yeah I was on the alternate list too. We were so lucky to be accepted for 2008 without having to reapply, I couldn't believe the news when they told me!
 
Congradulations to all!!! I was also on the alternate list from last year and just sent in my deposit! I'm going to be applying for PBL.

I couldn't believe it either. We are lucky not needing to reappy!
 
Hey guys congratulations on getting in! Enjoy your time before medical school. If you're thinking of PBL definitely do it. My buddies and I are all PBL students and we are currently sitting in our PBL room watching Halloween (and we have a huge anatomy exam on Tuesday)...see, medical school can be fun....:laugh:

Ah the good ole days 🙂 Miss them PBL rooms sometimes. If ya see Dr. M, tell him I rocked Step II and I'm on cruise control now. 8)

Is broomball still alive and well on Thursday evenings?
 
MKendall, Good to see another Connecticutian (this is now a word) in the class of 2012. Where in Ct are you?
 
Hi guys,

We just finished a large CV test here. And, at the health center we did a Men's Health Screening. 😱

I had to stab my person repeatedly with the needles. I felt really sorry for the pt, but he was a cool dude.

Anyway,

I wish you guys the very very best!:luck:
 
Well I figured I'd better post once again in this thread. Only b/c Im so freakin happy to be going to medical school in the FALL 😀 Any advice thus far catsandcradles?

haha, I think I've actually used the word "Connecticutian" at some point... I'm in Norwich, right near Mohegan Sun. You?
 
I don't like being called a nutmegger. I don't know how to nutmeg. I'm in Glastonbury, just outside Hartford.

you should be able to access the local housing list through the check status page once they process your final deposit. you may have access already.

This was the case for me too. It's nice that WVSOM gives us a good start to finding a place to live. Is anyone thinking of buying? I'm still debating.
 
Im planning on buying. My rent now is ~900.00 without utilities. Im thinking a mortgage would be alot better. 👍

I applied about 3 weeks ago and Dr. M said the committee would be "meeting soon." I guess soon is a relative term? Haha. Hopefully we'll hear soon!

And Glastonbury's not too far from here. I took a few summer classes at CCSU and drove by there every day.
 
Yeah, I recall hearing a "soon" in there somewhere as well. It certainly is a relative term when you're the one doing the waiting.
 
I just found out I am accepted for 2012 class. Just waiting on decisions from a few other schools before i decide for sure. Hope all goes well for everyone.

Congrats!!! That is awesome. Is WVSOM your top choice?
Click to expand...

YES!
it wasn't untill i learned more about it it moved fast to the top...but when i went there...i was blown away😍
it just looked and feeled like home...like my polish bieszczady mountains where i grew up.
I looooved everyone, people were so nice, i love that it is a rural setting because for someone crazy about outdoor sports there will be so much to do...i am not a person who likes going out...i rather go biking, skiing, hiking or something :laugh:
so i am totally ecstatic...
at this point i know it is very early in the process and i could get other interviews but i am done! i will be going to WVSOM next year!

oh, and they have PBL which is definetly what i want😀
 
Hey good job Dr. Kicia! I know how much you wanted this!!! I'm so happy for you!!!

So excited to find out today! Just interviewed last Friday (10/26) and the webpage was updated today! I had to call the admissions office just to make sure and found out I'm golden! So look forward to an incredible ride the next couple years. Class of 2012 here I come!
