I never thought I'd be one of those people, but...

Seriously.

I never thought I'd get on SDN and make big announcements, but what the hell, I'm doing it anyway.

I am now finished with ALL my pre-med requirements! Took the last 2 finals today (Physics II and Orgo II) and provided I didn't completely blow them, I am finished!

I should also mention that I graduated from undergrad in 1996, and have spent the last 3 years slowly, painfully, taking all the science I never took as an undergrad. It may not always be pretty, but it's over.

Now on to the applications...

Elysium,

Let me be the first SDNer to congratulate you on successfully completing your pre-med requirements! The fun stuff is just beginning...MCAT, AMCAS, applications, money, interviews, etc. Best of luck to you!!

 

[Coalboy]

I did the exact same thing (3 years of slowly doing the prereqs), so I feel for you, brother.

Hey, I hear ya! I graduated in '97 from undergrad and decided to do a masters (MPH) program. I finished that in '99 and have spent the past 2.5 years finishing up pre-med reqs. I am at the end of this years application process- just waiting on that UCLA acceptance?!!. A word of advise- be patient and very thorough as you apply to med schools.

Happy, Happy, Joy, Joy...

Congrats Elysium!

I just finished my last required course also. I thought I was done two semesters ago, but I was short a physics lab! I know that it sure feels good to be done.

Now go have a beer and then start working on those apps!

 

[EpiII]

Many congrats. There is always work ahead of us, so make sure you enjoy the accomplishment.
