4 weeks and counting!! I feel like it'll fly by pretty fast, since May is coming to a close soon. So how are you guys going to occupy your summer, just curious.

🙂

 

[Arsenic]

So is this the official up-until-1 a.m. thread? Or have people decided to go somewhere to chat? I don't want to miss out on the action 😉

too bad its not a countdown with an actual time to count down to. its like... 10...9....8.....8.....8.....8.....8.....8......

I finished my AMCAS on Saturday and got too excited about it and got into a bike accident.
Now I am having to limp around the lab, loggin on to SDN on a bunch a different computers to see what's going on, all the while avoiding my manager (who is currently a lot faster than me due to aforesaid accident).
I know one of you guys knows my score.....

Tell me.

Please 🙁

Dude that's hillarious. I can just picture it now, the boss chasing you around the lab.

That would be torturous. Thanks for the support!!!

 

[gujuDoc]

Yeah but on this ride some people exit happily at the end 🙂 and others are hurled off the tracks! 😱

I think there are more anal premeds not on this forum too. Its just that they don't like to admit it.

Good luck everyone!!!!!!

Tigress, Junebug, Wetlightning, Sail Crazy, Shredder, my money's on you guys getting to be in that half that has the high score ranges.

All the rest of you all,

WOW!!! thanks guju, you are so sweet. i sure hope that things work out for all of us i feel close to you guys now <tear>...we have to keep it up as we all begin the saga of applications!

and in case you guys have been wondering why i've been gone, my laptop is screwing up and i haven't been able to get online for a LONG time! i really really hope it holds out at least until scores go up 👍

breathe, everybody! watch movies, eat, hug someone you love 😍

 

[KNightInBlue]

Good Luck everyone 🙂

Yah m y laptop is screwed up right now due to it having crashed some time last semester.

I just obssess by living out of the USF COMPUTER LABS!!!! When the main library closes, I go to the medical library and login over there.

However, tonight, I'll be using my roommate's laptop after hours. Let the almost 6 hour countdown begin.

Good Luck everyone 🙂

lol. Thanks for the luck. It's nice to see current and soon to be med students out there supporting everyone still going through the process. It's a nice feeling to know that those who've been through the process are out there and thinking about those that come after them. So THANK YOU!!!!!!!!

 

[Kix]

i feel like i've been using this thread as a substitute for seeing my mcat score. since logging into aamc isn't getting me results, i've been updating this thread every 3 minutes to see new responses. sigh.

 

[LaDoctorFutura]

GOOD LUCK!
I'M GOING CRAZY 😕 😕 😕

 

[LaDoctorFutura]

Holy crap! The MCAT scores aren't released!!!!!!

???? don't do that.

 

[gujuDoc]

Holy crap! The MCAT scores aren't released!!!!!!

Was that your scores from last year????? If so, I'll say congrats on getting a good score like that and on getting into med school. I think I recall reading you were on the waitlist til about a month ago. Am I correct?? If so, congratulations and good luck in the future.

Thanks for helping us out, and thanks for trying to keep us sane with your joke yesterday about the patheticometer

That was awesome.

 

[Turkeyman]

Holy crap! The MCAT scores aren't released!!!!!!

Hahah that had me confused for a while till I clicked "quote" and saw the filename was called "thisisfake" ;0

 

[rain1_rain1]

OMG, dat's dirty! 😱

How was the trip to Boston???? Are you still there????? Or are you back in NC??

I bet it was beautiful this time of the year.

 

[cadaverage]

does anyone still think scores will be released tonight despite the ever so slight change on the aamc website?

No, those aren't my scores, I actually scored a bit higher, thanks for taking the joke so well 😉 but the moderator had me delete it because he felt like it was bad taste.

Yeah I do, all of the messages remind me of last June. If you are an east coast person I recommend doing something fun to get your mind off the scores and then checking between midnight and one. Don't even bother logging into the website, just refresh SDN. There are so many people here constantly checking their scores that you will know the moment they are up.

i am still in boston!! interning here for 2 months...it's sooo fun! i love the city, and it's a definite change from being down south. how's your research going?

 

[gujuDoc]

Yes, because technically tomorrow could mean midnight. Also, they are just saying that to cover their butts so if it doesn't get put up, they'll have an excuse.

Last year, it said it was going to be up at 2pm in October.

However, my scores already popped up an hour earlier. So you never know.

 

[Clocks]

I wish there was an easy way of releasing this built up "tension"...

 

[tank you]

wow, this thread is making me crazy.

 

[Turkeyman]

does anyone still think scores will be released tonight despite the ever so slight change on the aamc website?

hahah yeah I'm still being stubborn 😀

 

[MollyMalone]

If they had actually wanted to be helpful, they could have said they would be up after such and such a time tomorrow. But they didn't. So I'm thinking anytime after midnight is fair game.

 

[gujuDoc]

Cool cool. Yah, I bet its beautiful. I want to go up there soooo badly. I've seen pictures and it just looks so old style and europeanish in the pictures. I know NC looks Europe like too, (I went there last summer) but Boston is well....its one of those places everyone wants to go for its top institutions, big city feel, diversity, and yet old style design.

