Well guys i'm basically done with the application process. Already finished 5 interviews and now i'm waiting on december 1 😀. Hopefully everything will pan out well. I saw 5 great schools [UAB, MCG, Temple, VCU and NOVA]. I'm honestly making a list to systematically rate each one. Anyway good luck to everyone else and it feels good to be done 😎

Good luck! You're one of the SDN contributors I hold a great deal of respect for. I hope all your work pays off. 😀
 
If I may say so, you've done really well in the application cycle. You applied early, got lots of interviews done, and can now sit back and relax for a bit. Even better, you'll for sure hear on Dec 1., and then you don't have to respond until Jan 15, so you can ponder your decisions over the holiday break if needs be.

Congrats and keep us all posted!

Wow! Good job! I hope you get in all places you interviewed at. It would be awesome if you got to pick where you went, instead of what usually happens!

Good luck! :luck:
 
Taco go out and have some fun, treat yourself to something nice for doing well during this hectic application cycle...it must feel good to have finished everything already, I'm sure you will get into all the schools you interviewed at...where would you want to go if you got into all five?
 
Thanks guys 🙂

I'm really debating where to go. Every program has so many positives. I am sure Dec. 1 will clear lots of things up.

I'm in the same post-interviews-pre-December-first situation; got done last week (except with 3 schools instead of 5).

Nothin' left to do but hurry up 'n wait! <insert thumb-twiddling smiley here>
 
Well done Taco. What did you think of your interview at NOVA? I was there the day before, and I really thought Dr. Lippman and Su-Ann were cool.

Taco,
How much did you spend in total for your 5 interviews?
 
DrTacoElf said:
Hmm with everything included: AADSAS, DAT, Travel, Secondaries I would say around 1K.
Two more questions... How long did it take UAB to invite you for an interview after you submitted your secondary? How long did the UAB interview last?

I think my interview at Nova went pretty well.
😀
 
Congrats and best of luck wherever you decide on.

About 2.5 Months and the interview was a 25 minute 5 on 1 panel.

Yes I concur. I also thought Dr. Quinton was neat, he told me if I was accepted we could go scuba diving together 😀 I'm uncertified as of now however.
 
Best of luck Taco and Trypmo!!!! The hard part is over🙂, that is until Fall 2005. Congrats!!
 
Hmm, wow. When I applied, I submitted my application Christmas Day, at 4:24am. My last LOR was received by AADSAS on 12/31/03. You'll get your admissions letters before I even got my application in, LOL. Good job, and best of luck to you guys.
