I'm late to the party but huge congrats Josh!! I know that must be a massive weight off your shoulders. With a good GPA and scores like that you should have your choice of schools for the most part. Just pick a name and decide how much you're willing to spend. My plug would be for the University of Pennsylvania School of Medicine. Then again I'm bias to Penn.lol Great job again.

Congratulations Josh!...Stories like this never gets old.

Makes me want to go back and finish what I started 2 1/2 years ago when I was in Grad school. Can't do it at moment since I'm in the process of moving back to Dallas again.

I just started reading this one myself so im late but congrats. Hard work will pay off in the end.

Medicine is a great field. I was a paramedic once upon a time before the military and I loved the work. Medical school is certainly one of the toppers on my "If I could go back and do it all again" list.

I saw someone mention gynecology, remember, they dont come to see the doctor when everything is in good working order...

You have your regular annual checkups that could make it worth it.lol I heard Josh was more interested in becoming a proctologist though.

haha...an interview just means i have a decent chance of getting in.....considering vandy offers less than 10% of their 7000 applicants interviews...... it doesnt mean i WILL get in and go there. i am a bit biased towards chicago though....i will admit that

the u-chicago interview went VERY well and i loved the school. i should hear back sometime between 4 and 8 weeks. i hear they interview about 600 out of the 7000 or so applicants and accept about 200.

U Chicago, and most medical schools besides Harvard and Yale, do rolling admissions. I will not know after interviews if I get in or not for 4-8 weeks. For those schools that do not do rolling admissions, I won't know until March. It is a long, long, long process lol. But I feel confident about UC.....just gotta wait.

Who interviewed you at UC? I did research there over the summer for a PI that did interviews for the med school.

Some of those med school girls are hot!

Best of luck to you!
