Withdrew my spot today. GL waitlisters
I submitted my application on Monday and got in this Wednesday. Definitely spots open.
right-o. his point i believe was regarding people who finish in one year while applying that year, with the intention of going to med school directly afterward.Are you sure about this? I thought if you applied before the program started you wouldn't get a letter, but after one year you could get one from the dean.

Just got my schedule! Biochem monday, wednesday, thursday, friday.
Physio monday wednesday friday,
and something called "Rel MED Sci" (what's that?)
And which track does this mean I am?
Where did you go to see this??

I believe there are no "tracks" starting this year & everyone has the exact same schedule... but not entirely sure if those plans went through or not. Rel MED sci is your Thesis credits, for which you get a letter grade if you do a lab thesis and no grade if you do a written thesis.

Ah I just got accepted two days ago as well and I'm heavily considering *not* going. CRAZY RIGHT?
I'm from San Diego, CA and moving to Boston blows my mind. I don't even know what I want to do right now. I've already submitted my apps for AACOMAS and AMCAS this cycle. My dilemma is that if I can get into a DO/MD this cycle, then going to Boston would be a waste, but if I don't get in this year, then I definitely should have gone to BU. ~$60k more debt also makes me cry.
3.14 cGPA, 3.1 sGPA, heavy upward trend last two years (3.2-3.9 range), 33Q MCAT, Chemistry Major. (looking at DO schools, but did MD just on the off-chance)
I still have 7 days left to decide. I'm going bald ripping my hair out and having many sleepless nights.

So should we register for an elective this semester? Or are these classes enough. I know we are supposed to take 12-16 credits a semester.
when I was in the program most took Histo as an elective. You should try to do that but if you don't want to do histo do Pharmacology.
To people in the program or grads.
How doable is it to get a dual degree in 2 years? Would you recommend it? How about a concentration?
I'm sure they'll tell us more about the lab thesis later but I'm trying to get a general understanding of how it works. How do people usually go about finding a professor for the lab thesis and is it difficult to find a paid position?
How long does an md/mph program take? If you did the library thesis and finished MAMS in a year (without applying before it started), you have a 'gap year' so MPH would be a good idea?2. If you really want the MPH, remember you can also do the dual program in med school as MD/MPH programs so if u think that will be more feasible I'd go that route.
Out of curiosity if you don't mind my asking, how come? You got into med school somewhere? Or into another MS/postbac program? Just curious.
Goodluck with your future plans.
A fellow MAMS student and I are looking for two more students to fill this apartment http://www.bostonapartments.com/homepage.php?cli=160&ad=7251675 . If you're interested send me a PM
I've been told its similar to our schedule that we had by people on here who have already received schedules.
That depends. Do you want to go to med school, and do you want to maintain your sanity?To people in the program or grads.

Is anyone, preferably a male, still looking for a roommate for the upcoming 2011-2012 school year? I want to be as close as possible to maybe even in Harrison or James court. PM me if interested
I read on an old thread that admissions for BU MAMS is rolling for fall and spring. Does anyone know if it's possible to start in the spring? If so, does this help you avoid an extra year? Thanks!
