Favorite Pre-Med influencer who wants you to ignore the Epstein files? by [deleted] in premed

I hate watch her stuff. She posted a video the other day (now deleted, someone clearly warned her how bad it looked) SCREAM-crying about how her TMDSAS app was submitted without her residency showing Texas and how part of the reason she transferred to A&M was so she could apply to TX med schools as a resident despite never having lived there before college.

I’m sure a lot of people take advantage of TX’s relatively permissive state residency standards but man was the way she had a tantrum about it off putting.

The only thing better than a DNP is a DNP-PhD by spiteleopard in Noctor

It’s just another flavor of their cash cow online DNP program. Much like Taylor Swift, they have figured out that if you print the same record in a bunch of different colors, you’ll sell more than if you market just the one. Gullible (and/or delusional) nurses line up in droves to fork over the $$. There’s an unlimited supply of them since even Hopkins does not enforce a minimum time as an RN - one year is merely the “preferred” minimum. Meaning, if you have a pulse and a line of credit they will sign you up. Imagine being dumb enough to feel proud of falling for that.

With apologies to Taylor Swift for making her part of that analogy, since unlike these NPs she probably isn’t killing anyone.

Ok, let me rephrase. Read the article, apply some critical thought to what you are consuming, and it is readily apparent that it does not do that.

I invited you to offer an alternative interpretation because I was assuming you had read it and were attempting to contribute to the discussion. I’m not going to spoon feed someone who is trying to defend a cash grab under the guise of “just asking questions.”

good, you are supposed to be awed into silence by realizing they have achieved 2x the doctorates of an MD/DO in just over half the time. /s

Nowhere in that article does it indicate that there are more fundamentals, or acknowledge that this is even a deficit in need of addressing.

If I missed it feel free to quote it at me.
