I am not posting where I go on SDN, so that's why you haven't seen it. But basically I picked my school based on the program and the financial aid package I got. The geography had nothing to do with it; I didn't apply anywhere I didn't want to move (i.e., out west).
Speaking of which, even with all my interviews, guess who I still haven't heard from: Baylor. 🙁 Well, I guess it's still early; only to TX residents, it doesn't feel like it.

How was the testing site? I got lost on the way to mine! 😱 UCF SUCKS! It's just a bunch of circles within circles! I'm used to grids 😡 I eventually found it along with another guy who got lost, too (turned out he wasn't a UCF student either).

The testing was in the individual rooms of the building and no one used the auditorium. 17 students, including me, where in my room (only lastname S). The timing the lady did was TERRIBLE. She wouldn't write down the start and end times on the board and just looked at the clock at whatever random time (not even the second hand at noon) to start. She actually lost track of time for WS 2nd part, she said 5 minutes at the 15 minute mark. Everyone started to get freaked out, but I had to tell her we had 15 left, lol. The second lady in the room confirmed.

Other than that, very quiet, at least for our room. We were at the end of the hall. Everyone else's rooms were passed during breaks by the toher students (except ours) so they got distracted I think. Their proctors got pissed at the passerbys. The a/c was nicely set, too, and the desks were ample. 🙂
We did individual rooms too. There were about 15 students in my room. The AC was too low and I was freezing so I am glad I brought my jacket. I was almost late, cause I passed my exit. lol. Oh well.

That's the norm. I have to confess that I"m the same way. I'll read the abstract, and a lot of times I'll just keep going after the first few sentences. 😛 If it sounds interesting, I might read the conclusions too. That's about it though. Most people do that. You don't have time to study every poster in depth.
I usually do that too. Also, I'm a sucker for pretty pictures. 🙂

BB, Nik, Williams, Guju, anyone else taking the mcat...congrats on being done!! 😀 :clap: :hardy:

I'll probably get a J on the writing. I thought about neutrality for about 2 seconds, couldn't think of anything, then went on with the libertarian spiel.

Welp, I have no idea what the heck those are. I had the 2 easiest ones I've seen in my life (they were both reused on practice exams btw).

I'm so glad the Buccaneers play the Dolphins today. It is THE perfect treat after all this bs. Go BUCS!

What's wrong with out west? 😛

One last question from the MCAT:
Tonight at the fair I'm getting which?
A) Completely Tanked
B) Breaststicks
C) Deep Fried Twinkie
D) Pineapple Whip and a Corndog

brett likes pineapple whips...... but this was tricky since i'm sure he likes breasticks too. :laugh:

oh useless information

Except when it comes to grammar apparently :meanie:
No, it doesn't count, because I know the correct grammar rule and chose to ignore it. I considered saying "to whom," but decided it would sound pretentious and make my point less understandable. 🙂

yesssssssssssss!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! except, the bucs can go to hell. :laugh:

Uh oh. I sense competition in the air. I could go both ways...but when I was younger I had a boyfriend that was overly obsessed about the bucs, so I could deal with rooting for the Dolphins. Also, I would LOVE to go to UM...so I better get started on my Miami teams.

That's nice but I was referring to your use of "your" when it should have been "you're"
 
I am SO EXCITED about the race tomorrow that I am totally beside myself. I am going out now to get a shirt. I was going to get a shirt at the race, but I can't go there without a shirt!!!

I'm excited for you! You're going to have so much fun. 😀

I do have a pit pass, and I will take many many pics!!! I'll post the best ones here, and email you the others if you want.

I am SO SO SO SO EXCITED.

I was just talking to my mom, and it was really funny, because she was rambling on about something and I was rambling on about the race. Talk about talking AT each other instead of with each other. :laugh:

OK off to get a shirt. WOOHOO WOOHOO!!

Listen 😛 I like ALL FL teams, include college. But when it comes down to it Bucs > Fins = Jags and Magic > Heat and UF > FSU=Miami=UCF for sports. Which NFL team won the most recent SB for our State and doens't have recurring drug problems on the team? I rest my case. 🙂

:laugh: I haven't been to a race like NASCAR or F1 ever. My dad took me to my first and only car race in West Palm Beach when I was like 3 (something like Can Am maybe) and he said I LOVED it. Same on my first airplane ride when I was 2 😀 I still love both. Have fun if we don't talk later tonight.

What kind of mistake is, "I am the anterior cervix." ??
Hey, I deserve more respect from y'all for my multitasking ability. I am reading every thread in this forum, watching the chat, and posting in this thread, plus cooking dinner. So one typo got through, what can I say??? :laugh:

So mean. 🙁 Cats are (usually) sweet.

My husband owned psycho devil cat before we were married, though. He would attack me in my sleep. He went to a new home when I moved in with my dog - she had seniority. 😉

Ohh...my cat is cool though. He's eating french bread on my bro's bed right now. :laugh: He got in a fight yesterday morning at 6AM with a bitch cat and I had to break it up. The other cat just causes problems. My cat doesn't really fight back. 🙁
