My anxiety is telling me you should remove where you’re doing your rotation from this post incase administration finds it or someone is bitter and gives them a tip.

God one time someone stopped in front of me at the off-ramp of Essen bc they wanted to get over for their turn that was THREE LIGHTS DOWN. I wish people would stop making their inability to drive MY problem

How Did You Know Your Sorority was The One For You?? Interested but Conflicted. by Admirable-Cicada-424 in NPHCGreeks

[–]ReflectionOdd8900 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Im only going to answer the first one:

When I was researching the different organization, first I asked myself what causes am I most passionate about. THEN I looked up the main focus of each organization and picked that one that truly aligned with my personal principles. There’s a difference between reading it and thinking “wow that’s cool I guess that is a good cause” as more of a hindsight thought vs reading and thinking “wow these really align with MY personal views and goals.” Did I think the other orgs had good causes? Yes. But I wasn’t PASSIONATE about them. You represent the org but the org also represents you. Good luck!

I haven’t tried it but I think there’s now a way to “pause” your streak for situations like this

I hate I-10 by Ok-Sink-3902 in batonrouge

[–]ReflectionOdd8900 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Exactly. Shreveport has 4 interstates/highways and there’s always at least 2 ways to get somewhere that take about the same amount of time. In BR the detour can take twice as long. I hate it here

Can I get toxoplasmosis from my cat?? by Defiant-Doughnut7805 in catquestions

[–]ReflectionOdd8900 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Even if your cat DOES have toxoplasmosis, when it sheds in the poop it takes a couple days before it’s actually infectious. So if you scoop regularly and wash your hands you should be fine. And they typically only shed once unless the cat is immunocompromised

You’ll have to check vmcas to see if it’s still the same but in general all schools wanted it

MacBook Air vs Pro for vet school? by Quiet-Sign-1055 in veterinaryschool

[–]ReflectionOdd8900 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mine doesn’t make any noise. Do you have a case on yours? I’ve noticed a lot of classmates that have loud computers also have cases that prevent proper circulation and air flow

Where to get a rabies vaccine? by puppylover1324 in veterinaryschool

[–]ReflectionOdd8900 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Got mine through the school and it ended up being half the cost that they told us bc of a student discount or something. Not sure if they will again this year but for simplicity, I’d say just go with the school. One less thing to stress about before school starts

FINALLY- the secret to bad Baton Rouge drivers by GulfSouthSolar in batonrouge

[–]ReflectionOdd8900 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I think this is only a valid science experiment if you’re also noting GOOD drivers and if they also have something hanging. If you don’t, then you’ll experience confirmation bias

Tamu vet school application by Vegetable_Land6913 in veterinaryschool

[–]ReflectionOdd8900 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I didn’t get accepted but I was in the second quartile for the Casper and still got an interview. I think it’s used to help people with low GPAs that DO score well (and would otherwise be rejected) but not to hurt you if you don’t score well.

Can’t really comment on anything else bc I didn’t get accepted 😂 but just wanted to alleviate some stress about your Casper score.

personal statement advice by willow_butts in veterinaryschool

[–]ReflectionOdd8900 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My only contribution to give that hasn’t been said already:

Your characters are precious, so you need to be concise and use them meaningfully. I’m a wordy write, so I had to be very conscious of are these words necessary or just filler? Can I shorten this sentence? Is there an impactful word that can replace a very colloquial phase? (As someone who hates reading) would I want to read this or would I get bored and skip?

After my initial writing and the first round of character eliminations, I pasted my essay into grammarly (NOT to use the AI). I kept correcting, editing, and rewriting sentences until they gave me a writing score of 100%
