How deep do medical schools go with respect to looking at your Facebook, the type of things you post, etc.
I had some pretty stupid days in my past. Like really stupid. I just turned 20 last month, too, and I still think I'm going to laugh at my 20 year old self when I'm 24. Anywho, this was garbage I posted probably on some random FB group like a news source, etc. or some random media page. At the end of the day, I was an idiot.
You know that phase that some people are young have when they think they're a revolutionary thinker or people give a digestive excrement about their philosophy? Yeah, being good academically didn't stop me from being that stupid socially.
I was going to deactivate all social media/digital content that displays personal information and stay idle on the internet in every way possible from the day I apply to medical school until I got the acceptance letter and accepted the school I want at the end of it all.
What do you guys/gals think?
Edit: What I said wasn't super stupid or something that was morally wrong (taking morality to be the day to day US layman set of guidelines. It just looks weird and embarrassing. I'm finding ways to delete my e-trail or mitigate it). I'm just hoping any displayed maturity I have in ECs, LORs, research, and interview composure would establish my maturity as a candidate.
