What did you receive today?

This forum made possible through the generous support of SDN members, donors, and sponsors. Thank you.
I got an interview invite from SLU today. I haven't had an invite since December, so it has been a while (I have been complete at most schools since September). However, I am going to withdraw the invite.

Hey bonnie,
I was an avid reader of your diary entries on SDN. I'm sorry to hear that NYU and Einstein are not showin' love. I was really rooting for you; you have some really interesting life experiences. Oh well, good luck with columbia and downstate.

I'm sorry abou the rejections but nowhere better than South Beach to drown your sorrows and have a great time and forget about those who gave up a great candidate. Have fun in South Beach!! I can't wait to go back there this summer!!
 
thanks 🙂
I interviewed December 4th, I think?
 
Don't worry Bonnie, I'm sure you'll get into one of your NYC schools. Your alma mater will show you love, I'm sure.
 
rejection from jefferson and GW. unfortunately no good news from penn state.
 
i seriously don't know how to handle all this anymore. i go check the mail and i see a small, thin envelope from my dream school, which i've been waitlisted at since november. i finally get the nerve to open it up, and it turns out to be a reminder to fill out the financial aid forms and other info like that. THIS IS TOO MUCH! ah well. hope you all heard some good news today.
 
in this nerve-wrecking week of waiting for some kind of a decision from nyu, i get a nice thin envelope from einstein: dear applicant, you are just not good enough, sorry........ couldn't they have told me earlier, instead of making me wait 5+ months post interview??????
 
I got some pink heart-shaped baloons 🙂) 🙂 🙂) and my friend got an interview invite to U Pitt!!!!
 
from my students i received...

a teddy bear w/a heart

two boxes of chocolate candy

many "Happy V-Day" cards

some hugs and kisses (on the cheek)....

...today was a good day!
 
chocolates from a student

SI Swimsuit Calendar and candy from my friend...

BR shirt from another friend.
 
OK so I was expecting a UCLA decision within these few days.

Only one letter in mail...and on the envelope...

"Take a Deep Breath" in big letters...:wow:

When I read closely, it was a credit card company solicitation about transferring your balance, so you have less debt and can take a breath of relief

Yea I'm dumb, I should have figured no med school will put "Take a Deep Breath" on the envelope, but for a second I was totally panicking!:laugh:
 
a letter from my best friend in Deuchland

and my cat trying to claw his way through the door!

He's so cute......... my little boy..........
 
a loud knock on the door at 7 AM and 6 dozen roses.....needless to say i was surprised as hell....i was like, who do i know that would get up at 7 AM, much less be knocking on my door???

now what would make everything perfect would be an acceptance to usc.........

oh, and i got a notice from my insurance company (about the dent left in my car when i parked in a parking lot by a driver who SUCKED cuz he didn't leave his information) that my deductible of $500 would cover the cost of repair.....um, no!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
 
Pitt rejection (Pre-int), where's the love?

Speaking of which--- Happy V-day all! 🙂
 
pre-interview reject from university of michigan via the status page. what a wonderful thing to wake up to. happy v-day indeed.
 
I get a eviction notice from my land lord today. Because I am three months behind in my rent... because I spent my last penny flying over the country for interview..... so far only get one acceptance from a great respectable school in NY..... I told my land lord I will pay him back when I get out from med school four and half years later with interest and penalty.... I also have also promised that I will marry her ugly daughter in return. Then he agreed, he had me signed the "promisary note". Just k/d hehe+pity+ 😍
 
two rejections from jefferson and georgetown
I 😍 you too!

at this point, I am thanking GOD I got in somewhere!!!!
 
got one from UMich...addressed to SOMEONE ELSE!!!.

being in a really silly mood, I called them up and demanded they reject me properly...

I got a rejection letter from my alma mater and current place of business, pre-secondary - UCLA. Thanks for rewarding my loyalty.
 
The thin envelope from Tulane. 🙁 Pre-interview.
 
Hmm. An invitation from Georgetown to apply for their POST-BAC program. That and a brochure from St. George University stating that "Medicine is still an option".
Very encouraging...
😕

I got the same 2 things!! Rather depressing - although the Georgetown thing said at the bottom that they sent it to everyone who applied. 🙄
 
Yeah I got the G'twon invitation for Post-Bacc as well. I was like "Geez, what are you guys trying to say, huh?"

Rejection from Albert Einstein (pre-int), hmmm now I wish I had just saved my $100 and went grocery shopping instead. This much peanut butter can't be good for you.

A waitlist from NYU
A Waitlist/hold from SUNY Downstate
A some useless paper about the alumi assoc. from SUNY Upstate
An acceptance from Howard
 
Acceptance at Case Western Reserve! :clap:
 
the official rejection from UCLA, although in all practicality it was months ago.
 
got the shaft from jefferson today...oh well=(
 
georgetown's GEMS post-bac program. never heard of it before but i'm not an under-represented minority anyway.

my brother (a junior in high school) is getting more mail from schools than i am. 🙁
 
on hold at downstate...nothing from NYU (scared)
 
AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

I got my first acceptance into SUNY Downstate today - the big brown envelope others have mentioned. Interviewed there 12/30.


I hope this is a sign of more good things to come.
