Discover Your Odds of Getting into Medical School
This forum made possible through the generous support of SDN members, donors, and sponsors. Thank you.
Thanks everyone! Btw I submitted there 2 months ago before getting the interview offer. I wasn't sure if I'd hear back from them or not. So don't lose hope, it is still early!

So, I submitted my secondary the second day it was made available (7/1). I was pooled a month later... I waited 🙁.... I waited 😡... I waited 😕... and I watched a LOT of people who submitted after me get interviews 😱. Then today they came back around to me 🙂.


Edit: also if it matters, my primary was verified an hour after it was available on 6/2.

Sorry bro, I'm sure you will get into somewhere you love and is a much better fit for you. But I'm sorry you will miss out on all the southern girls and their cute accents.

Thanks =). Was hoping to visit family in TN with an interview at Vbilt lol... How can they reject someone who was born there?! =P

BTW, congrats on the interview! Mind if I ask what school that was?

Sorry to hear about the rejection Flow...Join the club of kids with rejections up the wazoo. Quite painful indeed.

On a completely random note, right as I thought I was done with writing medical school applications, I just received word McGill has changed up their application system, starts accepting applications tomorrow, and has revised their "personal narrative" section so I have to make an "abstract" of it AND write up a CV with "highlights". they're going to use the CV highlights and narrative abstract to screen for an interview invitation and post-interview, they'll review both documents in full + interview notes. They better accept me after all this work!

I dunno if it's BS, I just think they're taking the "holistic admissions approach" super serious and I was advised by the "GPA and MCAT first" school of thought.

Everyone told me the same thing. The few people who looked at my list said I was totally nuts. I don't know if this year is different or what. But maybe there is a shift happening.

Oh no! I know how passionate all the Vandy applicants seem to be... I didn't even bother applying there. FWIW, I think your stats on MDapps are more eye-catching than Snooki's sunglasses 🙂

hmm...I can't decide if that's good or bad for me. So much uncertainty all around :scared:

on an unrelated note: made a bad choice going out this weekend after being sick, now paying the price with being sick again. you'd think by now I would have known better.

Thanks, much like snooki's sunglasses, they don't seem to be doing much and might even imply "I'm a socially inept douchebag" :laugh:
 
hola amigos i have had the worst hiccups of my life on and off today...like to the point of making me feel like i'm going to throw up
 
i awkwardly hiccuped into doctors ears on the phone at work today. then i was yawning and stretching and hiccups so loud i thought it was a sonic boom.

I'm really sorry : ( To try look at the bright side: I would have made you stop by and see me, and you probably would have had a really lame time until you could figure out how to politely excuse yourself
 
okay listen, on the other side of medical school, when we're there...can i just say i'm getting a little depressed about something?

so for the last 3 yrs i havent had really many meaningful relationships and have always told myself i dont have time to date anyone significant. now i'm looking at four more years without dating significantly (read date--->marriage material) and WTF i am feeling really 19th century i need a husband-y!


say something, anything.

You'll date for sure in med school. I imagine that med students need to vent their sexual frustration so it doesn't build on top of the normal-type frustration they get from their classes. Plus you seem pretty awesome and some awesome guy will be forced to see that while spending 8 hours a day in class with you 🙂
 
mehhh idk i'm so over meaningless "dating" to vent physical /sexual frustration. idk man i'm so at that point where i'm like "okay let's meet him. you know, man of my dreams guy i see myself waking up next to in 40 yrs. i'm ready for him"

also thanks you are also awesome.


also sorry boys for being so incredibly stereotypically womany right now.

Match.com? eHarmony? J Date? Haha I don't know Curb, I think you'll meet your man in the next 4 years. Keep in mind that the med school application process screens out most of the idiots in the world so everyone that's left is pretty quality. 🙂

Although I do hear that dating within your med school is sort of a no-no...
 
dont apologize curbye; i think a lot of people feel the same way that you do. The next 4 years will be spent in the company of people who are at least un-douchey enough to get past the interview stage and who have common interests with you. Yeah there is a lot of studying but med students still go out on weekends, nbd.

Also, I take all those comments about not dating within your med school class with a grain of salt. I've heard way too many stories about match days where couples are desperately hoping to match into the same program or programs in the same city and they end up getting what the want and it is a happy story that gets put on the front page of the school's website and whatnot.
 
nah i'm picking up what you two are throwin down, though.


and psh i've been in worse awkward situations than being in the same school with the person for four years. i started to type a story but thought twice about it
 
I wish non Jews could use J-date....


Also, I totally feel you curbs🙁 So sad how when every other part of my life is going ok, the horribleness that is that is so glaringly obvious.

Duckie! I have missed you! And I think a wholistic reading of your app is a good thing.

Auntie Curbs, please tell me a story!
 
non jews can join...they ask you what you practice (reform, orthodox, conservative) and you can answer 'willing to convert', not sure if willing to convert, not willing to convert

2nd week of freshman year. walked into chem class (small honors class). saw a kid's sweatshirt (really original) lying next to his chem book. made eye contact with him. he starts laughing. i realize, oh, that's why that sweatshirt looked so familiar on that guys roomate's bed last night.

kid's like 'so i hear you were in my room this weekend'
me: turning beet red "welcome to college"
my thoughts: walk of shame into a CLASSROOM i hate myself.

yeah i survived.

Boys are so un-classy.


If med school guys still have this level of class, NONE of them will have the honor of my.....ahem...company.
 
i just want to find myself a nice doctor who finds me hilarious and worships the ground i walk on. is that so much to ask for?


edit: >6/10 pls also
 
Speaking of men, where are all the guys that are normally lurking here? Did they all go into hiding when they saw where the conversation was heading?
 
CougarMD said:
For sure. It takes awhile to prepare the tools😉


I just want a guy who is hilarious, who likes my cooking, will do all of the dishes, and is not threatened by me.

Men are poopy.

Hey, you know I would do your dishes, probably like your cooking, and would just make you laugh all day long if we were together! That being said, I'd also be significantly shorter and not provide you with the pleasure most seek out of a relationship! lol.

I think we should be together, actually. You're just my type. 😀
