<p>arez, i dont have to be professional for anyone here. the only reason i got angry is eadad made it seem like i thought prestige matters a lot. i explicitly said in my first post that it hardly matters. also, the comma comment was just to show how ridiculous it is to correct another poster’s grammar. as long as its easily read, its fine. the only things i omit are capital letters, apostrophes, and a few commas.</p>
<p>and BDM, i also did not comment on the practicality of this argument. once again, i addressed that two applicants being equal is extremely unlikely.</p>
<p>i dont understand your guys mindsets. the ONLY way to argue FOR prestige mattering is to assume everything else is equal. we KNOW that its unlikely, but how else can someone argue that position? why bother even discussing this then?</p>
<p>Would UC Berkeley have prestigious value to go to a Good Medical School (e.g. Harvard Medical School, Johns Hopkins, UC San Francisco, Stanford Med)?</p>
<p>zzzboy keeps stating over and over what his impression is. Nothing else. No one here is a med school adcom to state, so matter of fact, what these people actually do. I will remind us all, that you are all stating your own positions. If there is a med school adcom here, then it would be to only ONE school. I realize that to speak for all schools is absolutely ridiculous. Prestige may not matter to adcom school A and may be crucial to adcom school B.</p>
<p>Personally, I am biased towards prestige mattering a lot…</p>
