Yes. Plus, they may have extended my deadline for me a little too. :)
I didn't have all the money right then anyway, it was just fortuitous that NSU accepted me before I did have the money or I would have paid.

Paying more than one deposit would be lame. I purposely waited to submit my LECOM secondary so I wouldn't get an interview invite too early and get stuck paying two.

How's your tour across the country doing interviews going?

It's done! I finished my seventh and final interview this last Saturday. Maybe I didn't see every good school out there, but I saw enough for my poor wallet! Lol

I'm so jealous. I hope I get a happy phone call on 10/15 so I can be in your position.

Man oh man, I have yet to hear back from two schools I've interviewed at and then the cycle is over for me. Unless I hold out for one that's waitlisted me. That would blow...

Sound like a near specialty. I wonder if there is space related residency

rejection #1 finally came. kcumb, it was good knowin ya. If I was going to pick a school to be rejected from pre-intvw it would be KC, mostly because I don't really know much about the school.

My name proves my life in a nutshell. Life sucks, the college put me in remedial math, T-T, and I have no major, or women. Life Sucks.

Things are so hot and cold this semester.

When I'm busy, I'm locked in my study room for 2 weeks straight. When I don't have any tests on the horizon, I sleep all weekend.

I already decided I don't have time to study for the MCAT retake this semester, but it's times like this that make me want to reconsider for January haha. I've slept probably 30 hours since Friday. No joke.

Same thing here. All the midterms/papers due come in small clusters. I have 3 tests this week and a English lit paper due. 2 weeks ago, I had absolutely nothing to do.

Its sort of a good and bad thing. Over the past year or so I've come close to perfecting the staying up studying at night routine and also being fully functional the next day.

I'm thinking about taking a language course this spring semester. Its a 5 hour credit course on beginners Arabic.

My question is, anyone taken a language course on a completely different language you had little to no clue about? I'm excited to enroll in it but not sure how difficult it would be to learn a new language. I'm bilingual with English being the second language.

I'm taking Japanese:) I'm visiting my cousin before school starts in Japan. I'm excited. I've heard Arabic is very different from English, much more descriptive.

I was a Spanish major, and took the beginner level 5 credit American Sign Language course. It was awesome! The professor was deaf so it was definitely an immersion class. I did pretty well I think, by the end of the semester I was able to have fairly basic conversations with my wife, who was a Deaf Studies major and is now a college ASL interpreter.

I just wish I would have had more time to explore Italian or Portuguese. That would have been awesome!
