There are spaces, it just doesn't seem that way, but you can park on the side and behind school as well.

I hope so.
I don't seem too convinced by looking at an areal view of the school. There's roughly 150 spots in the front. I don't see room for 300 more spots in the sides and back. Go to google locals and look at a hybrid overview/areal....do the math...it's not even close.

I'm raising this because something has to be done.

I chose this school over other schools for many reasons.

We shouldn't have to worry about silly things like parking.
 
Parking was definitely not a problem at school. That should be the least of your worries... 😉

Ah, I see what you're saying. I pulled up the google earth map of the school and it's an old one. All of the trailers have been moved from our part of the building, and the back has been restriped for cars. Odds are parking will be kind of exciting for the first few weeks (it certainly was when we showed up) but after everyone gets settled in, it won't be a problem. Same goes for the study rooms, tables, chairs, couches …etc. At first it will seem like there just aren't enough, but after people figure out which classes they want to attend and which one's they don't and where they want to study and where they don't, life will be much calmer.

Oh, and don't worry about stressing the little things. It's the last summer that you really get to. Case and point, I'm pretty sure my lease for my apartment is up in the next few weeks, and I haven't even started looking at new places. Am I worried? …naaaaaaa. I'm going on vacation.

plus, maybe you aren't factoring in that the 08-ers will be gone, so between your class and 08s class, the difference is ~55 spots. maybe you should wait to get here before you start getting concerned...that way you can see how much of a non-issue parking is...

oh, and if your mom wanted to come, there is tons of street parking, and also a few visitor spots...

also, why would touro need 300 more spots?

We won't be gone... 😛 You'll see us when we come back for OMM call backs and to take our post-rotational exams/shelf exams...You can't get rid of us that easily!!! We won't be gone until graduation. :laugh:

I think Touro should build a covered parking garage structure to keep our cars out of the sun...Or, redo the facade of the building...


Hey 1hot...I heard what's in the works for your CS class...looks like it'll be more consistent ...rumor has it that Kalekas and Dr. Mac will be giving a lot of the lectures! I think thats good for you all!

I don't know if the school can take having MS-3's around. It might make us actually look like a real live med school
 
mmmwwwwwuuuuhaaahaaahaa! Just when you thought it was over! Actually, we're getting secret tuition reimbursements from administration to torture you guys and make parking even more difficult! :laugh: Maybe well take up ALL the parking and put flyers on all the other cars (j/K)... 😛 😉 :laugh:

Just for that, I just got of the phone with Dean Forman, and sorry to say it, but you guys (08ers) have to park on Gibson now. 🙁 Oh and you will have to recycle 😛 😉 :laugh:

who taught CS?

Actually, Dean Forman must have misplaced the memo from Dr. Bernard Lander, the Founder and President of Touro College, that gave the class of 2008, full reign of the school + dibs on the new secret underground air-conditioned garage parking with proxi card access...oh I forgot the valet service and care detailing 😛 :laugh:

CS was taught by a gazillion of docs, including Dr. Silvers, from the area for us...and a multitude of notes that didn't necessarily correlate with our text.

Dr. Kalekas and Dr. Mac will definitely give you guys a great course. I'm sure they'll be harder on you guys since they know you already and this will be the meat of introducing basic science to clinical science...Anyways, you'll be better off.

So, my adviser left AND second year just got harder...GREAT! 🙄

Don't worry, me and Kubed will take care of the valet and car detailing 😎

Who was your advisor? Silvers?
 
box29 said:

Yep 🙁 I wonder how that is going to affect LORs and the Dean's Letter?
 
It won't...you'll be assigned another advisor. My advisor left after 1st semester 1st year and I was assigned another.

As for the Dean's letter, I know for sure that your clinical evals (from 3rd and 4th year) will play a big part in it. Don't sweat it...

Oh, btw, I prefer Zymol, Lexol, and Meguiar's products for my leather interior surfaces. Anything other than that must be approved by administration. :laugh: 😀

What!?!? Are those anything like 3rd generation Cephalosporins or Echinocandins??? 😕
 
What are you doing? Are you studying pharm?...oh, I forgot, you said you were a gunner... 😛

Ummm, I don't think so...perhaps you should look up the chemical structures and note their MOAs...I would think they're more like Nystatin, who knows...

are you sure your not a sniper instead of a gunner?

Nystatin...psst 🙄 I was thinking much more along the lines of an Allylamine...please. 😴 Are you sure you got what you said you did on the shelf exam? 😛
 
Wow...living up to what you say you are huh...

