Anyone else with no interviews? o_O

This forum made possible through the generous support of SDN members, donors, and sponsors. Thank you.
Mind you there are also those of us with interviews, but on the bottom of every school's interview pool that rejection screams at you from every direciton as you go to each interview.

sounds like hold. my hold letter said that my app will be re-reviewed later. at least its not a rejection, like albany

It might be, but they didn't say I was on hold. Don't you think if I was put on hold, they would have told me?

Wear a nice suit and a red tie and dazzle them with your sparkling personality. Then tell them how cool the rest of us are.
 
No school news in the mail, but I did get my new waterproof boots from FedEx!! Yay! I was so excited I went right out and walked along the lakefront through the snow to test them out. They fit, are warm and really are waterproof. It's almost as exciting as getting an interview. Well, sort of. Okay, not really.

Man I feel this sentiment expresses what I am feeling right now perfectly. 😳 I have 3 interviews but their all interviewing huge #s and looks like I have no chance at all. I dont even believe their interviewing me. maybe its a mistake and I'll find out in June: "DrZee, we are sorry to inform you that the person we had meant to interview was actually Dr Zeeee and the secretery at the office made a terrible mistake for which we apologize...yatta yatta yatta...We hope you will get accepted somewhere else this year and blah blah blah..., sincerely, Dr. Bigshot at school X" :meanie:
I got a rejection letter today from Dartmouth, sad.
I promise to be happy though, no complants 😳

I got the same hold letter. I heard it's because I'm out of state.

Does it matter that I like New York? Can I be an honorary New Yorker? I got rejected from suny downstate. I'm going to blame it all on my state residence.


yeah i wanted to go to new york also and got rejected from downstate, where i really wanted to go and got sunny hold. do you really think the hold is due to our cali residence? is there a chance to get off?

true, but re-review usually means hold. either way, i hope that your re-review is successful
 
No interview invites yet, mostly because I got my letters of recommendation sent November 15th.

I'm waiting to hear from these schools:

Brown
Case Western
Emory
Stanford
U of Conn.
U of Chicago
Wake Forest

Thank you.

You can check my mdapplicant profile. 😉

As an international applicant, I only applied to those that accept international students.

I had my LORs submitted late, too. So I'm in the same boat, shinenjk. Now get out of my boat.
Of course, I didn't apply to such good schools, and my grades aren't as good, but I'm cautiously optimistic about this whole thing.
Good Luck!

Don't feel bad, I'm from NY and got rejected from Downstate, and I have no clue what's up with Upstate. Buffalo hasn't even reviewed me yet. And Stonybrook, well I'm afraid to call them.

If I could, I would buy you one of these for your trouble, kind sir. That way everyone will know you are a man of style.

Better that than this. (Frankly, the best parts are the descriptions. The last line is classic.)

Don't forget Bubbleyum.

Cripes, Drexel is a life-line for us.
 
congratulations madonna!
love drexel. hopefully all of our interviews will go well and will lead to an acceptance.
 
Yah. Drexel loves everyone but me.


Nobody loves me..
everybody hates me...
guess I'll go drink eggnog & get roasted.....

you can't say that with an avatar of two of your loving children directly staring at your "nobody loves me" post!

Cool, sounds like fun.
I think it's just the two of us here.... (commence awkward silence and crickets chirping)
But I don't know if I count...
 
Ok. You're right.

How 'bout:
No med school loves me..
They all hate me...
Guess I'll go drink eggnog & get roasted.......
 
I didn't apply to Drexel.

I am willing to go to an interview if they invite me though!
 
hey yourmom, that was a runner-up for my avatar, but I couldn't resist the screen-shot I took of naruto when he's in the hospital. saaakurraa-chaan ahahaha.
 
So much talk about Drexel. Got accepted months ago...dont know if I want to go there yet. Got accepted to other schools, so I think I'll just wait til May 15th to decide. Sorry folks
 
argh!

sorry about the new thread when this existed way back.

i't s jan 12th, and i haven't even had an interview! anyone else want to start making spells/voodoo dolls/deals with the devil/etc?
 
no allopathic interviews yet. I've been complete for a while. It's ok though. I really would like to hear from my state schools though. Good luck everyone. And to those of you holding multiple seats, that's mean! 😡
 
got put on the "intermediate" list at suny buffalo. i don't know what the eff that means but I'll take it--esp. since I'm out of state and have medicore stats. i swear one of these days when i'm checking my email or opening my mailbox i'm just gonna fall over and die. i can't take this much longer--i wish they would just all reject me now if that's what's going to happen.

I have had nothing but rejections or silence from the allopathic schools. 🙁 although I was interviewed and accepted at a DO school. Yea! Hope to hear soon so I can get on with my life. 😱

Can't go wrong with sacrificing virgins. 😀
 
I had a friend last year who wasn't called for an interview until late January, interviewed in March, waitlisted, and then accepted in June. His stats were pretty avg (29 MCAT, 3.6-3.7 GPA, avg ECs, no research, white male). So there is still hope!

:laugh:

gee! could kill two birds with one stone, too...sacrafice a virgin, AND open up a seat at a school...i'd venture a fair number of the hard-core traditional premeds who have a gazillion acceptances haven't done the deed for the first time yet...

oh...that was bitchy of me. oh, well. it's the stress speaking.

😛

Lady, you're funny. Also, there was a poll about this a while ago. A full 30% of the respondents hadn't done it. Yeah, that's freaky. I would hate to see the look on one of their faces when the first time they see a woman's woohaa (the technical term) is on their cadaver in anatomy.
Oh, who am I kidding. I am waiting to see that happen and watch some stuck up dork piss their pants when they see it. I'll have a camera aimed squarely at their face.

And we find another one of Desired's disturbingly amazing talents: recording awkward footages of equally awkward individuals in equally awkward situations for them.
 
me too belong to this thread! only rejections or silence so far. :scared:

wow...i'm surprised that 70% HAVE...but i guess there's a lot of pre-med incest, so it's a lot with others of their kind. i can see it now...in the chemistry library, the guy goes over to the girl and says "the red's all used up from my four color pen, can i borrow yours" followed by similarly related courting rituals leading up to signing up for the same shift together at the local ER and soon enough, it happens.

there's that whole thread about if people would eat a feces hotdog to get in, and somewhere someone says something about how she'd do that because it wouldn't be as bad as sexual favors. to which i thought "wha? honey...you're not doing it right."

anyway, yeah. another day of no mail, no email, no phone calls. hopefully it was better for someone else out there.
