<p>Is it possible to get to the Santa Monica-UCLA Medical Center and Orthopaedic Hospital without a car? I'm from norcal so I really have no idea about the proximity of places around UCLA. Anyway, I want to attend a care-extenders orientation and I don't have a car so I need to figure out how to get there. Thanks!</p>
<p>did you reserve a day yet? I sent in my reservation three days ago but haven't heard back from them...</p>
<p>how do I know if I got in?</p>
<p>jch1989,</p>
<p>Yes, the bus will take you there.</p>

<p>Hi all, </p>
<p>I graduated from UCLA this past quarter (in the process of applying to med school) and I did CE my junior year. I took the Big Blue Bus to the SM-UCLA hospital every week to go to my radiology and L&D rotations. It's free for UCLA students and picks you up at Ackerman turn-around and drops you off less than half a block away. Just look up which bus number it is (I think you can 1, 7 or 11 to get there????) It takes ~30 min. to get there. For the interviews, I would reserve 1 hr. to get there with time to spare. Hope this helps!</p>
<p>thanks for the info guys! hey vega07, if you read their website, it says that they're not going to answer your reservation request. i'm sending my in right now!</p>
<p>i heard the care extender orientation is this wk. did i miss it? i better not. do they have an UPDATED website? they didn't even notify me for updates through email!</p>
<p>I just read about this just now, is there anything I can do to still try and get in? I hadn't heard of any orientation or anything so I didn't get any additional info..</p>
<p>hey i found out that care extender orientation is tmro and the day after 7-9 PM. if anyone wants to go w/ me, PM me. i'll be taking santa monica big blue bus #2.</p>
<p>A chance to meet DWM, how tempting!! :rolleyes:</p>
<p>Good luck to you all.</p>
<p>will there be interviews?</p>
<p>I'm going to the one tomorrow. Et tu, DWM?</p>
<p>I'm going on Saturday. Lab tomorrow and table tennis meeting Thursday. Anyone going on Saturday? I wouldn't mind giving someone a ride..</p>
<p>yeah i am going. what time ru leaving and by what means? i'm taking big blue bus but idk how to read their schedule. :( can anyone help me w/ that?</p>
<p>could someone post or PM some of the questions that come up in these interviews (not the exact questions but the types of questions).</p>
<p>Hey just some advice for everyone who hasn't gone yet... don't wait for the bus at the Ackerman stop. We waited there last night for half an hour and it didn't come, so we walked down to Westwood/Weyburn and took the Big Blue Bus Line 1. Line 2 works as well, and will get you there faster. Allow yourself plenty of time! The bus takes FOREVER.</p>
<p>The Blue Bus doesn't come to Ackerman at night on the weekdays; only the Metro does I believe.</p>
<p>i'm actually going this sat; i changed my mind. is it 10-12 this sat?? i'd rather get a ride. megathunder, do you have room for 2 ppl? PM me plz.</p>
<p>Yep, not a problem, are you gonna be near campus?</p>
<p>hey all, i ended up taking the big blue bus...
this is my 2nd time applying. how many 2nd timers usually get in?
do they save our rejected apps?</p>
