Inquiring minds (my med school apps) want to know: what's your official occupational title at Harris?

Just write "
The Project". They'll know.

I'm pretty sure it's Software Engineer or Uber Haxor L33t.

All the paperwork will tell you i'm a "Software Engineer 1" but I'm actually their regional Pimpmaster General.

I'd already put down "Software Engineer" but I'll try to put "Pimpmaster General" in there somewhere.
I'm getting fucked on the "letters of rec" front so if anyone has any ideas I'm open. Apparently Tulane as an institution doesn't write letters for anyone who isn't a current undergraduate.

Lame. Well if you know any current med students they are usually not bad candidates for personal rec's in particular. I know that the norm is often 1 lab prof/boss 2 science teachers and 1 or 2 humanities or volunteer-related people (to show the softer side of Winter). You can get those rec's sent in individually from the prof's in sealed envelopes to each school if you dont have access to a insitutional med advisory board (like me - us BMEDs dont have that luxury in our dept : / ) It's more work but it's more personal anyway. did i like totally manage not to provide any useful or relevant info?

That's like when we used to ask our highschool P.E. coach "what time is it?" and he'd respond with "you mean right now?"
