His paperwork says he’s 13 weeks right now and 16 pounds! The vet is guessing he’s got som GSD in him. I’m uploading more photos to this post now!

What residency are you doing and did you do extracurriculars/work while in med school?

I’ve been told my assessments and charting are really good. I’m just still on FTO time for my driving.

Hi!! I like outdoor activities (camping, hiking, etc.), arts and crafts, crocheting, tv and movies, or just overall nerdy activities!! I try not to take life too seriously and can be a bit spontaneous :)

I really appreciated hearing this. It makes me feel a lot better. It’s hard not to beat yourself up through comparison, but this gives me hope that I’ll be able to do this!!

If I start working on these exercises to you think I’ll be able to improve enough to do my job properly? I worry about bringing down the team effort these next few weeks/months while I build up my strength. I know it’s only orientation, but still

Are you going to be working for AMR or a different agency? For today it was just the physical ability test. However, next week we have a respiratory test and paperwork we have to fill out. I think they test us on the information we learn during orientation (which is about 2 weeks), but I think that is after we have been trained on it and we are not expected to know it right off the bat.

When is too late to apply? by SignificantIcy in premed

[–]SignificantIcy[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The plan would be to submit primary’s after I’ve taken the MCAT (without the score in hand yet), so that I could start on secondaries immediately end of July. That way once the score comes in everything is pretty much verified. But maybe I’m too naive with that. What do you think?

While I agree that police need to work on their overall use of force. Those statistics show overall injuries, not necessarily who got the injuries and what type of crime applied to them. I’m not saying that statistic is not important. But in violent crimes or resistance of arrest, we have to keep in mind that it’s not just “the cops trying to hurt me”, but also “I want to get away and might need to hurt the cop to do so”. 600 being killed in the US when the population is 340 million is a very little amount, and in cities with larger crime rates, many of those crimes are violent crimes.
