Guest Dingalongdong Posted July 11, 2006 Report Share Posted July 11, 2006 Yeah, I can't wait for my student ID number so I can send that immunization letter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest turtle Posted July 11, 2006 Report Share Posted July 11, 2006 nope, i've got nothing yet either and am also getting pretty excited!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest silverbirdie Posted July 11, 2006 Report Share Posted July 11, 2006 You can find copies of last year's Whats Up Doc online. meds.queensu.ca/undergrad...c_2005.pdf But yea, I can't wait to receive my registration stuff! I sent the immunization form in already, but without the student number. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest sensfan Posted July 11, 2006 Report Share Posted July 11, 2006 ha ha, i haven't even gone to see my GP yet to get that immunization ball rolling... you keeners! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest ScoobyBill Posted July 11, 2006 Report Share Posted July 11, 2006 I can't wait for that package to come - I'm just bursting with excitement. It's funny how I only want two things to happen right now: school to start, and Grey's Anatomy Season 2 to come out, why do they both have to happen in September ? >: I am looking forward to getting my second Hep shot so I can send my Immun form in too! Has anybody scored a fat line of credit? >: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest QueensMSc Posted July 11, 2006 Report Share Posted July 11, 2006 Settle down guys... the packages are on the way, and they will include your very own copy of the What's Up Doc. In the mean time, you can stay current by checking the Orientation Website, AKA: the updated interview website. meds.queensu.ca/students/.../index.htm There's not much new information on it now, but it will be updated over the next week. Of course, we will only provide vague details, which should allow for an element of surprise. Don't worry, it's going to be good. See you soon--you've got lots to look forward to.

Guest turtle Posted July 12, 2006 Report Share Posted July 12, 2006 ooooh, the packages are coming....very exciting! (hee hee!) checked out the orientation site -- yeah, nothing too interesting up there yet, but i admit, just seeing that home page made it feel real to me. (yes, turtle, you are actually going to be in med school in 8 weeks!) question for you guys: what is this immunization form & was there anything else important in the initial acceptance package you received? since i was on deferred admission (and already payed my tuition deposit when i was originally accepted), i didn't receive any kind of package at all this year... thanks! turtle PS. i've never even seen Grey's Anatomy! am i truly missing out? i was never able to get into ER & have only caught a couple of episodes of House (not hooked on that yet either)....i know, i know: what kind of a premed am i?!....though i think i've seen just about every episode of Scrubs -- now THAT is the best show ever!!

Guest FlamingSheep Posted July 12, 2006 Report Share Posted July 12, 2006 Scrubs is definitely the best show ever, but I just got hooked on Grey's Anatomy this summer. You should definitely give it a shot, if only for a certain doctor's mcdreamy hair (a feature of the show that viewers of all genders can appreciate).

Guest Dingalongdong Posted July 12, 2006 Report Share Posted July 12, 2006 To Turtle: the initial package consisted of 3 documents. 1) Official Offer Letter 2) A form to be submitted to both Queens and OMSAS for you to firmly accept / provisionally accept / decline the offer. 3) Immunization form: Queens wants verification of your HB, TB, tetanus, zoster... immunizations. You will have to bring this form to your GP to get it signed. Hope this was helpful, Dingalongdong>: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest turtle Posted July 13, 2006 Report Share Posted July 13, 2006 yeah, i'll definitely give Grey's Anatomy a shot one of these days...maybe try to catch up on last season & get ready for the new season in sept! (could always use one more excuse to procrastinate from studying!) thanks, dingalongdong -- i guess i should give the admissions office a call & see if i can get one of those forms... turtle Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest sensfan Posted July 13, 2006 Report Share Posted July 13, 2006 hey turtle, i must also HIGHLY recommend ER's early seasons - they are stuuuuuuuupendous. seasons 1-5 are out on dvd. my sister's in med school at u of t and she used to watch certain episodes to "study" for tests, hee hee.

Guest turtle Posted July 13, 2006 Report Share Posted July 13, 2006 hehe...now that's my kind of studying!! maybe we should make a special "multimedia" study group... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest brownie99 Posted July 13, 2006 Report Share Posted July 13, 2006 You're all forgetting about House! Now that show is one of my faves!! He's so sarcastic and evil and wounded, I just can't get enough! Anyways, has anyone applied for bursaries yet? I've been trying, but I can't find my OMSAS number and apparently my former Queen's student number is not the same one the med school uses. Or am I just trying at the wrong site? Help? I'm trying to hold off on a line of credit as long as I can - I hate hate hate going into debt (even though its going to be unavoidable)! So are any of you in town yet? I'm thinking we should have a little get-together. We could even start studying!!! We could be SUPER-GEEKS!! :rollin Although I guess that's kinda a given since we're in med school (god it still doesn't seem real, I still can't believe after all the work I put in I'm finally going to be in med school this fall!!). Hooray for super-geeks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest turtle Posted July 13, 2006 Report Share Posted July 13, 2006 i've only seen a couple of episodes of House -- and, i admit, with a few more i may be able to get into it....i think the block for me is that if you're talking about evil, sarcastic doctors, who nonetheless always prove that they have a good heart, no one can compare to Dr. Cox on Scrubs!! ahhh, i [heart] Dr. Cox... i won't be in town 'till Sept 1 ('cause that's when i get my new apartment, yay!), but i may make a stop in Kingston on my way back home (Toronto) after defending my thesis (in Ottawa)...probably sometime in August... as an aside...if anyone lives in/around the Toronto area & feels like meeting up sometime, I'd be up for that too... oh, and...YAY FOR SUPER GEEKS turtle (wow, can anyone tell i've been bored at work lately -- been spending way too much time on these forums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest FlamingSheep Posted July 13, 2006 Report Share Posted July 13, 2006 Brownie: I was talking to the Life Sci secretary, and I thought she told me we keep the same student number, but I could be wrong... I really don't want to memorize a new student number! Also, I'd be up for some Queen's related get-together goodness. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Ans Posted July 13, 2006 Report Share Posted July 13, 2006 I was told today by the Queens admission office that our student number and Qlink would remain the same as last year if we just graduated from Queens. Anna Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest brownie99 Posted July 14, 2006 Report Share Posted July 14, 2006 humm...has anyone who is a former queens student tried to apply for a bursary yet? every time i try they just tell me that they have no record of me and maybe the admissions office hasnt received my file yet. i wonder if it makes a difference that i wasn't a queens student last year - it was the year before.

Guest turtle Posted July 20, 2006 Report Share Posted July 20, 2006 hey everyone, so, the packages are arriving! mine came this morning (in Toronto) -- can't comment on what's in it as it's at my parents' place & i'll have to wait until I can make it out there to pick it up, but i just thought i'd pass on the good news. go check your mailboxes!! turtle Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest NeuroChick Posted July 21, 2006 Report Share Posted July 21, 2006 Hey "turtle" So cool to run into you in Kingston! Now there'll be at least one familiar face when school starts . Just wondering, was your package sent by regular mail or express/priority post? I'm trying to figure out when to excpect mine over here. BTW, as a huge fan of both House and Scrubs(Dr. Cox... ), I think you should definitely plan a House marathon. TV in the name of education...
