3rd time is a charm! 🙂 Welcome to the best thread on SDN: The Random Non-MCAT thread--PART 3!

This is a place to chill and talk about anything besides the MCAT. 😎

Yes. Mostly just people were harassed by people on SDN and I know people who were "stalked" in real life as well.

And no, pip doesn't count 😉

me too! I'm a huge monty python fan. I'd rather see that over wicked actually 😳 But I want to see both relatively soon.

*singin* We've got magic to do, just for you*/singin* I miss singing. I was rather good at it in high school. I wish I had voice lessons, probably would have gone far with it. That and piano. I just had too many hobbies though. I was the type of girl that wanted to move which is why sports were great for me!

Ok I just thought of something. If I did volunteering in high school ('93-'97) would I put it on my application. It was something I was passionate about (I coached field hockey for the younger girls every fall for 4 years and lacrosse for 2 years). Or would that be too old? I did hardly anything in college. *sigh*

PUT IT DOWN!

If it's something you were very passionate about and involved in, I would put it down. I know a few people who did that and who talked about it in interviews

HOME 😀 Well what used to be my home. 🙁 I still consider it home though. My parents live in jersey outside of philly. 🙂 Born and raised philly girl that is a little, ah, displaced - sufficed to say, at the moment.

Before I met my hubby, my #1 choice would be in the philly/jersey area. I was only going to apply to schools on the east coast. Now I'll most likely be applying only in Oklahoma. :laugh: We'll see when the time comes to apply next year. My hubby is applying to residencies right now so wherever he goes, I go. (and his top choice is in our current location so I'm hoping I dont have to move! I have WAY too many contacts here and opportunities!)

Good question. I pretty much just worked during college. I wasn't sure where my interests laid at that point. I was part of club field hockey my junior year and soph year I was treasurer of my dorm.

You didn't know I've been married 3 times? 😛


lili - did you volunteer while you worked? I did AHA heartwalk and a few other things. I got to row in the Dad Vail Regatta two years in a row for my company. It was a volunteer thing. That was fun.

But I'm kinda happy that I got to see other parts of the country too. That was part of the reason why I DID end up moving. I wanted out of philly area. I had been there too long.

:laugh: There are a ton of cool cities to look into though. I wanted to apply to NOLA and NC schools as well as even a few others throughout the nation. Don't close yourself off. I'm glad I got the opportunity to see what is out there. 🙂
