Hi PMSA Members!
I have some exciting news! I am proud to announce the launch of our first-ever Question/Answer Blog! (www.blog.pmsa.ca) I created this (*mobile-friendly*, RSS Feed Compatible) blog in late-August 2015 on behalf of the PMSA Executive Team as a way for all of us to communicate with each other and ask each other questions/share our experiences. If you have any questions about anything at all–undergraduate courses, medical school admissions, MCAT, interviews, research/volunteering, etc., or are even just feeling overwhelmed with the journey to medical school and need some uplifting, I HIGHLY encourage you to post and comment on this blog, where your fellow pre-meds and senior undergraduate, graduate, and yes, even medical students, will be delighted to support you! Refer to the categories on the left of the blog for common topics, and post your question by leaving a comment. If you have a question that doesn’t fit into any of the existing categories, then post it in the “General Q/A” category by leaving a comment on the “General Q/A” blog post I created. A word of caution: this blog is NOT intended to serve as professional advice on how to get into medical school, and should not be taken as such. It is simply intended as an open forum for discussion and as a means for users to ask questions and obtain insight from other students who are further along in their path to becoming a physician. Neither Mohit Kumar nor the PMSA Executive Team shall be held liable for any course of action you may choose to take as a result of reading this blog. Further, please note that we are NOT affiliated with nor representing any medical schools or other third-party organizations (except for our non-exclusive partnerships with Kaplan Test Prep, The Princeton Review, and Prep 101). We encourage each of you to support each other by answering each other’s questions! Since I am new to WordPress and blogging, please bare with me if there are any flaws or errors that pop up as you are using this blog. If there’s an error message or any problem, please let me know using the contact form under “Pages” on the left of your screen in the blog, and I will resolve it ASAP! If you have any suggestions on how I can improve this blog to better suit your needs, please let me know! Finally, you will have to register to post on this blog. Please use your true first and last name as your username (or even your UofA CCID) so PMSA knows you’re not a robot (we have to approve you as a member to keep our online community safe and secure). Your CCID is your name that is right before your “at ualberta dot ca” e-mail address. **For security reasons, use your “at ualberta dot ca” e-mail address as your e-mail when registering.** Once approved, you may create a nickname in your account profile that is visible to the public.
