Just wanted to let you know, I'm from Chicago, but for some reason, I'm definitely pulling for the Phillies in the NL. Chase Utley is the man, and I want to see if Pedro can come back and dominate in a playoff game. Definitely going to scope that one out!
 
Got interview invite at Rush!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 😀 Now I have 3 coming up!! That's 3 invites in 3 weeks, one per week. Hope it continues for a couple more weeks!

And to all of you with acceptances CONGRATS!!!
knew things would turn around for you!🙂. good luck
 
Goncrats dw and dingy!

Ohio State rejection. 👎 I guess I overshot my prediction there.

Since it's only my first one of the season, I'm okay with it - I just wish I wouldn't have wasted my time/money and had a crappy 2 days in Columbus.
 
Windows shuttered, steam on full blast, box of tissues close by, refresh button even closer.
🙂

hmm. it seems that the 2014 thread is full of contagious people :laugh:

I have a mock interview today with my prehealth committee guy. i am all snorty and sniffly and my nose is red and gross. and my throat feels like sandpaper. hooray! at least today is the mock and not the real thing. and at least it's friday.
 
If we have yet to hear from a school (even about an interview), can we send an interest letter/update letter?


congrats to everyone, btw. keep it pushin.

i'd say generally, sure, but october feels a bit early for letters. maybe in a couple of weeks. idk.
 
Yay, dw and dingy! Congrats! Also, congrats on your interview invite Mary!
 
Accepted at Ohio State!!

These Second Look Weekends are going to have some significant SDN presence...
 
Wow. Just woke up to a nice little acceptance e-mail from Tulane. I'm ecstatic! What a good way to start my morning and my weekend.

Congrats to everyone else with acceptances. And everyone waiting on responses, keep the faith!

Good morning all!

meee too. like you, i'm waiting on penn and columbia right now. when you gonna be at sinai?
 
I think the only interviews I'm actually "waiting" on would be Emory and Pitt. My other tops I've already been to.

My Gmail is working normally again!

Oh, yeah and NYU. I want to go to NYC.

yeah, i'm withdrawing from all but the ones i care about. so i would really like to get all 4 of my remaining ones. but if i had to pick, in order of preference it would be: columbia, tufts, penn, yale.
 
i called one school about my status adn it was an awkward call where they said i was alternate listed (a rejection at this school basically) lol...i wish schools would tell you what was wrong or maybe if u failed at the interview somehow...now im super paranoid about everything...🙁.
 
i love bill simmons. we always agree...

The Sports Guy said:
YANKEES (-7) over Angels
DODGERS (-2.5) over Phillies

My predictions: Yanks in four, Dodgers in seven, setting up the monster matchup to end all baseball matchups. Of all the juicy subplots -- West Coast versus East Coast; Joe Torre facing his old team; two steroid guys (Manny and A-Rod) looking for redemption; late-'70s flashbacks to Mr. October and Bob Welch; late-'40s and '50s flashbacks to Bronx-Brooklyn; the two biggest TV markets; and enough celeb sightings to drown Perez Hilton -- I like the contrast between stadiums the most. Old-school Dodger Stadium against new-school Yankee Stadium. Even MLB can't screw that up. This is a series made for HD.


(Of course, I probably just jinxed it and headed us toward Angels-Phillies, or as Fox calls it, "The Ratings Apocalypse of 2009." I need to stop thinking out loud.)
after i read that, i pre-ordered his basketball book. can't wait.

dang, thats tough. it's better than a silent rejection though. at least you can move on in your mind.

yah i guess, i didnt even want to go to the school honestly, its just more i thought that my interview went really well...which worries me as maybe my other interviews went horrid and theres just something about my app or something that is just going to kill me...maybe i fail at interviewing or im only average and dont stand out or something. probably freaking out over nothing i guess its just part of the process...:scared:. On monday im hearing from one of my top 3 schools...hopefully that will outweigh any concerns i have. though if im waitlisted there im freaking out lol

maybe send update/letters of interests/candy?
i already sent candy🙁...maybe i sent the wrong one? 😉
 
they are supposed to announce the winners for the world series ticket drawing today (which allows you to buy tickets to the world series at face value for non-season ticket holders) and im definitely not winning that

yeah, me neither. i'm hoping, though.
 
I think I'm going for the Phillies, because I hate the Yankees and dislike the Dodgers and Angels.

I would like the Angels more if Disney still owned them. Ever since they changed their name I boycotted them because it's stupid.
 
my former professor just sent me an email with a broken link to an abstract..i said i couldn't get to it, then he said log in to "oasis" and i was like, wtf is that? so i tell him to just paste it in the email (wouldn't that be easier in the first place), and he does. then i realize it was an abstract for the conference this weekend, and i had forgotten that "oasis" is the program they use (and i have used in the past) to search abstracts/posters. sigh 🙁 feeling dumb..
 
how was UCSF, Jimmer?

👍👍👍 UCSF is amazing. It deserves all the hype it gets. My top choice for sure.

I don't get TBS, so i've been streaming the games online and that kinda sucks but im not sure if it will replace an edited coverage of the LCS

I used it over the summer when I was out of town for a while. It's cool, but be careful I think it blacks out local games.

How'd you predict this? Bad interview or what?

No worries at this point dude.
 
How'd you predict this? Bad interview or what?

Well, I thought I would just get waitlisted, since they accept over 60% of interviewed applicants. I guess I fall into that less than 40%.

My first faculty interview didn't go very well at all, and my student interview was okay, but not bad in any way. Faculty guy kinda grilled me about random things I didn't really have good answers to. He also didn't like a lot of the answers I did have. Oh wells.

I'm honestly OK with either the Phillies or Angels, as I actively dislike the Dodgers and actively loathe the Yankees and am fairly indifferent to the others. But I agree that Dodgers-Yankees would be the most compelling World Series.

Congrats to anyone whose acceptance I missed on my quick run-through. By the way, Caesar got accepted today too 🙂
 
ha, that is pretty boss.


oh man. if you said that in public, you'd fit right in with me and my friends. most of our jokes stem from hip-hop ad-libs in their corresponding voices (rick ross, jim jones, and jeezy are the favs).

Sorry to hear that man. I've got an interview there in a few weeks so hopefully I don't have the same dude as you.

Congrats on LSU, though.
