davis for me. here's an especially cringe-worthy essay prompt from them:
~~~~~~~
Each applicant brings with them goals of what they want to accomplish as a physician. They also have their larger dreams with regards to what they hope to accomplish in their lifetime. In a brief paragraph, please describe how you would want to be remembered at the end of your life.
Limit your response to 6000 characters.
~~~~~~~
that one's on p. 113 of The Adcom Guide on to How to Torture Premeds (published by the AAMC, of course).
i mean, isn't there something vaguely contradictory of the terms "brief paragraph" and SIX THOUSAND characters!?? as I wrote my vile answer, i kept belligerently muttering "how does yer momma wanna be remembered, ya sick bastards". process is driving me nuts, i tell you.
