hmmmm... are chocolate martinis any good?
Chocolate Bailey's, baby!!! Actually, MollyMalone and I had some excellent chocolate mixed drinks in a bar in New Haven. But I have no idea what they were any more. :laugh:

Oh, man, those were awesome! But I don't remember what they were called, either. 🙁 Hopefully we'll have the chance to go back and check.

Yeah, and hopefully that same guy will be bartending. Remember he said that he had made up the concoction? It wasn't a normal white Russian or whatever he said it was supposed to be. Do you remember what the bar was???

I am totally in love with Yale too...I called last week, and Grace told me their second look weekend was April 28 and 29 *I would totally miss my graduation to go there instead*

Oooooh, thanks for the info!

Edit: Wow, just realized that's right before Pritzker's second look. Oh, I hope I'm going to have a busy weekend!
 
Also a cooking fan (I make a mean veggie lasagna), and I want in on the chocolate parties too!

Imagine...chocolate parties with wine...at YALE.

:laugh: Are you going to fly from New Haven to Chicago for back to back second looks? You are a wild-n-crazy girl, MM. But it sounds like fun. 😀

It does sound like mucho fun. It's not as bad as it sounds, actually, since I'd prolly fly out of Chicago to CT anyway. 😀
 
i wonder if yale's second look funds for flights.... flying from cali es muy expensivo.

wait... one step at a time. i wonder if i'll get accepted.. :scared:
 
Dunno if you all know this already, but you can get cheap flights on Southwest to Bradley in Hartford and then take a relatively cheap CTLimo to Phelps Gate (on the undergrad campus) or even sometimes to the med campus. If you click on the 'Yale' button on the CTLimo site, you can get an even steeper discount (though you will ostensibly, but rarely in practice, need to show school ID).
 
If anyone's ever tried the Harvard financial aid sign-in route on the Yale page?
Probable a bad idea, but I'm really getting restless.
 
I'm getting restless too.......
And a little bit cranky 🙁

i was going to smack you upside the head for feeling cranky when you have acceptances to schools that others could only dream about. then i realized that i'm a bit cranky too. 😳 😛

I know... I know. I have no right to be cranky. I just am sick of the uncertainty, as I am sure almost everyone else is. I really need to take up a really time consuming hobby for the next 2 weeks.

Actually, I kind of tried that already. I got myself to have a crush on a boy (ok, man, i guess) so that i could obsess about him instead of Yale and the other final decisions i'm waiting for... But I think I have so much neurotic energy in me from this whole process that I might have just really scared him.

I just have to make it until the end of this month...... Yale, please don't waitlist me!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Yale decisions: are they coming out this Friday or next Friday? I've heard both dates

It seems like they'll come out March 31st, according to people on here who have called the admissions office.
 
just wanted to wish you guys good luck. yale is fantastic and it is people with this kind of enthusiasm that yale accepts. they are aiming to get the emails out to accepted students by next friday. hope to see you guys at yale next year 🙂 also, we love chocolate, too.

I think decisions go out next Friday! That's what I heard around campus.

Oh man, so I guess we're giving up on this hope. I was looking forward to word around campus being correct and decisions getting sent 3/24.

who knows? i think that they just love to play with our minds. maybe they tell us next friday, but send them tomorrow, just to screw with us. to top it all of, they only send it to like 5-10 people so that news can spread on sdn that acceptances have gone out, yet no one else has gotten in.

man, the sadistic things i could do as an adcom *rubs hands together* mwahahaha. :meanie:
 
Can we use this thread as the unofficial countdown to Yale thread? Because I'd really like a countdown to Yale thread, silly as it sounds. And even sillier, I don't want to jinx myself by starting a new one.

Count me in. Though I don't think I'm quite as obsessed as some of our threadmates. 😉

what're you talking about? i get more excited when i hear that Yale is releasing acceptances a few milliseconds sooner than originally planned than when i see a hot guy taking his shirt off. this is the depth of my obsession. 😀

OK, as the OP, I give you permission to hijack my thread. It can be unofficially renamed the "Countdown to Yale" thread. 😉

Is it still hijacking if you have permission? :laugh:

Thank you!

P.S. - I hope you hear good news from Penn tomorrow!

I will only get that excited if Yale releases one of its acceptances to me. :meanie: And since you guys and gals (I think most of you except kirexhana are gals actually!) are so awesome, I will also be excited if Yale releases some of its acceptances to y'all. However, I might get slightly distracted by the hot guy's naked torso, so you'll have to excuse me. 😍

Thanks for the encouragement. I'm so nervous! 🙂

you know what would be confusing? if a hot half naked guy came up to my house with a yale acceptance, then asked me out. i wouldn't know what i'd be more excited about. ah yes, then make myself a chocolate bailey.

Hmm, how serious is the hot half naked guy? Because remember, a hot date only lasts for one night, but a Yale medical school acceptance will last for four years. :idea:

what if it were a really hot Yale M2?

How about that Yale M2 who was teaching my Kaplan class and took a friend of mine home after a frat party? Err, on second thought, you don't want that one.
 
QofQuimica said:
Make mine a resident, and you've got a deal. 😉

sure, but will they have time for you? 🙄
 
All of this talk of chocolate, naked hotness, and Yale has me all atwitter. :luck: all and I'll bring some chocolater covered strawberries to the chocolate party, if that's ok.

sweetdoc
 
I love Yale more than naked men!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I can't find a good enough distraction. :/
 
March 31st can't come soon enough... Did anyone ever find out how many people they're letting in? Fingers crossed for everybody!

Their class is exactly 100. I don't think they overaccept, so I bet they have a very active waitlist.
 
I heard they take 150 or so initially and then work from there.

According to a YDN article of 3/22/05, Yale outright accepted 172 people last year. Some of the paperwork we received at the interview this year reveals that a total of 220 offers of admission were made last year, so it seems around 48 people were accepted from the waiting list. I have no idea how many tiers 48 people would cover.

This thread was on page three. Not acceptable when we are at T - 8 and counting.

Just out of curiosity, are there any other nonrolling schools that have yet to announce decisions?

No. Every school in the known universe has already given its decisions except for Yale. 😛
 
Hi all,

I volunteer in one of Yale's Primary Care Clinics, and one of the adcom members told me that they're mailing out acceptances on Tuesday. Good luck!

That would be sweet!

Not that I don't trust you 🙂, but can anyone else confirm?
