after reading posts, talking to friends in schools, and reviewing the workload-- med school looks pretty scary.. believe me, i have NO DOUBT that everyone's going to have to work their tails off, at least through the 1st 2 years of school and before rotations, but do people have enough time to blow some steam off and party/unwind?
i know this isnt undergrad anymore, but i've been looking at schools in and out of my home state. I look at med school as an opportunity to pursue the career that i've had a calling for AND to "experience a new part of the country".. my biggest fear is that i'm gonna be so swamped with work that i wont have any free time to at least enjoy/experience my new surroundings and explore the city that i'd be living in..
is the workload bad to the point that you might as well stay close to home, because you wont be experiencing much outside of school anyways?
