It's come down to the final push.. Can't express how exhilarating this is. Who knows if I'll even get in but this is definitely an experience to remember. After the 1st, it all goes by so much quicker. Let's hope it goes by quickly with happiness and not sadness ha

Just realized that December first is a Tuesday. Will we find out on the Monday or on that Tuesday? Or the Monday of the week after..?

Me and my roommate (also predental) already have a plan to take a celebratory shot for each acceptance we get. I've gone to 7 interviews and she has gone to 8, so if we were both fortunate enough to impress the adcoms at our respective schools enough for an acceptance and the timing is as clustered as it seems... it could be an interesting morning haha

I would kill to have a pre-dental roommate. Although we would probably just lay awake in bed every night and talk about dental school like we're ten year olds sharing a tent on camping trip
But youre sounding like that's a bad thing! haha

So how do you guys plan on revealing acceptances to the family? This is my second year applying so I'll have to find a way to make it a big surprise IF I do get in. Let's hope I do

It can be cool sometimes (like when we were studying for the DAT together or when we were deciding on where to apply and debating the pros and cons of different schools) but we are eskimo sisters turned dance team friends turned sorority sisters turned roommates who just happen to be predent so the topic doesn't really come up that often haha.

As a re-applicant too my plan (if accepted) is to not tell my parents and if they ask I'll say I didn't get in. And come Christmas time I will buy them apparel from the school and give it to them. This is all assuming I can keep it a secret which is really hard for me.

I have no idea. Maybe just scream really loud (bc I have a tendency to do that) and my mom will run into my room bc that always happens lol. I think I'll be too excited to tell my family in a creative way.

However I'm still thinking of how I'm going to announce it on social media!

"Hey Mom!"
"Hey hellofuturedentists"
"I got into dental school!!"

That's probably how it'll go. Then maybe I'll get some congratulatory cookies in the mail a few days later :)

"Hey hellofuturedentists" lmfao. I'll probably keep it a secret as well.. Knowing ppl, they'll probably stop asking where we were accepted once they do come out.. Hah

Lol thankfully my mom does actually know my real name. I've told everyone who's asked Dec 1 is the first acceptance day. Now I just have to see if they remember.

Lol imagine the expressions. Specifically if you're across the country and they don't know wtf you're doing with your life.
 
I don't want a lot for Christmas
There is just one thing I need
I don't care about the presents
Underneath the Christmas tree
I just want you for my own
More than you could ever know
Make my wish come true oh
All I want for Christmas is you (refer to an acceptance letter, call, or email)

Or better yet, in four years:
"Hey parents, my dental school graduation is coming up"
"You went to dental school?"
"Oh my gosh. Did I not tell you guys?? My b"

That is probably the most realistic response for a good pre-dent, because an anticipation of their child sitting on 200-550k dept in near future would terrify most of the parents! Just kidding :laugh:
 
Lmaoo you guys always have some funny responses to any post haha! What would I do without the SDN fam??
