any desi pre-meds out there?

This forum made possible through the generous support of SDN members, donors, and sponsors. Thank you.
namaz? lota? there are a lot of Desi people here, but I couldn't even begin to fake for one 🙁
 
nope... there is no such thing as a desi pre-med. (i actually find those ______ pre-meds out there?) posts kinda funny. Maybe one of those "hey, _____ pre-meds, make urself known"

haha too funny. here's another desi to add to the list.
 
I think a better question is... are there any non-desis on this forum? :laugh:
Seriously though, with the term "desi" gaining more and more popularity, don't you guys think it should be listed as a race on surveys? I mean, there's like 5 different types of hispanic races you can check off, and then there's always one Asian/Pacific Islander box. With 1 out of 8 people in the world being of South Asian descent, I think we need our own category.
 
there better be some fine punjabi med kuurdi's in boston...undergrad was quite a struggle in that department indeed.
 
yeah there better be some desi chicks at my med school - undergrad for me was rough as well. :scared:
But I am a brave warrior- I live in Kentucky :laugh:

desi comes from desh (country=hindi word) i think? so hence desi can be south indians too
 
true blue ABCD right here 😀

yeah my bad, i just asked my brother in law, he said that all indians can be desi. it used to mean like old fashioned, but in the US it just means indians in general.

obviously i am a little abcd.

all brown people from the south asian area can be called desi, not just indians

The word "desi" itself finds its roots in villages where people used it in various references (desi hawa, desi ghee, etc etc). Out here in the US however, it has been used to describe pakis/indians/bangladeshis etc etc (sorry if i left out the other major ones).
 
i'm desi too! (a pakistani brownie...)
oh and the UC schools have an "asian indian/pakistani" ethnicity category on their undergrad apps - I guess cuz theres so many of us in the UC system...

Hindu Punjabi, and speaking of religion, they're are also Christian punjabis too, although not nearly as many!
