I'm really trying to get some non-med school roommates. You definitely want something different when you come home - do you really want to come home and talk about med school all day? And if they do talk about something different - you were probably there since med students all do the same thing for the whole day...
Besides, I'm a bit worried about competitiveness between med students. Sure I don't give a hoot - but they might - which could get annoying.
Peer pressure you'll get from the students in general - you don't need one living with you
😀
I'm actually trying to find other grad students (law / business etc.) to live with. The main reason I
want to live w/ non med students is because they'll have a different circle of friends / having fun schedule. That's always a nice thing to have - you have the option to hang out w/ your friends or theirs!
Besides - if you need the company of med students - go to the library; from what I hear they never leave
