The students at UT Southwestern did an incredible job putting together this parody.
What an interesting surprise I had today when I checked the mail. UT Southwestern medical school sent me an acceptance letter (talk about last minute), which I quickly faxed back with a “no” to the offer. It’s funny. Just yesterday I blogged about UTSW hating me because they may have come across this site and read about my views on Baylor Med. Oh well, it’s one more spot that may go to someone who has yet to receive an offer.
Students matriculating to Texas medical schools sure have a lot to look forward to this coming year. How will Baylor College of Medicine proceed with a new president? How will the University of Texas Medical Branch (UTMB) Galveston continue the recovery process post-Hurricane-Ike? And now, how will the University of Texas Southwestern (UTSW) Dallas students react to a modified grading system?

For some Texas medical school applicants, there comes a point where they must decide between matriculating to Baylor College of Medicine or the University of Texas Southwestern. Why is this such a tough decision? Quite frankly, both schools are fantastic. They’re the top two in Texas according to US News. They each have unique amenities and consequently there are pros and cons associated with each institution.
Hurricane Ike really made my University of Texas Southwestern (UTSW) interview experience very interesting. Everyone showed a great deal of care by asking about my family back home in Houston; however, I didn’t want this Hurricane to detract from my main focus – showing my interviewers what I’m all about.
