Members do not see this ad.

Your application is incomplete. We have not received your secondary, 50 bucks, letters, yada yada yada...


BUT, they still to this day have not sent me a secondary!! NEVER, not even on the status page which I checked t least once a week!!

AND THEN, I checked online and it says final decision letter sent 2/9/04.

What the heezy fo sheezy, guys?!?

 

[sinnah83]

Thats gotta suck. Did you call them?
I hope you get in at some place even better and won't have to worry about them.

On a different note, I don't think posting your interviews, acceptances, etc. would be arrogant or pretentions. Somepeople can give greater insight to schools they have interviewed at. Pretentious would be something like, "ha, ha guess what losers? I got into stanford and just got invited to Harvard. Ha ha." Big diff if you ask me.

On a totally different note, again. I ask why would AlreadyInDebt post something like that in his sig line? Freud would say that you are unconciously feeling in adequate seeing that a lot of SDNers are hot shots getting into top schools, posting their 44 MCAT on MDapplicants.com, so on and so on. In previous posts, I have sensed your hostility, though very subtle, towards these high achieving SDNers. Perhaps you should do some free associating so we can get to the heart of the matter. Your ego would appreciate it.

Apparently, according to my status page, the final decision letter was sent to me yesterday too. Except I was never offered a secondary in the first place.

Today's been a tough day.

 

[DrJ2B]

Hey Brickhouse!

I am so sorry you had a tough day. I hope you get that acceptance from Hopkins soon so you can be happy! Good luck with everything. You are in my prayers!

AID--

Call and find out what happened. Things happen so just explain that you never saw the change on the status page. I also received a letter in the mail alerting me to the fact that I was to sill out a secondary. Good luck dude!

 

[askew01]

I got that postcard today as well...but it was from DREW UCLA, not Geffen UCLA..

You are so full of crap. Look who is talking! Want some examples? Here you go, directly from your mdapplicants profile, if it's even real:

Cornell University - "rejected! Ouch my alma mater shows NO love!"
Dartmouth College - "rejected: didn't want to go here anyway"
Mayo Medical School - "reject: oh well. It's rochester, MN. 'nuff said"
University of Rochester - "reject: WTF!? pre interview reject from UR?"

Withdrew Post-Secondary
George Washington University - "hold list: withdrew. How dare they!"
University of California, San Francisco - "Withdrew: no chance in hell- Not a CA resident"

Now, is that arrogance? When you are rejected, there is something wrong with the school. Yeah, that's it. There is nothing wrong with you. You expect interviews/acceptances whereas I am grateful for them.


I am perfectly happy with my scores, my interviews, and my acceptances. I respect the feelings of others, as should any normal person. I know I felt bad when I had no interviews/acceptances so I don't want to rub it in to anyone who may be sensitive. If you have a problem with it, ignore me, baby! Seems like I may have struck a chord with you... Freud may argue that you are shifting blame to relieve yourself of the guilt you are feeling for being insensitive and rude.

 

[BigRedPingpong]

Ok, now we're talking! I see that your id has thrown its agressive drives into full swing. Your ego can no longer control its libido, unable to neutralize the undirected energy. You are projecting blame onto others, namely me. I'm the insensitive one. Me and the other hundred or so SDNers who post on Mdapplicants.com. Think back to your childhood... Did you like to tell people to "eat stuff?"---Ah, I see! You have fixated on the oral stage, unable to progress. You tell people to eat you when you are angry and your ego can no longer control your id, fighting and lashing you go to your only source of pleasure, the mouth. Yes, that has become your object of pleasure. You can do nasty things with your mouth. You call people names and try to hurt them. Reaction formation! ah, ha! You are the trying to hide your own insensitivities by calling others insensitive! I see the root of your problems! Please, more free association! This is going very well.

Where oh where is this hostility, subtle as it may be, you freudian scholar? Stop trying to plant thoughts into the heads of others with your baseless comments and "insights' about my posts. The only time I was ever somewhat-hostile was about NU's rude rejection, and even then, I was half-heartedly joking.

AlreadyInDebt,

the Freud thing was supposed to be a joke. Take a chill pill.

I see you went back and edited your post to put my MDapp stuff up.

This thread will be deleted in approximately 2 hours. Say what you have to say while there is still time left. I am too old and busy for this.

 

[BigRedPingpong]

On a more serious note: if seeing other people's progress during the application cycle is that big of a problem for you, why not just take some of your own advice? In other words, "Ignore me baby." Besides, you are calling a lot of people who do post their progress arrogant and pretentious.

they just probably sent you the wrong letter. they're all form letters so it's easy to make a mistake.

 

[camstah]

so does this mean that everyone has either been rejected at this point or offered an interview? for everyone who received a letter was this reflected on your status page?

Brickhouse, at least now you can give yourself an excuse to get away from NPI 😉

 

[camstah]

See too bad L.A. doesn't have (and probably isn't ideal for) an underground subway system. It'll make going from place A to B much faster.

Are you serious? Where do you commute to and from? LA traffic was bad when I was there last year, but it was never that bad.

Thanks Calbee, you've got a damn good point. I am bored of this lame NPI anyway!😳

They've been working on an underground red line for years...but LA is not centralized enough, and they had problems, such as tunnels collapsing and stuff like that. Yea, LA mass transit sucks ass.

hello. actually, LA does have an underground. remember the dramatic end of keanu's emotionally riviting scene in speed? that actually exists. too bad no one rides it. and those who do don't pay. LA spent too much $$ on the development & construction to now hire people to enforce ticketing. what a waste! http://www.mta.net/riding_metro/metro_rail/mr_system_map.htm

nonetheless--LA is still the best! 🙂
