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

This forum made possible through the generous support of SDN members, donors, and sponsors. Thank you.
On Sunday Night? Weird!

Yah I know. I'm starting to wish everyone just did mass e-mails for acceptances, that way they all come at almost the same time. The anxiety/unknown waiting for the phone call is not worth it, especially when you check SDN constantly! (Although I'm sure I will change my mind when/if I get a phone call acceptance.)

I was accepted in text speak with smileys. I think that was boss (yes, I just used that word!). I'm saving that text message forever.

You will love that phone call when it comes 🙂

Text! lol, thats sooo cool.
 
Hey all hope everyone had a good weekend. Grats to all those with acceptances. Hopefully Monday will be my turn 😛
 
Be warned, really long post!

Grats, Tiger!! Told ya you'd get in if you came in with as much cuteness as that kitten.

+1! Congrats!

Biiiiiiiiig congrats to all of you with acceptances!

My interview went okay, I don't want to jinx it. Plus I'm the kind of person that keeps thinking over everything I said and doubting the quality of my answers 👎 I was really impressed by the school though, they are really on top of their stuff and super friendly.

I'm happy because my football team played awesomely for once 😀

Yeah, I do the same when it comes to things like this. I just tell people "I just have to wait and see" and that usually does the trick. I always agonize over things like that as well. 🙁

Well, I covered the other three the night I got my first acceptance, so I'm definitely interested in the cupcakes. Considering going over to costco and ordering some or buying some mix so that I can have a few for my birthday this week.

Sordid. Sounds like a crazy night.

IRL or on the internet, I can't stand people who are a douche, then act like everyone is f'ed up when they respond to their inappropriate behavior.

+1, pisses me off.

you won't

:laugh:

Really? because I volunteer at this place with a bunch of little girls (im talking like 5 y/o too) and every time they piss me off, I just slap in the face but they still keep doing what their doing. Reminds me of you bro.

But whatever man, this is just ridiculous, its not even worth my time anymore.

Sorry, not even remotely funny. Fail.

I'm actually offended too. I wanted some points.

+10 for making a mean brownie (and because you're awesome of course).

I don't care about how you feel bro. I'm enjoying watching you get mounted by bleargh.


You're already in the hall of fame Cougs. You don't need anymore points.

Agreed. You can still keep the points though.

:laugh: ok let's play the victim card now.

dating your hand is not what anyone else calls a "life"

:laugh: x 2

I'm watching The Blind Side.

And sobbing.


I swear I cry through this entire movie.

My siblings saw it and said that it was an awesome movie. They described one scene (in the beginning, I think) to me about a guy who was planted to throw the ball, but then get tackled from his blind side (I guess). The dude's leg ends up bent at a nasty angle. Career-ending injury. That is the only scene I know from the movie. Thanks sibs! 🙄 (I do plan on watching the movie, along with like 7 other movies, when I get some free time)

i'd rather frame and mount the nice accceptance letter to medical school i received the other day, but that works too.

Congrats!

Poor playa gets slapped around like a rag doll in here.

Or, apparently, one of his 5 year old girls.

= LOL.

arghhh....The dean of Vandy decided to start calling acceptances tonight. From my calculations, he's been calling for at least 2 hours now. Ahhhh...Anxiety emanating from my cell phone on a Sunday Night.

Good luck! :luck:

Hey all hope everyone had a good weekend. Grats to all those with acceptances. Hopefully Monday will be my turn 😛

It will! :xf:
 
I just want this all to be over.


So I can sleep for the next 8 months.

haha, me too. I'm going to be done with undergrad in early December, and then I'm just going to chill until med school... mostly. I can't wait.
 
I cringe everytime I watch that video. His leg gets bent in the most awkward position.

Then you don't want to watch the Eduardo or Aaron Ramsey injuries... two very brutal soccer injuries the past two years suffered by Arsenal players. Similar, broken lower leg.. but this time because someone drop kicked them in the shins.

But yeah, trivia fact about that game with the Theisman injury: Monday night game, and in the 80s Giants-Redskins were a pretty big rivalry. Even though the Giants defense was pretty brutal in that era, and were winning the game at that time, they eventually lost because the defense seemed so shaken up by the injury and didn't seem willing to tackle people properly and shied away from contact. And you knew it was a bad injury too, since LT is immediately waving at the Redskins' bench for the medical staff.
 
Random thought: I wonder what jobs are available to people with bioinformatics degrees and how well they pay. hmmm.....

I'm doing a hw assignment in bioinformatics, so it isn't quite as random of a thought as it may seem.

heading to youtube to find these videos...
 
another interview today. And I'm still stressed, even though I already know I'm going to medical school. haha.
 
Go get 'em, Tiger! 😀

Ducky! That buttercream recipe you gave me, do you use the cupcake recipes on that site too? I want to make all the stuff from scratch for Chicklet's party.

