Biggest FML or what?
Started by mueladeljuicio
so i just arrived in ny for my interview tomorrow at 9 am at columbia... only problem: my suit is still in dc. what the hell do i do?
How do you forget a suit?
That is the only thing you have to bring...you literally need NOTHING else.
I hate those 3 letters...fml, 👎
Well you better start driving back to get it.
What time is your interview tomorrow? The K&G superstore on 42nd opens at 8am. I don't know if they rent out suits, but they should have some cheap ones if you have about 80-100 bucks to spare. I would also look into Men's Warehouse b/c I'm pretty sure they rent out suits. If not I'd just buy some slacks, shirt, and tie and explain what happened during your interviews. Good luck!
thanks! im afraid my situation is a little bit more complicated than i sounds...but its ok. ill borrow what i can and hope the adcom is more interested in how i present myself rather than what im wearing. thanks for all your help, though!

With your stats, they will accept you even if you go naked. Hah
What's FML, BTW?
FML = "eff my life". It's gotten very annoying.
Don't every say/write it.

This happened to me at my first interview last week at UF in Gainesville...I did the 2 hour drive from Tallahassee the night before (since the interview was 8:30AM), and was getting off my exit in Gainesville when my boyfriend called me telling me I forgot my suit. The ONE thing I absolutely had to bring besides myself, and I felt like SUCH an idiot for forgetting it. Luckily, my boyfriend was nice enough to drive it down to me so I wouldn't have to spend the night driving back and forth. Glad your situation worked out too- now we know we probably won't do that again! 😛
You can always buy one at Macy's and return it after you're done.
Hella ghetto...😀

I think this post is a good example of why you shouldn't just fly in the night before or the morning of your interview. You really need to settle in, get a good nights rest the day before. Show up at your best, not tired because you took the redeye flight, and without your nice suit because your luggage didn't arrive with you.

Ain't no other way to do it.

its hard to come in like that if your still a full time student an youre trying to avoid missing too many classes/exams... but i totally agree it would be better had i given myself more time. oh well, i got my suit back so no worries

Wow amazing stats. Amazing GPA, and the Amazing DAT to show that you actually earned the GPA. I'm pretty sure you could have walked in there in just khakis and a dress shirt and tie and still get accepted.

I've heard a horror story from a UF dental student who was curling her hair in the morning of the interview and the curling iron exploded, burning her white undershirt that she had on.
If it burned her shirt then I don't want to know what it did to her hair/face...

Let's just say she was lucky.
i dont understand how you (among many other people) have a crappy situation like that happen, and the first thing that it occurs for you to do is get on sdn...
i was looking for advice, and I got some pretty good ones; don't you think? Also, i thought i'd make you guys laugh a little... it was certainly a memorable experience~

Hey don't sweat it man, I'm sure your interview went awesome! It doesn't matter how fly you look, it matters how fly you sound lol, if that makes sense. I got my interview there coming up in a few weeks.
