I think Douglas Adams said it best:

DON'T PANIC

😀

Too late.

One hour left. Thanks to cowgirlcarrie's info about early emails I am having a terrible case a deja vu from November as I check my email every 2 minutes.

 

[colforbinMD]

YAY new page!
EF. Good luck at the dentist.

 

[irrka]

ok, so how is the stupid nrmp page going to change? still the green certified rol message. is that the thing to go? what if my email server goes down? (my school tends to do that to me at the worst possible times; aaaaaaa. maybe i should watch hitchhikers guide. "dont panick")

 

[colforbinMD]

Per cowgirl from two pages back on the thread.....
"The first page you will see will say "Congratulations you have matched!" On Thursday it will then add where right below that part. No button clicking necessary. I don't know what it says if you don't match since I matched successfullly last year. I hope I never know what it says if you don't match."

 

[irrka]

thanks! that helps. at least i'm not going crazy clicking every button in a row hoping something came up under that one 😀

I am sitting in my hangar office trying not to completely blow off the bone marrow registry drive I am (supposedly) running next door while I refresh the nmrp web site approximately 1000/min. *sigh* Why am I so stressed?

 

[drdrtoledo]

[colforbinMD]

[drdrtoledo]

Tee Hee... I was waiting all day to do that to you 😛 .

Do you think the dentist is asking EF if he matched while he is drilling away? 😀

People in my squadron are now openly laughing at my stress. Perhaps it's time to lose all their shot records....

This is torture.

 

[colforbinMD]

5 minutes. That's just one good jam but I don't feel like dancing.

Sorry mward 😛

 

[mward04]

last year at Match, noon came and went and the dean kept talking about how great everyone did. Could you imagine if someone right now said "let's take 30 minutes to talk before you find out if you have to scramble" That's what everyone felt like last year!

3 minutes...

 

[colforbinMD]

2 minutes left. That's just the length of lame pop song. Still don't feel like dancing.

 

[12R34Y]

I have my AAMC ID and password placed and ready to log in............2 minutes and counting.

 

[MedDeac]

are we supposed to get a email message or do we have to check on the NRMP site?

 

[mysophobe]

Ooo, I'm excited for you guys.

 

[medivac]

Isn't It Noon Yet????

 

[JackBauERfan]

I'm guessing it will be at both places. probably nrmp first then will auto email..

 

[12R34Y]

are we supposed to get a email message or do we have to check on the NRMP site?
