Thank you, @No Limits! It looks like I'm going to go all over the US. :O Hope to get you those double-stuffed oreos if I bump into you on our travels.
How did I miss this?? I never miss anything with cookies mentioned... My apologies, I must be sleep deprived lol.
I really hope we bump into each other too so I can get those Oreos... I mean, meeting you would be cool too though lol 😛

Haha jk... kind of... I seriously think I'm addicted to cookies but everyone thinks it's a joke.

No I feel you, I am too. But! I'm on a diet! And I'm sticking to it! NO COOKIES FOR SUNFLOWER
 
What kind of evil monster would banish cookies from their life!?!?

.... did you just call me an evil monster? 😢

I'm proud of you, I know that's not easy. I think the only way I could give up cookies is if I check into rehab.

Hahahaha that's a funny gif oh man. Thanks! It's tough but def gonna be worth it!
 
That depends, what's your official stance on cookie eating (Think carefully before you answer this question! 😀)

Official stance: I love cookies SO much and wish I could eat them all the time, but I also value healthiness, and think that it's time I cut back on cookies for a bit in order to become a healthier and happier person overall 🙂

NO. NO. LET COOKIES BRING YOU HEALTH AND HAPPINESS.

I've actually been off the cookie wagon for the past few weeks or so. Weill Cornell is six blocks from Laduree, so I know I'm going to stuff myself with caramel macarons and raspberry-fudge Saint Honores both before and after my interview. Y'all are welcome to join me and make calorically-responsible decisions.

@No Limits is a cookie gif champion. But srsly I'm going to have to bring a bag of Oreos to all my interviews in the off-chance that we run into each other. Right before the fin aid talk I'll surreptitiously slip you a package... well, either that or I'll just pull a whole load of cookies out of my briefcase during the lunch and go "Whelp, I packed my own lunch today" and gorge myself on cookies.

I have four packs of reeses flavored oreos in my dorm room atm. I highly recommend them.

While I don't condone the lack of cookie eating in your life, I can respect your decision.

As an unlicensed and uneducated medical school applicant, I strongly encourage an exercise regiment of 3x per week, not for the sake of healthiness (which is a nice side effect 😛), but for a caloric deficit which can be filled with COOKIES!

I've only had them a few times whenever I'm in L.A., but the cheap part definitely works for me.
 
Idk where all these cookies came from, but if y'all interview at UCLA, be sure to get Diddy Riese cookies.

I used to get bags of day-old Diddy cookies on a weekly basis to extend my food budget... not the healthiest choice. After a while the guys working there started to recognize me and would give me the crusty brownie ends for free. :dead:

While Diddy is very economical, the best LA ice cream sandwiches I've had are from Coolhaus in Culver City/Pasadena (they're $5 a pop, though).

That's awesome, sounds like a perfect diet for future doctors 😛

Never heard of Coolhaus but I'll have to check them out next time I'm in Pasadena.

I haven't heard of Coolhaus either, but I'll be sure to stop by the next time I'm in LA.

Speaking of cookies in LA... here are some aesthetically pleasing macarons from Bottega 😀

Yes, oh sweet jeebus I love that place. Here are some photos of my most recent Bottega Louie splurges:

Raspberry-cream Saint Honore. They even put a dewdrop on the rose petal topping.

Chocolate-hazelnut brownie tartlet (c'mon, look at my username) and some of the fanciest cocktails I have ever seen.

Hokay.... I should probably stop talking about desserts now.

Oh my lord. Why didn't I know you while at college... we would have been best friends on food adventures!!
 
You guys are making me so sad and so hungry aahhhh

There is a plate of cookies in front of me right now. Can I resist? Just one might not hurt.....

Here's to hoping we end up at the same med school and in an area with really really good food. :xf:

I only started to appreciate LA's food scene these past two years and have been kicking myself for not going out to more places sooner. As sad as it sounds, I am extremely excited for interviews partly because I'll get to try out new restaurants...

One won't hurt! It'll be a test of restraint.

And what are you doing with cookies right in front of you? That's torture!

These are quality cookies. Let me tell you. I may or may not consistently buy the cookie cake and eat it by myself...😳

That's it. I'm ordering the cookie cake while I panic in my hotel room the night before my interview. :nailbiting:

OMG. What is this?! It's done, I'm going to USC
Holy cow drooling
 
I resisted the cookies. I am proud of myself. If I didn't give into temptation after seeing all those delicious desserts you guys posted, then I can do anything 😀
 
Been waiting 40 minutes for the doctor to show up... :l
 
Oh my god you guys... I need all these cookies, now! I prefer IIs of course, but cookies will do for today! Yum!!
 
This is my favorite thread on SDN because of all the positivity and support. Hey guys, long time lurker but finally joined around the start of application season. I felt out of place posting here without an II but I got my first one last week so I thought I'd chime in! Wishing everyone a successful cycle with desirable results!! 🙂

:hello:Welcome and congrats on your first interview!
 
Last time I went to the doctor we chatted about med school admissions and it made me feel better.
Haha I'll be visiting the doctor soon and I plan to ask him about his experiences applying. I'm sure someone who's not in the thick of IIs and rejections will have some great perspective on the whole process.

That's awesome news, and welcome! I've really enjoyed reading through this thread as well -- everyone is so supportive and fun. It's a great way to get through the process together!
 
:hello:Welcome and congrats on your first interview!
Thank you! I'm seriously impressed by everyone here and their greatness, including yourself! Very impressive I must say. Low MCAT but really high GPA here with great ECs so it's easy to be paranoid about schools in my spot haha seeing the importance of the MCAT. Hoping for the best though!

I agree! It really helps ease my nerves seeing the successes of others while maintaining a great support system. Kindness and support really do go a long way, especially in times like this.

I'm in the same boat! But, I just received an II to one of my favorite schools (hmm right after mentioning that I'd be ok with cookies for today... well you know, I'm good with having both right now! 😀), and am feeling so, so much better about things. Still going to be a long process, but I was also freaking out about my stats and things going so slowly.

Yes for sure! I love hearing about everyone's successes, and it's great to have so much kindness and excitement backing you up when you finally get some good news!! Congrats again, and good luck!! 🙂

Congrats! Great news bud! Exactly, getting that II last week really calmed me down as well. Glad to know it's better now! Thank you and same to you!

Ha thanks 🙂 Number's aren't really everything and it's still pretty early in the cycle. Wishing you nothing but success this cycle. I predict you'll be pulling more interviews in no time! Good luck! Congrats again on your first II!

Also congrats @spockprime !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
