with wanting to do well?
So let me be the first to stand up and say
"My name's Ryan, and I'm a gunner"!
I want to do well. I want to be in the top five of my graduating class, and have my pick of residencies. I want to do well in each and every exam, and I'll do whatever it takes. Study, work hard, you name it. We're all in competition in here - anyone who says otherwise is just kidding themselves. Plus, when I look around the room each and everyone in here is competitive, by virtue of the fact that they got into one of the country's top med schools. I have made so many good friends, but when it comes to all things academic, it's every man for himself.
What's wrong with wanting to do well?
So, let's end this Anti-Gunner Sentiment....
Gunners, I say thee Yay!
