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

This forum made possible through the generous support of SDN members, donors, and sponsors. Thank you.
Is this an "in honor of geek's high priority waitlist" staredown perhaps?
yes. Jeff, you are ON NOTICE
I'm officially ready for people to withdraw from schools since they have received acceptances so more interview invites are sent out. Please and thank you.
i definitely plan to be a good & conscientious neighbor re: acceptances/invites
Go Lakers!!

Congrats to all!

😍 Thanks, guys.

And congrats, again, Cougs! <3
we got your back
lake show alllll day!!! and kobe's the lifeguard of that lake.
ain't no lakes in LA!
I'm so jealous of everyone with acceptances in hand! I'm supposed to find out next week from the school I interviewed at, but the more I think about the interview, the more I feel like I bombed it. 🙁

I need some good news or another interview at least. It's hard to remember that in the real world, interviews go on until the spring... because of SDN, I feel like I'm running out of time to get invites haha
my good friend who is in med school right now had ONE interview way late in the process, got off the waitlist, and is a happy med student. long process. lose not the hope, yoda says. fear leads to anger.. anger to hate.. and so on. yes.
one thing you learn through this process is that THE WHOLE THING IS VERY, VERY, VERY STRANGE
we're not in kansas anymore
Oh please, my sGPA is garbage (make that my cGPA lol)... you'll do just fine
+1
Thank the gods, my head didn't explode.

Acceptance letter! Surprised-ish because that was for sure for sure my worst faculty interview.

Celebrating by putting on comfy pants, drinking a fancy beer, and making cream cheese frosting for my pumpkin-chocolate-chip cupcakes (clearly I am attempting to bring the discussion back to baked goods...).
Thanks Doc!


Congrats Trogdor!!!! I love the comfy pants part🙂 that should be a part of any celebration🙂
Is this a girl thing? all my pants are comfortable
No rejections but I'm right there with you guys. Can't wait to be "officially" class of 2015.

So hey. I started a diet nearly two weeks ago and I lost like 4 pounds in the first week. Not so much this week, as my body goes, "RAWR! What happened to my foooooood!?!?!" 😡

But hey... 👍
pfft. you'll get here.

Wow, sounds like an intense diet! I'm a terrible dieter, I have zero willpower when it comes to delicious foods.

I am sooo going to make those! Ok...I have a sad admission...does anyone else ever randomly read over their AMCAS to try to see what the adcoms are seeing??

Also, I was just asked if I had any ethnical diversity in my history..because my top choice likes that...🙁 That is literally something I have zero control over.

Yeah, I do too. I like this website, though. I can input all my food and it tells me how many calories I'm allowed/left in the day. It helps a LOT. Food is worth a lot more calories than you think (I'm looking at YOU, caesar salad dressing...). Once I get more used to the new calorie restrictions and all I'll start exercising more regularly. It told me I can reach my goal weight (which is *cough*-ty five pounds less than I was when I started) by my next birthday. I like that goal. 👍
 
Second acceptance! To an MD school! Wo0t! I'm still in shock that I am really gonna be a doctor. :scared:😀😱

Yeah, I had the "Lose It!" app on my iPod touch and it does all that, plus calculates how many cals you'll burn doing a bunch of different exercises. Even though I could literally take it anywhere with me, I never stuck to it for more than a day.

Congrats to Avoidthetiger!!!
 
Hmm, perhaps...Though I thought that for guys, comfy pants = no pants.
well, yes, the birthday pants are always the most comfortable pair... but that doesn't mean the other pairs are uncomfortable
 
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH!!!!!!!!!!

Accepted!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Finally I get to use these emoticons:::soexcited::clap::banana::banana::banana:

And congrats to everyone else!!!!!!!!!!! Sorry I've been neglecting the thread...I had a midterm last night 🙁

Tiger---I think we were accepted to the same school 😀😀😀, and had the same interview date!! Too bad I didn't realize it then, I could have met you...
 
Congrats, everyone, on the acceptances!

I have a letter of unknown purport in the mail... and so the waiting begins.

thank you everyone for the congratulations! Robochicken -- I'm very excited to here we interviewed at the same school on the same day. 🙂 congrats on your acceptance! and Sorry we didn't get to meet. I tend to keep my mouth shut on my love of the SDN forum when I meet people since most pre-meds make fun of SDN-users (or atleast they have been at the interviews I have attended.)

I'm the same way. 🙂
 
Congrats you guys. Have a killer weekend!
 
Rejected from UCSD while at my Penn interview today 🙁. Only one more chance for WC love...

I got the dreaded pre-interview hold... which apparently means we will look at you after we hand out all of our interviews. Looks like if I get in some where I'll be moving 👎.

Also, I got rejected from Pitt this week.

Sorry to hear about the rejections, guys! I expect mine to be coming from UCSD in about a week since I added them a little later than my other schools.
 
AFTER TWO LONG YEARS OF APPLYING FULL OF TEARS AND DOUBTS AND STRUGGLE!!

I AM GOING TO BE A DOCTOR!!!!!!

😍Wake Forest SOM 2015😍
 
Whatup '15. You guys were quite quiet today.

Congrats to all the new '15ers, especially you, Robo <3 🙂

Also, welcome to the thread for the new people!

Silly schools. Although having to move sucks, you probs didn't want to be freezing your butt off at Pitt anyway.

Congrats for all those acceptances, guys!