You're definitely in the running for "student DO gunner of the year" huh? :laugh:

How was GVR poolside?
 
Thread=Hijacked

Cardio, but down the pharm list. Some of us aren't going to learn it until the night before blocks, and you're making us look bad. Box, this dosen't look like studying to me....And isn't this the '10 thread?

Nice. I can get tuition from google earth now.

Good, I'm a little relieved.

Thanks for the update Kubed, that put me to ease.

I withdrew from a certain DO school and I've had jitters since then. 🙁 [I wish I had a twin!]

I was concerned earlier because I figured 135 in our class, maybe 100 prev class, 100 total PA students maybe, 100 from nursing, education, occ therapy, etc, plus eh maybe 30 staff/fac/adm on a given day...that's around 450 spots (not counting the 08ers) and I only saw (as per the old map) 150 spots in the front. But you got the back too then that helps. Kubed's input sounds reasonable to me.

Good point though. I'll be careful not to call certain shots before hand. [I'll take back/edit my previous comments if I find that it isn't a problem.]

Thanks for the input.

I'm happy for now.



Hehehe, there is not at all that many nursing, OT, and education students. I don't think they'll have even that many combined for the fall. Don't worry, it'll all be fine and dandy.

P.s. Just watch out for Kubed...he can get a little crazy...did you see X-men? He's in it... 😉 (j/K0
 
I guess I'm pretty normal stalking the school from old satellite images :laugh:

🙄 😀 🙂

Green Valley Ranch pool for Memorial Day was AWESOME! Me and some classmates sitting in the sun for 5 hours, drinking cocktails in perfect weather with a bunch of beautiful tourists all around us...Not bad! This is before we had a BBQ at Remington (also fun). You guys should definitely google Green Valley Ranch. When you get free time...this will be one of the places you will most likely spend your time. Well, just woke up for the day...have to go take a shower...MAN I LOVE SUMMER!
 
I just checked out UNECOM 2010...1010 posts! I think we can catch'em. :meanie:

Hopefully enjoying their summer... why aren't you studying??? Don't you have a big test or something important like that? 😛

I think we might have scared them away. 🙁

I really don't think he is all that worried after the score he got on the shelf exam. 😱

uhm, YOU 09ers may have (maybe 08 too)... they are just going to have to learn to deal with me since I will be in the class with them 😛 🙄 ok, maybe not. but i imagine most are busy with trips here and there, preparing to move and spending time with family and friends and doing whatever it is that they do.

I really hope they aren't studying... that would be... well.. gunner-ish. 😉

well, box knows i was teasing him... worried or not.... and he is always allowed to give me a bad time...

Napping and killing brain cells. What are you doing with your summer, studying? ... lame

Hi, I'm one of the people still on the waitlist. I was wondering if any of you guys had been accepted off the waitlist or have you all been accepted directly. Also does anyone know what day orientation and classes start. I'm just still hoping for something good to happen. Thanks.
 
i know roger pulled someone off the waitlist last week. orientation starts august 7th. have you called roger and talked to him?
 
Hey, I'm flying into Vegas on Tuesday (20th) and will be in town until the 22nd. I was wondering if anybody on here wanted to meet up for dinner or something on the 21st? Any 09ers who gave me advice on here get at least 1 free drink!
 
why are you coming into town?
 
wow. this place is more lively than ezboard.
 
Just got back into town from Puerto Vallarta... it was wonderful.

I am starting a mixed review session for myself for the next few weeks, so if you have any questions l will be around.

To see you! 😀 No...I decided to go the apartment route the first year and so I'm going to check out the ones on the Touro website. I'm on my way back to Los Angeles (from Cincinnati) for a few weeks before moving to Vegas, so I'm going to spend a couple of days in Vegas looking for apartments.
 
well im around for the next week in vegas if you need any help...
 
Hi everyone, I'm a fellow 2010er. Just wondering, our white coat ceremony is Sept. 17- do you 09ers think that will be around an exam block? My parents want to know how long to stay and visit. Thanks!

i think that might be the weekend after exams...so you should be free. they only have a tentative schedule done right now...and who knows when the official one will be done. i know they have been working on it this week...so hopefully soon. but it should be the weekend after your blocks.

Also, do girls really wear non-racerback sports bras and shorts for OMM lab?

yeah, they are kind of a pain in the butt to find...but we do. it is pretty important actually when feeling the upper thoracics... plus, a certain prof is pretty picky about us wearing the correct dresscode.
