Will I be able to apply to medical school? Thank you for your help.

For the schools you mention probably not. They only take the cream of the cream which to be blunt your grades do not indicate you are. For most medical schools though you will probably get in. With those subjects and grades you should be fine.

Thanks
Bill

Community college and Medical School?

January 11th, 2009 by admin

I ask this question before but I want to add some detail.
This is my first year at a community college. I want to go to medical school. My question is after I complete my undergraduate degree at a university, would the Medical Officers look down on my community college years.

My CC has constantly has students transfer to such school as Columbia in NY, Cornell, UCLA, Smith, and Yale.

If I can get into one of the aforementioned schools, i guess I be OK

But if I just transfer to another good college and complete my degree there, would this hurt me.

Thank you for your time.
By the way, I am in the honor program at this college. A very small honor program.

Not at all, the core curriculum is pretty standard across the country; it’s when you start to get into degree specific courses that it makes a difference. All you need to do is make sure that your classes are accredited. I’d check with the registrar at your community college to verify accreditation status and the registrar at the school you intend to attend to make sure that they accept your classes. Other than that, I don’t expect you’d have much to worry about.

Study: 151,000 Iraqis died in conflict’s violence

151,000 Iraqis died in conflict’s violence!

updated 5:15 p.m. MT, Wed., Jan. 9, 2008

About 151,000 Iraqis died from violence in the first three years after the United States invaded, concludes the best effort yet to count deaths — one that still may not settle the fierce debate over the war’s true toll on civilians and others.

The estimate comes from projections by the World Health Organization and the Iraqi government, based on door-to-door surveys of nearly 10,000 households. Experts called it the largest and most scientific study of the Iraqi death toll since the war began.

Deaths in Iraq ‘tragic’
White House deputy press secretary Tony Fratto said White House officials had not seen the study, but called the deaths of Iraqi citizens or any troops “tragic.”

“We mourn the deaths of all people in Iraq as the country fights to defeat extremists …,” he said, contending that last year’s surge of troops is reducing civilian deaths.

The United Nations paid more than $1.6 million for the new study. Results were published online Wednesday by the New England Journal of Medicine.

By any count, the toll is “massive,” wrote Catherine and John Brownstein, statistics experts at Yale University and Harvard Medical School, respectively, in an accompanying essay. It likely still is low, because many Iraqis have fled and aren’t there to report deaths and because Iraq is too dangerous to survey some areas.DISCLAIMER, WARNINGS, AND NOTICE TO READERS: This website does not represent or endorse the accuracy or reliability of any of the information, content collectively, the “Materials”) contained on, distributed through, or linked, downloaded or accessed from any of the services contained on this website (the “Service”).

Any Med School students who visited all of the Ivy League Med schools?

January 9th, 2009 by admin

Any suggestions for such a trip? Will follow one suggestion to start in NYC: Cornell's medical school, the Weill-Cornell medical school is actually located at 1300 York Avenue, NY, NY, which is 54.47 miles from Bridgeport. (Drove to Ithaca and may save the 6-8 hour trip). Columbia's medical school is located at 630 W 168th Street, Manhattan, 52.37 miles from Bridgeport. I think they're both about 8 miles apart. It may be possible to do both in a single day, which would make a trip to Princeton Med school and Penn med school (55 miles apart) possible. Where I live in Bridgeport CT; close enough to Yale to have already gone a couple of times. Finally, to visit Brown, then Harvard then Dartmouth in a weekend. Any suggestions?
Not using the criteria of US News or their ranking.
The 1919 film adaptation, as well as Jacky Chan's adaptation, of "Around the World in 80 Days" by Jules Verne was filed all in and around Berlin in Germany. If you like, you could consider the trip as a search for the best filming locations for a remake of that – see Mark Brown's stage adaptation where 5 actors play 39 characters? We would add the tunnel under the English Channel and put one under the Bering Strait, and use high speed trains to make it in 8 days, and to include the island nations world-around use high speed ferries like the Hawii Superferry or the ones made by Derecktor Shipyards in Bridgeport CT. Maybe all on YouTube…?
…ooops, "filmed in and around…" Berlin

First I wonder why you're only visiting the Ivies. According to US News, these are how they rank.

1. Harvard
3. Penn
8. Yale
10. Columbia
15. Cornell
32. Dartmouth
34. Brown

You're skipping over a bunch of great non-Ivy League schools. Princeton doesn't have a medical school. Is this just a fascination with the Ivy League schools? Or are you considering applying? Whatever the case, best of luck.
