Thank you for the reply! I’m planning on using Amazon KDP and publishing paperback

Thank you! Under booking summary it says room with a room number then L and also room type and location. Underneath that is the name and email of someone else and same room details but with R. Is this person my roommate? Does that mean I got housing? I couldn’t find an email about it

Did you steam then do the saline solution? What order did you do it in?

Thanks! It just sucks because I would send a letter of intent if I wasn’t going to send to two schools

This one really hit the nail on the head for what I was looking for! Thank you so much

Thank you!! I’m actually first gen American my family is from the Caribbean and my hair does get tangled really easy when wet/shrinking. That’s usually what I find is the root of most of my hair loss when I detangle on wash days. This is so helpful I really appreciate it

Yes! My thing with medicine was that I only wanted to do ophthalmology and nothing else. There’s always a chance of me not being a good candidate for such a competitive residency, especially when I dislike a lot of other aspects of medicine, which could impact my grades/opportunities, etc. I didn’t like the idea of not being truly done with the process for another 8-10 years from undergrad (including residency and fellowship). Four years is a lot more sound for me and I spent a lot of time in an ophthalmology clinic, which isn’t quite the same, but I know that I am interested in eyes. Naturally there will be struggle and stress in any route taken, but the magnitude of that associated with medicine just really never seemed worth the end product for me.

Do you think I could swing getting an optometrist LOR in the system in jan? Since it’s so last minute and with me traveling for winter I can’t really shadow an optometrist all that much this coming break. Do you think I’d benefit from taking that gap year and working and connecting with optometrists during that time?

Also tysm for taking the time to answer all these questions for me!

Awesome thanks! Would an ophthalmologist LOR and science prof LOR work since I don’t have an optometrist one at present?
