At Yale, they have 2 computers in the MD/PhD office/lobby area. A couple of us were waiting for interviewers to come grab us. I was waiting for the MD/PhD director to come get me. I waited about 15 mins, and still no word, so finally I went over to the computer and got on the internet. Of course, I went to the studentdoctor website and started browsing the forums.
I found a thread about another school at which I had recently interviewed and liked a lot. I was in the process of writing a post about how I liked that school a lot and how the interview there was.
Suddenly I hear the MD/PhD director directly behind me. He said "Gradient Echo, are you ready for me now?"
I froze for a sec and frantically closed the web browser down. I think it was too late though because it felt like he had been standing there for a few seconds before he said anything to me. I dont know for sure if he saw what I was writing, but nevertheless I tried to avoid talking about Yale in particular and luckily he didnt ask me to explain why I liked yale.
I got put on the MD and MD/PhD waitlist, got accepted off the MD waitlist, and then withdrew myself from the MD/PhD waitlist a couple of days later.
