just wondering if anyone was doing anything besides stressing about med school... 😀

Actually, I hear there will be a lot of interview questions about the Olympics this time around. ADCOMs want to know if applicants are informed and up to date on current events and issues outside of the medical community. I make sure to get at least an hour of olympics in a day, just to be safe.

I am watching them. Swimming is awesome. 🙁

That is a really good idea. 😱 I don't know how I'll have time to watch everything I'm supposed to for med school interviews. I heard that all med school committees expect us to watch the Kobe Bryant trial too because of the DNA sample's application to medicine.

That's two big steps towards that MD 😉

I love sports; and when it comes to the olympics, forget it the TV is all mine.

This is also an election year. You might want to keep up with that too. "Just to be safe."

you also might want to read up about jenny thompson. i'd expect a few questions about her in an interview. after all, she manages to balance the rigors of olympic training and columbia med school.

aaaaaah. im not even a huge sports fan but i LOVE the olympics. i found myself watching the equestrian events today, and then the syncronized diving. so cool.

 

[G-Dubya]

Yeah, but I'm completly depressed since the USA got OWNED by puerto rico in basketball 😕

if you ask me, there's a small island republic just begging to lose protectorate status 😀

That ian thorpe is fast!

I like watching the swimming the most....

Go Thorepedo! i love him 😍 , and that van den Hoogenband is pretty hawt

 

[generic]

shoot...why is the US getting owned in so many events? But yeah tonight's 200m swimming race was awesome. Ian Thorpe is faaaaaast. Are there any other med school bound olympians? It'd be cool to have someone in your class with a gold medal hanging around his/her neck...

 

[tempstuff2004]

Believe it or not: Thorpe once said he wanted to become a doctor.

On the other note: Go Australia!

Mens gymnastics did good today! Silver medal, wooohoooo. Did anyone see that last Japanese guys bar routine....that release move was just awesome, I couldn't believe it. Those guys definitely deserved the gold, but the US still did great too 👍

I KNOW!!! They made it look so easy! I'm glad our men finally got a medal though. 🙂 Yay!

Actually it was BS. I've never heard anything like that. I just wanted to see if I could get some rage-induced, insano response from someone freaking out about not having watched the olympics and having to catch up... 😀

that was AWESOME!!!!! They made everyone else look like they just started high bar last week.

Has anyone been watching women's beach volleyball? Wow. 😍

I definitely agree with this. Plus, you might want to pay attention to the elections because the person who wins will be RUNNING YOUR COUNTRY NEXT YEAR.
