Class of 2017!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!

This forum made possible through the generous support of SDN members, donors, and sponsors. Thank you.
You are already gonna start writing your PS???😱

Gunners gonna gun 😛

I need a PS for my LOR writers. I also anticipate it taking a long time for me since these types of things take a long time for me to develop. I just plan to spend a little bit of time over the next couple months. Like 1-2 hours a week not like my whole life writing this time. I think it will be better this way. I also like to be prepared. Not taking a year off for nothing 😀

If I was going to gun you would see: Sabotage other Pre-meds on that schedule.

👍 i needa start writing one as well👎 idk when but gots too :meanie:
 
My PS was written months ago. 🙂

I've read tons of them now so if you want me to read any of yours let me know! 🙂
 
Sooooooo update on my life: I've been bedridden for, like, 3 days with some unknown horrible illness, and my doctor thinks it might be mono. Getting tested tomorrow. I feel horriblesauce 🙁🙁🙁🙁🙁🙁

I actually have a draft of my PS written, I have no idea how much of it is getting cut, haha.

Get better! I have never had mono, but I used to work at the College HR office and three people there got it within the last week I was there.

Are you joining the navy? DID NJROTC in hs and loved it 😍

I wish I could have done that. We didn't have any JROTCs at my High School and we only have Army ROTC on my college campus.

Thanks! I love A&P 2, my professor is awesome this probably the only class I don't mind doing honors in just because of how fun she makes the class. I took her for A&P 1 and so far that remains my favorite course I've ever taken.

I had the same thing for my AP1 and 2 courses! Though, I have to say I learned more and paid more attention in 2.

Amazing. This is the idea I need to steal - so it is now stolen 😀

We know you're not a gunner, tots <3 I'm sure you're gonna write an amazing one. Be sure to let me read it 🙂
 
Time to get the ball rolling...starting next week 😀
 
Now that my MCAT is behind me it is time to start drafting the PS. Must have a solid draft by Halloween.

And I thought I was a bit over the top LOL. I'm drafting my PS during winter break and writing my activity descriptions.
 
Think I'm mostly moved in. My room is quite bland. Everyone has more stuff than me. And my poster of "Three Worlds" by M.C. Escher keeps falling down. And there's lights outside my room that make it feel like day at 3AM. Gonna try to run and lift tomorrow morning before I have classes! But apparently it's raining as well. /complaints

What's everyone else up to?

Haha! I was about to ask everyone about their timeline like this and the next page i found yours. although a little disappointed about the size i am able to make it out a bit.

could everyone also post what kind of timeline they will be following?
for me:
sept-nov: chillingly review for the mcat, draft PS, EC descriptions, connect/update with professors

nov-jan: intensively practice the mcat, polish PS, ask professors for LOR

Jan/Feb: take the mcat; wait for mcat; research schools

I was actually pretty productive so far today. I went running this morning even though it was raining, I lifted, and I went to my classes. I'm still working on getting my room together a little more, and I already have a lot of homework. Gotta read an 80 page book for Friday. :laugh:
 
Isn't it weird that I'm already working on the second draft of my PS? I was bored a few months ago and wrote a reasonable draft. Then again, I am a writer so it's what I do. I may update it if I encounter something significant enough to add in, but I don't see my attitude on medicine changing all that much within this year.

My problem right now is that it isn't long enough. It's like.. a page and a quarter. But I enjoy being brief and to the point.
