I am starting to make my preliminary list of med schols to apply to, and I am curious about schools that require a thesis. I didn't think it was much of an issue to me, until I was looking over Yale's information and saw that many students take 5 years instead of 4, mostly due to thesis research. I want to have some opportunity to do research, but an extra year seems like a ton, and i'm not sure if i'd like to be required to do such an extensive amount. however, maybe i'm just freaked out by the prospect of this level of reserach?
For those of you who have already applied, what role did a thesis play in your decisions? what have you learned about it from the schools that require them when interviewing and visiting?
For those of you in my shoes, applying to enter in 2006, what are your thoughts?