Good luck!!! Just tell them you're awesome again. Shoe-in 😉

Man oh man, I took the day off of SDN yesterday and came back to this EPIC Bleargh vs. Playa feud. Phenomenal.

P.S. anyone else an "Amazing Race" fan? I WILL be on it someday. :xf:

I've never used any of those recipes. What kind of cupcakes? My favorite cookbook is by Dorie Greenspan and she has awesome recipes. Or Martha Stewart obviously. I think I've looked at a few Magnolia cupcake recipes and they look pretty basic and solid. If it's something in particular I can tell you what I've used 🙂 Hmmm maybe I should scrap med school and open a bakery hahaha.

Edit: Hmm maybe shouldn't say that. Just got another rejection letter.
 
Good luck on the interview, Tiger!

And good luck to everyone else that's eagerly awaiting to hear from schools 🙂 I'm so excited for everyone on here!

Edit: oh no Ducky! I'm sorry to hear about the big R 🙁

Ditto🙁 So sorry!
 
It's been great to see all the acceptances coming through! Congrats to everyone, and good luck to those who have yet to hear.

Bleargh's smackdown of playa = too funny. Who thinks it's cool/funny/intimidating to hit kids? WTF, mate, seriously.

Happy birthday Flow! 21 is a good one. =)

Sorry to hear about the R, ducky, that's rough.

Ugh... apparently the admissions office is emailing people one by one for acceptances for SUNY Upstate. People are already starting to get notified. Nervous time 🙁

Yeah it was the Magnolia cupcake recipes. For her birthday I'd probably make a dozen vanilla and a dozen chocolate.

Sorry about the rejection, honey!

I am now 21 😀

Woot woot! Happy birthday!
 
Finally, I got an acceptance email this morning! Class of 2015, here I come! (In ecstasy ...)
 
High Priority waitlist for Jefferson. Not the worst news in the world but I'm really sad. I knew I blew that interview.
 
doesnt that waitlist move quite a bit? its soo early! you'll be fine!

Really sorry to hear about the waitlist geek. I know you were really excited about Jefferson. High priority sounds good though 😛, and I'll bet you'll still get in.

In other news, the suspense is killing me! I want to know already!!! 🙁
 
congrats to those that are in! yay! Good luck to those still waiting to hear the good news... I know you will soon!

Sorry to hear the news GC, but I have a feeling you will still get in.
 
Geeks, I think high-priority at this point in time bodes very well for you! You can always send the picture of Chicklet in her Halloween costume in your update letter and say "Dear Jeff, If you don't let me in, this adorable little girl will cry for days. Think about it."

Ha! Daisy, I love you.

Between this and some other very disappointing developments, I'm sitting here on the couch sniffling. Chicklet tells me, "Mommy sad." Yup. 🙁

Wow I haven't been here for a while. Sorry about the waitlist, Geekchick. I've been screwing up interviews left and right and the feeling of emptiness upon leaving the interview room just plain sucks. But I agree that high priority waitlist at this point bodes very well for you. Do you have other interviews coming up??

Congrats on all the acceptances everyone!

sorry to hear that, geekmama. If anyone's a perfect fit at Jeff, it's you. I know it was meant to be for u to get in, which is exactly what's going to happen.

People that got into Jeff also got into a bunch of other schools, so there's going to be a lot of movement. In a while, you can send a letter of intent, but stay positive in the meantime!!!
 
Sorry to hear about the WL, geekmama! The high priority bit sounds good though, I imagine you'll get in with that.

Congrats, schlieren!

What's everyone up to this Monday afternoon? I'm getting out of work right now and get to go home and continue obsessing over when I'm going to hear about acceptance/WL/rejection... I was rehashing my interview from a couple weeks ago and wondering if I'd blown it in a way I hadn't considered before. =/

probably a yield-protection move, i'm sure as soon as you send in a letter of intent (if by some reason you don't get into your other schools) they'll let you in
 
The best thing you can do is learn from any mistakes, and improve on your future interviews. That's what I tried to do, and so far it's been working out pretty well. 🙂 Also I don't know your exact situation but perceptions can change a lot on the interview day. Before interviewing I thought I'd much rather go to Jefferson than Temple, but afterward I changed my mind (though I'll probably get waitlisted by Temple as well, seeing how I wasn't accepted on Friday).
 
happy birthday flow
sorry to hear the waitlist GC, i was in the same position on friday, give it until later in the day and you'll feel better i pwah-miss :xf:
 
Got accepted into BCM today! Woooo class of 2015!!
Congrats to everyone accepted and good luck to everyone waiting for an acceptance. 🙂

Grats monkey in the middle!

Ugh, expecting to get a positive email today and the first thing I get is another rejection. Not a good feeling.
