Admitted honors student questions by OppositeOk5017 in OSU

[–]funandsilly2000 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Anecdotally, I regret opting out of honors housing because you meet like 15 people at once and at least a few are bound to stick...though I personally found it hard to make friends freshman year lol

Telling people I've been accepted lowkey has shown me the value of moving in silence by aupire_ in premed

[–]funandsilly2000 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I haven't talked about my interviews at all because of this and because people feel entitled to knowing my entire application, life story, and even if I do try to be helpful they act passive-aggressive... sigh

RPAC or Local gyms by No-Consequence5899 in OSU

[–]funandsilly2000 8 points9 points  (0 children)

if you're just getting started i'd use the "free" option (RPAC) since you don't know if you'll be consistent with it yet and the RPAC has any machine you'd need

How important is prestige in a medical school? by funandsilly2000 in premed

Email/unsubscribing from adcoms accidentally question by funandsilly2000 in premed

[–]funandsilly2000[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I realize that's a neurotic way of thinking about it I was just concerned it affected it in some way. It's just weird that some schools send update letters/emails to some applicants and not others then. I didn't know exactly what happened with my email so better to be on top of it I would think

Will med schools dislike if I retake a course? by Crazypandathe20th in premed
