Hey everyone,
I am a current first year medical student at NYMC....I am writing this post up because I live in a 3 BR house about 2 miles from campus and am looking for a third roommate for the upcoming school year (lease starts 8/1/13 for the year). The house is a great place to live (big, close to campus, backyard, dishwasher and laundry, lots of common space and driveway and the landlord is cool and has rented to NYMCers for a while). My roommate and I are both medical students as well as fun loving, easy to live with, quiet and respectful guys who take school seriously but also know how to kick back and have fun during the down time. If you are planning to come to NYMC this fall and are interested in living off campus, then this is an ideal opportunity for you. Send me a PM for details etc etc. Thanks!!!
Also a quick comment on the school.... I love it here, the teachers really care about the students, the community is close knit, on campus housing is good, NYC is close (my girlfriend lives there and I see her on average 2-3ish times a week) and most important we do very well as a school on the USMLE part 1 and in our matchlist (this is what really counts when picking a med school, not where its located or what people "think" about it, or its "reputation"). You go to med school to become a good doctor (a clinician if you come here, NYMC focuses more on producing patient oriented physicians rather than academics) and to get a residency you desire and career you will enjoy...and this is what NYMC excels at. The BS people peddle about it being a "safety" school simply is not true, as we received 10,000+ applications last year and accepted ~450-500 for a 200 person class. You do the math (500/10,0000) is a small percentage. PM me about the house or if you have any questions, I'd be happy to answer.
