ANNOUNCEMENTS
2nd GENERAL BODY MEETING
Wednesday,
April 29th, 8:00 – 9:00 pm PC Theater
At GBM 2 we
will have two guest speakers.
1) Are you unsure about getting into an US medical school? Do you want your
options to remain open? Do you crave adventure and travel? Then perhaps a
foreign medical school is right for you. Bill Wingard from the Career Center
will be coming by to talk to us about medical schools abroad. There are more
doctors working in the US
who studied abroad than you think. Many of these schools provide
the same education as an US
school and you do not need to take any additional exams or classes (and most
importantly they are easier to get accepted to!).
2) Kaplan will be dropping by to share their deals on the MCAT and perhaps
giving away some prizes.
As always you may pick up your shirt and pay your dues.
Food and drink will be provided!
OFFICER APPLICATIONS
END DATE:
April 24th
As Officers in PASS, we hope that you have
enjoyed all of our events and activities.
We’re hoping to provide even greater experiences in the future to all
our members! Therefore, for all of you interested, Officer Applications for
2009-2010 are now open! It’s a good way to build leadership skills, qualities
that many med schools look for.
For the files, please feel free to view
them at the PASS Website underneath Member
Center-> Downloads.
You may apply for two positions. Please
note that to apply for President, you must already be a current officer.

Coordinator:
Isadore Tarantino (izzy@ucsdpass.org)
Saturday, May 23rd, 10:00 am - 1:00 pm
Finals
are coming up and I am giving everyone
the opportunity to earn social points for STUDYING!! That’s right, you read it
correctly, social points for studying! Come on down to UCSD campus and get your
studying on before those darn Finals. Enjoy a great morning of cramming
in those last few hours of reading inside the Biomedical library at
UCSD before the big tests. The great thing about this social is that
there will be other PASS members there that I bet are even in those same
horrible/dreadful classes that you are taking. This means that is not
only a social but a free group study session if needed. Feel free to come
and study for an hour, grab a bite to eat and head on back to some more
terrific studying!
