Regarding the waiver, I think signing it just means you waive your "right" to see it. Based on that FERPA act or whatever, each applicant has a "right" to go and ask to see what their recs say, but if you waive it, the school doesn't have to comply.

So if your prof offers you to read the rec he/she wrote for you, that's definitely not violating the waiver. But, if you went to your school's career counseling center that gathers all your recs and demanded to see your recs, I think that would be.

I don't know about the May 15th/matriculation stuff...maybe it's that the rec is only confidential insofar as it has an effect on your application? And so it wouldn't matter after matriculation?

On a side note, I don't think I've ever used the word insofar before.

 

[Pedie Packs]

i dont think you guys will read your LORs come may 15th or whenever.

as in we won't give a sh**?

 

[brooklynblunder]

yea. i think you will be way too removed from this process. aren't you tired of it already. its been fun and all

[Tatastrophy]

yeah some weird alternate/accept status thing, I don't know. Haha, it's okay.

Sorry Blue. No worries though, you will be official soon enough.

Now if only I can keep mine from getting rescinded that would be splendid. I need to pull a miraculous grade on the inorganic final....and every time I actually can sit down to study I am DOG TIRED!
GIR!

 

[Jolt21]

yea. i think you will be way too removed from this process. aren't you tired of it already. its been fun and all

i'd like to increase my confidence one last bit before i dive into medical school. what a better way to do it than see how others raved about you?

plus, the process is fun as hell

 

[Pedie Packs]

yea. i think you will be way too removed from this process. aren't you tired of it already. its been fun and all

You're probably right. It waxes and wanes. Sometimes (most times) I'm completely fed up. And other times, there's the few shining moments that get you through a few days.

👍👍

 

[GoSpursGo]

my roommate told me once you matriculate, your file is open and you can go read it.

Interesting... I'd never heard that.

OMG, the freaking people weed-eating/blowing leaves outside are so damn annoying!!! They do it for like 2 hours! 😡

Be glad you didn't deal with jackhammers at 8AM as a freshman.

 

[Tatastrophy]

Yea....the construction of that shiny new Emory Med school was not very conducive to me doing well in orgo my freshman year. grrrrrr

 

[bobsmith]

Should I start T.O. on my fantasy football team tonight? He's had big games the last two weeks but he'll have Darrelle Revis on him tonight

 

[BlueElmo]

My loyola interviewer started reading various parts of them to me during my interview! yeeee

My SLU interviewer did too. I was curious though.

 

[metallica81788]

That's a tough call, Revis is a shut-down corner this season.

 

[jennynwan]

I highly doubt you're graduating UTSW in 2010, but congrats 😀

lmao sorry for the typo CLASS OF 2014!

 

[ksmi117]

so i got a warning for using the word "*ss", i thought sdn edits out all the improper words 🙁

also, 2014ers, join in on the 2015 thread, fill their first page and show them who's the boss

Stop posting there!!! We don't want them to have more posts than we do now in a year!

I'm not sure if that's cool or sad.

Very sad.

Revisiting the first page of this thread, the only posters (on that first page) that are currently active on this thread are: ksmi, D-dubs, and Yoda.

😎

Oh that's right, she interviewed down there recently, huh? How do you have such terrible taste in movies?

I've noticed she seems to have good sports knowledge though... she's killing our league along w/ ksmi

thats cuz she has lebron. tell her to give me lebron or post her phone number here so i can send her some pizzas

Where are my points? I'm winning the league without Lebron.

This. You can read them if someone lets you, but you can't demand to read them.

 

[Hoody]

ESPN is making me sick. I cant believe that people with such idiocity still exist. Everyone from Grandville should get fired. And the coach and the assistant coach should have to run 50 miles first, in a sweatsuit. with no water. and the have no access to health care while they dig their own graves. then the whole state of Louisiana should get the mushroom cloud. for real. there's a reason it was voted in the top five most stupid states this year. duuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuh. 🙄

[DrYoda]

What's up guys?

 

[JJMrK]

Yeah, I've been very excited, but as I'm going through a stress week of hell, I realized that this is nothing compared to med school, so now I'm starting to worry that med school will literally break my mind.

Regarding LORs! I was wondering about that! I really want to read my LORs, but I signed a waiver saying that I wouldn't have access. Does that hold forever!? Hmm I guess I should've looked more into that...

