This is the final stretch guys! The past few days have flown by for me since I've been scheduling pretty much all of my free time with friends or just spending it with family so I haven't had much time to think about Dec 1st thankfully. Now I have to find something to keep myself preoccupied for the next four days. Sucks being out of school sometimes haha.

Hey all, i lost a close family member this week to a fatal illness. I know we're all really caught up in admissions decisions, but remember to always appreciate your loved ones and focus some energy on them too. Dec 1st for me is going to be a heavily downplayed event, but I hope that the rest of you can party and celebrate with your family and friends 🙂

Just wondering if anyone sent thank you letters to their interviewers and if it makes a difference. I just thought it was the "proper" thing to do

I did the week after my interview. I think it leaves a good impression about you. But it won't change thier mind about the acceptance. So it's not a big deal really. Don't overthink it, you will get in somewhere. Good luck to you all.

note to self: don't drink coffee, it only heightens the anxiety 😵
 
I had this awful dream that I woke up at 7AM December 1st and kept checking my email every 5 minutes..thankfully I woke up before 10AM in the dream haha. Hope everyone is hanging in there!
 
I'm super excited for Dec 1st, I might not sleep the whole night just thinking of acceptance. Good luck everyone, hope you hear good news....
 
Do you guys think most schools will update their AADSAS portal at midnight on the 1st? I feel like more will because of the new system

I think that those schools who kept on top of the portal this year will update it to reflect their decision but I don't know if it will necessarily be at midnight. When I was invited for an interview they always notified me and then updated the portal, but who knows.

I'll be working... theoretically I will have already heard from IU (they hit send at midnight) and I'll be waiting to hear from Roseman, that could be Friday or Monday. I need the hours, and staying busy will keep my mind occupied.

I'm debating whether I should make a doctors appointment to call in sick. Idk. I guess for me it depends on how long I stay up Thursday night.

I Foreal thought about switching my shift so that I could be on my own that morning and not working. I can answer when I’m working but It would be nice not to be at work

I'm lucky because Friday's are admin days with minimal patients (wire pokes, ect I work.in orthodontics) I'll be doing all the lab work so I'll be able to answer my phone whenever.

I wasn't planning on it but then my friend invited me to go to Vegas so.... ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ won't have to go far to either celebrate or drown my sorrows!
 
I wonder if any schools will update AADSAS at midnight. Also, I heard we should have heard by 11am on 12/1? I will be working that day but if I hear my phone going off, I am answering it!

I think it depends on the timezone of you and the school. Also with the new portal and electronic system, I'd be willing to bet that everything will be behind a few hours compared to previous years

I've got my good stuff in the freezer ready to go. Otherwise I have plenty of other options.
