I think it was a joke.
you need to get your face out of the books and pay more attention to the posts on SDN

On this sane note, which school's have the longest and which the shortest days?whiskers said:Schedules are a very important factor to consider when purchasing a podiatric education.
A decent school, in my opinion, will give the students a generous amount of time to study and absorb the material. If they don't then your potentially at a disadvantage compared with students at schools that allocate more study time to their students. Honestly, I think that this is one of the essentials of any well-respected academic program.
It's great to have professors read old power point presentations all day long and cram a ton of information into their presentation, but the students need enough time to actually learn it.
Before applying to any school, ask to see a schedule for the first year .
If they can't or won't do that, I'd suggest saving yourself the unpredictability and applying elsewhere.
Again, in my opinion, schools with lots of full time faculty (who are allowed more time to teach) are the way to go. They have one job and one work obligation.... the students at one school.

dpmrunner said:WAIT!!! We don't get columbus day off. Now maybe I should have looked at the schedule a little closer, but they did not tell me this on the interview...
Hmm, I think I may transfer schools now, I mean I could just skip that day and celebrate but I think it's the moral of the issue that they don't cherish Columbus day, pretty much the biggest holiday in the US (next to a few larger ones of course)
Dr_Feelgood said:Agreed, but we cannot forget Flag Day or Take Your Dog to Work Day.
