some frustrations from the applicants for this cycle about the holiday break. I know I hate it, though I do understand it. If you aren't feeling this two weeks of dead silence, vent your frustrations here!

Yes I need my former professor/advisor to email Georgia PCOM and state that he was more than just a professor but an advisor also since my school (UW Madison) did not have a pre-medical committee. So advice for LOR, get your profs to state they were your advisor if you do not have a committee. AND now my boyfriends parents don't want me to go into medicine but PA school so I am frustrated! Hopefully after the holidays people will start to email me back.

I wouldn't concern yourself too much with what your boyfriend's parents want. It is your life and your decision. Do what makes you happy, and then worry about the other stuff.

I feel your pain buddy! I have a pretty simple, but important/deadline sensitive question, and have to wait until the end of 'break' to get it worked out!
 
Ugh, I hate the break. I feel ya' JP. I'm thankful that I have some interviews coming up that have helped to take some of the stress out of waiting, but the silence is killing me.

Good luck with your deadline, I imagine its not only time sensitive but bank sensitive as well. I hate it when we get saddled with those decisions, but by the same token, it is a nice problem to have or at least it is better than the alternative.
