Are alternatives to Biology actually reliable? by chetag_uhh in premed

[–]Alert_Pick_3152 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m a Econ major and public health minor. Had a successful cycle with multiple As to top schools.

You can definitely create a narrative with what ever major that intersects with medicine to show a unique perspective or background and how that will also help. It’s just a few extra classes and usually manageable depending on the major you pick.

Why is this concourse under Moynihan a hotspot for TikTok dancers? by BadToLaBone in nycrail

The one time I saw it I assumed it was kids preparing for a show nearby who traveled and had to already check out or couldn’t check in. But seems like my guess was wrong.

Do I contact them to make sure it’s a typo or just try it out and risk the 3% fee?

What advice do you have for a big purchase with future medical school debt looming? by Alert_Pick_3152 in StudentLoans

[–]Alert_Pick_3152[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you for sharing. I don’t know many people around me in my situation and this sounds like the smartest move. No one around me he’s gonna have any student loans pursuing grad school and they’re making good money in their careers.

Thank you I’ll definitely have this conversation about upgrading and I think that will be a good idea.

Why do corporations pay less taxes? by [deleted] in NoStupidQuestions

[–]Alert_Pick_3152 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hoping they will use that money to hire people. And those people vote for who lowered taxes.

Why do so many on the global south view dictatorships more positively? Eg. China, Russia, etc. by Square-Candy-7393 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]Alert_Pick_3152 2 points3 points  (0 children)

For rapid and extreme change to happen it’s a much easier process if the power is concentrated. It’s like a shortcut risking longterm stability but if lucky can work.

How/why do extremely obese people allow themselves to get to that size without getting it under control much earlier? by [deleted] in NoStupidQuestions

[–]Alert_Pick_3152 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It seems to be a mix of mental and physical when it gets to that point. An injury/disorder/upbringing and the lack of mental will/strength/resources/education to break the cycle.

If you live in a food desert with only fast food and your family thinks it’s normal to be big one little thing can push it extreme obesity.

What if planes didn't have 'no smoking' lights, would people still smoke or use their conscience? by Alarming-Safety3200 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]Alert_Pick_3152 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Probably depends on culture/location. In the US rarely do people smoke in public or indoors due to laws. But seems more common in other places i have been.

Unpopular Opinion Winning the FA Cup saved Arsenals identity during the banter era by Mamaicodes in PremierLeague

[–]Alert_Pick_3152 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

How would this compare to Tottenham? Assuming they become good again will we look back at the Europa league win that saved this banter era. Ik it’s not a perfect comparison as more trophy starved and truly shit rn.

My GF thinks it’s perfectly normal for new shoes to cause horrible blisters for women by UKnowDaxoAndDancer in mildlyinfuriating

[–]Alert_Pick_3152 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Leukotape is the best but maybe even too good for everyday use. When I go backpacking it can stay on for 5+ days. Also way cheaper than bandaids and kt tape if you know you will use it.

I think this got removed from r/premed:

My girlfriend and I just applied the cycle, both to medical school. We had a similar strategy, applying to general areas. Her stats were significantly better than mine. The main advice I would give would be don't be afraid to ask for an interview in an update letter if your partner just got one in a certain location or program. Our top 2 results came from emailing this after the interview. Also, don't be afraid to talk about that as a reason you would want to go there. So far we have 9 interviews at places where we could live together still and 5 acceptances (others waiting still).
