Class of 2014!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

This forum made possible through the generous support of SDN members, donors, and sponsors. Thank you.
I just churn out my canned and ready-to-go answers. IE) I love the diverse and the structued way you teach the curriculum, lectures, small group discussions, PBL, individual instruction. I want to take advantage of these different methods so I can learn as much as possible. I am enamored by the early clincal exposure that FIRST-YEAR students get at your school. I am impressed by your school's commitment to patient care and clinical opportunities for your students.

👍 sounds exactly like what i plan to say at, well, every school :laugh:

It's generally not a good thing when you have to reassure people that you aren't crazy :laugh:

qfmft.

Morning peoples. Who's ready for this week?

me!! two round-trip flights from NYC-->BOS in 6 days! ready, set, go!

umass tomorrow. uber excited.
 
You people get up too early. But so do I...

1. east. freaking. coast. why do people in this thread have such a hard time understanding that? 😎

2. some of us are not in college anymore. and have jobs. that require us to get up at normal hours. personally, i don't think getting up at 7:30 is getting up "early."
 
Morning peoples. Who's ready for this week?

Not me! First interview is this friday :scared: I won't be getting back until Sunday and then there's my first Biochem test on Monday.... Since we're behind in class...I'm assuming my Biochem teacher is going to try and lecture about 3 chapters in two days.... YAY! 👍

😡

Well, we'll see how this goes...
 
Morning peoples. Who's ready for this week?

Tough week ahead. Slept in today and going wakeboarding later. Basketball game tomorrow. Golfing wednesday and friday. Watching college football/tailgating saturday. Flying to Vermont on Sunday for my interview Tuesday. Really rough schedule.
 
Mine's tomorrow.

GOOD LUCK WITH INTERVIEWS THIS WEEK EVERYONE!!!

12h drive. Starting........Now.

Dude i hear ya. I drove from South Florida to D.C. this past week, I drove back straight 15 hours the day before last. Drive safe
 
Morning peoples. Who's ready for this week?

I was. Most of the people in my lab who knew Annie Le are out of town for an Orthopaedics conference with the exception of a few who knew her very well. Annie worked for my current PI back in 2007 and this place is just a little depressed right now to say the least.

In the mean time I've got to get my work done to leave for GW today (interview Tues.) and then on to a Wednesday Wake Forest interview. I'll be back on Thursday but I have a feeling things around here just won't be the same for a while.

Sad times.
 
Crappity crap. Baylor can't give me a student host. Yay, I have 3 days to find a hotel!!! 👎

I guess I could always stay with my godmother, but she lives like 30 mins north of Houston - that would probably be a bad drive in the morning with traffic.

So how did you people that did the Priceline name your own price thingy get the Marriott or other TMC area hotel for like $45/night or whatever?
Maybe I'll just drive back on Friday night instead, just to save $$$.

haha, first i have to say i have no sympathy for people with interviewing complications. just jealousy. 😉

but i love priceline name your own price. LOVE IT. there's no guarantee as to which hotel you'll get. you pick your star level and area and enter a price and it's like a bid which any of their participating hotels can accept if they choose to. i think they do a good job monitoring their participating hotels, because i've never gotten a bad one. but if one person got a certain hotel for a certain price it's likely you'll get the same one. but you better do it soon or you wont be able to get one at all!

anyway good luck and be sure to enjoy and not take it for granted. 🙂 i tell everyone i don't believe in top choices but . . . if i got a Baylor invite . . . it would be beyond amazing
 
Dang I need to find student host really soon for Downstate.
 
but good luck to both!!!

pretty cool article on nmandi

ALAMEDA, Calif. -- Of course he's a little peculiar. He's got rapper Ice Cube waiting for an autograph, the Beatles locked into his iPod and Al Davis on the brain. He doesn't even know how to treat himself. Nnamdi Asomugha signs a $45.3 million contract, one that makes him the highest-paid defensive back in NFL history, and as far as anyone can tell, doesn't spend a dime on bling. He still drives an old, pristinely kept 1997 Nissan Maxima. Ain't broke, Asomugha says, don't fix it. Write that down. It might be the only time the Cal-Berkeley grad, who earned his business management degree in four years, uses poor grammar.

Asomugha is the best cornerback in the league, period. No one comes even close. The only bright spot in that franchise.

its too bad his talent is wasted on the trash that is the raiders. He should force a trade to a real team lol.

yeah! seriously, that was harsh. it's fine though, i have no pride, just desperation. (although now if i cross his path at an interview maybe i'll trip him.)

Bears lose injured Urlacher for season

well that's just awesome. is that why my neighbor upstairs was yelling and screaming during the game?

I do apologize mary (a few posts above). I guess if I get tripped during an interview, I would have met you in real person 🙄

no -- that's because Cutler threw 3 interceptions in the first half against the Packers last night...🙄

twas not a good day to be in Chicago
 
Good lord I don't visit the thread in several weeks and now it has over 500 pages :scared:

no really it's ok. I see how the way i worded it could be misinterpreted by all the people who post on this thread . . . i think the average # of interviews for people posting in here is like twelve 🙄

my time will come. eventually. 👍
 
I'm with ya Mary Lennox... still absolutely nothing from any school besides a hold from GWU. Hoping that this changes sometime this week.
 
does wilsonfan frequent this thread??? he/she sent me the most bizarre PM...
 
Question: is it possible to get any research experience as a non-science major?
