this would be nice, except none of our cars have tow bars installed and only one has towing ability in general (albeit only 2k #)
We bought it last year and I highly, highly do not suggest. Waste of money.
I was looking at the services available on uship. Basically it's like truckers who drop their loads in your area need to pay for the trip back so they haul your car. NorCal to Midwest is like 800-1000 bucks depending on where you look.
It totally worked for me that I have been a Steeler fan my whole life and now I am moving to Pittsburgh. Phew...
Same boat here. From what I've heard, don't worry about it for now and look into anki if you've got time.
I think the incoming M1s should contribute to the Medical School Achievements thread. There are multiple achievements that need to be created for M1 year.ITT We post our back to school plans/shopping lists and talk about our feelings.😳
Cold feet, anybody?
Before the craziness starts, I'm still trying to get a few things straight. My school's facebook page is already buzzing with tidbits, specialty club solicitations, random encouragements, intramural sports team promotions, and links to "legal" copies of ebooks.
Also, I'm 95% percent sure that I should be getting some kind of giant white board to do my scribbles and studying.
It's pretty crazy to think about how I'll be throwing all my stuff into a crappy civic and driving across the country to start a new life studying and working non-stop. At the same time, I am stoked out of my mind just imagining all the people I will meet, and the new things I'll see...and cadavers!
How far is everyone along in packing up, finding apartments, getting situated etc?
Is it still free ? I wound up paying like 110$ or something this year.
Free for 6mo for students, only $70 for the year normally, I thought?
I paid as a non student this year,
Me too, it was $70, that's what I meant by "normally"
Depending when your renewal was you may have gotten the prices before they increased them 😉
Yeah, just looked and it's $99 now 😵
Thank you so much! Sorry, I completely missed this when you posted it. I'm going to Rush which is an absolute dream come true. It was my number one pick by several orders of magnitude, so it's funny how life works sometimes. I printed out my Rush waitlist email and hung it on my refrigerator so I never let it go to my head or forget how close it came.
$450?!?!? I'd sell my soul to pay $1000
There should be an option to get the 6 month student Amazon prime (as long as you have a .edu email). I just set up a new free student prime last week (the free prime doesn't have tv included if you want that as well)
I feel the same way (even though I don't live in Cleveland). But it's time.
Wait, can we change them? Because the "automatically sub in an X instead of asking your middle name" thing is really upsetting.
A sizeable portion of our entering med school class seems to have that...I wonder if it's something to do with the timeline of when they register us vs contact us, etc. It's horrible, I loathe my Case ID. I am not an axc123, I'm abc gorrammit!
I'm inordinately upset about the X. Like, I would actually pay them a decent fee to change my Case ID, it bothers me that much. Like if they were calling me by the wrong name for 4yrs (and at a place that prides itself on paying attention to preferred names and nicknames).
