Class of 2014!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

This forum made possible through the generous support of SDN members, donors, and sponsors. Thank you.
Well, take your time to make it good. Don't want to rush things, do we? 😉😉

smart ass 😀

i actually already completed the secondary itself. but for some reason you cant pay it online, which i was going to do with my credit card. you have to mail a check, along with a photo and a copy of your passport, which makes it more difficult. i don't have the cash to pay for it at the moment. unless i choose to pay my bills late instead. i'm considering it actually.
 
embarrassing = when your boss walks past you standing at the copier and sees you pressing a few sheets of paper to your cheek and you say "i couldn't tell which ones were the copies and which were the originals so i'm seeing which ones are warm."
 
now that i've had two rejections and no invites i am spiraling into a neurotic state . . . convinced that my app is not good enough for anywhere. realistically i know i am overreacting but i can't help it with all of you doing so well.

i also wish i had the $ to submit the last few secondaries i'm currently sitting on. especially rush . . . sometimes i think the universe is attempting to communicate with me through my satellite radio. the other day i was driving, and thinking about how I needed to send a check to Rush. (well, i was about to drive past it, so that could have been why I was thinking about it.) But right then the song "Rush" by big audio dynamite came on the radio as I was driving past Rush . . . freaky huh? :scared:

okay maybe not. but still. ive heard various theories that people get into Loyola or Rush but not both. and since loyola apparently hates me, i better focus on Rush!

I feel you with the rejections -- 4 rejections, 1 invite (auto-invite b/c I'm in-state w/ UNC). I just remind myself over and over that a half dozen friends from my school were sitting on multiple acceptances last march after applying in OCTOBER. We're too early in this game.

as for those theories, that makes me want to fill out Loyola and Rush now -- they're my last two (well, plus Emory, but that's taking a back burner until the Chicago ones are done).
 
urgh. my cclcm and case interviews are on monday and tuesday week of nov 9. my osu int is on nov 2... but cant reschedule...

Why not?

Ohio State invite. Yahoooo!!!:soexcited:

Ohio State seems pretty awesome. The Dean will probably call you to congratulate you on your interview, and when I rescheduled it the office was really nice. It's a good one, congrats.
 
Congrats blue onthe interview!!

Anyone interviewing this week? Or is it a quiet one?

Ps I'll take an interview. 🙂
 
congrats! see its just about being patient 🙂

or maybe the universe just responds to more specific complaints . . . guess who just got their loyola secondary?? 🙄 FINALLY

ok so let me try being more specific and rude: "Damn UIC, why do you hate me so? if you arent going to interview me then why don't you just leave a flaming bag of poo on my doorstep instead??"

:xf::xf::xf:

Baylor on Friday for me.

w00t! Good luck w/ it!!

I'm trying to think of a way to combat the stress associated with this process...and I read Julie and Julia this weekend while at the beach...so now I'm thinking of working my way through a bunch of recipes in my spare time.

Not French cooking, but rather 100 ways to use a strip of bacon.

my pants are suggesting I work my way through the south beach cookbook instead :laugh:

any suggestions for ways to while away the time between neurotic email checks?

PS--I got that site from thisiswhyyourefat.com -- a great site if you've never been.
 
So, note to self: Next time, don't schedule flight after interview so late. Checkout was quite a while ago, but at least I can chill in the hotel restaurant/bar thingy until I have to go to the airport.

What's the catch?
 
i will never hope for another email 🙁🙁

just got a rejection :cry:
 
Only e-mail today was an invite from SLU, which made me pretty happy.

Quick question for those with like 7 or 8+ interviews... are you going to all of them? I straight up cannot afford that many interviews! I'm considering not flying to Rochester for the interview to save the money... it's making me sad. 🙁

yeah, an interview invite in your inbox in the morning sure makes your day. It made mine today.🙂

Especially, when the dean actually calls you.👍
The dean at every school should give a congratulatory call like Ohio State does. It makes you feel so damn special.😀
 
OMG Penn State Interview!!

THE MAGIC OF BACON FTW!!!!
