What Schools Should SDNers Attend?

[QofQuimica]

Members do not see this ad.

Since we're all asking one another where we should go, I thought it would be helpful if we could have a thread where we pick schools for various SDN regulars. If you want to pick a school for someone, or you want to ask people to pick where you should go, feel free to post and ask away. It doesn't matter if that person didn't get accepted to that school, or if that person didn't even apply to that school. You can give a rationale for your decision if you choose to do so, or you can just issue your fiat from on high. You are the omniscient, omnipotent adcom, so you can send your favorite SDNer to any school that you want. The only stipulation is that you may NOT pick a school for yourself. That would defeat the purpose of getting others on SDN to pick your schools for you, right???

I'll start. I am going to send MollyMalone to the University of Michigan, because I think it has just the right mix of good curriculum and social life for her.

MollyMalone: University of Michigan

I don't have any suggestions right now, but I think this is a really fun idea!

 

[MollyMalone]

Heh. One of the only two schools I wish I'd applied to but didn't. Let's see...
I'm going to send mustangsally65 to UWash because of their excellent primary care reputation and their commitment to rural and underserved populations.

Alphabetizing and adding Phil Anthropist. I am going to send Phil to the University of Chicago, because it's a great place to do interdisciplinary studies. Congrats, Phil; you just had the easiest app cycle in history. 👍

Edit: oops, re-adding Timmy.

I don't think Q should go to Hopkins. The Michigan thread would loose its personality without Q and dajimmers. I'm sending them both to UMich. Q can have a scholarship so that she'll choose Mich over Hopkins (or at least post an annoying thread asking us which one she should choose).

I think titoincali and browniegirl86 should go to UCSF because it'll by far be the best experiences of their lives! (Hehe, but no, i'm actually kidding...i think they should go wherever their heart wants to go...titoincali, go to U of Wash because it sounds like if money didn't matter you'd go there in a sec.)

i agree. q should be at yale, or maybe stanford.

edit: actually, she'd probably like the warm weather. it should be stanford with full ride, company car (convertible), and rustic villa/winery. let's see yale, hopkins, or umich top that!

The above got quoted wrong. My response was the winks, not the rest of the stuff. Just thought I'd share.

 

[QofQuimica]

Guju, I am sending you to USF. I know that you want to be in a city, so UF is out. And I just don't see you at Miami; you aren't a big-city kind of girl. Plus USF is very service and clinically-oriented, which would be a great combination for you. 👍

I don't know Zoom-Zoom well enough to pick his/her school. Can someone else pick one?

The Caribbean???

Ok, we need to have a school for megboo, too. Any takers for Zoom-Zoom, humu, or megboo?

 

[Dr. Giggles]

Zoom-zoom, like me, is a numbers guy/gal. We could send ZZ to North Dakota, which has the highest % OOS matriculated/applied of all allopathic schools. I think we might want to seek ZZ's approval though.

If the Caribbean had better schools I would send megboo there so she could live like Jimmy Buffet, but since they aren't, how about Miami so she can chill on the beach?

You should definitely stay in the South. And you are a wisea**, so you can't go somewhere too conservative. Therefore, I am transferring you to Baylor starting for MSII.
