Not that I took the MCAT or anything, this past August, but just because I feel like you all should have a thread like the one Crazy Cav had for us in April..........

Here it is, your official Countdown thread...................

As of now, you have 54 days, 3 hours, and 1 minute left til score release..........

Good luck!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 😀 😀: 😀 :luck: :luck:

what is the experiment?
well, my dear watson...Im interested in determing the conformation of DNA following uptake via bacterial transformation in streptococcus pneumoniae. I labeled DNA with tritium and C-14 and pink highlighter (wait, just kidding about the last one there) and then we count the amount of label by adding scintillation fluid and putting the vials in a big bad machine that scares me.

Huh?? You’re description scared me and lost me on what you were talking about. I guess I don't have that much knowledge to help you on this. Oh!! Well, good luck with that.

thanks! good luck to you as well !
 
wow, it's when I read descriptions like yours, scintillation, that I'm glad I don't do research any more... good luck.
And good luck with your scores, too. I'm sure you'll do well.
 
is anyone else wearing latex gloves right now? i sense a connection.

if they are not out by 10PM on the dot, can they blame you? :laugh:
I'm blaming guju either way. Way to go and screw it all up!
 
anyone else have adds for scintillation counters on their google ads links?
mwa hahahahahahahah!!
 
This is starting to feel a little bizzare. It's hard to believe that in a few hours all that work is going to culminate in a few numbers on my screen.
 
We have to blame someone, so guju might get caught up in the emotions.

I can't believe less than three hours! I remember mine came out in June about ten minutes before ten p.m. I think. We're in such a frenzy at that time that sometimes the time seems to be different than it really is.

Good luck, guys! I'm on AIM if anyone wants to chat.

basically, the MCAT has been canceled and we all have to retake it tomorrow at 5 AM. If you don't take it then, you will never become a doctor, AND your life will end...painfully.
 
Desi: ^madarchods at AAMC are acting like a bunch of phudu's and putting the system down and that made us all go crazy because thats when they uploaded those marks, saley kuthey.

Well the Examinee Data has been posted as it was done so in the afternoon on June 15th 2005.

This is clear indication, that we are looking at tonight for score release.

You can find the examinee data by clicking on the examinee data thread and then clicking on the link they give you cuz I'm too lazy to reattach it here again.

But basically, the sample size of the test takers this year was 37,669 people which is about 10,000 more then there were in April 2005. Additionally, there have been about 5000 more people who took it this year as a whole then last year as a whole.

You will also be able to get the combined data from the AAMC website. The scores, are now, almost definitely coming out tonight around 10pm eastern time zone United States.

Oh my goodness!!! Sooooo close!!!! 😱
Oh, and Gujudoc - I'm currently applying to both med and dent school. I just thought DentalGal had a nice ring to it. Maybe I should have made it - DocGal or something to that effect, b/c what I really want to do is be a doctor! 😀
Oh, and I'm finally 50 plus posts!! Just in the past two days!! Talk about WHOA! 😱 😱 😱 😱 😱
 
Well, no one's been posting - I guess everyone went to go get or make some Din Din!
I just had some pepperoni and sausage supreme pizza that really calmed my nerves - frozen pizza, of course!

For AMCAS, yes...for TMDSAS you have to release them yourself...at least thats what I know...good luck! 🙂
 
nm, you know, one of those rectangular states out west. We're in the mountain time zone...
 
will anyone else be blasting emo music and sitting with the lights out when the scores come out...just to make it even more intense!
 
Yeah, all I've done this afternoon is sleep from 3 to 6 pm and then eat dinner. My stomach is doing flips, though. But I luckily have to be somewhere from 8:00 pm to 10:00 pm. So hopefully scores will be up by then!
