Facebook Effect
Since Scott posted about joining Facebook recently, I figured I’d link this article. Basically, it’s a study that says Facebook users tend not to do as well in school. Admittedly, the researcher herself admits that it might be some other third variable, but there is definitely a correlation.

1.) I’m on facebook more now than undergrad.
2.) I’m turning more into a toddler the deeper into med school I get – itching for any study distraction.
3.) My grades have dropped throughout med school.
