Yup, that explains a lot...

Not sure what the allusion is, there, dt. But to maintaim context (reference integrity), the purpose of making the statements needs to be included:

Now, I cannot *prove* I could have gotten into a US school, but tell me again why I have to, or why it must be that I could not possibly have done that?

Hm, let's see..besides that, I have serious connections at Penn (influential family alum) and Jefferson (extremely filthy rich uncle alum who gives them mucho $ routinely). And almost 10 years of fruitful medical research, mostly clinical (yes, that is how I know many clinical researchers involved with res programs)

So, what you are saying is, this is the way you believe you would have gotten into an US school... by family connection, not by your own merit... Nice to have influential family. Sort of like Bill's kid studying in England...

Yes, please lock this silly thread... like my drill sarge used to say, "don't argue with idiots. They will bring you down to their level, and beat you by experiences."

So I will stop now.
