Hey everybody,

I just wanted to say my goodbyes. I've decided that this profession just isn't right for me anymore. I made the decision to apply to medical school, and I'm pretty excited to say I've been accepted to ZSOM for Fall 2008. It has been great getting to know everybody here.

Here is the link if you want more info. If any of you have been having second thoughts about your career choice - this might be something to look into.

Good luck to everyone in their future endeavors.

I am just wondering, what led you to change your direction in life?

 

[EyeGuy2k12]

I think you should reconsider PGE, however I can't dispute the quality of ZSOM. I am planning to not attend SCCO and to apply immediately to ZSOM.

PGE, I think I speak for the whole optometry community when I say that it is sad to see you go.

GL on all your future endeavors.

Medicine is something I've been interested since I was 7. I was on the fence, wondering if I would be accepted into medical school. I took a chance and applied at ZSOM. They really liked my optometry background because it will make me stand out from other doctors, thus increasing my earning potential - and donation potential as an alum!

This is so a April fool joke.

😕😕

Check out the announcements on the SDN homepage... this is no joke. You too can be accepted - provided your PayPal account is in good standing.

If you go to the FAQ on the website:



Q: Why is the location of your school a secret?
A: Due to the controversial and free-thinking nature of Dr. Barry Zlatko, his life is in constant danger. Forces as disparate as Al Qaeda, the Mossad, the IRA, the IRS and the Elf Keebler Martyrs’ Brigade have worked together in an attempt to assassinate or otherwise verbally harass Dr. Zlatko. The location is released to our accepted students once their first check clears. No guests are allowed on campus, this policy is enforced by ninjas.

wow. this site is getting way to nerdy for me sometimes.

 

[gochi]

Dammit...PGE's status is making me think that she actually is going to attend med school.

 

[alferec]

Wow, prettygreeneyes you really got me going! And you've always been a strong supporter of these optometry forums too...ahhhh! That was a good one!

 

[prettygreeneyes]

The SDN Admins and Mods put together the whole Zlatko School of Medicine page for April Fool's. I wanted to put an optometry twist to the joke. Glad a few people got laughs out of it.

Hope April is going well for everybody so far. Exactly one month and I'm officially a THIRD YEAR!!!

PGE

Closing because April Fool's Day is over... 🙁
