Patience is a virtue ... wait. Fuq!

Patience is instant gratification, the need for virtue is not...

I hear november 1st is when you should officially worry that you don't have an II, so at least your concern is valid.

The need for patience is instant, gratification is not.

The need for patience is instant, gratification is not.

Not even virtue?!

I can't logic.

All gratification is virtue.
No patience is virtue.
Therefore, no patience is gratification.

AEE-2 CAMESTRES --> valid

OP is right.

Virtue is not instant, gratification is the need for patience.

@efle check this!

[Doug Underhill]

Goro never said exactly how much patience you needed. It may be several years' worth, unfortunately.

Now I'm even more worried u.u

I would assume the November 1st thing depends on when you were complete too.

End of August/beginning of September?

One day I might outdo myself, but today this will do...

patience is virtual, the need for instant ramen is not

Top ten weird extracurriculars that adcoms dont want you to know about. #3 will shock you!!

 

[Doug Underhill]

Based on how this cycle is going "Adcoms hate this guy" sounds like a good descriptor for me

Can't find one for the MCAT one

 

[Foreest]

they will come .. dont you worry =)

 

[XxThaDoggxX]

No offense...But I am tired of people telling me not to worry...I cranked out over 25 apps and spent nearly 4k on application cost between the MCAT prep and secondaries for near silence from almost everyone...I AM WORRIED, I AM FREAKING OUT. SOMEONE GIVE ME NEWS, GOOD NEWS AND SOON.

 

[mehc012]

Ah, that's pretty recent. Nov 1 may not be a realistic sadness-date for you, then, especially as slow as they seem to be this year.

 

[Glandzburg]

I was complete in July last year and still received a handful of interviews in December & January. No need to panic yet - no news is still good news at this point.

But January interviews will cost me $800+, blerghhh.

感謝 - means "grateful"

My school will take you, Lulu. Just send an app somewhere west of the Missouri River.

Now where are my II's? It's November already and nobody wants to see me

 

[Goro]

No it's: "the need for patients makes a doctor"

The need for patience is instant, gratification is not.

 

[LuluLovesMe]

Stop taunting me, goro! You know I don't know where you are.

I would seriously send an app there if I knew.

Can we appreciate this pun, please?!

There are 11 DO schools unambiguously west of the Missouri River, and one that kind of is in some places and east of it in others (KCUMB). The Missouri River runs through Kansas City, MO and I would not describe KCUMB as being "west of the Missouri River" but Goro's sense of geography may differ from mine.

Goro has explicitly stated on here that he's from a certain state. Applying to his school is a 50/50 proposition once you acquire that information.

He's from NY but that's not where his school is. I am applying to both NY DO schools anyways though ;P

My bad, I will rephrase. Goro has explicitly stated on here that his school is located in a certain state.

 

[WedgeDawg]

Hey guys I have an idea lets stop trying to figure out where Goro is because if we do he has to stop posting on SDN forever

 

[mehc012]

If med schools knew how impatient I really am, they'd never let me in.

 

[arc5005]

Wish you the best of luck, Lulu!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[Lawpy]

Alternatively, speculating and revealing the exact info on location/identity etc. of a member, especially an adcom, will get you permabanned on SDN. So yeah. Let's not do that.

 

[Goro]

Aren't all schools in a certain state? And no, not a state of flux, either!

My guess is that they're in a physical state.

Well I find that offensive as I was planning on matriculating to the University of Phoenix School of Medicine, the "Harvard of Online Colleges."

Yah, didn't you hear? It's the "P" in the HYPS of medical schools....Harvard Yale Phoenix Stanford

They're rumored to average a 530 MCAT....and lifetime membership into the Illuminati....

In fact, the school is so damn exclusive it's by invitation to apply only, and isn't even part of AMCAS. Pretty much the pinnacle of medical education.
