Interesting

Will this new development hasten the death of many medical schools of very poor standards? I honestly hope so!

Well, it also affect students who need the aditional funds becuase their other loan sources are not enough to cover 50 thousand a year in tuition, books, expenses, etc.

......when the going gets tough, the tough get going...........I think the strong willed MD aspirants will think out a way...........Iswiltshire now you can appreciate my queries a few days ago about certain schools.....I had apprehended such a crunch......its going to be tough.

But substandard med schools with low tuition will thrive more in this situation....as parents will choose them over better expensive school....

Things just suddenly got very bad!

Cool aid posits...... But substandard med schools with low tuition will thrive more in this situation....as parents will choose them over better expensive school....


Things just suddenly got very bad!

The thought that substandard med schools with low tuition will thrive more in this situation is enough to make a man very very ill!

Hope the rapture occurs very very soon!
