I'm just wondering when everyone else starts classes.I'm going to Wake Forest and orientation starts July 29th and classes begin August 5th.Isn't that a little early compared to most medical schools?Pls let me know when other schools begin.

Penn has orientation Aug 14-16 or so. I believe that classes start the following week.
 
University of Miami has orientation between August 7-9, and classes start on August 12.

UF has orientation Aug 14th-16th and class starts the 19th

Finch/CMS has orientation the whole week of July 22nd and class starts July 29th <img border="0" title="" alt="[Eek!]" src="eek.gif" />

Temple has orientation on August 28th

I think BU starts classes the first week of september <img border="0" title="" alt="[Eek!]" src="eek.gif" />
 
Dook's orientation is from Aug 5-9, and classes begin Aug 12. Though there's a camping trip from Aug 2-4 :clap:
 
TCOM orientation is july 29 and classes start on Aug 5
 
I suppose i shouldn't feel too bad.I was thinking Wake was the only school starting in July!I'm trying to have as much fun this summer as possible and i wish we started mid-August like most schools!!!!!
 
Wow everyone starts really early. At Yale orientation is on August 27-29 and class starts September 3.
 
UNC has orientation on August 13-16, classes start on the 19th.
 
Wayne State Orientation August 5-9, White Coat Ceremony August 10, Classes start Aug. 12
 
We start kinda late too... orientation on Aug 30-31st, (no white coat ceremony) and classes start Sept 3rd.

I'm assuming that all schools have nearly the same amount of class days, so I guess most of you will finish in the spring before we do. Not that big of a deal I guess, except that you'll have more time to study for the USMLE Step 1.
 
Hopkins orientation is August 29th and school starts the day after labor day. I believe Chicago beats all of us in lateness: Pritzker orientation is in mid-september and classes start in late september. Pritzker gets their white coats during orientation, but at Hopkins, you have to pass your first year before getting yours. =)
 
Hopkins2010,
Yeah, we have almost 2 months to study for the USMLE. Also, the curriculum at UM is designed in a way that you can begin to review for the USMLE as early as January (we finish the science courses by December of the prior year). From January to May (when classes finish for the second year), the class is presented with weekly cases that serve to review all of the material that we had covered since school started. So, there is plenty of time to study for the USMLE, which is pretty sweet. :D

•••••That's because we had this same exact thread last month with a loooong list of every med school date. :wink: Maybe someone can find it so we don't have to do it al over again.....
 
woah......Foxy woke up on the wrong side of the bed today...

lolol...just messing with ya.

Well...Excuse me! Just thought I would help out and do something productive. Honestly, I don't understand why people feel the need to try to hide their rudeness by putting a :wink: afterwards. If you want to be rude, go ahead. It doesn't make your post look less rude, it just makes it look like you don't have enough balls to be rude in the first place. So, GATC, I agree. She definitely woke up on the wrong side of the bed today. I mean come on, someone else tries to do something productive for once on this website and gets slammed for it. Whatever. :rolleyes:

GATC just interpreted the entire situation wrong and now it's getting completely blown out of proportions. But, please continue the list. I'm sure alot of peeps, who hadn't seen the earlier thread, are benefitting greatly from this thread.

Well I do hope that FOXY has NO BALLS. After all she is a SHE :wink:
Lets calm down guys I don't think she was being rude she simple responded to your remarks. Matter of fact that is exactly what I would have said in reply to your comment about being surprised that FOXY didn't get to alphabetisize first. That comment was uncalled for and ridiculous. If however you expected her to take your snide comments as a joke then you owe her no less courtesy. Leave Foxy alone, she's done no wrong (at least not beyond what you did)
Cheers
 
zealous: I'm sorry for being rude...and it was nice of you to compile the list. I was being snotty b/c I'm frustrated that the search function makes us do unnecessary work :p Soooo i apologize for taking it out on you. I hope you can forgive me :)

And, the purpose of the ( :wink: ) is to soften comments, not to hide anger. That's all I was trying to do.

lo siento <img border="0" title="" alt="[Frown]" src="frown.gif" />
 
Foxy admits to being rude to an SDNer! <img border="0" alt="[Wowie]" title="" src="graemlins/wowie.gif" /> I completely retract my statements to zealous. Down with Foxy! Down with the biotch! :wink:

Haha. Let's duke it out Foxy. We haven't gotten into a mix for a while. Last time was when you threw me a vase for dissing UF. :D By the way, I still maintain that UF sucks! :p

Oh, I see. Now you wanna get personal. Foxy sucks!!!!!!! Take that girl. :p (gremlin's computer was aimed at Foxy's head) :p :p :p :p :p :p :D
 
Well Zealous, I believe I owe you an apology too. I guess it is pretty difficult to tell what people are really trying to say when you only have written text and graemlins at your disposal. Once again, I'm sorry Zealous. Next time I'll choose my battles more wisely.
Cheers
 
thank you for sticking up for me quake :) I didn't think it was that big of a deal, but of course I apologize if I offended anyone. I didn't mean to....except for Canes! hahaha!
 
WOW!All i wanted to know was when classes start and i get that plus a LOT more.You guys are hilarious!Can we all get along!!!

No problem Foxy. Your honesty is even more admirable. I'm still a foxy fun. :D
Kudos on the Florida acceptance.
Cheers
 
Foxy...I accept your apology and apologize to you as well. :) I can't stand it when people are rude to me so if I detect even a hint of sarcasm I am quick to give it right back. I just remembered some advice I had once seen someone post and that was to not take too seriously posts that are added in the early morning hours. I just reread your post and today it doesn't seem so mean so, I'm sure I was just blowing off steam also. I've read a lot of your posts and I know your a sweetie and everyone loves you. I guess that's why I was so shocked that your post was so "matter of fact." Anyway, glad we made up because I didn't want to have to bust out my "Come Mierda!" or J#nga! :D :D :D and actually mean it. Take care Foxy.

Quake...Good thing I read your other post 'cause I was about to reply rudely to you saying my comment about "being surprised Foxy didn't get to this first" was uncalled for and ridiculous. How is that comment mean? All I meant, and I meant it with sincerity was that Foxy always fixes posts and compiles things so I was surprised that she didn't compile this one first. The only reason I wrote it is because I've seen so many other people say the same thing when they get to the housecleaning before Foxy does. Everyone knows that Foxy posts about 50 posts a day or more so I was really surprised that I actually got the honors of doing the compilation. I didn't mean to be rude and apologize if it came off that way. While I'm at it, I want to apologize to everyone out there who has to read this long a$$ post. SORRY!! :D :D <img border="0" alt="[Laughy]" title="" src="graemlins/laughy.gif" /> <img border="0" alt="[Laughy]" title="" src="graemlins/laughy.gif" />
