Thanks man. Any news from you? Why don't you post about it?

If you think it will make others feel bad you are wrong. No one really cares. I don't post to show people how cool I am, it is so people can follow along and determine which schools are interviewing/accepting/rejecting and when. Play the game.

Don't leave people in the dark.

hahaha i have heard nothing in a week.

well i've heard plenty, just not from any schools...

Were you disappointed? The letter told me SPECIFICALLY to be disappointed.

My letter told me that, too. Guess what? I am not disappointed. :laugh:
 
Peoples, try and keep the negative talk away from the good luck.

Wow, the lpositive vibes from this thread are amazing. Thanks to everyone.

Now for even better news!!!!

I just received my UTSW interview!!!!!!! I am so excited that I am shaking. UTSW is my number one school. Dr. W called me personally to let me know about it. I don't have a date yet, but they said me email and letter would be sent later this week or early next week.

I can't explain how happy I am. About a month ago, I drove to Dallas and met with Dr. W for about an hour. He is awsome and the school is awsome. I am really glad I made the trip.

Anyway, thanks again to everyone, I love you all.

Good luck, the news is on its way!
 
The good karma vibes worked again.

Last week was good (Duke interview invite).
This week is already better (UConn acceptance).

Rock on everyone. Keep the good news flowing.

Hi BraneDoc! Congrats on your acceptance!! I am applying to Duke too, could you tell me how long it took for them to invite you to an interview since you were complete? I've been "complete" at Duke for a month, although my LOR's went in last week, and I'm just wondering why oh why they don't tell me anything 🙄 . Thanks! 😀
 
JDAD

awesome. last week your good karma brought me interviews from baylor and columbia. This week is wash u. (the invite arrived one day after the standard "congrat on your mcat performance" letter they sent out to everyone 🙂)

If you are also applying to baylor, I hope to see you there!

cheers,

I was complete for 3 months (!) before they sent the invite. Hang in there. If there's anything I've learned thus far in the process, it's that patience is a virtue. Good luck.

Thanks for the reply! I guess I'll have to keep on waiting 😳
 
I haven't heard much this week since it just began. However, I do hope something good will come this week. It's been a long long wait, and I am very tired of waiting.

Yeah I laughed when I read the first line. They took themselves very seriously. I really wasn't that disappointed.

We all need some good news this week, so how bout we all yell a big cheer on 3. 1,2, WHOAH BUNDYYY!!!!!! Anyways, hopefully this week goes well for all of you and for me too!! Later crazies
 
Woo hoo, everyone! Let's keep that good news rolling in! Next time, I'll be writing from New Haven!

:luck: Wanting to hear from Dartmouth, Columbia, and Vermont... :luck:

Buenas suertes!
 
Psycho Doctor said:

The first line is "I am writing to share what I believe will be disappointing news." It ends with how the appreciated the chance they had to learn something about me. It was a bit over the top in sensitivity.
 
got an interview invite from tulane for dec. 17th. these threads are great.

UChicago Interview would make my week 😀
The more I read about their research program, the more I am falling in love with it.

not to mention the indian girls there eh ? 😛

BTW GOOD LUCK EEVERYONE 👍 :luck:

I guess you are thinking about UIC. UChicago/Pritzker doesn't have many Indians girls or Indians on the whole. But that isn't going to stop me if I get in there. They have very good research program, considering that I am limiting my choices to IL (and downtown schools) right now.

Btw, I will have lot of friends at UIC Med school. So I can always go there and check out the Indian girls. That way I can have the best of two worlds 😀
 
This is already a better week: Harvard and Columbia invites today! 😀

Good luck, everybody!!!

:luck: :luck: :luck:

How did you get the Harvard invite? Snail mail or email? Also, are you an August MCATer?

Congrats by the way!

Harvard invite was by email. Yep, I'm an August MCATer, received their completion email about two weeks ago.

Good luck to you! :luck:

Thanks, I also got the completion about two weeks ago, I guess I should expect to hear farely soon if I am to be interviewed. Mind if I ask your digits? (GPA and MCAT) [I'm pretty sure they must be sick and scary though]
 
dandelion said:
Thanks for the good wishes. Hope everyone receives more good news this week. Let's keep the positive vibe going!

My numbers are 3.9+/37S.


Thanks, and I am glad you are being rewarded for your hard work. Good luck

Congrats, JDAD! What day are you going to be there? Maybe I will see you, my interview is on 12/4. Wow, so Dr. Wright called you, that is very nice and personal! UTSW is a great school and I really can't wait to interview there (not to mention its my only invite so far, so I am praying iI get accepted!). Anyhow, congrats again. Oh, could you PM me your stats if you didn't mine?

Congrats JDAD and Dandelion! Dandelion, i interviewed at harvard yesterday and it was awesome, no stress at all during the interviews. I hope you have a similiar experience. Definitely plan on some down time during the day though...


I have some good news myself: a columbia interview invite came today! for december 7th.
 
Bump, is there no good news to report?
 
My idea of good news has been reduced to the fact that U of R acknowledged receipt of my letter of intent today and confirmed that it's been added to my file. It's probably a long shot, but waiting to hear from them is still torture! :scared:
 
I just received a notice of completion from BU (and it's 10pm here), so that's my idea of good news, kindof pathetic :meanie:

Well, at least one little e-mail brightened my night :laugh:
 
my good news started today. i got an interview at emory! i'm really pumped about it. i 'm just hoping to have baylor add to my inbox soon...

congrats to everyone. the week's still really young, so keep thinking positively!!
 
I got a Pitt interview this week 🙂 Very happy about that.
 
Yay, UT-lilly & stinkycheese!! The good-luck thread is working its magic. 😀

And a big congratulations to JDAD for getting those Texas invites, esp the one for UTSW. Thank you, JDAD, for starting this thread!

Good luck, all. 🙂
 
halfway through my third week of "no news is good news!"


wait, no news sucks....
 
This week is better than last week! I thought last week was great because I got interviews from two schools I had been waiting for forever, but this week is much better because I GOT MY FIRST ACCEPTANCE! 😀 😀 😀 😀
I'm going to be a doctor!

This week has been great. I interviewed at OHSU yesterday and absolutely loved it! I think that the interviews went pretty well, too. 🙂

Yeah, I'm along these lines too. I'm complete at Stanford, Temple, and Rosalind Franklin . . . finally (lazy LOR). Last week I got 4 rejections, and this week I've gotten nothing, so that's my good news . . . I haven't been rejected. 😛
 
I just received a notice of completion from BU... I guess that's my good news... C'mon schools!!! Show me some love! :meanie:

Congrats to all of you with new interviews and acceptances! 👍
 
I don't have any good news yet ...but I was hoping some of you guys' good karma would rub off on me.

Here's to this week being better than the last....Cheers!

😀
 
I have not heard anything for over a month, but I should be getting a letter from EVMS soon, hopefully it is an acceptance, but where is the love from the other 17 schools I am complete at. Come on interviews. =) Lets make it a super week

do you miind if i ask you your stats 😳
thanks... good luck on ur interviews

priyanka,
i got an interview at harvard too and i definitely don't have a 37 mcat, more like a 31 🙂 so there's hope for low-ER stats folks at harvard! (i'm not a urm either)

Are you an august mcater by chance?
 
wow, congrats!! maybe I should have applied.

but then again I have no research and i'm sure it's needed there.
 
Okay, I'm going to write this week off as not as good as it looked. More waiting, car broke, and we had to move the lab again 🙁 . However, I did get spectacular coffee from the grocery store 👍
