ok, i'm not sure where all this stuff about needing to be a science major comes from. i am a psych major, and i was, in my opinion, very well-prepared for the MCATs. i enjoyed my classes and believe that is what everybody needs to worry about most when choosing a major. do not do chem/bio if...

congrats! i too got the email today for an interview. i was going to call monday, but i guess not?? well...still a nice present.

are you kidding? "Is taking time off to protect your country after being a first class cadet" a bad move??? Hell no. (Don't forget MCATs are only good for 3 years in most schools...so plan well.) damn...silly silly question. ;)

i'll add that my letters of recommendation probably did me some good--one guy has a great reputation and has been my boss the other two i've known for a couple of years and done lots with. if whatchamacallit (sp??) comes through on dinner, he'll be able to vouch for me. oh, did i mention my...

now will you please be nicer to me? ;)

no worries, there. i went in thinking that (aside of course from my personality and royal beauty :cool: ) i was a rather "dull" applicant. I did come from a different country a while back, but have fully assimilated. I have played a bunch of sports (which they actually don't know about) but...

Msax, i know you were kinda joking, but i think what he means is: his parents are already paying for the house, cable, phone, etc. (maybe a little extra food for one more person, but you only buy the basic once :) ) and would continue paying for it all whether or not he lives at home. this...

I handwrote all my apps that were not on the computer. at most, for the essays, if they were required and were long ones, I typed it up on the computer, printed it up and did a fun little arts and crafts pasting job. point is, I don't see that it did anything to hinder my progress--i've been...

jim, i just wanted to point something out: i think it's funny that you read that email and then sat to write a response and wrote it as if the original poster wrote it about him(her?)self. I don't know if the poster will come back and say he wasn't talking about himself because there's that...
