Members don't see this ad.

You do a lot more in those than you do in many volunteer experiences.

I got rank XS, meaning medical prodigy. Does that mean I should shoot for neurosurgery?

forget neurosurgery, you need to specialize in the removal of GUILT

Surgeons who play video games are less likely to make mistakes in laparoscopic surgery and do it faster - it helps with hand-eye coordination.

Holy crap, just checked out the game play on YouTube. Had never heard of that game before.

May have to go buy a Wii now...

I guess that means I'd be a total bada$$ at laparoscopic surgery. Volunteering, athletics, school work aside, I've always set aside like three+ hours a day for video gaming. (no... I don't sleep much)

No one is buying PlayStation 3! Sony will lose a lot of $$$!

LizzyM says you have to be close enough to smell patients.

I wonder if they'll add that feature to Wii...
