Got the call!!!

 

[ragweedking]

Got the A as well!
Edit for those asking: initials are CM

 

[deleted1054719]

Are y'all being called or emailed?

 

[throwaway2020202112345]

Looks likes it’s calls.

 

[MediocreClimber]

Time to stare at my phone for the rest of the day lol

 

[spottedcory]

When did all of you interview? anyone from mid/late Nov?

 

[Chromatica]

Can y'all post your interviewer's initials? I'm wondering if these are all from the same interviewers... Sorry neuroticism is currently at 200%

 

[deleted959514]

I thought I answered a spam call and was about to hang up, so when I heard Dr. Goodell's voice I panicked. But well got the A!

 

[KatsuCurry]

For those who were called, have your portals updated??

Nothing changed on my portal!

Congrats on the A!

Did your call show up as “no caller ID” by any chance?

 

[onelysosome]

Got the A call as well! It was from my interviewer
Edit: caller ID Boston, MA and interviewed in mid Sept

 

[throwaway2020202112345]

Congrats on the As! Has anyone who interviewed in mid/last Nov heard back?

Interviewed mid-October

 

[hbyo]

Did they say when emails would be going out?

 

[onelysosome]

Did they say when emails would be going out?

Next week!

 

[Chromatica]

Haven't received a call yet. Guess I'm rejected...

Let's not do this yet please lol

 

[spottedcory]

Haven't received a call yet. Guess I'm rejected...

They were very upfront that the majority of the class would be selected in March, with a small number of As going out early in winter

 

[SiberianIris]

Haven't received a call yet. Guess I'm rejected...

By the nature of phone calls, they can’t all be done at once, I expect we’ll see more today. Also, last year, people got accepted via email and never got phone calls.

Edit: in addition to the majority of As going out in March

 

[Earthworm Slim]

Yeah, I’m confused. Are they only doing calls or is it like a mix of calls and emails throughout the week?

 

[MediocreClimber]

Yeah, I’m confused. Are they only doing calls or is it like a mix of calls and emails throughout the week?

Based on last year's thread, it seems only some people got calls. It appears they gave interviewers the option to call and so some people just received the email the next week.

Edit: also too early to assume all calls are even done for the day

 

[thetenthletter]

Will there be more A's going out prior to March?

 

[SiberianIris]

Will there be more A's going out prior to March?

They do two big waves - this one (calls today and emails next week) and the March one. None in between.

 

[Maybedoc1]

I glance down to see a call from an unknown number, my heart skips a beat as I answer it.... "Hello? " I ask..... A Greenpeace telemarketer greets me.

 

[srstudent]

Anyone accepted with an early Nov interview?

 

[business>premed]

I thought I answered a spam call and was about to hang up, so when I heard Dr. Goodell's voice I panicked. But well got the A!

congrats! when did you interview?

 

[Veggie Lover]

[mastmagan]

[MediocreClimber]

Anyone who had Dr. Vitamin D get a call? IYKYK lol

 

[Maybedoc1]

So our the individual interviewers calling people? Does that mean that Dr. Goodell was doing interviews?

 

[nettiktac]

Accepted just now! Got a phone call from my interviewer! Interviewed 9/23

edit: just wanted to add that I didn’t send in any updates at all so do not stress about those!

 

[SurgOnc1d]

Anyone know if there are more days in December for Acceptances? Hope we don’t have to wait until March

 

[Earthworm Slim]

Anyone know if there are more days in December for Acceptances? Hope we don’t have to wait until March

I looked through last years thread and it seems that phone calls continued over the next week and then they started sending out emails/updating the portals. Some people received acceptances that never received phone calls as well!

[galaxyuser]

BU being my only II, I'm desperate. This week I was dreading the wait, but oddly, now that decisions began rolling out
I feel in peace (?). I think the panic will return over the weekend though ._. ...

 

[business>premed]

to everyone who got acceptances- congrats! Did any of you interview with an interviewer with the initials B.S?

 

[Futuredrmd]

Hopefully there are more As before March
