Howard University Program - new1
#11
I got invitation too. I know the hospital(three of my friends are there). The hospital is at the worst place in DC. Now adays this program became competitive only because it is university program. All my friends said not bad program...one of our friend just joined John Hopkins for feloowship in GI from there. But I didn't feel I was in US when I visited the area last year.

imi pare rau andreea ptr invitatia asta,am si eu una in bronx la care nu cred ca am sa ajung,deocamdata un shotgun este prea scump ptr tine.Ideea de baza este ca in Bucuresti nu mergeam in Ferentari noaptea,zona interviului tau sau bronx este de 10 ori mai rau,asa ca nu cred ca se merita.
In washington orasul este impartit in 4 zone safe day/night,safe day,not safe night,not safe day/night. interviul tau este in zona cea mai rea
ai grija

Come matchday, all you super selective folks that keep b***hing about "so called BAD" programs and bad areas, will be so grateful to get a spot in one of their programs.

Know why?
Because the alternative is staying home in your own countries. SCREAM Smile))))
Have a very good night.

Yes Howard is pro African-american.
The following is from there web site. It's their mission.

"The Howard University College of Medicine first opened its doors as a medical department in 1868, just three years after the close of the Civil War. At that time, newly freed black people were migrating to the nation's capital in large numbers. The founders of the College recognized that the nearly overwhelming health care needs of this population and of other blacks throughout this country would be met best by training students to become highly competent, compassionate physicians who would deliver care in communities having a shortage of health personnel.

That realization was translated into the mission of the Howard University College of Medicine, and the continuing fulfillment of that mission is evidenced by the illustrious record of service provided by the College's alumni and faculty."

de acord cu tine Florine!

Din pacate cel mai bun interviu pe care il am pana acum e tot intr-o zona bad: Albert Einstein Montefiore/bronx....ce sa fac?? va trebui sa ma obisnuiesc cu ideea ....crezi ca e mai bine un spital comunitar curatel??? (gen St. Luke's Rosevelt? --tocmai am vorbit cu un roman de acolo si se pare ca e un loc placut...si mai important romanii au facut impresie buna!!!! pana acum ...la fel ca in St. Elisabeth Boston!

Parca totusi ma atrage Bronxul.....SmileSmileSmile

Mai sper ca nu esti twisted..Smile
parerea mea este ca nu trebuie sa alegi according numelui ci dupa cum te simti acolo...daca iti place un oras mai mic,sau mai mare,iti place sa mergi la cumparaturi sau sa mergi cu vaca la pascut,samd...Smile
comunitar sau universitar,aici este cu dus si intors,daca vrei sa faci un fellowship,da incearca universitar,dar este cu dus si intors.
Se pot schimba multe in 4 sau 5 ani ,si hai sa fim sinceri asa cum magarul de joker spunea o sa alegem ce o pica,nu?
Urasc sa le dau dreptate la indivizi de genul asta...
le-as da o replica gen parazitii asa cum l-am tratat pe sameallsane,dar ma abtin,in prezenta doamnelor sau domnisoarelor..Smile)
toate cele bune
