Sometimes I feel like I'm the only one... just curious if anyone else felt like that.
Specifically, I've been disappointed with my classmates. I'm not sure if their mentality is endemic to med school as a whole (ie, a continuation of the premed mindset) or just my particular class. Specifically, people seem very gossipy, very nosy (ie, always want to be in everyone else's business), etc. Even if it is under the auspices of "concern" I feel like it is sort of fake -- people aren't really concerned about you, they just want to find out gossip, size up their classmates, etc.
Anyways, since I wasn't a "true" premed in undergrad (I was a liberal arts major), and I didn't really have any premed friends, I'm sort of wondering if this is "typical" behavior for med students
