I'm sorry if this is a repeat - but I wonder if anyone has heard from Cambridge Health Alliance... their earliest interviews are scheduled for the week of 12/16, which is barely a week from today. I CAN'T wait for the day that I can stop checking my emails incessantly. Poor coping I admit, but this whole process is just... inhumane and unnecessary for the most part. YIKES!

Still waiting on them. Haven't heard a peep. Their notification date isn't until 12/15 if I am remembering correctly, but I don't know how that would be possible if they aim to start interviewing on 12/16!

Yikes! Sorry to hear that! Would you mind saying which track? I am still waiting to hear from them, and wasn't expecting to hear until right at the 12/15 deadline.

How many of you have the following disorder. I for sure do! Moderate!!

Waiting after Submitting Applications Disorder
A. An episode of intense anxiety and a sense of impending doom, increasing in intensity lasting a week or more with a return to previous levels of functioning following receiving notice of invite for an interview
B. During the episode, two (or more) of the following symptoms are experienced in increasing intensity:
1. Compulsively checking phone/email/Student Doctor Network forum
2. Decreased amount of sleep and often subject to nightmares regarding rejections.
3. Increase in consumption of carbohydrates and/or fast food.
4. Subjective sense of lack of competence.
5. Periods of fantasy in which the individual wishes he/she would get interview invites.
6. Other life responsibilities are completed while enduring extreme duress.
C. The symptoms cause clinically significant distress or impairment in social, occupational or other important areas of life.
D. The disturbance is not better explained by another mental disorder, the physiological effects of a substance (e.g., medication or alcohol) or another medical condition.

Specify current severity:
The level of severity is based on the number of symptoms experienced. The degree to which symptoms are present may depend on the length of the time left for completion of academic responsibilities.
Mild: Two to three symptoms of Criteria B are present.
Moderate: Four to five symptoms of Criteria B are present.
Severe: All six symptoms of Criteria B are present.

Updated!

Just to let you all know, I'm 99% sure I won't be updating tomorrow, owing to having the first part of my comps at 8 am on Wednesday! Good luck to all as you wait for your sites. 🙂

Pssht - if you can put up with all of us anxiety-ridden, chomping-at-the-bit internship applicants, you can totally whip those comps into shape. You got this! Sending you good vibes!

I'm pretty sure they can have notification dates after the 15th. I know one of my sites lists the notification date as Dec. 20th, and they seemed to notify around that date last year.

12/15 is just the recommendation. they can do whatever they want.

Love this! Very well done :biglaugh:

While I'm testing various carbohydrates to determine the exact point at which consumption ceases to be a treatment and starts to become a symptom (this may take awhile), this is the only other treatment I am aware of:

Sorry about the rejections, I had a similar day as well! At least it's after 5 though, although I know sites can really contact us at any time I feel less anxious after 5pm!

We are never safe... woke up today (12/10) to a rejection from Woodhull, which they sent at 1:42am! I too got my official Monty rejection. Email rejection by the Neurobehavioral Institute of Miami.

On another note, I got a phone call for Lincoln Medical and Mental Health Center today at 3pm and an email from Nassau University Medical Center.
Don't give up until you get a rejection, seriously! :soexcited:

With the different time zones, it seems an email could come at any time, especially with the sites working around the clock on this stuff. I woke up to a rejection at 6:59am mountain time, but it was 9am on the east coast. Glad for your acceptance!
 
Great way to way up …. 6:30 AM - generic reject from Michigan State U CC - "over 100 app's for 4"

Brighter note last night invite to Univ of No Colorado CC - personal - schedule Jan 6-15 - Skype or phone only -

here is to a better day ahead for all - no rest for the weary at all
 
I am wondering if anyone has heard from UCSF Children and Adolescent Services Multicultural Training Program (CAS)? They extended their application deadline from Nov. 1 to Dec. 1 and do not have a notification date listed on their brochure...

After I got 3 rejections in 2 hours yesterday, I initiated ice cream therapy.
 
LightBulb said:
Good morning! I drove yesterday and will be driving today, heading to my first interview. There was a scary amount of ice and snow in the mountains. I followed a snow plow part of the way though one small town. 😱

Ya'll be careful out there!

Safe travels and wishing you a good interview!

What dates are Lincoln Medical Center offering for interviews?
 
DrAQB said:
Intern Open House invitation via PDF for University of Miami Mailman Center for Child Development! Dates are either January 7th or 15th.

Hey, have you heard back with the confirmation for your date?
 
Anyone know what's going on with Mcleans? It looks like they sent out a few invites weeks ago but no rejections yet, despite their notification date being 12/9. Has anyone gotten a rejection?

Rejection (generic email) from Mt. Sinai/Elmhurst this morning.

Sigh. Me too. I need some positive news today - I've had only rejections, 4 to be exact, since my two interview invites last Thursday! I'm very grateful for my two but a couple more would make me feel a bit safer.

I have NO idea. Haven't heard a peep from them.

I said the same thing too when I got it. I wish more sites did that

Absolutely! There are a few where I know both invites and rejections have gone out and I have received neither.. and others that I know historically invite only one day and that has long since passed.. just put me out of my misery, please.

I am with you. Nothing but rejections these past few days. Three interviews so far but I would really really like a few more.
 
Has anyone else run into difficulty scheduling during the week of January 6-10th? I feel that 95% of my sites are only offering interviews that week and I'm booked back to back. I just checked my other remaining sites and their dates, and they only offer the exact same thing! It's a good, but frustrating problem to have 🙁

Yes! Although for me it's the week of the 6th and the week of the 13th. Does it seem ridiculous to anyone else that sights think they can ask for a primary date and a back-up date, wait several days before responding to your request and then assume that those dates are still free? It's not like I can say to them... hey I'd like to interview on the 13th or the 14th, keep both open for me would you? Capitalizing on the power imbalance is starting to tick me off a bit.

YES. I'm booked back to back across the country that week.
 
Has anyone heard any rejections or more news from University of Louisville SOM? I saw they called a while back, but haven't heard anything. Their notification date was the 6th.

Thanks!
 
Has anyone received an invite (or rejection?) from HCMC in Minneapolis? I've heard back from all of my other sites with a Nov 1 deadline except this one. Would love to know!!
