kwc1979 said:wow....go back and read the thread. i don't know where you've been this whole time but getunconcsious seems like a pretty good guy. we've all been bitching about unsom for good reason. for instance, regardless of what you think, linda marashall is ridiculously bad at her job. so there is no reason to call him out on something we've all sort of agreed upon. if you love the school so much, why don't you try to enlighten us on why you picked it over other schools....rather than coming in here and throwing insults around.
Now who's ganging up on whom? Look, I don't want this thread to drown in animosity either...Medfish is right that we might be sharing cadavers (or prosected chunks of cadavers?) But I would like to point out a couple of things: Clearly getunconscious does not like UNSOM (and I, for one, don't give a damn that it's actually UNSOM, to me it will always be UNR. Who really cares?). Who wants to be stuck in a small class for four years with someone who clearly does not want to be there? Gee, that sounds like fun for all of us. Is it really too much to ask to want to go to med school with people who want to be there as much as you do?
Please see getunconscious' post in the "worst city to go to med school" thread to see how he really feels about Reno. So go to Houston or wherever.
And yeah, UNR is a great school for primary care. Someone who describes himself as too misanthropic for primary care might be better suited for a school where you can easily get into nice specialties where you don't have to talk to anyone.
I'm sure that DrRaman82 has read the thread in full as all of us here have, and I can attest to the fact that DrRaman82 is really a very nice person who is merely fed up up (as I am) with people who says they're strongly considering UNR but seem to hate everything about it. In the exception of cases involving full ride scholarships, why would you even consider it? We've all been told a thousand times to go somewhere we know we'd be happy. A lot of the people who say they want to go to UNR don't seem to think they'd be happy.
I, on the other hand, would be happy to go there. And yet I'm waitlisted, waiting for people who seem to hate the place to seal my fate. See how this can be upsetting?
