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

This forum made possible through the generous support of SDN members, donors, and sponsors. Thank you.
88 students. It is even shorter than it seems because there is a weekend there where one day is white coat and the other day only has activities for a fraction of the day.

Maybe that's why it's so short? I'd imagine icebreakers/teambuilders take a bit longer when your class is, say.. almost 3x as big (in my case). 😛

I don't know. I would prefer that over 3 long days of orientation. I feel like a ton of the stuff we go over is going to be lost to the anxiety of it all.
 
So I finally got the nerve to do the AAMC Medloans calculator... Total payments are prob going to be approaching/mebs exceeding $400k. WOOT!

I need a drink. :laugh:

EDIT: Well, probably won't be that high since I'm not taking out the full COA like I calculated... :-/

I moved into my place yesterday! Orientation July 31...classes August 7th! So crazy
 
Few weeks till orientation and classes. I've been feeling sentimental and watching shows/movies from when I was a kid, i.e. Arthur, the Parent Trap, Rugrats 😛
 
Dude, I still watch Arthur... lol... no jokes.

I love Arthur.

At least you haven't been watching Pokemon, The Nanny, Full House, or Sailor Moon.😳
 
Halfway through orientation. I'm tired of the talking already, but also scared to start studying.
 
Anybody know of any good budgeting apps that let you keep track of expenses? Trying to have some semblance of financial responsibility in med school.

My school gave us a neat little excel spreadsheet that I used....maybe quicken or something? Idk...
 
I can't wait for internet to be installed. I have to rely on 3G from Virgin Mobile on my crappy phone and it sucks.
 
Who's Arthur?

Mint is pretty legit!

Mint has ads. Personal Capital doesn't, has the same features and more, is free, and looks slicker.

I can't compare the two as I've only used mint, but mint is free as well and the ads are more like financial hints rather than full blown ads. From a quick glance it seems like mint is the more popular software with 8k reviews on the App Store compares to the 1k of personal cap. I'm sure both will do whatever basics you need though and both come highly reviewed.

One week from today I'll be taking my anatomy final, and then two days after orientation starts. Lol
 
School has been great so far
So much to learn but it's all good

But talk to me in October and then we will see
 
It's sad to see this thread starting to die out... 🙁

On the plus side, it will be much easier to follow in the future.

Edit: accidental top!

It was bound to happen sooner or later 🙁
 
I'm still here for two weeks-- I'll just be having a conversation by myself in this thread, I guess.
