to check PHARMCAS for updates more than three times a day? I thought waiting for my PCAT score was bad. HAH!!!! That was nothing.

I do find it a bit unnerving to just be sitting, waiting, and wondering how all is progressing with my application. I realize PHARMCAS sent out a confirmation email of my submission, and for that I am thankful. However, it would be nice to get an automated weekly email saying something along the lines of, "Your application is being processed. As soon as we have verified all of the information in your application we will send you a confirmation email comfirming your verified status." That wouldn't be such a bad thing for all of us literal and figurative nail biters, would it?

I can definitely relate...it's just one fine characteristic of the type of people who apply to pharmacy school. Give yourself a break-after all, if this was your patient you were checking up on, that would make you a great practitioner!

Side note...when UMN gave us iTouches this year, it allowed me to check for grade updates about a dozen times a day. Probably not healthy ;)

Are you kidding me? I can't even keep track of how many times a day I check that damn site. I should really stop though; my GPAs aren't going to be calculated for at least another 2-3 weeks, so there's no point in checking daily for updates that just won't be there.

If PHARMCAS wanted to make a killing they would charge us per log in. Could you imagine the profits.

I am waiting to hear back after an interview and I check my online portal to the school about every 5 minutes because that is how often it is updated. It is insane trying to study for finals when you have that decision hanging over my head.