I think it does. I know at least one of my letter writers would get sort of annoyed if I read mine.

Should I start T.O. on my fantasy football team tonight? He's had big games the last two weeks but he'll have Darrelle Revis on him tonight

What are your other options?

 

[DrYoda]

Soon I will conduct operation serious business from now until Christmas break.

 

[bobsmith]

What are your other options?

Santonio Holmes or Robert Meachem

 

[rockaction]

Stop posting there!!! We don't want them to have more posts than we do now in a year!

I agree that in the long run we need to have more posts BUT, we completely trashed their page 1. Good job all-around everyone!

And Page 2.

 

[GoSpursGo]

Right, but you don't actually know anything about sports, you just plug all the numbers into your little formula and it spits out what to do.

😡 😡 😡 😡 😡

 

[JJMrK]

Santonio Holmes or Robert Meachem

I have both those guys. I will probably be starting TO since Fitzpatrick has been throwing to him quite a bit.

EDIT: I have TO and Holmes, not Meachem.

 

[ksmi117]

Right, but you don't actually know anything about sports, you just plug all the numbers into your little formula and it spits out what to do.

And jackson's dad is helping her. How is that fair?

And I take offense to this. I know about sports! Just not basketball. It's boring.

 

[DrYoda]

So what's everyone think of this global warming fiasco?

Most sucessful practical joke in hisotry?

Personally, I think those scientists should get the nobel prize for entertainment.

Idk, the weather has been pretty weird, but I don't think it's as drastic as they make it out to be. It is supposed to snow here tomorrow night, so I'll support the global climate change name but global *warming* is BS.

just more things for Sean Hannity and Glenn Beck to shout about

which of course is entertaining

REALLY!?!

Edit: Darn. I looked it up.... looks like the 'ice pellets' aren't projected to make it down here. :\

Correct. Global climate change has been happening for billions of years. The Ice Age, the warming after the Ice Age, etc.

Right now is just a warming phase. Yes, humans are helping it along a bit, but not to the extent Al Gore will make you believe. 🙄

But basketball is the most important sport of all!

 

[guyski79]

Santonio Holmes or Robert Meachem

In a bit of a WR pickle myself this week.

Pick 3 of the following:

Chris Chambers
Roy Williams
Hakeem Nicks
Jeremy Maclin
Steve Breaston
Derrick Mason
Pierre Garcon

I'm thinking Garcon, Mason, and Maclin.

 

[BlueElmo]

I might pick Chambers over Maclin.

 

[JJMrK]

Human induced climate change is pretty much a fact as far as I'm concerned. But my research is sort of about this, so don't get me started.

 

[Hoody]

But hoceky is the most important sport of all!

fixed your post. for accuracy. 🙂



and I'm not at all suprised people from LA think that global warming is hogwash....I mean, these are the same people who think its kosh to develop a semi-tropical coastal region that is below sea level. What was I saying again? oh yeah, top 5........ 🙄

👍

 

[guyski79]

True, I'm torn but leaning towards Maclin since DeSean Jackson is likely out and they're facing a TERRIBLE Falcons secondary.

 

[Hoody]

hahahahahhaha. I love how that golfer guy is laying "the wood" to Tiger.

"His wife shoulda used a 5 iron instead of a 3 iron."

Yeah, I know - but I didn't feel like taking the time to edit it for correctness.

 

[BlueElmo]

Okay if Jackson is out, then you might be justified in starting Maclin.

Wow your receivers stink!

 

[Pedie Packs]

oooh, yea I made a huge trade this week... what do you guys think:

Ray Rice
Fred Jackson

for

Randy Moss
Mendenhall

Jackson was a bench player for me bc I have Jones and Charles. I needed a WR bad bc I was starting housh every week. Now I don't have to!

 

[Hoody]

Yeah, I know - but I didn't feel like taking the time to edit it for correctness.

since you ride lightning, I'll forgive you. 😉

 

[guyski79]

Wow your receivers stink!

Yeah, dude I know. Roy Williams was a complete bust, and now Michael Turner is injured for my playoff run.

I'm totally effed.

[dw2158]

hoody, you are losing mad points with me for calling people dumb. this thread is not the place to judge others based on political beliefs (or climate-related beliefs 😛). and if you're kidding... it's in bad taste.
