- attacks on URMs.
- No extreme neuroticism.: This should be a wholesome place for premeds to discuss premed-related topics. Being overly neurotic is unhelpful and adds personal stress in addition to placing the burden of your stress on others.

- Do not ask us if School X or School Y is better for undergrad. Do not ask us what you should major in (hint: it doesn't matter).

- No common/recently posted questions or discussions.: Please read our [Wiki](https://www.reddit.com/r/premed/wiki/index) prior to posting your question. If your question is not answered in the Wiki, use the search bar. If you *still* can't find an answer, go ahead and create a new post.
- If you make a post that belongs in one of our weekly megathreads, such as the essay review megathread, your post may be subject to removal. Repeated violations of this rule may result in a ban.
- No off-topic posts or comments.: Pre-med humor is encouraged, but please keep your memes specific to being premed. Political posts are not allowed unless explicitly related to premed. Overtly off-topic posts and comments will be removed.
