The official "rate the avatar above you" thread

[BlueLabel]

In this thread, rate the avatar of the person who posted above you. Ratings are X/10, conclusion (would not bang, etc) optional.

In order to keep this thread relevant to preallo, posters are encouraged to include a random fact relevant to the application process.

Since I'm the OP, I'll rate my own avatar;

10/10 would drink, excellent avatar choice!!

Random application advice: I recommend the Barron's MCAT prep book for condensed content review.

Let's hear it, SDN!

Advice for recently accepted applicants: have as much fun as you possibly can before starting medical school, and avoid all things related to medicine.

Wat?/10 If the guy in that picture is cooler online, I dread to meet him IRL.

I'll apply after I graduate, but I'd say it's important to assess one's maturity levels at regular intervals to determine when you are ready to move forward with each important part if the process.

Oh, forgot the tip. Be yourself and really come up with interview answers that are true to you and not just some B.S. the admissions committee wants to hear.

[nemo123]

9/10 cool avatar.

Tip: If you're going to take a gap year, find a boss who is supportive of you going on interviews! Otherwise your life with be full of a boss who stalks you all the time and asks you when you're going to stop going on interviews (speaking from personal experience lol).

10/10 (All Pixar movies are great!)

Tip: Spreadsheets. This was passed on to me by a current MS1. Makes it easy to keep track of secondary websites, usernames and passwords (especially when they give you autogenerated ones that are just random strings of letters). Spreadsheets are also a great way to keep track of whether a particular school accepts pre-interview updates, whether they are okay with questions about your application status, whether they prefer updates to be via email or the application portal, and so on.

Haha yes it is a doctor puppet. She was my "twin" for the masquerade concert my students gave this year. The kids loved the puppet lol!

 

[ZeaL6]

2/10 -5 for breaking the rules with no tips and Aerus 9/10 idk what it is but it is somewhat of a vex.


Tip: Make sure you read first aid as a premed. Also spend more time studying for the MCAT than looking on SDN to find out how to study for the MCAT...
