Class of 2015!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

This forum made possible through the generous support of SDN members, donors, and sponsors. Thank you.
You packet people are lucky... I had to kiss major butt and run around for a couple months to get 5 individual letters 😡

Most schools have different requirements for packet vs. individual letters... so I'm not familiar with the packet requirements... however 2 schools I applied to (iowa & vermont) put a maximum at 4 letters... you should double check the philly schools and make sure if you send the extra letter you don't piss them off 😛.


Seriously, I wanna be a packet person!

I added three more schools to my list today. And DIDN'T add another because they require a letter from my grad school. Since I graduated 6 years ago and haven't spoken to anyone there since, that is probably not going to happen. So sad to have to weed out a school because of that lameness.
 
what are your top 3 now?

i pinched a nerve in my back. i have pain all the way down my arm from my back to the tip of my middle finger. google tells me it's probably at C7. it hurts so bad 🙁


Awwwww🙁 So sorry! Does it hurt in your back a lot? You could have subluxed a really high rib, too🙁
 
I was telling my friends on another message board that I feel like I'm at the top of the first hill of a roller coaster.
 
CONGRATS!

or should i say "get ready for a loongg year..."

I'm just going to keep telling myself that a fantastic school is going to admit me on October 15th and then I'm gonna coast through the rest of my senior year. 😎

Congrats on submitting!!!!
Roller coasters are fun🙂

I have to say, you guys are seriously motivating me. I had mapped out a plan a long time ago to submit early, pre-write secondaries, and the last two weeks with summer school and work kicking my butt a little, I started to get discouraged.

But this thread has helped me stay on track and even led me to expand my school list by 5 schools.

The next big hill won't be for a few weeks....enjoy the stomach flipping drop🙂
 
AMCAS submitted... *GULP*
good luck not that you need it with your sick mcat. 🙂

dude i know. All us cali kids not only get arguably some of the worst pre med advising (from all UC schools), but we also have to kiss ass and get individual letters since packets dont exist for us 🙁.

i'm in the same boat as you, senior year would be so much better with an acceptance hahaha im sure you're going to get plenty of them though



I hate finals, especially for classes you never studied for until 2 days before the damn test
 
i added a bunch of schools to my prelim list too im going to make my final school list after finals this week. my list right now stands at 39 schools, but im cutting it down to 30

probably 7-8 upper tier schools, 14 middleish tier and the rest on the lower end

:luck: with that! I hate finals, but I kind of like finals period. No class, studying on my own, and waking up whenever I feel like. I have a feeling I'm going to be one of those people who doesn't go to class in med school.

😱 Being from California sucks.

Vermont, UPenn, Jefferson, Cornell and Chicago.

I don't expect much from anything. I am pretending this is an experiment...a really really expensive one🙂

thanks, man. good to be back.

it's hard when you take a break from this site to ever come back, because it's like catching up on weeks of reading and i don't have that energy/time.

i'm not gonna lie, u did miss out on some juicy stuff
 
can you give me a taste?


haha that would take ages, but the best one was when some guy, How, thought it would be nice to talk about how he thinks guys should treat women and what to do for them and expect back...if i can remember correctly, he said that a man should be a servant to a woman and that is exactly what she wants blah blah who knows...i stopped listening pretty quickly

to this day, i don't think anyone understands quite what he was talking about though lol he was so lost...i kinda felt bad

maybe someone else can step in and give some other recent moments on here


edit: we have come to the conclusion that 2015 is a horny (but sexy 😉) group of people, as one way or another this thread turns into talk about sex every other night (including last night)

:laugh: maybe y'all need to get some more action
 
less amusing now.

I was going to weigh in because I should know this stuff, then I realized that I already forgot a lot of my fluid mechanics from the semester before last. lol


All of the LOR's are ready to go... just about to send 'em to amcas. applying to teach for kaplan tomorrow and trying to think up a good topic to teach about for five minutes. I may talk about "how to lead" (in dance).

it's not the audition, it's the teacher training that kills people. be prepared for an @ssload of work.
that sangria dude is being highly annoying.

:ninja:


hahaha that doesn't seem to be the problem for most of us....i think its how ridiculously good looking we are
but the real question is can you read good and do other things good?
 
Don't they pay during teacher training tho? I'm doing it for the $$$. Although I already have two jobs right now haha.


He writes too much.
minimum wage brother :laugh: kaplan pay is not fantastic, but the teaching is pretty fun if you're into that.

seriously tl;dr every time.

edit: i feel left out on the 2015 bonding because y'all are all night owls.. le sigh.. i miss the days

I think it's all in my attitude: Daddy doesn't give you what you want... he gives you what you need!

It is irresistable 😀

the correct response to my question would have been, "if you want it say ah (ah ah ah ah ah ah)"

yeah, i know, that song's gonna be stuck in your head for a while now.

Yup, same. Only 12 less schools. I sucked it up and did it, whimpering like a lost puppy the whole time.

:laugh: maybe y'all need to get some more action

Speak for yourself!

It totally is. Thanks for that. 😛
 
Just finished my last undergrad final and paper. AMCAS just verified me, and my GPA went up .03. Today is a good day.
 
applying to teach for kaplan tomorrow and trying to think up a good topic to teach about for five minutes. I may talk about "how to lead" (in dance).

me too, my audition's this weekend. no idea what i'm going to teach...2015ers, got any ideas?
 
is anyone applying to dook? their secondary gives me serious pause

I am, but that secondary will probably haunt me in my sleep. I know a lot of people who never got around to their secondary. I feel like it's a weed-out process, so I'm trying to start on that one early.

i have a copy of the amcas app printed that i'm compulsively checking over and over

i went with champagne types. just go with something you enjoy and can talk about enthusiastically.

ugh...
 
I was going over mine for the last few days. I made my hubs read my P(o)S one more time to check for spelling and grammar errors I may have missed, too.

Nut up and do it, man! This is it! 🙂
