Class of 2013!!!

This forum made possible through the generous support of SDN members, donors, and sponsors. Thank you.
I can't decide whether to cancel my Albany interview next week or not...

I don't really know much about the school, but keep hearing negative things. What do you guys think? With a VCU acceptance in hand, what would you do?

cancel...ive canceled like 5 interviews, and i dont even have an IS acceptance..im just sick of interviewing.

I kind of wanna cancel Penn State, because I do not want to miss too much class, but they were so nice, so I feel bad... and I am also going broke... I have heard good things about them, but getting in post interview is not too high...

By the way Chad, with VCU in hand, I would cancel Albany. IMHO though...

Yay, we are all Class of 3013!

Congrats on VCU! And I would cancel Albany if I was you. It doesn't sound like it is a priority over VCU in your mind. This way you get to spend less time/money on travel, and maybe someone who is really excited about Albany will be given your interview spot instead.
 
god forbid, i'm not going to wait another 100 cycles =)
Actually, I think you'd have to wait 1000 more cycles :laugh:. Congrats to Grad, LET, chad, and everyone who's heard good news so far. It's so exciting!!!!!

Serikk, congrats on Vandy!
Yah, it was a mistype... oops... and 1000 cycles seems like a long wait to find out whether you'll be a doctor or not...
 
Congrats everyone!

Who is still waiting to hear??? :luck::luck:
waiting on a delivery man today who may never come, my dog barking at random things isn't helping me stay sane! though I got my 2nd osteo acceptance today, at least the DOs love me, hehehe
 
I decided to cancel my interview at Albany. I just emailed them - I hope they have enough time to invite someone who really wants to be there...

Thanks for the advice!

What do you say to cancel the interviews?
 
What do you say to cancel the interviews?

I basically said that I appreciate the invite and since I have been accepted to one of my top choices I have decided to withdraw my application from further consideration and will not be attending my previously scheduled interview.

I sent an email... I actually feel kinda bad about it and I don't think I would be able to call. :laugh:
 
I just canceled an interview too, and I also feel really bad about it. 🙁 I hope I didn't waste too much of their time.

It has been a long road, but all of the hard work (and anxiety!) is paying off! I am sure you will be joining us as an official member of the Class of 2013 soon! 👍

It HAS been a long year 🙂 And I'm SURE your acceptance is right around the corner!
 
To all the folk who are in already:

I think we should all focus our energies on praying/hoping for BD2B since he's been so supportive for us through everything (including our whining 😀). Who's with me?!


Sending lots and lots of love and luck on your behalf to Howard riiiiight now!!!! :luck::luck::biglove::biglove:

Good luck BD2B. I'm thinking good thoughts on this end.
 
OHHH I missed a lot!!!

Serikk- Vandy = awesome. I knew you'd get in!
LET- I think I already told you...but I'm so proud of you!!! I hope you're celebrating!
Gradu8in- AHHHHH!!!! Congratulations!!! 😀 You're going to be a doctor!
Chad- IS acceptance, that's amazing! I would cancel Albany, if I were you.
BD2B- I really hope you get the invite by the end of the week!
Redrumi- No acceptance for me, either. I'm trying to stay patient...and sane, although it's harder than anyone can imagine. Happy thoughts! Just think happy thoughts!

Congrats to all accepted and good luck to the rest of us!!!

Good call. 👍

This one's for you BD2B: :biglove:
 
was just celeb rating.... a little inebriated but eh 😉
 
Congrats to everyone accepted and :luck::luck::luck::luck: to everyone waiting! Remember, this is a marathon and not a sprint!
 
*sigh* Time goes so slow when you're...waiting to hear from schools.

I know how you feel, my next ones will not come for about a month...
Pianola, did you hear from the schools you were waiting to hear from today?
 
Pianola, did you hear from the schools you were waiting to hear from today?

No, I have no idea what happened! UMiami said they'd let us know today (acceptance, waitlist, or rejection)...I'm kind of debating calling tomorrow.

Tough call, you know?

And yeah, after that, it'll probably be months before I hear anything new.
 
Ugh I hate waiting for things.

I gotta say, I'm kinda glad about the way my decisions are spaced out. I got Vandy yesterday (omg still insanely exciting!!! Aaaaaaahhhhh), and I'm supposed to hear from UCSD as early as next week if all goes well, Sinai in November, NYMC in December, and Duke in Feb/March. So hopefully I'll have a decision to freak out about/ look forward to almost every month or so. Although of course at least one of them will be a rejection and at least one of them will be a waitlist, so there may be more waiting in store...


sigh.....

You have Vandy in the bag, so you have no reason to worry.

Oh absolutely, I'm way more excited than worried, I'm just musing. The waiting will never be over. As it is, I spent too much time today online looking at pictures of the school and curriculum stuff. Yaaaay! But still. Waiting. No fun.

And woohooo gradu8! That's the perfect, most ideal position to be in. That's not weird, it's lucky, and wonderful!
