2 invites in 8 minutes while at the gym. Damn, if that’s not a sign I need to come here more, then I just don’t know.

I think this post (along with their post for UW-Madison's UCC) was a troll. Same thing is going on with that posting, and it's way before their deadline and their historical notification dates.

Also, to nerd out here...the name is "ty pwonair" aka type I error...

Wow, I wish I had enough free time to troll the Student Doctor Forum. Maybe someone needs to peruse the Pleasant Activities list in the DBT manual and find a new hobby. :annoyed:
 
Someone I know that's in this process told me that Suffolk Uni sent out a message notifying applicants that they should have invites sent out around Dec. 7th- I hope that helps someone!

Has anyone gotten an interview offer for this site/track? I'm still waiting to hear back and it looks like people have gotten rejected yesterday and today but I haven't heard anything either way yet. Just wondering if invites have gone out yet.

Hi, there. My cohort mate and I were offered an interview with the Menninger Clinic track last week:
-Baylor College of Medicine
-Track: The Menninger Clinic
-Invite
-11/21/17
-How You Were Notified: personal email
-Interview Date(s): Jan 12, 22, 26
-If & How You’re Staying Sane: Funny- what's that?

However, I will offer this encouragement: :Last week I was so disappointed because the Albany Consortium had sent out invites in a mass email, and I didn't get one. Yesterday, I got the invite. This process messes with your head, but until you get the official "no," there's still hope!

Oh gosh I hope so!! I've been waiting on UW-Madison and figured that it must have been a rejection given when they posted their interview!
 
NeuroAPPIC said:
I'm not sure what UCLA is up to this year with their invites, and it seems like they're sending mass emails that may be specific to the tracks people applied to. Has anyone heard from the neuropsych or geropsych-neuropsych tracks?
Click to expand...
I havent heard for neuro yet either

How are y'all handing the "tell me about yourself" line?

I'm sure the TD doesn't want to hear about my current habits:
"I love to refresh my email and check SDN. I also spend several hours a day reviewing APPIC and my excel doc that tells me information about your site. I enjoy cuddling with my dog, while binging tv shows, so I can successfully cope with anxiety and imposter syndrome all while comprehensively ignoring my other professional and personal responsibilities."

"Enough about me. This is really about you, right? I'm clearly a well adjusted individual who can cope fine under stress (as I rock back and forth). But.. How are YOU holding up in these trying times?!" I find that if you just add "in these trying times" to anything it works. I'm sure all TD and the #forumfam would agree that this is the way

Wow! That is so mean. Like I can't. Can they be reported to SDN?

It may be a lurking TD looking to see how we can take feedback. I'm not expecting anything nicer on the job (if I get one womp womp)

Sending everyone positive vibes for the rest of this week!! I have a question - so I applied to Texas Child Study Center & people have received interviews & rejections, but I've heard nothing. What does everyone make of this? I'm confused. Am I in some pile somewhere...like maybe a backup? That's my wishful thinking. My anxious thinking is saying they never got my application. I need ALL the desserts. All of them. Good luck to me finding interview attire...

i am in same boat with them! so if they missed your application they missed mine too

FeelingsDoctor said:
I'm in the same "pile" and I'm guessing they are either 1) slow to send out rejections, 2) doing rolling invites/rejections, or 3) keeping a waitlist just in case. At this point, I'm leaning toward number 1, but hey! Who knows!
Click to expand...

^Ditto! The silence from them after they've already sent out so much is actually driving me nuts!

I hate that part! Knowing the rejections are coming but not hearing anything. It's like getting the "we need to talk" text from a soon-to-be ex but not getting dumped until the next day. WE ALL KNOW IT'S COMING, STOP WITH THE GAMES.
(Currently waiting for 2 rejections, and handling it gracefully, clearly.)

Your name captures what is happening for me right now, all the feels! But it's like "omg, another one?!" and then it goes "#wandsite, it's okay!" and then back to rocking in a corner.

Omg yes! I see clients in a few and am like they are grateful for you and appreciate what you do and then wham rejection email! We will both find magnificent wand sites
