Med school changes you

I guess it's true. Med school does change you. Before starting med school, I used to be all about community service, working in the community, helping a neighbor and all that good shit. I was reading over an applicant's essay and tore it apart. For starters, it had no style. More so, there was no clear indication of why he wanted to become a doctor and it bothered me that the flow of his essay lacked a unifying theme. Anyhow, I asked my roommate what his unifying theme was...he said something along the lines of needing to try different things. Then he asked me what my unifying theme was...I said compassion. He started cracking up when I said that. He said it was hilarious to hear that from a guy who calls his patients little bitches...touche
