LOL I'm graduating in may with an M.S. degree, I'm thinking about staying an extra year in medschool to get an MBA or MPH.....just so Ihave an extra degree next to my nameOriginally Posted by Jerry Everyday
I'll be graduating in May w/ my masters. I do want to get my PHD someday but I'm really burnt out from all this schooling.
In general residency interviews are "chill" it's not exclusive to radiology. After all, the programs are selling themselves to you,it's the complete opposite of medical school interviews.Originally Posted by UTVOL23

i think it was the best thing i put on my app! its definitely something that stands out and it started good conversation outside of medicine...one of the interviewers at MSU started talking to me about his game used college football helmet collection and we just had a good time talking about thesteals weve found on ebay and such.Originally Posted by DaJoka004

shoe head Doctors..You actually put that on apps? I steered well clear of that one.
I would agree that residency interviews are pretty laid back especially rads and probably peds too but from my classmates Ive heard some prettyoutrageous stuff for those going into surgery mainly general. One of the reasons Im glad i backed away from ortho is the mentality of some surgeons even thosemost orthopedists are coolOriginally Posted by Hodog16

Three00ZeeX: Congrats on going into ER. It seems like yesterday you were a green 1st year med student!
I finished my pediatric residency last year, doing my first year in pediatric cardiology fellowship right now. Time flies, I was a senior in college when I started visiting NT.
Good luck to everybody.

Don't take your pre-reqs at a community college.Originally Posted by Klipschorn
I'm a little naive on this topic but I decided to go back to community college and major in BioSci. My goal is to be an anesthesiologist. What obstacles should I expect?

I have friends who go to Law school, Law students can afford to go out and party 3 times a week and still pass/do well. I think that should answeryour question.Originally Posted by CJDynasty
So Im not trying to hijack the thread, but Im in my second year of law school and there is the on-going debate with me and best friend about which is harder. She swears Law school is harder than her med school and me vice versa. What's you guys opinion?

In addition to regular med school exams....med students need to take and pass 3 USMLE exams. You also want to do very well on these exams, becauseyour score determines how competitive you are for residency applications. And you can only take and pass it once I believe...you basically have to live withyour score.Originally Posted by CJDynasty
