ok. so listen to this. One of my friends keeps bombing the verbal reasoning section on the MCAT. He got a 5 on his last take. What's his excuse? The AAMC doesn't want any _____(ethnic group) practicing medicine so they change their verbal answers...it's so ridiculous because he actually believes it...

its this kind of attitude that when adopted by the masses starts **** between nations

edit: please inform him that he needs to learn how to read.
 
I just found out that one of my favorite pulmonology fellows graduated from Westernstate College. Oh we've butted many a head before but we just had an excellent talk.


Im going to Estes Park this weekend (for the 4th). Originally I was booked at the Stanely Hotel but after reading some really, really bad reviews, I scrambeled into a 2 bedroom Condo. Now I am booked at both places and the Stanley apparently cant cancel my reservation till the morning. Oiii, I hope they let me out. I've already placed a $400 deposit down. :scared:


Oh, and please dont mind my spelling. Im using IE and we all know that it suxs.

:laugh: or he didn't read enough as a kid?

Unless he's learned English as a second language.

lol@ MB
 
When I was little I wanted to be a farmer or a professional athlete. I wrote an essay about it. Pretty random.

haha yea thats a broad spectrum u got there, guess u'll have to settle for being a doctor.

I do love Ari too. I think he'd be the perfect interview coach....or interviewer. I love to see him shred some 4.0/45 applicant. 😀

hahaha thats brilliant i would love that too.

maybe something like this

good 2 know 🙂

that dude sounds pretty kool. i took my grandma to an eye doctor once and the guy had pictures of him when he use to race motorcycles on his wall. i was inspired.
 
anyway, im out. gnite guys.
 
when i was a kid and ppl asked me what i wanted to be when i grow up, i always answered "a millionaire" and then they laugh and ask how r u gonna do that and i would say " im gonna go to millionaire school" and i remember thinking that that was actually how the world worked lolol
LOL, cuuuuuute!

Okay... my AMCAS needs to verify today. It was "under review" I think all weekend. Let's goooooooooooooo.

Chicklet is in a craptacular mood, very "no"-y today. Too bad we've got her 18 month appointment today and she's going to be even pissier later.
 
MELON FARMER!

I need to call AMCAS in 10 minutes. Now it says they're waiting for transcripts, and the one school where it wasn't required now says not received. It's actually my alma mater, but I went back there after I took a few classes at another school, but all of my classes are on the one transcript. Like 2 weeks ago someone changed it to Not Required for me, and I guess someone changed it back. GAH!

I don't care that it's Monday morning. I need a drink.
 
Fanfriggintastic.

Even though I was told by the registar's office that all of my grades would be on that one transcript, they apparently weren't. My post-bacc stuff is not on it. I am SO furious right now.

I'm making Chicklet some breakfast then we're taking a ride over there. Good thing for me, bad thing for them, that the school is only 10 minutes away.
 
I don't remember her name, but she's got her own desk with her name on it, so I know who it was.

Raaaaaaaaaaaaaaaage.

what up playas, i havent been on here in a year but i'm mad bored at my new internship so i've made my return
 
In other news, you now have a great thing to write about for your pittsburgh "what makes you special?" essay that was just released this morning. ((same one as last year tho))

"I am the lady hulk. You won't like me when I'm angry. Let me into your MD school. The end."
🤣

I am LOLing for real. That might be going into my sig.
 
Well that was pretty painless. I showed up, starting explaining why I was there. I was already ready to insist things get mailed THAT day and that demand that I wasn't going to pay for the transcripts a second time (I don't know if I mentioned this, but I also requested a transcript to AACOMAS that same day and they never got it). Then another woman stepped up and said she'd make sure everything got sent out again, today, and that the transcripts had both sets of grades, from the bachelor's degree and the post-bacc.

She better make good.

Here's to hoping! Glad you didn't have to smash anything.

I was looking at AMCAS and though that I misreported my involvement in something by a year. Then I realized I've really been doing it for 5 years now.

Cool MissB, now I have another reason to want to go there 🙂

I've heard good things about both, especially Carver.

i could say the same thing 😀

yea i've heard good things too...just not a fan of the weather 🙁
 
just got GW today,

when they say what is your most significant non-academic accomplishment
does that just mean "not school related" ?
I made a program for a clinic to use in their practice, is that academic? or is it something else?

That sounds like it would be fine. I guess as long as it's not attached to your grades or something?
 
Flow, thanks for reminding me I need to start on Yale's....
UMich is done and the second essay is being proofed yay!

It took me WAY too long yesterday to get a picture of the correct size and cut it down for Columbia🙁

Still waiting on one more letter ::sigh:: She finished a draft and had it proofed so hopefully she gets the final in this week so I don't have to worry about my files being complete at schools. She swore July 1st, so we'll see. She has had plenty of time. SO mad I assigned the letter to schools before it was in....should have just waited.
 
That "Time to take filling out secondaries" thread is freaking me out.


Please remind me not to read anything but this thread again.

Just curious... i guess i want to know who to be extra nice too should u happen to end up living near me =P
lol i'm trying to learn too, mostly because I want to have an Iron Chef battle with some1, but also because i love good food.

I like everythinggg and a lot of it =)
 
i was at my friends place yesterday and she made me try this Vietnamese dish, it was pork, some leaves, rice powder?, wrapped in a rice sheet or something and then dipped in fish sauce.
it was alright.. but of course i told her i really liked it cuz her mom and dad were standing next to me asking you like you like?!

but that meant i had to have another 1 lol, i quickly asked for a drink.
