I'll be coming from Providence/Boston area. I'm debating about whether or not to apply to be an RA - the perks are amazing (the comfort of campus security, free housing, etc); But also, I was an RA during my undergrad, and I reported to a Grad Studen...

Me! I just sent in my deposit last week, so I'm set on going to Penn! It's nice to see another fellow student out here. The cost is giving me some anxiety as well. Are you a summer start? I'm in the Summer Start BSN/MSN program for Women's Health. Do...

Just got back from mine too! I had a weird interview... it was not really a conversation, but one in which my interviewer asked me very specific questions, expecting specific answers in a limited time frame. She was transcribing my answers to a works...

From what I understand, you can get into Medical School with a bachelor's degree in anything. There is no "pre-med" degree per se, just a pre-med curriculum. All you have to do is fulfill the prerequisites, which usually involves 2 semesters of Chemi...

Hello everybody! Congrats to everyone on getting an interview with Yale! I have a question about the dress code during interviews. I've had several phone interviews, but I haven't had the chance to do a personal interview yet. Would a full pants-suit...
Hi everybody, I have to complete a phone interview with UPenn for the accelerated BSN program... any tips? I've never had a phone interview before. How formal/flowing is the content? Will it be an informational interview (ie Penn will tell me about i...
