lolwut, did you even read this thread??
Anyone ever visit lamebook? It's basically a site where they post the most ******ed and idiotic posts/pics/etc from facebook. I get scared for the future of this country when I go there. Darwin must be turning in his grave ... so much for evolution.
is there more of this? this stuff is hilarious
If you're ever bored just search for pre-med on facebook. I found this group that has a forum called "what kind of doctor do you want to be"
I figured this was post-worthy after reading the first response:

I picked some of the ones I found most hilarious/sad/naive/etc:
right now i want to be a pediatric surgeon. i have probably loved surgery stuff since birth. it fascinates me. i wathed saw 3 the other day, while most were being grossed out, i was captivated by the head surgery. i was like please show more lol. i want to go into pediatrics because i LOVE kids. i'm a gymnastics coach, and i just love working with kids, making them smile, having fun. my goal in life is to better kids lives here and abroad. I know surgery on kids can be the hardest, especially if you were to lose one, but just as much, it can be the most rewarding (in my eyes).

I know it's kind of silly but I really would love to become a plastic surgeon. For some reason this really appeals to me, yet because my mom freaks everytime I mention this I'll most likely end up becoming a heart surgeon. Not as fun but still pretty awesome.
same person:
I originally wrote how I wanted to be a plastic surgeon and how since my mom most likely wouldn't like that I'd settle for heart surgean. Well, I've decided I want to be a doctor that speiciales in Eating Disorders...if that's a bust then I'm going to be a neuro surgeon! Two completely different fields but both interest me!
--
I used to think Emergency Surgery (E.R.) was my thing, but now I think i will go into Neurosurgery, the commitment is not much of a stir, but the pressure, not really either, but might be quite challenging.

I am definately going to be a plastic surgeon. I love what they do and how they do it. I

Is your avatar a zebra finch? My mom used to have two of those guys.
"Ive 10 years left to go lol, I have decided that I def. want to be an OB/GYN -but on the Optrician side of it."
Hmm... either he didn't realize that OB stands for a word with the letters "ob" in it, or maybe he really does want to fit lenses for vaginas...
Sure is. I've owned them for years!Is your avatar a zebra finch? My mom used to have two of those guys.

I'm interested in being either a Pediatrician or a Geriatrician, cause I love kids.
I think this about sums it up.
This is why I felt confident in college that I would be one of the people who would be accepted to med school.
The same way people double major in Biology and Art History, right? I mean, I get the IM-Peds combo, but when did histology become a medical specialty?I would like to have a double specialty; oncologist/histologist.
I hope this isn't any of you. This kid is going to be a Junior in college, but says he's "studying to be a doctor specializing in neurology and neuroscience research in neurodegenerative diseases".

wow. "pretty little lab coat and smock" I thought it was a girl until I read he wanted to go home to his kid and wife. He's in for a rude awakening I feel.
I have been working my ass off for the last 5 years taking pre-reqs and working full time. About 2 years ago, I actually started telling people that I planned to apply to medical school. They all did the "Oh that's nice" thing in a doubtful tone of voice.
At first I was mildly offended. I got over it pretty quickly and just started keeping my mouth shut or said I was "applying to graduate school".
Reading this thread has reminded me that most of the people who say that they are going to go to medical school are f-ing *****s.
This is the best thread ever.
Boy is he in for a rude awakening when he realizes he's not going to be rolling in it by doing research in neurology, even if he has an MD/PhD.He probably puts CMT after his name on all of his homework or exams
Hi my name is Erika, I'm a 3rd year student at Bastyr University in the Doctor of Naturopathic Medicine (ND) program. Just wanted to tell pre-med folks that there is another option out there for medical school. There are 4 accredited naturopathic medicine schools in the US and two in Canada (check out www.aanmc.com). I was pre-med myself and gave up on going into medicine after getting so disgusted by the exploitation of patients and corruption of the pharmaceutical industry. I found out about naturopathic medicine and I'm really happy. ND's are licensed in about 15 states (more coming), and are accepted by insurance in many of those states. The difference between us and MD's is that we practice personalized, patient-centered medicine, and utilize many natural methods for healing, like botanical medicine, nutrition, counseling, hydrotherapy, etc. I LOVE our medicine!
If you have questions, feel free to message us (or check us out at www.bastyr.edu)
As I was browsing the topics in that Facebook group I came across this post in some topic. I think It might have been "Where Do You Want to Go to Medical School". Anyway, just... lol

Cause, you know, we MDs don't personalize our care to the patient's problems. Oh yeah, MDs don't prescribe "botanical medicine" nor do we counsel patients on their nutrition or counseling in general. Hydrotherapy? Is that like waterboarding?
Where do people like these crawl out of? Must be the same people that think the world is flat and the sun revolves around the earth.
