2011-2012 Mount Sinai Application Thread

[nmgal]

Haha, I had directly responded to it and not via the internal system. uh-oh. Well, I interviewed and everything went well so I guess they don't put too much stock into it.

Or I am already rejected.

I'm sure you will not be rejected because of that, it's probably just easier for them to confirm their schedule or something if you use the internal system. No worries.

Peacoats never go out of style, can be worn with casual wear as well, and are usually better for the real cold than a trench coat: http://www.jcpenney.com/jcp/X6.aspx...oat Black&ci_src=14110944&ci_sku=710491be240a

I was wondering the same thing haha. My body provides no insulation so I will need to be prepared.

I am really excited to visit this school!!! Can anyone tell me their opinion on the class atmosphere at the school? And for those who have never lived in NY before, how the transition was? THANK YOU for your time in advance.

Just a few more days till decisions start right? Good luck!

Can't wait! Goodness, when the thread was bumped, I freaked out! Especially since I've been obsessively checking my email every hour or so at work since it officially became November. We should hear back any day now... Good luck, everyone!

 

[nmgal]

Just a few more days till decisions start right? Good luck!

I think the first round will go out 11/15... and then the next round won't be until 1/15. good luck!!

 

[pooghe]

So people what's the word on the street about decisions? Will they be coming out this week?

I just got an interview day survey today... they might give us some time to fill those out first before sending a decision... so probably not tomorrow. Just a guess.

Good luck, everyone!

Check the weather the week before. You could be lucky and it's 60s or you could be unlucky and it's 20-30s.

 

[Nakita]

I think the first round will go out 11/15... and then the next round won't be until 1/15. good luck!!

Last year it was 11/20 on a Saturday... the year before it was 11/4 on a Wednesday... I think the projected 11/15 date is just an estimate, but I do hope they come out soon! Good luck, everyone!!

same but it would be so nice if it was today, right now

 

[ywlke]

same but it would be so nice if it was today, right now

Do you remember if they said if it would be by phone/e-mail/status update or something else?

 

[raltima07]

I really really would like to go here!!! Pick me Sinai

 

[Nymphicus]

Do you remember if they said if it would be by phone/e-mail/status update or something else?

No I don't, sorry
I was too distracted by the lady telling us how she liked to eat and watch tv. I liked her

 

[ywlke]

I remember that although it might have been some other topic on my day.

On my day, she talked about all of her favorite kinds of cookies. The chocolate-white chocolate chip cookies, I believe, are her favorite, in case anyone is interested in sending her a batch to help put her in an even better mood during this admission season...

I think we either interviewed on the same day or she really likes talking about her cookies. Jessica was so funny.

 

[raltima07]

She talked about cookies my day too! What date did you guys interview?

 

[lxz]

silent rejection? ? ?? ????

 

[here123]

We don't find out until before Thanksgiving, so there's still a week left to go. The 15th was just a SDN poster's approximation.

Best of luck.

 

[chronicidal]

the committee is meeting today.

 

[anon324]

Do you know the last interview day they will be considering for admission that first round?

 

[lxz]

This person here is just waiting for an interview here

 

[chronicidal]

they're not considering last week or some part of last week.

 

[raltima07]

Do you know when decisions go out?

 

[chronicidal]

Do you know when decisions go out?

no

 

[raltima07]

no

Why not? That is just unacceptable

I hope you caught the sarcasm. Thanks for the info!

 

[virelangue]

Do you know when decisions go out?

I was also there today and I *think* they said sometime before Thanksgiving. Good luck

BTW, for all those interviewing later, they said decisions will be in mid-January. No specific date given unfortunately.

 

[Entadus]

Hoping for my first acceptance

;(

 

[MapleBacon]

I interviewed on 11/2, and Jessica specifically said that we would hear not before 2 weeks (i.e. not before today), but definitely before Thanksgiving. So it's Day 1 of obsessive email checking for me...

 

[luckyducky87]

Has anyone else been waiting for more than 10 weeks for a response post file completion?

Post-interview.

Post-interview.

Thanks for letting us know. Sorry that you had to hear bad news

 

[raltima07]

Sorry dude. I guess its following last years patterns of rejections, waitlists, then acceptances.

Ywlke, when did you find out (like exact time)? And in geneneral, when did you interview?

Thanks!
