Members do not see this ad.

So about a month ago, Kansas City sent me a rejection letter saying I did NOT meet some requirements. Ok cool, no big deal, i have already choosen my school anyways. But today they called me to interview with them... ummmm... what the heck was that all about??? IDK, that just confused the hell out of me!

That shows how unorganized the admission staff is in the first place.

What'd you say to them??

what a mess...it's kindof scary

 

[Super21]

I said yes to the interview but i was kindda confused that they were calling. I thought maybe they called the wrong person. I don't know if I should call them back and say... "ummm.. are you sure you want me to go for an interview?? Cuz you guys already send me a rejection letter!!" hahaha....

And yes... it was a rejection letter! I should know... ive received many before! haha =)

 

[112258]

So now that you posted this, I went back and re-read my rejection letter from them. I didn't take biochem and they said maybe my cell and molecular course would count, but it didn't, so I got this rejection letter. But if yours is the same as mine, on a second look its not really a rejection. It just says before you can be considered for matriculation you must take this. So maybe they think you are taking it?? I don't know. That's funny though.

 

[czanetti]

NSU sent me an email 3 times saying that I needed to fill out my secondary application. This is after I already interveiwed and was accepted. On top of that I just go 3 PEACE ON EARTH HOLIDAY CARDS FROM THEM!!! not one not 2 but 3. I think its kinda funny but absolutly rediculous.

I have NOOOOOO clue whats going on! But oh well... I just hope I dont go to the interview and they are like... "ummm Im sorry, why are you here?!"

LOL! This is too funny! I think I would think of a reason to call them and check on the interview or maybe even an email, that way you have it in writing. Like maybe you can send them an email saying that you are coming in for an interview and you wanted to make sure that they had your LORs or something. That way you have the peace of mind of knowing that they have the right person. LOL! GOOD LUCK WITH YOUR INTERVIEW!!!

you made me scare my bf...i started rolling on the floor when i read this ...thank you, i needed this after a loooong day.

 

[Jamers]

LECOM-Erie sent me those love notes that I wasn't complete almost a month after I had interviewed and been accepted. With so many people applying to these schools, I guess it's bound to happen. A better one was, well after I had sent them a letter asking them to please remove me from the applicant pool, UMDNJ sent me a rejection letter hahaha. I think they wanted the last word.

Hahaha. I think my boyfriend is going to break up with me because of my SDN addiction. He gets mad at me because he sits in bed and I'm like "ok lemme just finish reading this post" as I laugh to myself at the computer, then read another post, and soon its 15 minutes later and I get in trouble. Anyone else experience this? For example right now haha...I told him I'd call him 10 mins ago. And what am I doing?? Posting on SDN!

LOL!!! YES!!! My husband tells me I am addicted. He says I am having a "mental affair" with someone online because I am always either on SDN or talking to someone from SDN. He is getting really jealous. I laugh to myself all the time too when I am reading this stuff and then he thinks I am crazy. This is basically my social life because I don't get out much with four kids.🙁 😀 TOO FUNNY!

 

[czanetti]

Yeah I feel ya My gf calls me an idiot and shuts off the computer screen and walks away. She has passed the I'm jealouse stage and jumped right into passive agressive. ... when she walks away I laugh and turn it back on .. but don't tell her

You're hung over now?!?!? It is 11:30 pm. LOL!!! Don't you know you should already be drinking again?!?!? (Just kidding.) Hangovers are only for the morning after, not the next night. God, I don't miss that!!! Don't you know that every time you have a drink it scars your liver? BAD PRE-MED!!! Try some zinc and gatorade for your hangover. 😀

OH by the way, I had a looong talk with some millionaires that are doctors but are really more business man... wow... i learned alot about the business side of medicine! Its exciting stuff!

Classic line from Dr. Breithaupt (biochemistry teacher at DMU) about asprin and alcohol:

"Alcohol plus asprin = bad. There aren't enough motorcyle drivers in the world for that many livers..." Dr. Breithaupt

Mine just distracts the hell out of me so that I forget the computer is even on anymore. It really is unfair but, I don't complain 😉 .

LOL!!! How are you ever going to survive in a sleepy little town like Harrogate? Not much of a night life there. I guess we will all have to go out at night and go cow tipping or something. 😀

 

[scpod]

I think they wanted the last word.

That's par for the course. I cancelled three interviews after I chose Bradenton. One of the schools e-mailed me to say that I needed to send in my secondary before I could get an interview date. The other two snail-mailed me a nice letter saying they were sorry, but the interview season was over now. Why don't you try again next year?

