i am definately!!
UDbiochem...you've got yourself a friend too!!!
funny story:
i used to work at CVS during the time books 4 and 5 were released and we'd get the books about a week before we were allowed to sell them. we had to sign these forms saying we knew it was a criminal offense to sell the books ahead of time or reveal their contents but of course we all got to read the books ahead of time. i'm about to ask for my old job back for a week just for that perk!!!!

Hey everyone ... for the "what would you be doing" question, I put that I would probably teach instead ...
and Trish - very cool about HP - my mom and sister were reading the first few books, then I decided to check it out, now I've read all 5 books and seen all 3 movies and loved 'em. A friend of mine gave me this 25 percent off thing at Barnes and Noble for Book 6 for my birthday (which was in April, but no complaints here!)
(and drguy, I'm a guy too)
And about where people are living - anyone else living in Bloomfield?

Thanks for the info drguy.
Also, about the letter everybody received regarding the Perkins Loan Master Promissory Note. I was wondering if anyone had already been contacted by the Student Loans Office and if so what was the point of this? I'm asking because I'm going away on vacation soon and will be gone for quite a while and don't want to miss out on signing the promissory note. Any info you guys have about this would be great, thanks.

Did anyone actually already buy a PDA? I was talking to a 2nd year when I was looking at apartments, and she said that every year, they send out that e-mail about requiring PDAs, but you don't really need one. You could just as well use your laptop.
So, don't really know if I should go out and get one.

I just got the axim x50v. I also wanted an excuse to buy one... and I don't have a laptop. This will enable me to check email, fool around during lecture, and carry around medicine reference material... and it's much cheaper than a laptop.

Someone posted before that you barely need the pda first year and noting stuff down on index cards would suffice. I dont have a laptop either and I'm trying to get buy without it. If you find out that you need a PDA you could always go out and get one later, no need to get one now.

Is the whole school wireless yet? Or is it just the lecture halls? And does anyone plan on bringing their laptops to class at all, or is that just too much of a hassle?

Also about the PDA thing - just bought the HP iPAQ 2755 on circuitcity.com (the same one drguy and thehomez got). Retail is 550, but if you get it on there it's 495 and there's a $50 rebate, so 445 plus tax after all is said and done. And shipping is free from circuitcity.com, or you can go to a store and they'll match the online price. Still a little on the pricey side, but it's one of the best PDAs out there, and if you're going to buy one, you might as well make it a good investment (in my opinion, anyway).

Ha....school wireless. They have wireless routers and antennas everywhere in the MSB (lecture halls, PBL rooms, hallways) and you'd think that they'd work. But maybe they were just working out the bugs last year, but unless your computer was assigned a very specific IP address you had no internet access, and even if you were assigned that IP, you couldn't access umdnj.edu sites, which was frustrating to say the least.
I haven't tried since school ended, so maybe it's fixed.
The library wireless works fine.

Hi everyone! I'm not Class of 2009 but I'm hoping to join all of you in the following year. I'm currently applying EDP to the school and I have my interveiw coming up real sooon. Do you guys have any advice for the interview? Anything you wish you had known beforehand? Any thoughts about whether I should schedule my interview before or after the tour? I could use any advice you guys have to offer. I'm really anxious/nervous/scared about the interview. LOL.

NJMS is definitely not an interview to be anxious/nervous/scared about. Everyone's experiences I've heard about, my own included, were very non-stressful and friendly. A little nervousness is alright ... but this interview is certainly nothing to freak out about!

Don't worry... I'm echo-ing Piccplayer by saying that they aren't out to stress you out. It was my first interview and I was sooooo nervous, but my interviewer was really nice. I told him it was my first interview, and he said "oh, that's exciting! that gives me the chance to make a good impression on you then." LOL
Good luck! Just be yourself.

Thanx for everyone's advice. It's going to be my first and ONLY interview for this whole med school application process so that's why I'm just a little scared. But, from what all you guys are saying, and reading the interview ratings on this website, it doesn't seem so bad anymore. Anywayz, I'm going to go schedule my interview now.
Also, on the supplemental application, when the question asks "Have you participated in any Education Programs at NJMS?" --should I put that I was in the Pre-Medical Honors Program (it was during my senior year in high school)?

Oh Lord yes. I precepted for this program last year and not only does the school love it, but the Admissions office keeps a file of all the kids who participated and graduated. Chances are they already know you've done it but definitely put it on your supplemental.

If you are interested in community projects and volunteering in impoverished areas, I would mention that. I was explaining how i did in the city of Rochester and my interviewer's eyes lit up and he began to rave about NJMS's student-run clinic. I dont think you have anything to worry about, they are realy layed back, Good Luck
From Website:
New Jersey Medical School has received a full eight-year accreditation from the Liaison Committee on Medical Education (LCME), a proud accomplishment that reflects the outstanding work of the many students, faculty, administrators and staff who spent the past year preparing for the accreditation site visit. In its letter announcing the accreditation, the LCME cited six institutional strengths identified by the site survey team. They are: commitment to medical education through the allocation of substantial resources to support educational improvement; the new Jubilee curriculum; the student satisfaction with student support services such as the Office of Student Affairs, Registrar and financial aid; remarkable student commitment to community service; ongoing success in sustaining a diverse student body through pipeline programs; and the substantial growth in extramural funding from the National Institutes of Health. The next full accreditation survey will take place during the 2012-2013 academic year.

old exams are available through the student website. each department has it's own policy about releasing old exams. biochem and genetics have practice questions available throughout the course. physio and histo release old exams, as do psych. for neuro, you will hear this repeated, use pre-test.
