For those looking for interview confirmations from UF health Science center, I received mine around 9:48 eastern time!

I got an invite too! 1/5 is my top interview choice.

I'm hoping for one of the December dates, because I'm in DC for the fall semester and would love not having to fly back out here in January. However, if I get a December date it will probably be my first interview which is nerve-wracking because I like this site! Fingers crossed you get the date you want.

Ahhh multiple people have heard from them but I haven't gotten a rejection yet/ I applied to the comprehensive track. Hopefully I hear from them soon! And congrats!

 

[ICantStopHittingRefresh]

To be fair, it hasn't attacked yet, but I'll keep you posted.
Also, your screenname is amazing.

I *might* be catastrophizing over here. Can't imagine why...

I've been lurking for a week and catastrophizing in private. If we talk about it that makes it better right?

Did anyone who got an interview at Southwest Consortium and who confirmed their date hear back yet with the second follow up email with details? Should I wait till the 15th or prompt? Just paranoid they overlooked my reply.

I woke up to a "quarterly student loan update" reminding me how much debt I've accrued.

Wishing good luck to everyone today!! And safe travels to all who are traveling for Thanksgiving

[White bear suppression]

Need some consultation! I have an interview on the 17th in Albuquerque and got another for the 18th in Des Moines. The only flight to Des Moines leaves at 5:35 and my interview ends at 4:30. I can arrange for a ride to the airport and I looked and it's about 7 min away. Will I make this flight? Should I possibly ask to duck out a little early to make the flight or does that not bode well?
