2) Is there alot of vegeterian food available in resturaunts and supermarkets?--yea not too hard---

3) If you could have taken a class BEFORE medical school that would have helped you alot, what class or classes would it have been?---under water basket weaving

4) What is the class size of an incoming class, and what is the size of the class that graduates?---depends on the semester last sept was 160ish

5) If I start in Aug 06, I know that I wouldn't have classes from May until August of 07, Would I be able to keep taking classes over the summer?---DUDE READ THE AUC SITE---WE DONT GET SUMMERS OFF---man, you go 5 semesters back to back with a little break btw each---i have no clue why i am answering this question when you should of read it on the aucmed.edu site

6) Residencies - Is it harder to get a residency than someone from say SGU if I had the similar USMLE scores and grades?----this has been discussed and beaten to a bloody pulp---so no one really knows--people will claim what ever they feel like claming---hell at the end we are all IMGs however way you flipping look at it

thanks guys

I took Biochem, I am taking genetics now, and I plan to take Gross Anatomy over the summer. Also, I am learning Histology from Wheaters. Helpful or not? and if it is, How much?


stateof, could you help me out on those first questions I asked?

Thanks
