Just one in-state interview, lucky interview thread!
 
This is only going to give me false hope. I have been on hiatus since 8/15, thats a long long time. One interview, can I get at least one more please?
 
Alright lucky thread, you've worked for me twice now. I have faith in you. Please send a few more my way. PLEASE!!!

2 hours after my first post in this thread: rejection letter in the mail from GWU. The saddest part is, I thought I actually had a shot there. They put you down nicely though, I must say.
 
ive been on hiatus since i was complete in mid-august
my application isnt that bad...is it? 😕
 
3 interviews so far, 3 weeks since the last, 3rd post in this thread..

That has to mean something right..?
 
C'mon lucky thread! Please send me some interview goodness from Mt Sinai/NYU/Case/Northwestern/UCLA/UCSF/BU/PENN/Dartmouth/Baylor! Heck.. any of them will do!!

:luck: Sending good vibes out to everyone! :luck:
 
ok, something, anything except a rejection please!

now i'm going to sleep 😴😴😴
 
haha i joined this thread to whine about my lack of interviews and now i realize people with interviews are hijacking it to use it as a "lucky charm"?? i feel so cheated...🙁 thought there were others to wallow in shared misery...hehehe
 
I think originally it was a place to complain but now it is a temple 🙂 Speaking of which... luck! :bow:
 
Time for a beautiful Wednesday full of interview invites.

Just 1 (or more!) from a top school please.
 
I'm getting the feeling that I'm just not going to get any more interview invitations. The silence from some schools seems to indicate that I'm just not that good of an applicant and they've already put me in the "reject" pile. I reread some of my secondary essays and BOY WAS THAT A MISTAKE. My essays are terrible. My Yale essay has THREE typos. They must be laughing heartily at my pathetic application down in New Haven. I've been feeling really awful lately. I need something to cheer me up... Come on lucky thread!


Good luck to everyone :luck:
 
Haha, yeah, that's why I don't re-read my essays unless I"m going to interview at that school. I am Queen of horrible typos. I once turned in an essay assignment that had one paragraph just CUT OFF. Apparently, when I had gone to erase a comma, I had highlighted a few extra sentences and deleted them too without realizing...awesome right? Yeah...

I haven't had time to worry about interview hiatus yet. It's been a few weeks since my last invite, but I'm nervous enough about the upcoming ones this week that I scheduled that I don't have extra stress-power left over to think why I don't have more interviews. I'll be back on this thread freaking out after next week though 🙂
 
:bow:
Got one today...thank you oh powerful, magical thread.
 
nothing for more than a week. agh!!! i'm not expecting to get into HMS or Yale, but some news from Emory, NYU, Mt.Sinai, etc. would be greatly appreciated.
 
hit me up with some MD interviews magic thread...its been way too long
 
So I have gotten two interviews but am waiting on a few schools which are at the top of my list. I was once told calling the schools could be to my advantage. Does anyone have an opinion or know if this works? And what in the world would I say?
Just throwing it out there.
Thanx.

lol.....I mistyped UCSD in my essay for them! I actually misspelled the name of the school and they still gave me an interview. All hope is not lost. Although my guess is that they still laughed at me when they read it....
 
waiting is killing me.... please I need an interview:luck::luck:

I cut/paste my Pittsburgh essay and edited it for Michigan and almost submit it with "I believe these factors would make me a great fit at the University of Pittsburgh." but barely caught myself before submission. They probably sensed it though, which is likely while I'm on hold 🙁

I'd like to know this as well. Many schools clearly say "we will not do status checks by phone or e-mail, blah blah blah, be patient, we will get back to you" (insert other vague procrastinatory (sp?) statements here)

So do people still call while they're sitting around waiting for an interview? What do you say?
 
oh and... please give me some good luck, magical interview thread.. i've been waiting 3 WEEKS (weeks!) since my last invite. this is killing me!
 
crazy! after not hearing anything for 3+ weeks, i got 2 new interviews this week! i just need one more from one of my top choice schools and i will be a happy happy person!😀
 
blAHHHH (is that enough to do me for the luck part???!?!?)

Alright. Hopefully this thread is as lucky as everyone says. Complete for almost a month and nothing yet. Come on interviews!
 
For some reason today i just became desperate to move back to NY, so please please please NYU, Mount Sinai, and Cornell, get back to me, i'll do anything!!! thanks!

NYU seems to be sending out invites slowly for specific 3 week periods with only a couple weeks notice. So be prepared to have only three weeks notice 🙂

Thursday = Northwestern day. Lets go!
