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

This forum made possible through the generous support of SDN members, donors, and sponsors. Thank you.
Yeah but at least you're not jack of all trades, master of none like i am 😎

That's what I am too. I play a bunch of instruments, and sports, and have done other cool things--but have mastered none to the point of being amazing >.<

Still a lot better than not doing it at all.
 
I wish I had learned how to play an instrument when I was younger. 🙁
 
I find it odd that the pre-med club at my school tries to scare the members out of being pre-med. Gunners at their finest. 👎

hahah I can actually make myself cry. XD
I sometimes feel like I could become anything I want (like a dramatic actress lol) because I'm half skilled at all these things yet I go and be interested in the most stressful one.

If you already have good grades and are involved in some good ECs you have nothing to worry about 🙂😀
 
What do they do?

The meeting I went to they tried to throw out numbers that you need for like the top10 schools for all med schools. Like saying things like if you don't have a 32+ or 1000 hrs or research you wont get into any med school. Silly things like that.

I'm not worried about myself since SDN has properly informed me of things, but I sure feel bad for the freshmen/sophomore that are being fed this nonsense.

Maybe they have good intentions but horrible delivery?
 
Your news just made my day. 😀 So happy to hear things are going so well. Becoming sick earlier got the worst of the year over with :laugh:

Awwww dude you're the best. Yeah, I honestly still can't believe it. I'll be at the med school this summer doing research in whatever I want. Their Endocrinology and Metabolism department looks OFF THE HOOK, so guess what I'll be doing????? Muahahahahahaha.
 
OMG KPAW. CONGRATS! So you are not applying next year though right?

THANKS TOTSSSS! Nope, I won't be applying anywhere!!! I'm totally totally schmotally set on going to this med school: it was the perfect fit for my interests/perspectives on medicine, and their Latino Health program is BOSS. Spanish-speaking patients here I come, hahahaha 😀
 
Congrats!! I know i'm pretty late but this is great news. You will go down in the class of 2017 thread first to be accepted :laugh:Seriously, i'm proud of you 🙂

Thanks bro 😀 You're the bomb!

To the person (I don't remember who!) who asked if it was an early acceptance program: yes, it was an Early Assurance Program. The weird thing is that you can only apply to it if you go to one of ten liberal arts colleges in the US, so I'm just lucky my school happened to fall into that category.

YOU GUYS SHOULD ALL APPLY THERE REGULAR DECISION, GET IN, AND BE MY CLASSMATES OMGGGGGGGG.

Please?

😱

Ok since we are not going to see each other on the interview trail I will visit you someday. Maybe when I need comforting from the scary app process. I am totally applying to that school anyways so maybe I will get an interview there......Heard good things about it.

+1 😀

Congrats again KPaw that is totally nuts!
So how're you getting involved in research there this summer? You're still not attending until the year after you graduate right? (Assuming you're c/o 2013)

YOU TOTALLY SHOULD. Yeah, I didn't apply until I was absolutely sure it was where I wanted to end up. They have incredible community health programs, Pass/Fail pre-clinical, integrated Double Helix curriculum with your Primary Care Clerkship starting your first year/clinical classes starting first semester, amazing International Medicine programs, a year-out academic research/medicine abroad programs that they pay for, Latino and Deaf Health pathways, and just awesome people. And their biopsychosocial approach to medicine is actually the coolest thing ever. It would be beyond baller if you got in and went, too!!

Ah, I never said: University of Rochester Med School! Yep, I still have to graduate and fulfill pre-med requirements, so I'll be legit Class of 2017 (basically I'm not leaving this thread :laugh:)

Honestly, Tots, I have no doubt that you'll get into something akin to Penn/Harvard. You have an incredible application, and your MCAT score is going to be off the charts. I'm sad I won't see you guys on the interview trail: I do have to say though, interviews are pretty fun. Even though it's super stressful, you're INVITED to go see a MED SCHOOL firsthand. I've only ever had two, and one definitely catered to me and one didn't. My favorite question: What's your home life/family background like? 30 minutes later I finished my answer, bwahahaha. They really shouldn't have asked 😳

DUDE YES VISIT it would be so cool to meet you guys!

Hahahaha thanks man, I'm still kind of in denial.
Yeah, I have to graduate first and then attend, but they let you do research for six weeks and take an anatomy/physiology class. If you guys have any questions about what the interview is like there I'll totes mcgoats answer them!!

But anyway, how are YOU guys? GooseWing, mohad-- when do you get your scores back?????? I can't wait to see how ridiculously you guys rocked it.

We get our scores back in 2 days (Tuesday)!

I lost a good hour or two of sleep last night because I couldn't stop thinking about it. I'm definitely more stressed now than I was on the few days prior to taking the test.

The countdown widget on my computer says 2 days 2 hours and 45 minutes remaining :scared::scared:

Fingers crossed!

Not that you need luck...but Good luck! I am sure you will be very happy come Tuesday at 12.

premed clubs are kind of dumb in my opinion. The one at my school makes you accumulate points to be a member. You have to wear your shirt to get more points..

Wow! Ours is just pay $20 and you get a shirt. We are going to set up some tours to some medical schools.

Kind of funny to hear about other Pre-Med orgs

Historical Development of the Bipolar Diagnosis and Treatment Therapies from Antiquity to Modernity

😳 no offense hehe.
 
I don't want to write anymore. I have a 15-page paper and a 25-page paper due this week (not including the one that I'm working on right now). 🙁

Holy crap. What classes are these for?