I didn't.

man i guess i am quite lucky with the whole bf/gf thing...
my bf is so supportive, never gets into my way when i need to hit books for the exams...he is even too optimistic sometimes in beliving in me...but it helps a lot.
I went through some rugh times before in my life so it helps to have some support especially that my family is all the way across the ocean

You have all of us here at SDN supporting you too. Just believe in yourself and you will accomplish your dreams.🙂

I didn't.

I wonder what the situation is like:

Admissions lady 1: "Hey we just recieved this letter from scpod the great asking us to please take his name off the applicant pool."
Admissions czar 1: "Does he really? Send him 15 letters spaced out over four months asking him to please complete the secondary that he already completed four months prior. After we have him good and confused, invite him for another interivew and then, that day of his interview, send him a rejection letter."
Admissions lady 1: "Excellent!"
Admissions czar 1: "Oh, and do it in blood..."


I think I watch too much tv.

Y'all are funny... I am usually just a lurker but with finals over, and a week off work and school due to some sinus surgery, I've been on more than ever.... laughing and typing despite my troubles relating to the vicodin....! 😀 Hubby keeps saying, what ARE you doing???

 

[Depakote]

Go ahead and decline the interview. Hold out for an acceptance.

 

[amathew]

oh my gosh...this is RIDONCULOUS!!!! thank god my co-worker isn't in today, or she would catch me laughing my ass off....

i got lucky in the fact that my bf is in MI doing residency while im in PA. He doesn't know I'm having an affair with SDN without his knowledge.

WHAT THE HELL.... everyone here is married or has a bf/gf... am I the only single person here?? CRAPPY!

The optimist in you should see it as "you're young, you have plenty of med school territory left to explore". A relationship has its ups n downs...especially during the application process. For example, my boyfriend's constant - so what if, just WHAT IF, you dont get in med school this cycle.....talk about a vote of confidence! It takes a toll on your relationship.

Yeah I know what you mean... being single has actually helped to stay focused.. specially when I was preparing for the MCAT! Having a gf is like another full-time job! haha...😀

NSU sent me an email 3 times saying that I needed to fill out my secondary application. This is after I already interveiwed and was accepted. On top of that I just go 3 PEACE ON EARTH HOLIDAY CARDS FROM THEM!!! not one not 2 but 3. I think its kinda funny but absolutly rediculous.

Hehe, i got the same hting, 2 holiday cards on one day, 2 days after getting the first one. And I sent them the decline offer paper too.

Just talked to KCUMB-COM Admissions to confirm my interview for January 25th they had invited me for when I received their rejection letter 1 month ago. And the y couldnt figure out who I was. They asked me to email them back the email, they didnt believe I had actually gotten an invite from them. I already knew they had rejected me but I just kindda played with their minds for a bit just to let them figure it out. They kept putting me on hold, asking me all questions like middle name, address, etc, just to make sure they were talking to me. Then they say..."Oh Im sorry, we ment to send the invite to another person with the same last name!" ... I already knew this so I started laughing!!! Plus, im really excited about attending DCOM!

But my problem is... what if they are NOT careful and send invites like this to people who have not even gotten an interview?? They just get their HOPES up and just CRUSH 'em!!! Anyways... just thought it was kindda funny!

Wow, that was so unorganized. Similar thing happened to me before from the DMV. I got a mail that stated that I got a speeding ticket from 2 years ago but never paid. When I called the court and asked this girl why the ticket was so expensive, she practically yelled at me and said I should've paid two years ago. At the end, it turned out that the ticket was supposed to be for someone else.

Anyway, this post is hilarious .

I cant belive that they would actually do that. I think you should get a sympathy interview anyway, you should have said you ewre so excited, you booked non refundable plane tickets and a hotel. I wonder what they would have done then. Or even worse, what if you didn't call and just showed up on Jan 25? You totally could have played it up if you needed.

MAn... that would have been good! Maybe I can still pull it off!

I think it is funny about some of these admissions things. For example, I only have an MD rec, and a lot of DO schools are cool with that. So I applied to NSU, got my secondary, got my interview, and on the day of my interview the admissions lady tells me my file is incomplete b/c I'm missing a DO rec, which is absolutely mandatory for acceptance. I'm sitting there and thinking WTF? you couldn't have told me that before giving me an interview? So, I speak with her and she tells me that I can send in a rec at a leter date, but my application will not go to commitee review until they get the rec. After that day, I thought about NSU, and figured it wasn't the best school for me anyway (I had already been accepted to two others). This was mid November.
About a month later, I think it was this Monday, I get a call from admissions, and I got accepted. Haha ha ha, man that made me laugh. I don't get it, a month ago they tell me you need this rec, and now I'm in without it.
