sounds good. If you dont mind the extra years. Good luck

Durlinga, trust me its an experience that you won't get anywhere else.

Some people take to it and some freak out.

Makes sure you have some traveling under your belt, and enjoy the ride.

There is nothing wrong with a positive perspective.

I do not know any students that are not discuraged with the school right now, and it tends to be infectious. However, you are not disillusioned. There are many things you can get be being here, and the experience is great. If you have read here, you know what to expect. Welcome

These are the words of Jerome Kern and Dorothy Fields but are worthy of Jiminy Cricket.

"Nothing's impossible, I have found
For when my chin is on the ground.
I pick myself up,
Dust myself off
And start all over again.


Don't lose your confidence
If you slip
Be grateful for a pleasant trip
And pick yourself up,
Dust yourself off
And start all over again."

How is that for positive.

you are disillusioned.
not good to just waste those "few extra years" especially in the medical field
