I know this is totally random and not the best place to ask this, but I'm looking to get in contact with a current Case Western med student. Anyone know one?

I do know one. What do you need? I can ask him and see if he would be willing to chat with you....I am pretty sure he's on SDN too but don't know his screen name.

I'm going to be in Cleveland this coming Friday the 14th and part of Saturday. We'll be on our way driving from NY to Lincoln, NE (long story). Anyhow I had really really wanted to visit Case Western and I had contacted an admissions rep there that I had met previously. He informed me that unfortunately there is some random holiday at the school that day so there will be no tours, no one to talk to, etc. What I was hoping was to find a current student who might be willing to meet for coffee or something just to chat about the school etc. Since everyone has the day off I know that it's kinda slim but I figure its still working asking, ya know? Anyhow thanks for your response either way.

i am going to PM you the super top-secret list of Case student hosts. they are definitely people who are enthusiastic about Case and willing to talk to strangers.

edit: leave it to me to make a grand offer without being able to follow through. apparently when my application status changed, they removed the link to the student host list from my iApply page. i'm PMing you the next best thing.

maybe you could get in touch with the office of admissions and ask them if THEY would forward you the student host list...

Sorry for the late response, but I did email my friend and don't have his new number so I am hoping that he'll email me back. I'll let you know what he says - I really can't see it being a problem since I know that he was a tour guide for med school admissions this past cycle. But let me know if you hear first from nu2004's list.

I am a current 4th yr at Case...can't really chat about any pre-clinical stuff, since that started after I went through, but maybe I can help, or find somebody who is available.

did you ever find someone oneandonly?

 

[oneandonlylo]

nope, I figure I'll just go wander the campus and cross my fingers that I'll cross paths with a friendly student 🙂
