Not a pure review, no. I loathe those. There's a reason they're required in grad school. But let me know if I can be of any assistance. Just PM me. I've been very fortunate to have had my fair share of publishing.

Why do you hate them?

Haha sounds good. I've been pretty fortunate as well, I love writing so my PI just gives me a topic and tells me what direction he wants to go in and I write away. This is my first review though, almost everything else has been editorials. Just trying to see the difference in style I should be using.

That's my floor from this morning, gotta love free printing at work

Hahaha, yes, that's how my floor often looks when writing. I've learned to just keep them electronic. Far easier to use the "search" function to facilitate your writing than sift through paper versions, highlight, and forget where you highlighted. Ah, the learning curve.

I loathe review articles because they're so tedious. You must review for every paper you write; but review articles are your review on steroids, usually encompassing an insane amount of material to deduce an ultimate point. Plus, they tend to be inordinately long when done well and use meta analyses to further bolster your point. Me no likey. I essentially did a PhD research review proposal with the immense support of my neurosx mentor, but was ultimately turned down by the head of psychiatry when he was asked to consult, citing too radical an idea (hence my NS mentor's continued respect and involvement in my research). Let's just say my idea brought back bad memories and stepped on psychiatry's toes. 🙁 Great early political lesson: That polished, final manuscript ready for submission took me 2 years to write before it was essentially thrown in the incinerator. :cry: I think that's where my real disdain lies....

Haha damn. I'm hoping my ideas aren't too radical. But my PI is known for his radical ideas so I'm hoping its expected. Ah well, we will see how it goes. Already have 25+ citations in the first paragraph alone, I can't wait to see the final count.

"You must review for every paper you write; but review articles are your review on steroids" what do you mean by this exactly?

Maybe I'll PM you, I don't want to bore people here.
 
Gah, I'm jealous of everyone for already knowing when they'll quit. I don't even know what school yet and whether or not I have to move cross country. No idea when I'm quitting or if I'll even have time off 🙁

I know I am very lucky to be in my situation but the whole having no idea where I am going to be in few months is driving me insane.

Eleven more weeks of working a job I've grown to hate because it pays the bills. Eleven. More. Weeks.

On the bright side, realizing how agonizing it is to do something I don't enjoy 40-50 hours a week has made me extremely grateful that I'm pursuing something that I love. Not many people are as fortunate as we are.

I have a job that i am less then passionate about... It does suck.

Same! I plan to quit around the first week of July, I cannot wait!

And yes we are very fortunate, idk how some people do it day in and day out for years.

I will probably move on in July. I wanted to leave early, but I need to save up first months rent and moving expenses.

So Gueros probably going to hate this song, but I just thought I'd leave it here to see if Strange would like it. It doesn't hurt that shes real pretty either 😛 [YOUTUBE]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wmHjOCZw43U[/YOUTUBE]
 
I had my first pickle back last week. It wasn't nearly as disgusting as I thought it sounded.
 
I guess Im in the minority but for me vacation begins April 29 at 6pm after my last final
But then a rude awakening in July

Done with work after 1st week in June! But before that I have to finish my project, write a couple of reports and pack 🙁 I don't like moving... Why can't we just have temporary black holes?

I have to have my mom send me tax information for scholarships. She wants to scan it to me and that's fine. It is way faster.

The problem is that she is completely technologically stupid. She scanned the first page as an image and then just kept "scanning" the rest. She sent me the first page, as an image, and said she sent everything. I called and said she needed to send it as a .pdf and she says it isn't possible...

I just used that scanner two days ago to create a bunch of .pdf. When I tried to walk her through it, she got mad and said it doesn't work like that. I said it does and then she hung up on me.

Do you think medical schools will accept my paperwork without my parents' signatures because my parents are completely stupid when it comes to technology?
