lobster M.D. said:seriously though, where are those pics?
haha sorry lobsterMD and those who asked, no pics esp. after being pounced on by some of you. Maybe when i get into med school i will add to the picture thread ....you're gonna have to take my word for it for now 😉
breck - yes, this is exactly why i posted: to view attitudes of various people passionate about this field. I have to say that I find it ironic that those who are considered most intelligent sometimes can have such tunnel vision (some subjective negative comments right of the bat). But we're all human, led by emotion...Perhaps, this is why I refrain from disclosing this to anyone too often.
As for why I didn't continue with it? Well it's true: you are objectified and criticized on a continuous basis. You become paranoid about getting older. You are surrounded by 2 faced people who are only concerned with what is on the outside. There is no human connection. People call you darling but snicker behind your back. It's a fake world, but without it people would not be so into buying new products, spending money and wanting something that does not really exist which perpetuates the cycle, and heck, money makes the world go round in some people's eyes. Some people fit in, some don't. My personality just didn't mesh in that I don't know how to be happy surrounded by superficial smiles.
kevster - that show made me so happy when it started! Izzy was my instant hero 😀
nibrocli - i looked for those threads. exene doesn't seem to post anymore. ALthough i did read some threads of posters asking about her and she seemed to have disappeared from the board due to negative comments
Again to those with valuble input thanks for the open-minded responses. You guys are gonna be awesome docs because you will take time to listen and understand your patients before jumping to conclusions.
As for the application process, June 1st is around the corner hence the timing of my post. I haven't taken the MCAT yet (August!),and am finishing pre-reqs in the summer, but my premed advisor gave me the option of filling it out early and sending grades/scores in as they come.
So I've decided that I won't put anything on the actual application about the modeling, but I will address it honestly if asked at interviews.
