Philly Reconnaissance
Drew and I spent the last four days in Philadelphia, barely escaping the nor'easter last night. The trip was good, actually a bit smoother than I'd expected. We found a couple nice neighborhoods, spent time with Katie/Kevin/Cian, went to a bizarre and fascinating lecture at a swanky art gallery, and had some great (and some not-so-great) food (although the former outweighed the latter in the end).
My thoughts on the med school... uhm, I don't know. I definitely feel a little more comfortable with it now. I spent the whole day there on Friday listening to lectures and taking tours and talking to students. They did their best to obscure the hard-partying student culture and pointed giant klieg lights on their best and brightest. It helped, but my reservations about the student body are the same as they were before. I'm sure I'd be very, very happy at that school. I just can't be 100% excited about it, which is a bit annoying.
Still no word from the New York schools.
