Same here man. Have a good flight. 👍



I don't know if I would have done it, but if your record's not that good and you just wanted to shake things up I think you did that. (Not saying I wouldn't have done it either.)



Guys, we have a request to move the draft back one hour, so it would be 7 PM PT on 10/28. Anyone not OK with that?

i like the trade (esp like you said, if the team was losing)
Brees will obviously have a solid year >>>>>> Favre (he falls 2nd half of the season)

and with sanchez losing confidence, jets are gonna run the ball so I like TJ over addai + ryan grant.

brandon marshall is a tough loss but i think he will cool down
 
Procrastinated all yesterday and today in reading a paper for tomorrow's discussion and doing Micro homework. Just finishing the Micro now, and haven't started reading the paper yet.

So unmotivated, and having classes you hate makes it worse.
 
my point exactly. i caught like seasons 1, half of 2, and season 3 on surfthechannel but lost interest and time
 
Yeah... I wanted to shake it up a little. I'm 3 - 3... We have a weekly high scoring contest & I have Ray Rice as my other back so with the combination of Jones, Rice and Brees I hope to hit some big weeks.

My WR are holmes and housh.... :barf:

But I wanted Brees.

Plus if I make the playoffs, he has a soft schedule against TB and Car the last two weeks. 👍

Oh, and next weds at 7 pm looks good for the fantasy draft for me! Hopefully a lot of us can be there for it live.
 
whew! good thing you pointed that out haha! ok so 7 pt aka 10 et is still good
 
Packin' for my Pitt/OSU trip. I interview on Friday and Monday; trying to fit everything I need into a garment bag + backpack so I don't have to pay to check.
 
GO PHILLIES! now if i end up in philly for school i will seriously have to consider becoming a fan.

Sweet.

Looks like the garment bag thing is doable for me. I've only ever done it for a 2 day trip, and that's easy. It's pretty stuffed, I hope they don't tell me to check it.

Are you going to Mayo?
 
no U of MN MSTP. this is the first interview I will have to check out the city so I'm excited. Mayo rejected me like 5 days before my primary

i am a phd student trying to develop a mathematical model to analyze medical school acceptances. This will probably be a 3 year research project - which i hope will be published in a top tier academic journal.

I will appreciate hearing from you on the following:

1) since i know nothing about the field, i first need to interview some experts in the field, maybe 7 to 8 individuals, who will know about how medical schools make acceptance decisions. Would these be deans? Admission officers? Admission consultants? Authors of books on how to get into medical school? Someone else?

2) i need to know what variables affect rankings of medical schools in the popular media. Any ideas on what these variables might be? {just letting you do my homework for me 🙂 } i want the mathematical model to be as simple and elegant as possible, so i would like as few variables as possible. Suppose (hypothetical!) mcat scores affect rankings of medical schools and gpa does not affect rankings, would it be unreasonable for me to presume that schools would place more weight on mcat scores than on gpa?

3) since medical schools discriminate on the basis of residency, i need to identify 3 states where it would be the easiest to get into medical school. Any consensus on which these states are among posters on this forum?

Thank you all.

Check in online, and print your boarding pass.

Bypass the check in counters - don't let anyone opine on the size of your bag - the security check people don't care how large your bag is so long as it fits through the machine.

At the gate, if there are space limitations (say it is a small plane), they will take your bag and load it FOR FREE - and then you pick it up planeside, and skip the baggage carousel BS. Just watch all the businessmen - none of them check their overnighter bags, and many of them are larger than the carryon limit...
 
Ahhh. just withdrew 2 apps. so surreal. I felt like that Orbitz commercial trying to click the button.

1-3 was a loooooong time ago. And I agree, 1-3 wasn't terrible, but really, it started going waaaaay down hill when Izzy pulled the shennanigans to save Danny(?)'s life. She must've failed the ethics class.
 
success! all the european countries in 2:30🙂

good luck to those of you with interviews!!


and luun, i'm glad i'm the only one home-that video made me burst out laughing
 
lol, I'm glad you guys enjoyed it. haha

Staring at an empty inbox, hoping to hear from around 7 schools that are taking their sweet time offering (or not) an interview. I am starting to lose interest in pursuing any of these even if they offer an invitation...after 7 ints, and more money than I want to know, I am officially sick of interviewing.

With each passing day, I am starting to believe my cycle is over - I have an acceptance at one of my top choice schools - so what I need to do is shift my gears, quit hanging around SDN so much, and start preparing for the fun that starts next August.

I'm glad to hear it's almost over for you. I need to get in gear and try to pass my classes so I can graduate. I'm getting owned in my classes.:laugh:

About to get ready for work! Woohoo!

I was hoping that I might wake up to an interview invite or something, but alas, nothing. I'm okay with that, but I just hope I hear something soon!
 
i don't know how to finish this sentence: most people don't know that i can.... (i.e. michigan). lol

Good idea. No ticket people to deal with and ask how big my bag is.

I know it will fit in an overhead, no worries there.

I did it earlier this week on a flight.

Now that airlines are charging for checked bags, more people are carrying stuff to the plane. The joke is that, on the smaller planes and even on the regional jets, they stand at the door and take everyone's bag, put a tag on it, and put it down below - no charge, and no way your bag gets lost.

Yeah, I've been on quite a few of those. Pretty weird. I guess it's because of the overloaded overhead bins these days.
 
Brooklyn, you lied about the whole getting an interview tomorrow thing....

But I'm getting pretty confident that my interview season is going to start soon.... I mean come on!
