I know a lawyer from Zen Hospice Project who lives on a boat in the East Bay with her husband, I want to say near Emeryville. Sounds like one of the hardest parts (in the Bay) is finding a docking slip. Also, I guess it gets pretty cold. But she also lived on a boat in Alaska, so who knows?! Oh wow, now I'm dreaming of getting into the JMP and living on a boat in the East Bay....
Ok, nice! This would be in Sausalito (aka Sausagelito, lol). Yeah, if the boat can't stay in the slip it's in, it's a non-starter, but the sellers have been there for 20+ years and have two other boats there so I'm thinking the marina owner would look favorably on any buyer/friend of theirs. It does sound cold though! Also I'm not sure what my cat would do. I am picturing Cat Overboard...
It's kind of astounding how affordable boat-living is compared to the surrounding community. The full purchase price for this boat wouldn't even cover the annual property taxes on a home across the street. I'm sorry about UCSF. I totally would have rented out my boat to you.
looks amazing despite the tight quarters
WOW. Way to go!!!Accepted to University of Chicago with scholarship!!
I've attended 3. One of the MD interviews I had was a MMI, so I know that was all the same. The other was probably exactly the same as a standard premed interview - they had a list of questions they had to ask, so there was hardly any ability to get to know me as a person and the things they asked were exactly the things I was weak on... precisely because I finished up a third bachelor's super quickly and didn't get involved in much in my school while I was there, since I was still working full time.
. Good luck!!
Congratulations! So exciting! Good luck to all who are waiting. It really isn't over yet.
p.s. @Laterthansooner now that I remember you from real life, gonna go through and read all your posts
EDIT: Also, YES to the LASIK @CloverBale ! I am a super old student and am the only one who can read the fine print on the screen from the back of the room! Seriously life changing!
Washington! OH WHAT, CONGRATULATIONS and YOU will do great!!!
Thanks so much!
Thanks @Hazel-rah! Great advice ... I’ll be sure to come up with a few good patient stories before my interview. I’m also definitely expecting the “why MD instead of NP/CRNA/etc” question so I’ll make certain I’m prepared to answer that one as well.
And no doubt, I’ll probably be about 10 years older than the majority of other applicants!
Thank you! 505 on the MCAT and grades in undergraduate - yikes. I took Gen Chem, Gen Bio, and Physics during my first year of college - a decision that tanked my BCPM unfortunately. Undergrad BCPM was 2.9 (with upward trend) and currently with a 3.5 BCPM in my post-bacc!
soooo good!
anyone see Star Wars?

Also, I'm having abdominal surgery tomorrow, with a 24-48 hour stay after. So that should be fun. But I'm kind of approaching it from a premed "let's get some real patient empathy" standpoint. I can send in an app update about that, right?