Thanks Cougs!!! 😍

I am so excited, and relieved. I want to go on the WAMC thread and post a " You guys told me not to apply this cycle, but i did, and i got in" thread. haha. But seriously...that thread made me seriously depressed last spring.....for no reason. 🙄
 
Top Gun sequel is in the works 👍
 
So I got a cheesesteak at Abner's. It was OK. Their waffle fries were super good tho. Grabbed a Heineken to go with it. Man being 21 is expensive, as is philly. Went to scoop deville and spent $7 on a freakin ice cream... which was super delicious! Overall I could see myself enjoying Philly but also going into massive debt in order to support the penn med out of school lifestyle lol. I really wanted to go to a club tonight but I have to be up by 5 AM tomorrow so that I can make sure I get to my flight, so that didn't end up happening, although I did walk around a good bit just to check everything out. Really a neat place, Center City.

Abner's? I'm sorry, man. You should have asked, I could have taken you for a real cheesesteak. Philly is great, but there are a lot of cheaper, fun places to go out too. Not that Penn kids necessarily go to them...

Scoop de Ville is great though! Just a rare treat.

Yeah man, I didn't feel like walking down to Pat's, and Abner's is what one med student recommended, although everyone I asked was like "I don't eat cheesesteaks." lol

Scoops was awesome. Although it was super sugary and now my stomach is a little upset hahaha.
 
Yeah, Pat's (or Geno's) is more than a hop, skip, and a jump from campus. It's easily 2mi away on the other side of the river.

I ended up getting ice cream over in Manayunk tonight because I've been craving it for months, pure awesomeness. =) Feel better, Flow!

Cougs, that sounds like my kinda bar!
 
Both of these things are pure awesomeness.


Also, the school I am at now is pure awesomeness. I just hung out with a bunch of first years and I want to be BFFs with them all. I got offered a cookie by a stranger. In a bar.

Awesome.
He offered you a "cookie" huh...😉
 
Officially class of 2015!!!

UCSD!
 
Got my first acceptance today, I'm getting off work in 3 hrs and I'm gonna start drinking and I DON'T care that it will be 8am!!!!!!!👍
 
Wow, so many new acceptances! Congratulations, you guys! RoboChicken and Avoidthetiger, I saw you guys in the same school thread that I was accepted to. Just sent my deposit in yesterday, 95% sure this is the school for me. We might be classmates!
 
So, who in the class of 2015 already knows what specialty they want to go into, and, if so, which specialty?
 
Hm, so two nights of good sleep cannot make up for a week's worth of bad sleep. This whole interview process is turning me into a zombie! Haha.

On top of that, UTMB may be playing a cruel joke on me by showing up in my TX match rank list even though I never interviewed there. It makes me worried that either the interview invite got lost in the internet and I missed the boat, or that it was a silly computer error and they didn't ever mean to show me any love. Oh well, the admissions office told me they'd check on it and send me an email. Can't wait for the weekend to be over! Hopefully they just checked the wrong box on my application and meant to send me an invite this week, but instead marked me as complete?

Also, do you think that this shirt is awesome or tragic? I'm considering ordering it.
 
The shirt is totally awesome. A few months back I sent it to my research adviser so she could get matching ones with her kid.

Pure awesome.
 
Hey CLIFF!

😛 :soexcited: 😛
i appreciate the love, but what is the inspiration.

yum. congrats!
Well then I'll spice things up by saying... I'VE BEEN ACCEPTED TO TEMPLE!
congrats!
Ahh! Congratulations! Welcome (officially) to the class of 2015!



Daisy, there must be widespread stupidity going on amongst the schools that are rejecting you. F**k 'em, they don't know what they're missing.
whimsy is so gangster. i love it.

But hey...
don't lose more than 2 pounds a week or you wont be able to maintain the weight loss. read about set point theory and that'll help you understand a little more why. feel free to PM with any specific questions.
Got my first acceptance today, I'm getting off work in 3 hrs and I'm gonna start drinking and I DON'T care that it will be 8am!!!!!!!
haha nice!

Congrats to everyone else!

Just got home from a good experience in Florida. Met some great people, learned some things about what I might like in a curriculum. Had a nice rejection sitting on my desk for me when I got home :laugh:. Stat ***** schools 🙄.
 
So many acceptances, my head is about to :boom: (in a good and congratulatory way, of course)!

Hey StarryNights!!!
Yay!😀 I am so excited about MCW too!!! I will def be sending my deposit. It'd be really cool if we were classmates...

Btdubs--- were you on the mcat boards sometime around January (I think I remember seeing your SN a lot) lol
 
I woke up at 4am EST to catch a plane. I got to my "home" airport at 11:30 PST. I actually got home for the first time to drop my stuff at 2p PST. And now, at 8:35 PST, I am finally home home and in bed.

I am so glad I was smart enough to put clean sheets on my bed and lay comfy PJs out. It has been a long day🙂


How are you all doing?
 
i appreciate the love, but what is the inspiration.

Hey geekmama!!! :xf::clap::bow::biglove:

I was rubbing it in your face that the Phils won the other night. Of course we just lost. 😛 again anyway.


don't lose more than 2 pounds a week or you wont be able to maintain the weight loss. read about set point theory and that'll help you understand a little more why. feel free to PM with any specific questions.

I don't plan to. I only lost about 2 pounds this week and that's what I expect. I think the first week was just my body going OMFG WTF is going on!
