I did my SMP (special masters program) at BU.

 

[neurofreak]

thats weird because when i called them (and messaged them) they said they wouldn't be calling anyone, just email and snail mail. i wonder if the interviewers are just doing this on their own, or if they're told to.

 

[st0w]

BU SMP graduate, I suspect. PaperMate's profile lists it, and it would seem likely they might give special consideration to those who've already proven themselves there.

Edit: Looks like we're all submitting at the same time with this one.. hah 😀

It probably depends on the interviewer. When I called a couple of days ago, they told me that they don't have a set date for mailing anything out yet. Jeez. So many contradictions.

 

[PaperMate30301]

Yup, I was just wondering about that. Can people let us know if they are in the "regular" pool or not if they get accepted? And congrats papermate!!

Hey thanks. Hope we'll be classmates next year. 😀

 

[dr midnight]

what is the different pool????? your from boston??? or you have a masters?? please clarify

 

[paradocs we are]

Aww thanks! Hope so too!

yeah, i think ive been told a different thing every time i call them. lol

All those question marks makes me picture this really perplexed and anxious individual sitting behind a desk and biting his fingernails.

Wait, that individual is me????????

It adds to the aura of mystique that surrounds the process. I mean, look on the bright side - it's resulting in a very active SDN thread for us all to post on. Yay for...uh... making new (equally-frustrated) friends?

paradocs we are - yay, I'm glad that our minds are on the same wavelength. Now I know at least one person out there appreciates my off-center sense of humor.

 

[neurofreak]

haha i like how we're adding 2 posts every 30 seconds on this thread.

haha how many people other than pre-meds are there at 1:34 am that are refreshing forums every 30 seconds to see if somethin new has com in? what a life

 

[dr midnight]

I hope I get a call I finish my masters in May oh please CALL

 

[eagle34]

we gotta remember that only 60 people get accepted now...and most get accepted in march. still a great chance even if put on hold

[eagle34]

capitalizing is not that important anyways...since when do doctors need to spell and capitalize correctly

 

[SilverMoon]

Mind your timezone, good sir. It's only 12:37 on this end of the glowing screen.

Paradocs we are - Single, yes. Male... Not so much. Alas, our love was never meant to be...

eagle34 - Sorry to disappoint, "Juliet and Juliet, star-crossed lovers" doesn't have the same ring to it...

 

[paradocs we are]

If only I didn't like men way too much, SilverMoon!

Eagle34, wanna be my new sdn crush?

 

[eagle34]

ahh sorry, i guess im just an east-coast person...sometimes i forget that other time zones exist ahah. and as for the juliet-juliet love...if it were to exist, MA would be the perfect place.

 

[SilverMoon]

If only I didn't like men way too much, SilverMoon!

If we both end up at BU, I can be your wing-woman when we go to bars in search of men 🙂

Eagle34 - Looks like Paradocs we are has moved on already. 😉

 

[paradocs we are]

If we both end up at BU, I can be your wing-woman when we go to bars in search of men 🙂

PERFECT! Now that's what I am going to look forward to.

HAHAHA, SilverMoon! Sorry but it was a conditional e-love. 😉

 

[eagle34]

If only I didn't like men way too much, SilverMoon!

Eagle34, wanna be my new sdn crush?

Well...as long as you're not using me to get over silvermoon, i have no problem with it.

 

[dr midnight]

you wimps it only 8:45 here

 

[st0w]

Ok, so now how many of us are going to be checking the status page constantly until hearing something, even though it seems the status page doesn't update and I'm sure SDN will be flooded with info once BU actually does start notifying the masses?

 

[dr midnight]

you know I will

 

[eagle34]

it's going to be a long couple of weeks...

 

[paradocs we are]

Nah, I don't believe in rebounds.

you wimps it only 8:45 here

Nothing but the east coast time is right. And the west coast needs to catch up!

Ok, so now how many of us are going to be checking the status page constantly until hearing something, even though it seems the status page doesn't update and I'm sure SDN will be flooded with info once BU actually does start notifying the masses?

I don't plan to check my status page unless someone posts that their status page has changed. Instead, I plan to have my phone in my hand at all times for the next week so that I do not miss the call that will never come.

 

[eagle34]

i dont get cell reception at my house...which is just not cool. so unless they leave messages...which they probably dont...i wont know until the letter or more likely, an e-mail comes

 

[dr midnight]

Yep I could use some good news I just got rejected from Gt today I am really upset But Boston would make my Year!!!!!

 

[eagle34]

i'm waiting to hear both from Gt and BU...its just painful

 

[paradocs we are]

I have zero acceptances so far. Now that's painful!

 

[dr midnight]

I hear you good luck ok you take GT and leave BU for me

 

[eagle34]

I have zero acceptances so far. Now that's painful!

sorry about that...i've been accepted to UIC but have had 7 other interviews and have 2 more lined up...i really wanna hear from BU and Gt...the waiting game for all of us is just EH

 

[paradocs we are]

I hear you good luck ok you take GT and leave BU for me

If only it worked that way...

 

[SilverMoon]

Well...as long as you're not using me to get over silvermoon, i have no problem with it.

I know we completely de-railed the thread, but this has definitely made my night. (Though I can't believe you got over me so quickly, Paradocs!)

you wimps it only 8:45 here

Want to throw some daylight hours my way?

 

[eagle34]

I hear you good luck ok you take GT and leave BU for me

haha if i get into Gt and BU....it will be a very difficult choice

 

[dr midnight]

I have Had 6 interviews and 3 acp... with 3 more interviews scheduled. 5 rejections, 4 pre-interview hold and 8 silence I have a choice but would withdraw from them all for BU

 

[paradocs we are]

I know we completely de-railed the thread, but this has definitely made my night. (Though I can't believe you got over me so quickly, Paradocs!)

It's not you. It's me....

I'm the wrong gender.

 

[eagle34]

It's not you. It's me....

I'm the wrong gender.

ahh the infamous its not you, it's me quote...the drama starts already...

Nice job on the acceptances. Do you have an MDApps, out of curiosity?

It's not you. It's me....

I'm the wrong gender.

Haha, nicely done. Very nicely done...

ahh the infamous its not you, it's me quote...the drama starts already...

And thanks to the wonder of SDN and the internet, it'll be visible to hundreds of stressed pre-meds who really just want to know when they'll get the "Welcome" message from BU.

(Though, does that mean that if you were on facebook, you and Paradocs would be "E-It'sComplicated"?)
