Class of 2013!!!

This forum made possible through the generous support of SDN members, donors, and sponsors. Thank you.
Amcas received my LORs...about dang time!!

I'm such a *******... Attempted to send mine from Interfolio to AMCAS on Monday, and somehow managed to not click all the way through the delivery. So as of this morning, they are finally on their way 😳

How long did it take yours? Interfolio told me a week...

Its ok I have you beat....I sent the wrong documents to 5 schools...and didnt realize it till a week later.

I sent the AMCAS LOR request forms instead of the actual LOR to 5 schools...grr


It took mine 8 business days.

Haha. I'm still a little worried.. I didn't send out LOR requests from AMCAS bc my letters were already recieved waaay before it opened. However, I did create all the files for letters in AMCAS and matched the numbers up from Interfolio (the Interfolio ID and the AMCAS LOR ID) for my delivery, so hopefully they'll figure it out.
 
Hey guys!

I decided not to go into work today since things are really slow and I have some serious secondarying to do. Yesterday I finished two, and today I'm going to try and top that. We'll see!

I have a question about LORs though. Mine were all dealt with by my pre-med committee, and I received an email from VirtualEvals about how they got them, and how they were sent already everywhere (except UCLA cause they don't take VirtualEvals...not exactly sure what I'm going to do about that). Anywho, I know AMCAS takes forever to show that they've received them, but what about the individual schools? How long should I expect for it to take for the schools to just look up the letters on VirtualEvals?

Gooood job LET! Get 'em done! 5 hours to go at work. Finally got confirmation that Interfolio is sending everything over to AMCAS..my secondary, fee, and one transcript have been recieved so the file is coming along! 🙂🙂

Hope everyone's having a good day. It's hump day!

Yay! Passed the halfway mark!

Sending in a secondary today, so I'm pretty happy about that.
 
Haha you lucky East-Coasters...I'm still sitting at work (I had to go after all, I forgot a patient was coming today...ooops!) and I finished my Sinai application but can't submit until I have a picture taken 😎. Which is annoying. I am NOT photogenic so staged pictures are never a good idea....

Once this is done though I'll officially be done with all the "easy" secondaries and will have to deal with the ones I REALLY don't want to deal with. Gah!

Pictures... Ugh! I had headshots taken for my senior voice recital, so I used those last year, and they are definitely being used again...

29 minutes left at work!

That's nice! I didn't get any headshots done for my recital, which is too bad. That would really come in handy right now.

I officially became one of those people who doesn't finish a secondary...gave up on Pritzker cause that essay about how well you fit their mission statement just was not working for me. Oh well! Down to 28 secondaries now...

and yay for being almost done with work, gradu8! Any more secondaries today?

Nope 🙁 South Al is a snail mail, so it'll take awhile. Alabama's first day (MSAR stats) is August 1, so it won't be headed my way for a couple weeks... Tulane is... Tulane 🙂)), and I'm in limboland with the TN schools so it's just sitting and waiting right now!

Time for work.....grr.

Good luck c/o 2013
 
Thank you!! 😀

I really hope we can all meet on the interview trail by the way! Wouldn't that be awesome?

Ok, sorry I'm going all high school musical.

I think it would be fun to meet up with other SDN people on the interview trail as well. I do have to admit it will be a bit strange to put a face with a user name...

Hey, did we ever settle on a secret handshake and/or challenge to figure this out on the trail?
 
complete at 2 more schools today...GW and ECU...hooray!, still waiting on BU though...it seems like I should get it today or tommorow, but we will see.
 
Well, crap! They took it offline to update. Says it should be available mid-June, so that's any day now.
Sorry!!


Yes, it would be fantastic to meet some/all of you along the way! 🙂🙂

Hope everyone has a great day.. it's Thursday!!

You mean you don't really show up with a bowler hat dancing? And likeclockwork isn't actually a ghoul of some sort? Well, that's just sad. Soon you're gonna tell me blackdoctor2be isn't actually a panther.

No worries, gradu8! Really, I have enough to do even without the Tulane one. I should be doing the applications I have instead of worrying about the ones I don't have yet.

Today I did my Dartmouth one and my NYMC one, AMCAS got my letters, and I'm complete at GW and Georgetown. Good application day, I think 🙂

Good progress!! It's a decent day at work.. I'll be glad to see Friday (workday part) come and go... It's Orientation & Preview for Fall, and everyone is gonna be pissed when they don't have money/enough money/any money. The line at my door will be insane from 8-5. But thennnn it's the weekend!

I'm on call tonight. I call it "sparkle pager" call for those of you who watch Grey's. My attending OB/GYN calls, I decide if I want to go or not 🙂🙂 Not like I've ever turned DOWN a call, but it's cool. Hoping for lots of babies tonight!
 
And likeclockwork isn't actually a ghoul of some sort?

It's Stupendous Man, actually. No, I won't wear a cape and cowl to my interview, but I will bring along my tiger who is my best friend. 😉
 
I figured we could just figure out on here who has interviews on the same day, and then individually contact each other if we wanted to meet.

That sounds like a much more adult thing to do than "the rocketship."


Minus 5 nerd points though.

dang it...so it was supposed to be available last month??? Tulane that is.
 
Yeah, I reused the "year off" one but I do need to write a whole new "educational timeline" one...I know it's optional, but come now. It's not optional.
with 12000 applicants, Im pretty sure its Optional, lol....i wonder whether thoseschools that get crap loads of applicants actually read all the essays and Personal statements.
 
I guess we're not getting any more today...how annoying...

which ones do you guys think we're getting tomorrow? Any thoughts?
Hopefully none...I still gotta complete UCF and Uky
 
Hey everyone. I've been gone for a few weeks and I feel very lost coming back here. So hows everyone doing?
 
Ive hit writers block, and am procrastinating on SDN until something comes to me....AHHH

I need sleep.
 
ok im done with essay 4 of 7 for U KY......This secondary F***in blows!!
