Can all doctors be trusted?

NO

Most of us can be considered trustworthy. I mean we're going to doctors amirite?

I have a high school graduation photo and I look EXACTLY the same (others have said I look the same as in high school). Obviously, the photo was taken by a professional company and looks very good. I'm wearing a white dress shirt with a tie (no jacket). The background is a light-brown color like this one: http://erikpaul.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2011/12/jessica-jensen-professional-portrait-520px.jpg. Does this sound acceptable to submit for secondaries? Does the background have to be white?

Yes, that sounds fine. The background doesn't have to be white. Really, this is pretty simple: as long as you don't look like a dork and your face is clearly visible, you're fine.

What if someone always looks like a dork?

Dorkiness is in the eye of the beholder! Just in case though, I put a cropped picture of my face that was taken when I was dressed to go out, lol.

Dude's prolly made more money banging hotties than most doctors will see in their life. Sometimes dorkiness works out

[thelight02]

which schools ask for a picture?

 

[kpcrew]

How can this be? As I gaze upon this lovely visage, I contemplate how an angel could have fallen from the heavens as this surely can be no mere mortal.

wow I feel dumb. in my apps last year I just cropped out a pic of me from one of my facebook profile pics. live and learn I suppose

After I had submitted my secondaries my boss pointed out that I look like I'm naked in the pic I used.

Applied super late (end of October), 4 interviews, 4 acceptances.

Moral of the story: less is more

Are you hot?

Is it alright to use a picture of yourself outside?

In response to your second question, its best to look professional and meet the specifications of the school.


In response to your first question...yo soy fiesta

Hey! As a fellow female applicant I was wondering your thoughts on the hair situation. I currently have photos now with a pretty serious top knot bun (http://www.lifestyled.com.au/tag/sarah-jessica-parker/) but definitely feel more comfortable with my hair down (super long and blonde). Do you think hair up or down makes a difference?

I don't think it makes a huge difference but the conservative way to go about it would be the bun

Zombie bump.

If a school doesn't designate a size or anything about the photo, is it acceptable to e.g. use a photo of yourself playing an instrument, or doing something else important to you if it's still clearly you?

I wouldn't do it. You have plenty of room in your application to talk about activities that are important to you, keep the photo simple and professional. The only thing they want to see is your face, which ought to take up ~50% of the image.
