I was really upset by this email. I felt that the tone was unprofessional. I called them the day they posted the "pre-orientation" dates because I have a dentist appointment on that day in Ohio. Before calling them I had already tried to change it-without success. My options were cancel it (and not have my teeth cleaned until I am home again), go to Sears dentist earlier in the week, or skip pre-orientation. When I called I was told that they would call or email me back. I haven't heard from anyone. Was that email the response? This is the first time I have actually thought maybe I did make the wrong decision when choosing my medical school...
I am going to try calling again... Regardless, I am more than a little disappointed.
