We just got our acceptance letter yesterday and already mailed the $500 deposit. We heard that school starts on September 12th. We will be on the island late August in order to adjust to the new lifestyle...probably rent a hotel before the school allow us to check into our room. My fiancee hopes that we can get a room to ourself with private bath.

Just wanted to give you a heads up....that many states require 60 undergrad credit hours for licensure . What state is you friend working in?

As far as your original question goes...your GPA should be fine....but in the end at admissions committee makes the decision.

I know a few WSOM students that got a residency in OHIO that went straight from high school and entered the Pre-Med/MD program.

Again, for the millionth time, this is not the same as obtaining licensure.

Hi everyone,

MD1 student for Sept 08' here. Just wanted to say hi. I can't wait to start! I've been reading a lot of the threads on here, but still have a few questions.

-Anyone have any opinion as to if I should get a Mac or a PC (laptop) for school?
-How many days before class can I move into school housing? (realistically speaking)
-Does it take more than 2 days to setup internet access? Will I need bluetooth wireless or Ethernet cable?
-Are there pre-paid sim cards on the island for sale? cost?
-How much cash will I need to bring with me to school?

P.S. I am a very clean, quiet, studious female from New Jersey. I do like to play sports, go out in town and have fun when I can too! I saw there is an option for requesting roommates on the housing form. If anyone would like to get to know me and maybe room together please send me a private message!

Thanks a lot!

-Does it take more than 2 days to setup internet access? Will I need bluetooth wireless or Ethernet cable? If you go with the Cable they can do it in a couple of days...C&W takes some time....
-Are there pre-paid sim cards on the island for sale? cost? Yes..Bring your unlocked phone..35 EC
-How much cash will I need to bring with me to school? Bring your ATM card...and convert everything to EC as soon as you get a chance.



Thanks a lot!

Thanks Mod!

One more question on housing:

If I choose to stay on the island for that few weeks in between semesters, can I stay in the school housing? I would hate to think that every few months the students would need to pack up everything and move around...

P.S. Do you think I should start a new thread in regard to find a good roommate? or just repost it again later if I get no responds?

Thank you!
