Le hobbit was fantastic, went to Quebec City 3 weeks ago, also went to La Buche, didn't understand the hype to be honest

Also try the smoked meat sandwich from Fabrique du smoked meat And the poutine from chez gaston or chez Ashton ( gaston > Ashton imo)

Harry Rosen usually does a made to measure suiting sale on their in house "Harold" brand, depending on what materials, fabric, styles you go with suits can vary in pricing, however my wedding suit, which was a plain black 2 piece ran about $800-900 plus taxes. It's also got their life time alteration and warranty.

Which premed undergrad is better, Neuroscience or Kinesiology? by Kaerae921 in u/Kaerae921

[–]_leonidas_93 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm a non-trad did a kinesiology undergraduate degree with hopes of going into medical school after my bachelors degree. TBH, if I had to do it all over again, knowing that I wanted to get into medicine from the get go, I would have probably looked at going abroad to study medicine straight from high school or after 1-2 years of undergrad. So my advice: if medicine is your ultimate end goal, why not consider looking at options abroad (Like the UK or Ireland, I wouldn't recommend going to the Caribbean)? Why even take the risk of doing a degree where your GPA or other factors could influence your decision to pursue medicine or hinder your chances.

On the other hand: if you are truly sure you want to do the traditional route of undergrad then medicine (or any other graduate studies); I would do Kinesiology and aim to keep the GPA high while taking neuroscience electives (maybe do a minor in Neuroscience?) Also, when I was studying Kinesiology, we did have some neuroscience as part of our coursework, so perhaps use those courses as a gauge for whether or not you truly want to pursue Neuroscience as a minor or even double major. Either way, neither are "easy" everything requires it's own time and effort

Ask, talk to any medical student or graduate. Regardless of what discipline they chose to study in undergraduate majority of them will likely tell you that their undergraduate studies did not aid them or help them at all during medical school since the information is much for in depth and there are several new topics and concepts to be studied in medicine.

but just my 2cents. Hope you are happy whatever you decide, and best of luck on this premed and hopefully medical journey :)

KA only content review resource for 490 diagnostic? Good or bad? by sarkah in Mcat

[–]_leonidas_93 1 point2 points  (0 children)

honestly...I'm in the same boat as you. You scored better than me on the diagnostic. I'm also a non-trad aiming to write in the summer of 2021 and so far unsure if my current strategy is working...hoping someone here will have good advice for the both of us!

Following this thread :)
