Haha I've been that way for every step in this process. Sitting in bed at the hotel right before an interview...triple checking the date to make sure I'm there on the right day. Then when they are looking for my name tag I still panic..."what if it's not there???"Thanks! I'm still in shock and keep rereading my letter make sure it says I'm in.
I'm so glad I'm not the only one that has been doing this LOLThanks! I'm still in shock and keep rereading my letter make sure it says I'm in.
yep, have been going to my portal almost every day since early november hahaI'm so glad I'm not the only one that has been doing this LOL

Good times.
Sorry to hear thatRejected once again. Apparently i cant interview to save my life.
If you already got some interview invites I wouldn't worry so much. we gotta hang in there!So, I was complete at most schools 9/1. Heard back from a few schools in November, but it's been dead silence for a few weeks now, which would be fine, if I actually had an acceptance somewhere. The 3 month mark is still prime time...right? At what point do you guys think II's start to slow down?

I'm still waiting for an invite....
similar as you, the very last day in august.Maybe, but the neuroticism is real and it's not over until there's a big fat acceptance letter in my mailbox!
When were you complete?
Who knows.... after the two interviews I thought I absolutely bummed I was accepted, the one that I thought it went perfectly and I was on top of my game with no rambling or talking about boats and food I was WL!Rejected once again. Apparently i cant interview to save my life.
This made me laughtalking about boats and food
UCLA did send a wave of pre-secondary rejections via email already so if you didn't receive that, then there's a chance that you're still in the running.Might as well update. Today has been a reject-fest for me.
LizzyM ~66, nontrad, heavy research
1 II (Pitt)
1 Hold (GW)
9 Rejections- UCLA (assuming because no secondary), USC, UCSF, UCD, Boston, Penn (assuming because of Status of Death), UWash (OOR), U of Wisconsin (OOS), and Rochester.
23 Silence
Still trying to keep positive.
Yes Mr. MadScientist R u planning on going to UA or one of the DO's?Congrats on your acceptances, assuming the MD one is UofA Tucson according to previous threads I've seen you in. I may be biased, but I think Arizona is beautiful
Updating because why the hell not.
LizzyM ~65, nontrad, URM
1 II --> 1 MD Acceptance
1 Hold
5 rejections (6, if you count the UPenn status of death)
7 silence
SO happy and thankful for the one acceptance that I have! At the end of all this, I am going to be a doctor. But it's still frustrating to feel so completely confused and in the dark about how admissions decisions are actually made. Some days I feel like a stellar applicant, other days I feel like adcoms must have opened my file and laughed.
CONGRATS!!!Do you mind sharing your non-numeric stats? I actually just added UCSD last month because I heard a similar story and it would be great to stay in CA... How long until you heard about II after the secondary? Way to go!!!So - I was just accepted to UCSD - my absolute top choice! I've been basically convulsing in excitement for the past hour. With a LizzyM of 64, I literally didn't think this was possible! About to withdraw my other interviews and send in my matriculation paperwork. I hope you all get those spots!
Thought I'd post here since I've been lurking this thread all cycle!
LizzyM ~65 (3.4 cGPA, with a 3.1 sGPA with D in Calc, D in Physics 1 which I'm retaking, C in Physics 2. MCAT 31).
I didn't expect to get far in this cycle because of my stats but I was very fortunate.
Applied to 13 MD, submitted 8 secondaries
1 pre secondary reject, 1 post secondary reject.
3 II resulting in 3 ACCEPTANCES!
I've gone ahead and withdrawn my applications from the other three schools I haven't heard back from as well as one acceptance from a school I wasn't 100% feeling. Now debating between state school and UVM because they're both perfect for me just very different in price and location.
I really think my letters and extensive employment in different medical fields helped me be so successful. I'm scared and excited and anxious for it to be 2016 already! Woohoo!!!
Which schools have sent out rejections so far? Hopefully you'll get a few interviews soon
at least no rejections yet waiting for my first interview as well! Good luck.
anyone with a LizzyM <70 hear anything from Jefferson?
Bold move only applying to five schools, but clearly it worked out very well for you! Congrats buddy!
UPDATE: I AM GOING TO BE A DOCTOR!!!!!!!!!!Hello friends!
I hope you will accept me into this group (LizzyM just at 70). I have been following you all for the past few months and it has really helped me stay sane. I hope by posting here, I can contribute to this amazing thread and give hope/comfort to others!
WA resident, ORM
LizzyM 70
MD II: 4 (UW, Tulane, RWJMS, and OUWB)
Misc: Mayo LOR request! (Yes, I actually count this as a major achievement in my cycle. No shame!)
Rejections & holds: tons!
Silences: even more!
Wishing us all so much luck in these upcoming months!!
