Becoming an EMT

[mrmeaner]

Referring to yourself in the 3rd person does not look goofy. SOPHRENOLOGIST Sends.

I'll add to this. Develop good study habits NOW. I'm currently in a masters program and if I had studied this hard in high school I would have had well over a 4.0 (advanced placement for the win), and well over a 3.5 GPA in college. I would also be in med school now instead of grad school which would have saved me $50k [tuition+living expense] and 2 years of my life [grad + gap year]. Find a study method that works well for you, even if it's reading the text book for understanding 5 times.

Note: Of course in undergrad the courses weren't nearly as geared to insuring people knew the material. The support in grad school is great [recorded lectures, syllabus that has 99% of the material we need for the test] and completely unlike what I had during undergrad.

Yeah, but considering you were in the Peoples Republic of Kalifornia, I think you're lucky! And I'm sure they did their very best to make sure you had a multi-cultural experience and feel good about yourself, whether you succeed in life or not.

What if you want to be "well rounded"???

You smartass!

I see not much has changed in my hiatus. :twisted:

After college...what happens? Get married and work as an EMT?

Oh, yeah, forgot that one. Don't get married until your late 20's or early 30's and have enough dating experience to know who's good for you. Girls that make your heart flutter that you (think you) know you could spend the rest of your life with are common. You want the vest BEST. And yeah, don't seriously date public safety, incredible cheating rate.

I was on one e-mail forum that totally imploded over fighting about one member always referring to himself in the third person. It was mind boggling!

His screen name didn't start with "BIG" did it?

I think teachers more interested in making sure you know EVERYTHING when they see you're going to be a fellow member of their field and not just majoring in the topic.
