Do medical school admin committees care if my close relative who is a physician has really bad reviews online? Some online investigation would quickly reveal the relation.

Thanks

Why would medical schools investigate on your relatives?

Because a common notion in preallo is adcoms are busy swatting flies in the air, so they can use this time instead by analyzing every applicant's family members.

Not only will they find out about your relative and penalize you for it, but they will carry out a complete, in-depth investigation of your ancestry going back several centuries, as well as a gene by gene analysis of your DNA. I'm afraid you're doomed.

How would they know you are related? Lots of people share last names so you can't just go making assumptions about two random people.

seriously no offense to the OP, but remember these things are applications. they don't care or want your life history. you're applying for a job.

You're doomed. Enjoy the caribbean.

Ok makes sense. Good responses everyone lol. Just wanted to be sure in this brave new world of the internet.

This OP. If you lineage hails from Europe, I hope for your sake your ancestors were at least patricians in the Roman hierarchy or DO is the best you can hope for, and even then they only take equestrians at the very least.

Uh oh. I heard one of my ancestors from the 1400s was a bad farmer. Guess I gotta apply Caribbean now.

 

[thenotoriousbig]

ok now you are beating a dead horse

 

[thenotoriousbig]

pretty funny though.

Yawn



I'd be more worried future patients confusing you with your relative. Better change your last name to be on the safe side right?

Ain't nobody got time for that.

Is your relative Dr Kevorkian?

If not, you're safe.
