Hey everyone.
I thought it would be nice to give people a place to vent frustrations at his whole ridiculous process. I am completely? going insane, first waiting for MCAT scores and now praying that I'll get in. All this knowing that I probably don't have a shot. Man this process sucks. So have at it, and vent we're all going through it.

Insane in the membrane. Oh, why do you wanna be a DO when your name says MD?

 

[MDmiracle]

That's a joke for another poster who was giving me grief on the DO forum. I really don't care what my initials end up being, I just want to practice medicine.

Sign me up for the going insane club. I cant stand the suspense. If this drags on for a full year i might burst. Hopfully we will be one of those people who gets an offer during the interview. Its hapened to quite a few middle of the road applicants i know of. What a relief that would be huh? A september acceptance.

 

[Eraserhead]

I'M IN

I think I'm going to be going steadily more and more insane until I get an interview invite.

How do we stop it? Go running 3 times a day? Find a new hobby?

Amen! But this is the reason I am going insane 3.04 GPA and a 32 MCAT. So I have no clue as to what the ADCOMS will do. at least if I was average on all fronts I'd have some idea of where I stand.

damn, I thought i was the only one about to go nuts... aren't those annoying secondary essay questions make you feel imcompetent and drive you up the wall? well, it definitely sloshed my brain around a few times...

anyway, I'm in!

Sign me up as a member! I am going insane waiting for AMCAS to verify! Went active 7/28 and been checking the aamc.org site twice a day ever since. Why is everything always about waiting??? No wonder the wait at Dr.'s offices is sooo long....they're so used to waiting by then that a 3hr wait is nothing. 🙁

All aboard the crazy train. . .

Still waiting for AMCAS. I submitted July 7, and I'm still not verified. ARRRGH.

 

[....]

..if your wear plaid boxers and its over 74 degrees outside i will not talk to you 🙁 (i am wearing plain boxers right now, and its 76, no lie)

 

[soonerpillow]

I was going crazy until last week when my Premed Committee finally got my Committee Letter sent out. Now I'm okay again. Of course, I check my e-mail about every 15 minutes, but that's not crazy, right? Right?

 

[lisa13579]

Checking your email every 15 min. is not crazy.....well I do feel a little crazy for doing that. I try to close the browser completely so I can actually do work at work. I think I only checked my email once an hour yesterday and I felt a little calmer, but today I just minimized the browser......oh, well!!!!!!!!!

 

[lisa13579]

I'm also obsessed with seeing who's gotten interviews, but it just makes me more insane....but I can't stop refreshing SDN. HELP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

i may let u drink someof my kool aid stash... if someone didnt steal my 1liter sipper bottle...nm its in the dishwasher..ohhhh yeah come over..cherry or fruit punch?

ps: be quick..i dont talk after the simpsons come on

 

[finnpipette]

wow, sometimes i think this website is not healthy for me. the only people that post are prolly hard core premeds with crazy stats...but the numbers clearly show that mcat averages are 30-32 for almost all of the schools and the gpa variance is huge. i need to stop comparing myself to people who are completely obsessed with this process before i get sucked into it. i'm gonna sit on the couch, watch the simpsons, and drink some beer while eating peanuts.

 

[deleted29780]

This would be me right now ...

I can't seem to sleep thru the night anymore and I am worrying about the money, will I have enough? How much is all this going to cost?

I've also begun obsessing about maybe I should have put a comma in the last sentance of my amcas essay, because it sounds weird now without it, and maybe this will be the reason why no one will accept me ...

I feel insane !
