I had a GREAT time at NYLF. Would do it again in a heartbeat.
The only part i didn't particularly enjoy was the visit to UNE. I thought it was a 2 hour drive for a tour of some college that gave the history of its buildings and stuff. Besides, our bus was late and we only got like 15 minutes to talk with the professors about health careers such as PA and anesthesiology.
Anyone from Boston 2nd Session want to leave some comments?
It was hard getting used to at first, with all the boring med cessions day after day. But once we actually got off of babson, and started doing other stuff, the trip was totally worth it.

I took the advice from BU Medical School's Dean for Pre-med advising... he said to get involved in the healthcare system... so i am now a volunteer at my local hospital and i am scheduled to shadow a physician for a few days this summer...I can't wait, I am so excited!
Med sessions tended to get a little boring...it was always "talk with the person next to you about the plenary speaker". I did find the PBL exciting and the Medical Ethics Caucus and Public Health Symposium were okay.
