Jessie and Joshua in a Medical School????

My friend Pierce, while we were still in talking terms, had told me in confidence that Jessie was going away to medical school. He just posted this news publicly on his blog, although he qualified it as a rumour.

I have unconfirmed info from someone claimed closed to Jessie Chung that both Joshua and Jessie has left to study for a medical degree. Cannot confirm this because I have not talk to her since CNY. I’ve no further details on this, so, don’t ask me for details.
Anyway, I’ll be going back to my usual self now to continue looking for projects and money to survive.


As far as I can tell, most North American ACCREDITED medical schools require a minimum of 3 years of pre-medical studies or in the life sciences in an accredited university (with a GPA of close to 4.0 - near perfect), a suitable GMAT score and letters of references. People with previous "other medical degrees" - particularly in alternative medicine (i.e. naturopathy, chiropractic, cosmetology, etc.) are not generally considered good candidates, although those with ACCREDITED engineering degrees and ACCREDITED Ph.D.'s in life sciences are welcomes. Naturally, alternative delivery degrees (i.e. on-line, correspondence, etc.) are frowned upon, such is the degree of conservatism in the medical fields.

There are universities in the Caribbean and in Eastern Europe that offers medical degrees, but they are often unaccredited and some are considered diploma mills ... I guess, here we go again.

Or this is just another annual stunt?
