This forum made possible through the generous support of SDN members, donors, and sponsors. Thank you.
I don't know, I'm in upstate NY and they're saying that we're getting tropical storm-force winds and some pretty major flooding. Not to mention NYC. Doesn't look too good.

I'm also majorly freaking out MCAT-wise. I haven't studied enough in the past few days, and I really need to take AAMC's 10 and 11.

you can do it!! 😍 i believe in youuu!!!!!!!!
 
ARGhh my mother is so ****ing annoying!! so she's constantly pointing out that i'm 'fat' (along with my grandmother) and tells me I need to go on a diet..and this is seriously affecting my sister! she's only 7 yrs old and she's like "I need to go on a diet, and i'm fat" 😡 grr its one thing to call me overweight, but dont f*ck up my sister's mentality at that age!!!!

I'm sorry ;/ parents are def frustrating. My parents are annoying when it comes to the classes im taking for med school and the whole process. They think im taking the wrong classes and im wasting money and they think ill be a shoe in for med school when in reality its not easy and i dont even have my 'final' gpa and mcat scores etc..
 
californians: anyone down to go see cirque de soleil? 🙂

he use to always say i understand you need physics but you don't need chemistry....lmao! if that was even true why would...physics > chemistry....

its really frustrating

:laugh: omg I know right?!

lmao at least your parents understand you need to take science classes.

(my parents) They don't even know what my major is.

I can't wait until I have to explain to them what the MCAT is, what AAMC is and how I need their money to pay for applications/interviews. :meanie:

I tell my parents that I'll probably move out when I go to medical school "ohhh nono dooont vury, ve follow you! you become duuktor ve come!"

I told my parents I'm going to the carib just to get away and they were like...where is that? 😛
 
I told my parents I'm going to the carib just to get away and they were like...where is that? 😛

hehe i informed my parents that carib and international schools are bad to go to and i remember a while back i was against D.O schools and I told my parents that they were the "rejects" but now i bring up that i wanna apply there and they bring that up ;p

back then i was naive :laugh: I'm surprised they remembered something 👍
 
you got loans? i get jack 👎



lookin for a job?

No everyone applies for loans for med school but the government/banks don't offer subsidized loans to any1 anymore for some reason. ;/ That means we can't get a loan that accrues interest after school, every loan we get will accrue interest while were in school....that's gonna be a lot more debt.


and yea ima apply for 24 hr fitness, hopefully my credentials aren't too overqualified:laugh: lol jk

My mom always forgets what I'm trying to do and the process. It's like...what are you studying for? Oh the MCAT, okay. Two days later she'll ask again 🙁

My parents won't (can't) pay for any of my undergrad. I'm paying a pretty penny to live on campus this year, but I just had to do it. 🙁

lol, Caligirl, did they really say that?
 
when my parents ask me if I have a boyfriend..

me: 'no'

mom: 'vennijann, rr you a lesssssbbeeannn!?"
 
i dont tell them things anymore :lame:

same...but the only thing that bugs me is that im sorta rushing and my parents don't really realize it.

i honestly kinda wanna slow down but in a way i dont? 😕 anyways if one of my prereqs don't work out these last two semesters then im screwed and will have to be class of 2018 lol :laugh: I mean im planning on getting my bachelors in 3 years, if something happened and i have to wait its all good.

but i wouldn't mind because again im 17 and a junior....

ppl need to be smart about their education and how much they spend.

-went to CC in the beginning, finished in a year saved money.
-transferred on scholarships and grants, im paying like 1 grand for all my classes at the university
-staying at home, commute to school, saves $10,000+

its all about saving up that money for med school 👍

Imo it doesn't make much of a difference in the long run if you're going to a state school. Rather take it slow and relax a little, but that's just me.
