Safe flight home, A! :)


So guys, do you think investing on an elliptical/treadmill for my apt might be a good idea? I'm usually bad about hitting the gym and downtown Houston not the safest for running outside. Plus while I love Yoga and it's great for toning I think I need more aerobic too.

I have friends that did this (but it wasn't in med school b/c they can get pricey). I think its a great idea though. I have exercise tapes I'm going to be doing and supplementing in going to the gym wtih them on days I have class on campus with a gym. :thumbup:

My dad found a consumer reports bargain buy for $400... if I like it I may use the rest of my computer loan to buy it in the fall (I'm going to test it out first, don't worry). Plus they don't keep track of what you spend that loan on - which seems kinda dumb to me.

Hey jlw and meg, how did you set up the 3r? Did you take it timed and with no soluntions?
Click to expand...
untimed (did part of it Xmas day, finished it yesterday). had the solutions available, but tried to be a good girl- kept my wrong answers so as not to skew my score to a 45 or something. :rolleyes:

Well I had 9 faculty interviews. They weren't that great IMHO. I haven't interviewed for a month and was pretty rusty. I don't think I externally showed as much interest in the school as I could have.

:eek: Guess you mudphuds earn that free flight and hotel after all. Did you not show interest because you're only interested in WashU? ;)

beary said:
Yeah, um, let me think about that. NO. :cool:

10 days until the expansion pack comes out! Whole new continent, level cap up to 70, flying mounts, new professions, woot woot! :D

my current location shall remain undisclosed in order to preserve any shred of anonymity I have left.

I will say that the cafeteria food is not all that bad, however my other hospital's is signifcantly better. REALLY good, actually. Who knew.

congrats S&M! Really good school! I'm excited for you! You could do your rotations in my old stomping grounds the previous most dangerous city in america :rollseyes: :smuggrin:


Dude, the practice test took too long. I started just picking answers :smuggrin: Not too bad though but I need to work on content stuff. At least I have an idea of how its structured now. Practice, practice, practice. And now onto studying and making dinner!

I did it untimed, but kept my eye on the clock to "unofficially" time myself. I also had the answers on and some I had to look up since they were a little tricky.

I didn't do it straight through - I did one section per day, and skipped the 2 WS's.
