Started by LVKE
Y'all, please do not forget to take good care of yourselves in the next few days! Take a walk somewhere away from screens periodically, try get some exercise, remember to eat 3 meals a day, and most importantly try to get some sleep! I recently found a podcast called "Sleep with Me" that's basically just a guy telling really long/rambling/boring stories he makes up....sounds dumb but it has honestly really been helping me drift to sleep when I'm feeling nervous.
I dont even know what sleep is anymore.
"Thanks for the money.."
Well depends... Xanax can be taken for very real reasons. But yes, don't take it for fun.
having 3 exams this week really is making time FLY haha. Best wishes to everyone! I personally am really nervous about this and I might not even hear a peep haha.
If you have free time nap! It is like time skips a beat haha.
If I didn't have exams I would be eating chipotle and watching TV haha.

So yeah I'm in the same boat, my #2 should call 8 am day of and my #1 should email at midnight. I'm probably going to just thank them and not give any specifics as far as committing to anything, I'm sure they'll understand.
Yasssss!!
I'm in the realm of 40% excited and 60% scared/worried. **nail-biting"* [emoji15]

"thank you for applying.."= rejection🙁
Only thing that's kept me sane these last few weeks is my confidence, not in an arrogant way, but like a "I tried my very best, things will fall into place hopefully" type of way. We got this
That how i felt after my interviews, but as we approach dec 1st, im starting to think of all the worst possible scenarios that can happen.
Exactly!! I am confident, but don't want to be too confident. [emoji120]

Do we even have to say anything other than thank you, cry, etc, etc... If they call?
I've been trying to keep myself busy to prevent too much of that thinking, prepare for the worst and you'll be pleasantly surprised!

I think they probably are used to funny responses, crying laughing cheering yelling, they probably get a kick out of it
You all seem so stressed out..soooo..im going to be putting some fun videos to watch...IMAGINE YOURSELF MAKING THESE VIDEOS IN THE FUTURE..IT HELPS RELIEVE THE STRESS

You have to deliver an acceptance speech.
"I'd like to thank my parents for lending me money to pay my application fees, my cat for always supporting me when times were tough, and last but not least I'd like to thank the admissions committee...they like me, they really like me! GOODNIGHT AND GOD BLESS"
10% is a lot! That says good bye to an A or even A-.
Trust me, you are not alone. I've been thinking about my interviews and debating if my answers were good enough, although I walked out of every interview thinking it went great. I've been doing that a lot and it just adds more to the already increasing anxiety.
I'm definitely getting more and more anxious. I have that feeling where you're sitting in class and your final exam for ochem is about to begin in 5 minutes....
Something I like to do to kill the time is to watch videos of OMFS. I think its cool and fun to watch. Its like Greys Anatomy because when you've seen them all you practically already a Doctor.
Or waitlisted to your #1 in state option and accepted out of state.. my biggest fear.
same

I was shadowing a D4 and she told me that she was wait listed and found out two weeks before school started that a spot opened up for her. She was doing a military scholarship so if she didn't get into dental school, she would have lost it or have to serve in the military.
Scary to think about.
This x 10
I think its different with every student; if I recall she was already in the military so she had one shot to get in. Don't quote me on this. lol
So this is my first time applying, would you receive a call or email first?

Depends on the school, some only email.
When should we start seeing people with acceptances tomorrow? Around 9:00 pm PT?
I think mine should be around 4 or 5pm eastern time if I get accepted at musc. I wont get the official letter until dec 1st, but i will know tomorrow because they send acceptance snail mail.

I've already seen all these D school videos like 30 times fam. Thanks for trying to relieve my anxiety though!
