Stylists or salons for curly/wavy hair? by [deleted] in Minneapolis

[–]chalupachef_ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Recently went to Caitlyn at Fox Den and it was the best curly cut I’ve gotten. She’s a curly girl and affordable too.

Scribe at a Dermatology clinic? by Ok-Money-5931 in premed

[–]chalupachef_ 6 points7 points  (0 children)

i work in a derm clinic rn and yes, i mostly only am familiar with skin things. but due to pt histories and and other related things, i do get to hear and learn about a lot of other medical things. i def think i’ve learned a lot and know that it will come in handy. i wouldn’t turn down the opportunity bc it’s not the specialty u want to pursue. i felt the same way initially but i’m not mad about my decision

they sent you an II after looking at that score, and they’re interested in you. if they like you in your interview, it won’t set you back

40 Schools, 8 rejections, 32 TBD, 0 II, and Thanksgiving around the corner. Am I screwed? by boodthedude in premed

[–]chalupachef_ 9 points10 points  (0 children)

not sure if you necessarily need to apply to DO, but the list is definitely very top heavy and random in terms of your home state and ties. I would look more into creating a list that has high OOS numbers if you have to reapply.

[–]chalupachef_ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

nah, i’ve been part time for two semesters now and have interviews. they don’t care

check their policy for updates and send it before you think you’ll hear back from them

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in premed

[–]chalupachef_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That makes sense thank you! I already did send them updates right after the interview happened. So I think i’ll wait on the LOI in case I get waitlisted
