stop smoking whatever you're smoking and you'll be good to go

if it's more than smoking, do us all a favor and don't matriculate

+1 If it's marijuana why can't you stop for a month or two? If it's something else it probably wouldn't be appropriate for you to go to medical school.

I am not aware of any schools that drug test you before you enter the preclinical curriculum. But I am pretty sure every school will eventually drug test you sometime during your second year before you go onto the wards 3rd and 4th year. Stop smoking crack

LECOM drug tests prior to matriculation as part of the background check.

Everyone bashes every OP that starts a thread like this, but the fact is that there is a list of schools that drug test at the beginning of the osteo msar book. It being there is kind of weird if you ask me. But it is.

I think we can all agree that pot should be legal. $$$ dictates the status quo.

I don't know why, but this made me lol.

I thought most schools drug test prior to matriculation? LMU-DCOM does for the record.

What's with the casual attitude toward illegal activities?

Nope sorry, Christian here.

Don't know about CCOM, but DCOM requires a drug test before you start school as part of the health forms you have to get filled out/taken care of. But you just go whenever you want to get it done....if CCOM hasn't said anything about it, I doubt they require one, and will probably just drug test you before clinicals. Most schools/hospitals/jobs etc. reserve the right to "drug test at random" though, so keep that in mind.

i appericate all of you who kept to the tread and didnt make some judgement call. by the way marge reading some of your posts you seem real up tight and bitter... easy up.

What's with the holier than thou facade?

No offense, but referring to religion to explain your morals is pretty cowardly and weak. It's like doing community service because your scripture tells you to, as opposed to doing it willingly because you want to help people. There's a difference... just saiyan.

I feel like I have seen this scenario before. Haha.

No worries... I'll control myself.

Didn't the bible explicitly state,"thou shall not torrent?"

If the guy smokes, who cares?

lol, made me laugh too. I was actually being serious. If it's pot, just stop for a while. I'm not throwing judgement your way, just giving you the advice. Gotta play the game if you want in, ya know?

Looks familiar to me too....can't figure out why....

LECOM-Bradenton, and I'm assuming LECOM in general had us do a 10-panel urine Drug Screening as part of our Matriculation requirements that was due on April 30th. So some schools definitely due require it prior to matriculation. Best of luck to everyone!

I see no correlation between Christianity and using marijuana. That is very weak.

Medical Schools, for one.

I know for sure that ours does them at the end of year two, but I'll have to check on if they do it any earlier.
