So I just realized after posting my first Canadian adventure entry , that I actually should be writing my first med school related post. Today I bit the bullet and bought all my text books and equipment for my first year. I forgot just how expensive books are! After spending about an hour searching for the best prices and used books deals, I dropped $400 (with tax and shipping and handling) on 6 text books. I was honestly thinking that was pretty bad until I started buying all my equpiment (stethoscope, scrubs, etc) and I quickly spent another $1000. Eeks. Turns out, becoming a doctor isn’t cheap! On a happier note, I heard the good news from the financial aid office. I’m an in-state student. That tranlates into a $20,000 savings. Yay!