My research is going good. I gotta do an HPLC tomorrow. Today I didn't have to go in the lab. That's why I've been hanging out here.

 

[SailCrazy]

I still think midnight.

They have the Examinee data up, they're probably just waiting for the upload of individual information to be complete...

Its gonna be a looong night.

 

[EFuller]

I am one of those premeds who has been reading SDN, but haven't really participating... I can't hold it in anymore. I just read the new aamc message too. "The April 2005 scores will be available here on Thursday, June 16 (i.e., tomorrow).
Thank you for your patience.
"

Its really frustrating... I want my score already!!!

goodluck everyone

ahh, so you were sucked into the blackhole too.

 

[IgweEmeka]

Alright guys, take a minute and seriously think, by this time tomorrow, most of us will most likely know where we stand and where our future is headed. Thats pretty deep if you askme. Coming from someone who has a lot of dreams and aspirations beyond being an MD, this is a serious thought to me. Anyways hopefully things come out great for myself and y'all. Peace guys and remember have fun always.

Me too. As crazy as I'm getting at this point, I'm glad I have SDN to indulge my neurosis. I can't imagine what the MCAT takers who don't use SDN must feel like.

Maybe they're all actually out enjoying the day 🙄

 

[FocusedToGetIn]

yup.... i cant get away!.... hoping for it to not be a late night... i have to get up for work at 5AM!

 

[Daichi Katase]

I have a hot date tonight!

 

[Tony326]

I have a hot date tonight!

With your computer?

 

[Daichi Katase]

With your computer?

Nah! A real one! 😀

 

[MollyMalone]

Nah! A real one! 😀

Have fun!!!

 

[humuhumu]

I have a hot date tonight!

Actually, I do too -- with my wife! 😀

 

[Caligirl98]

Can't take it anymore so I'm going out for margaritas!!!!!

Hopefully by the time I get back either the scores will be up or I will be too drunk to care! 😀

Good Luck All!

 

[FocusedToGetIn]

Here's a tip....
don't let the mcat scores show your hot date your neurotic side... at least not tonight!

 

[Turkeyman]

I'm gonna go take a dust bath

 

[Hoberto]

I'm gonna go take a dust bath

My chinchilla loves taking dust baths! Maybe you'd like to be hooked-up sometime?? Or are you not into that whole interspecies thing?

 

[Hoberto]

I have a hot date tonight!

Me too, with my hot and heavy Ochem Book. If I wait much longer he'll think I stood him up, though.

[gujuDoc]

Man I was about to freak out.

I was trying to sign back in cuz I was switching computers, and I kept typing my username wrong.

Anyhow, I didn't catch it and kept trying to login, and so after 5 tries it told me that I couldn't login for 15 minutes, so I had to get a new password.

So anyhow, I was going to freak out.

But I'm back. Just wanted to share. Not that anyone cares.

 

[humuhumu]

Well, have fun everyone. I'm logging off now; I'll probably check in again around 11 or so. 😀

I finally finished my personal statement. Unfortunately it's too long and doesn't flow very well yet. But hey, it's a work in progress...

 

[MollyMalone]

We care, gujuDoc. 🙂 That would have freaked the heck out of me too.

On a different subject, what's for dinner?? I'm bailing on my post-MCAT diet for the next 24 hours and I'm trying to decide between fried chicken and pizza. Thoughts?

 

[gujuDoc]

No, those aren't my scores, I actually scored a bit higher, thanks for taking the joke so well 😉 but the moderator had me delete it because he felt like it was bad taste.

hahahaha

That's crazy, that was sooooooooo great. I can't believe they made you take it down. Congrats for getting good scores and making it through the application cycle.

Don't worry, I needed a laugh for the day. I think we all did and know that we are pathetic. I don't think anyone fund it offending. At least I didn't.

Yeah I do, all of the messages remind me of last June. If you are an east coast person I recommend doing something fun to get your mind off the scores and then checking between midnight and one. Don't even bother logging into the website, just refresh SDN. There are so many people here constantly checking their scores that you will know the moment they are up.

How true about the SDN having a thread as soon as the message changes.

Last October, just as I was going to post, there was already a thread made for post your scores here.

 

[Hoberto]

We care, gujuDoc. 🙂 That would have freaked the heck out of me too.

On a different subject, what's for dinner?? I'm bailing on my post-MCAT diet for the next 24 hours and I'm trying to decide between fried chicken and pizza. Thoughts?

I am seriously thinking of Mi Pueblo, of local mexican place. There have the best margaritas in Cleveland and food that is actually mexican. Something similar is my suggestion.

 

[mustangsally65]

TheDarkSide: Cheesecake! And Potato Chips! And anything else that's fatty and greasy and probably kills you! One of my favorite things to do when I'm stressed is eat chocolate. Not too good for the hips.

I'd go with the pizza.

humuhumu: I'd be happy to whittle your statement down if you want me to. I majored in English (concentration in Professional Writing), and worked at a newspaper for a year, and now I'm working for an international editing company. Not to brag or anything, 😳 just wanted to let you know about my credentials so you'd know I'm kind of qualified.

Good luck with the waiting, everyone. maybe there's only a few more hours left.
