If you take a moment to look past the arrogant tone, you can see that this was actually an attempt at helping those who wish to use the option of being "hosted". I am an older student and I grind my teeth daily due to some of the other students who are socially ignorant *****s who don't have a clue as to what etiquette is, let alone how to impliment it. So, unfortunately, I can relate to some of what top3 is saying. I think it fair to say that anyone who hosted an ungrateful knutsack of an applicant would be thinking long and hard about passing his/her opinion of said knutsack on to the adcoms.

That being said, I seriousely hope the OP is reading the responses to his post. This is not the first time he has come across as a total asspipe. Do yourself a favor top3 and drop the top this and that crap. That alone places you firmly in the asspipe catagory which is even behind the knutsacks.

I agree with this post. I'm an older applicant as well, and as a non-trad undergrad I was stunned at some of the inconsiderations of some of my fellow classmates when I would invite them to my house to study. Feet (w/ shoes) on my couch, food all over my floor an furniture, telling me to put my cats away because they didn't like them (not even allergic), etc. I can't even imagine how they would act if I had them staying overnight. I can understand how top3 has come across as a jerk, but seriously . . . if you had someone in your home acting the way some of the people have acted, you'd be pissed too. If/when I get into med school I want to host students too, just to help them financially (because I know I'd appreciate the break). But it doesn't mean they can shat all over me and my house. I think if we can take threads seriously that address what suits to where, and whether or not to send thank you notes, then it's fair to address etiquette (sp?) when staying in a host's home. 🙂

After reading this thread and reconsidering for awhile, I guess it was a pretty bad decision to put the host's toothbrush up my butt, take pictures and send it to him weeks after. Oh well. 🙁

i agree with you. Sometimes I wonder how some people grew up if they don't know basic social etiquette. I mean i'm 21 and have my share of social blunders, but the things you mentioned and the OP mentioned is basic common sense. Whereas I think the OP was a bit arrogant, let's concentrate on the message rather than the messenger; he did make some good points.

Would I need to ask for permission to poop in the toilet?

Its all about common curtosy. If you dont like it stay at a hotel.

They let you in med school though you spell "courtesy" like that? I don't think bad manners at a silly host's place will affect my chances if you got in with such foul English.
