-Should I have started studying for Step 1 already? I'm in middle school.

I haven't seen that one recently...but I'm always shocked when it pops up. I'm pretty sure I didn't know what the USMLE was when I was a freshman in college! Who on earth wants to start studying for it before they even take the MCAT?!

They're called noobs.


tsk, tsk.

Oh, also, to keep in the spirit of the amusing thread, here's a funny website:

Or perhaps... n00bs? I'm sure there's a higher order of geekdom that has an even sweeter name for it.

I'm not changing my name to Bacchus. The name is already taken. It wouldn't suit me, anyway.

ACK! Sorry, was skimming quickly before work!! 😳

If you get an A-, you pretty much failed. Why should an adcom member accept you over someone with a full A, considering three hundred and sixty billion people applied to medical school for just eleven spots? A- is the new F.

A- is the new F.

QFT. Apparently over in Baltimore and Cambridge, curing cancer is the new hospital volunteering.

Whichever kind you don't have

Everyone else does
-I'm facebook friends with the entire adcom and their children, rejection?

Inversely proportional to the profile's gpa and mcat.

*Ok, so I'm outing myself as a major dork here, but I took 2 sections of the USMLE practice test just to see what it was all about. I passed (barely). I'm not a superstar, so I think I will skip ms1 and ms2.
