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

This forum made possible through the generous support of SDN members, donors, and sponsors. Thank you.
Sorry about that Blue!

Thanks guys! One last thing (can you tell I'm freaking out?) Should I just put on my heels when I get to the school, or should I try to feel out when my interview will be and put them on then? I remember reading on an older forum that someone changed/switch something (pantyhose I think) before their actual interview, but spent most of the non-interview time (tour, info session) without the thing they needed....

I guess I'm unsure of how available my things will be in the admission office.
 
Luun, you're making me feel uneasy now about just going in my suit tomorrow and not bringing anything else.

If I drive, I'll have my car at least somewhere with all my other stuff there, but I could also just take the free shuttle from the hotel (which is what I was planning on doing). I wouldn't have any other clothing options, but is that really just for comfort or expected? I don't care if I get blisters or whatever. Or even if I'm at the place with the med students afterward in a shirt and tie (minus the coat, obviously).

wear your full professional clothes at the start of the day (minus the tour part, if that is an option)
 
Well, I guess I'll figure out whether to drive or take the shuttle tomorrow. I'm leaning towards driving as of now - that should ensure I'll get back. :laugh:
In case people are busy all day tomorrow, good luck! :luck:

Seems like tomorrow has interviews for many, and I'm glad that mine doesn't start until 12. But still, I'm waking up early to prepare myself.
 
my top 10 games (in no particular order):

Cincinnati v Oregon St
Nebraska v Va Tech
Florida v Tennessee (just to see how badly TN loses)
Saints v Eagles
Cowboys v Giants
Jets v Patriots
Georgia v Arkansas
USC v Washington
Florida St v BYU
Oregon v Utah

No LSU v ULL??????

I took my heels off for the tours and the random downtime that I wandered. Otherwise I left them on because they match my suit better.

Dude, Don't mind me.... I just tend to focus/freak out for things as they come up. 🙄 You'll be FINE!

Cool, I like new toys.
 
Alright, getting ready for my interview today. Gonna drive to make things easier on myself. After all, it's only 1 mile away anyway and I'm pretty sure I know where to park.
 
jimmer have you looked up the cost of your cclcm trip yet? cleveland is ridiculous. my trip seems to come up to over $500

i really want to drive but the return would be pushing it. i can easily make the trip on sunday but eghh

Nice, thanks. I'm so pumped - I'm coming back from a 7 mile run and an hour long weights session.

:laugh: yeah right.

Just realized - Blue, do you always get up this early b/c I thought your school didn't start yet? And if so, is SDN what you do this early in the morning or are you actually productive? Sorry, just curious.

I do all my homework and readings in the early hours. 😀
 
That works, too. The only reason I don't do that is because I'd rather wake up as late as possible regardless of when I went to bed. Plus, it really sucks if you have printer issues in the morning.

Yeah, I'm usually in the lab in the evenings, so when I come back home, I don't really feel like schoolwork. Hence, I just wake up early to do them.
 
I had a nightmare last night that my coat had all kinds of mud on it, but it was too late when I realized it was there.

But then I checked it this morning and it was okay.
 
Alright, I'm all dressed up now. Think I'll wait a bit, then drive over there and just be really early. Why not, I mean it's not like I have anything else to do.
 
good luck oh your interview!! i have one tomorrow morning.

anyone else on here gonna be at southwestern today/tomorrow?

Woot! Don't know how it went, but I'm definitely glad it's over. 🙂 GW is niiiiiiiice. I definitely like it here. Good luck on yall's interviews.

I haven't looked at it yet. Is that airfare only?

i cant believe the nba is gonna have a lockout with their referees

Their refs are terrible, I can't believe they think they deserve to do this. I think they are by far the worst in any of the major sports.
 
Yeah, I just checked out airfare to cleveland, it's pretty expensive. Looks like it's gonna cost me about $400 for airfare only.

so i had this airfare tracked on bing travel alert and its supposed to drop to $180-ish soon according to their prediction

So I have to send a resume to LSU-Shreveport... this is lame.

Did you guys notice that many of the secondaries asked for the same information that you put on the primary?? Do these schools not read the primary at all??

That is probably the most amazing thing I have seen recently. Thanks for sharing! I had never heard of Bing Travel....

:laugh: The worst was when they asked for my MCAT score. Really? What's the point? You're obviously gonna check it with the AMCAS score...

It's possible that they have different people read the secondary, or that if you interview, your interviewer will only have access to the secondary. Or they might just want you to write it again for no good reason. 😀
 
hey all.

Just got an invite for Virginia Tech!

Excited.

Now my wife wants to take the chance to combine South Carolina and Tech so that we can stay with the in-laws for a couple of days.

It'll be fun.

Gotta go to a brass quintet rehearsal.

Yay music stuff!

🙂
