Nope......although at times I feel like I've been around medicine long enough that I should be a resident or attending :laugh:

BTW, once I reach my residency, I'll switch that around to read "Smartass Resident"
 
Health Science Studies
 
Biochemistry and Political science baby! (So i'm not sure what to put for your poll . . . )

It's cuz we are Canadian...and we're all forced into slavery AKA bio sciences when we figure out we want to be doctors. We have no pre-med committees and we're not creative like our American friends, so we weren't smart enough to think that med schools would say "omg, she majored in languages and took med pre-reqs...that's original, let's take one of those"

Hehe...I'm tired, but it's so true 🙂
 
Is Biochem bio or not? It's in the chem dept. at my school...
 
jessy_erin: Extremely true about Canadian residents. I'm pure bio lol.
Where in Canada are you? And to follow up, where in that province/territory.

This is actually a two-part question. I'm applying for a summer internship at Brewster Keegan. I was wondering, a) what's it like being an investment banker, and b) would you write me a recommendation?


What movie about a med student going thru application cycle motions?
 
Biomedical Science.
 
Janitorial Sciences
 
Major in Chemistry. Double Minor in Arabic and Spanish

And you, my friend, win the award for worst poll ever.
 
I Hate Bio i am BioChem/ Fine ART 🙂
 
this is just a random question, how do u make polls?! i can't figure it out.
anyways, i was engineering major.
 
Double Major in Electrical Engineering and Mathematics.

I think I get to claim Chem as a minor by the time I finish pre-med requirements. Also trying to finish a certificate in "Ethics and Leadership: Ethics of Healthcare". Sounds like a lot, but really there is so much overlap it's almost ridiculous...
 
Bachelors of dope dealing

yup. academic slavery sucks. we also have to take 5 courses per semester here in Canada or our application gets thrown out! 😱

it seems like the US offers a buttload of options!
 
People who major in non-bio and take premed requirements are soo cliche. Boo on them.
 
econ here
