Does anyone know if most schools call PST or EST?

...B-b-but last year's thread started October 18th 🙁

 

[Carlsaganlvr10]

I lurked on last year's thread trying to imagine what it would be like when I actually applied. Now, I'll know what it's like!!!

Dude me too! I lurked though last year's threads and got excited for when it would be our turn. Stoked that it's finally happening. Thanks for making our thread OP. 😀

Bruh.

 

[TeethAreMyThing]

Good luck, everyone! If you don't get any acceptances on the 1st (like me) do not freak out. Interviews and acceptances keep coming!

 

[LVKE]

i remember these days. now it's countdown to graduation

 

[Kouneko]

I only have one interview so far so it's not looking too great for me statistically, but still can't help but feel a little excited. 🙄

How's DS?

They tend to call relative to the time zone the school is in, the only exception to this that I recall was UCSF (called pretty late at night).

Also heard from a current dental student that (at least for my state school) they do not send an automated e-mail at midnight or anything. So, don't freak out if you don't get anything at 12 on the dot. Best of luck, everybody!

Yes. Interviewed I think in November. May have been late October.

What's everyone doing to keep busy?

For me it’s work and part time school. This is my third cycle and if I don’t get in this time I’m applying for a Diagnostic sonography technician. It’s a 2 year course. I need to start some program in school so I can move on with my life.

dang sorry that happened 🙁 Thanks for sharing though.

I also work on the 1st! My supervisor is super chill though so we can use our phones and go on non work related websites during work. Probably still going to call in "sick" lol

Sidenote- We can now say we have 4 weeks and X amount of days!

Same! I think I’m going to go to the “doctor” that day [emoji57]. Our initial fate is a month away. Hoping we all eat our first pick!

@PredentalPrincess remember when you posted "welcome to August" in the interview thread..that was 3 months ago lol seems like it was yesterday.

 

[Carlsaganlvr10]

I can't miss work that day, but good thing it's a Friday.

 

[PredentalPrincess]

Yes! a week after that I got the bulk of my interview offers and I remember being so excited. Look at us now...waiting for our lives to be decided lol. No big deal! This cycle felt really long in the beginning.

dec 1 the day of happiness or sadness

 

[Michael_Scott]

I remember where I was when I got the call. It was early morning (atleast for me), so go figure.
Good luck to you all.

Our last year countdown thread was too lit! Let’s see if Class of 2022 has what it takes.

Thinking of giving my students some group worksheets so they won't notice if I suddenly need to slip out to take a phone call

 

[mariobrosdoctor]

31 Days Left until December 1st!

 

[Anna Marie]

Do most schools tend to fill up their classes on December 1st? I had a friend who got in a couple cycles back that received his call on December 4th, so I'm trying to figure out when the REAL panic needs to start...

I think it varies by school.... but I'd wait until like the 15th before I get too anxious. Although that's easier said than done because I'm already on pins and needles!

Literally everyone asks if I have heard anything yet and I have to explain over and over about December 1st.

 

[Carlsaganlvr10]

Exactly! I'm considering making a shirt that says Dec. 1st, so I don't have to repeat myself so many times.

 

[PredentalPrincess]

Maybe I'll make business cards, no words just hand them the card and walk away.

I don’t think I’m very excited about December 1st since I only had one interview. I’m mainly wondering what happened to the other schools that I never heard from. At least a rejection is an answer. I hate being in limbo.
