    What kind of doctor's bag should I get?

    We have the choice to pick brands, etc. We had Welch-Allen and Littman reps come in. Their deals pretty much beat internet offers - plus that great warranty while we are in school. Several students bought the panoptic, a few second years came in to purchase it, also. I ordered it, then...

    What kind of doctor's bag should I get?

    At my school nearly everyone bought a bag. It is not the typical "doctor's bag" though. They sell one here that looks like a gym bag (in several colors) but is insulated from heat and has a bunch of compartments for equipment, etc. They run inexpensive, around 35 bucks. However, most...

    anesthesia assistant

    Although I'm a MS1, one of my best friends is at Emory right now in that program. There are 27 in his class and he is going through much, much more than we do. First, his interview was holy hell. They drilled him about physics, anatomy, and get this, cockroach physiology. I'm not kidding...

    Med students who are parents - any advice?

    :laugh: :laugh: :laugh: :laugh: :laugh: Swampy/Gator: I know how jealous you are that the girls don't feed you as much alcohol as I get from the guys. (Although I know of one overly, voluptuous one that would be willing...you poor thing...snicker snicker.) Anyway, free alcohol is the...

    Med students who are parents - any advice?

    Mom of three and pleeeze don't preach to me about needing a guy! Not needed! I agree with the bedtime. They are asleep by 8 and I stay up and study. I don't sleep at all or well since the semester started. I don't really study that much though. I wish I could bring myself to actually study...

    What to do for the Shelfs

    I don't know about that. We took the cell bio/histo NBME this morning. It was hilarious. I've had several histo courses and still guessed at half of it! The first three questions were like the MCAT all over again. Guess I'll look forward to Gross in 2 weeks.

    MS1s that HAVE started med school!!

    Well life at South has been fun, but exhausting...and that's only the 3 days of orientation. Like others, everyday was eating, trips, socializing and party, drink, party and drink. Last night we had a club with a floor for just us and second years. Everyone was so tired from the night before...

    What did you eat for lunch during MCAT?

    I had Taco Bell! But um...I wouldn't recommend it...I just happen to have an iron stomach.

    Do Crest White Strips Really work?

    I bought them and hated them. They were messy and took too long with no results for me. I finally forked out the cash for professional bleaching with the Nite White Excel 2 kit. It was soooo worth it! Save your time, spend the extra money and get it done right!

    What to do if your wife is not supportive?

    My personal story does not probably correlate well with yours, however, my husband was not supportive...I moved out last week with the kids, on my own, with my own summer job money, to another state to start med school in 2 weeks. DOH!!! :D
