It's in my MDApps but I was complete on 7/8congrats! when were you complete?
Cornell was pretty awesome. The research opportunities alone are incredible, and the facilities are great. I'm still not completely sold on PBL, but there's less of it than they claim, only 90 minutes 3x a week. Everyone (starting last year) gets an iPad, which they claim is very helpful, especially in histo.
And that cush M1? M2 is much harder, from what I heard. Still not in lecture/class too much, but they really make the first year easier in compared to some schools in order to ease everyone into school.
I was very happy with what I saw; not sure if my interviews were the best ever, but this school seemed great. I'd be thrilled to go - too bad it's non-rolling.
It looks like it only takes 1 working day for them to send the "application complete" email after submitting the secondary
Interview invite just now!! Complete 6/29. Also sent an "in the area" email three weeks ago.
rejected. sad life, one of my top choices. love the city, love the location, love the school. but tis' life. good luck everyone!!!
for those wondering: (complete 8/10, 35, 3.85s/c)
Sorry to hearI'm sure you will have good news from some other schools!! If you don't mind, was it via e-mail/status check/snail mail?
Just sent an in area email. Hope I have the same luck as some of the others and get an interview! Would absolutely love to attend Weill!
I have some friends who have done training (med school, residency and fellowship) across the major medical schools in NYC, and I've heard from quite a few people that they thought students at Cornell were treated the worst (by faculty and I guess administration) and that it had the most internal competition and 'infighting' between students. This is highly subjective of course, but it was repeated to me by at least three different people in different stages of their training who don't know each other.
Does anyone else have an opinion or specific knowledge on this?
There have already been posts to this thread about extra-curricular activities in things like music, so at least some people are not spending 24/7 in utter misery, but if anyone has anything to contribute on relative quality of life issues in NYC schools, it would be useful information.
MSTP II!
Complete 9/20!
My girlfriend goes to Cornell and said she's never heard of such rumors nor has she experienced any poor treatment/sense of competition amongst the student body either. The students I've come across seemed pretty chill. I dont know how it used to be back in the day, but all it takes is a few people to repeat the same opinion over and over before its accepted as fact.
