i know the path to medical school is extremely competitive but is it just me that has noticed that some pre-med kids are STRAIGHT BONKERS?????

sending the wrong lectures notes to your "friend" who missed class WILL NOT HELP you get into medical school.

forming fb groups to share material and exchange ideas.... only to rat out your classmates to professors WILL NOT GET YOU into medical school.

Ghosting your "friends" when they ask you for assistance WILL NOT GET YOU into medical school

Submitting multiple "research" papers to sketchy journals just to say that you are published WILL NOT GET YOU into medical school (yes, this actually happened at my school) lmaoo

pre-meds, whats tea??? the stories i've heard from my friends who are aiming to get into medical school got me shook

I'm not a premed. I wanted too in high school but I was one of the crazy AP bio kids and other kids used to cheat off of me or ask me for notes. Some would be friendly for homework answers. I got sick of it one day so when it came time to do assignments or take tests, I would write the wrong answers because I knew they would copy then change them to the right ones before I turned my stuff in.

I hate people who just want to copy of your work when you spend hours working on those assignments. Ugh!

Pre med dudes I've met really feel superior to others, its crazy. I'm mutual friends with one (guyanese indian) and the dude has two parents who are doctors as well.

I know another guy that's in med school for dentistry (Ghanian) but isn't THAT bad.

The most arrogant know it all majors I came across were pre med, engineering, and business.
It’s funny when the arrogant premed students don’t get into med school.

Honestly I hate that so many doctors are insane narcissists and it apparently all starts way before they even become doctors as I suspected

All I know is when I was still pursuing that path, I was the most unhappy I’ve ever been and most of the students around me were miserable too.

Facts! Honestly it spans graduate level studies. They are all crazy and narcissists you kinda have to believe your own hype but some of them are straight psychos!

Yes! This African dude at my job was nearly fuming when he told me about his struggles trying to get into med school, constantly rejected. I ask him about his backup career. He has no other career plans, only wants to be a doctor. I even tried to mention to him other get career choices like physician assistance or pharmacology, but he said no!


I always try to think of backup/contingency plans, just in case if something goes wrong in my life.


We all should have backup plans. The future is never set in stone.
i know someone who graduated 5 years ago and still has not gotten into medical school. there are still great options besides medical school so i'm not sure why people are hella stuck on this one option.

Less than 10% of students actually get into medical school where i am (canada) so the superiority complex of these students bewilder me

Thank you!

There is a lot of opportunities, besides just pre-med.

Competition doesn't always bring out the best in people. I understand the pressure that they are under (I am in a similar program even though I wasn't interested in pursuing medicine at the time), but as always in life, some people just take things too far.

What annoys me though is people who start talking down to others when they are still in the hopeful/application stage. Like sis... where is this arrogance coming from?

Yup we should have back up plans. People really be out here shocked when they get rejected.

Yikes. I hope he feels it was worth it if he eventually gets in.

Yes it has always been that way. When I was in school they would go to the library and rip pages from books so other students couldn't do their research. It was nuts.

I'm a pre-med student and one of my professors told me to be careful because people at one of the schools I applied to were known for stealing textbooks and sabotaging other students. I cannot stand people who think they're special just because they study STEM.

I was kicked out of premed and had to change major my JUNIOR YEAR!! But Those Premed students are no joke, their crazy because they don't have a life outside of school, I not saying this to be mean because a premed student life is to get a good GPA in order to get into med school. I remember classmates talking about street drugs to stay awake in order to study. If you got in the way of them getting a good grade best believe you will be ran over.I got kicked out of premed because I decided to study for the MCAT while taking classes like Cell Bio, Calculus, Physics 2, Anatomy, and I tried to "have fun"

My previous major was Health science and seeing how all those science classes made me miserable and how they messed up my transcript, I changed it to something that I really enjoy. I wasn't going to force myself into something that wasn't meant for me.
