Sauna Posted May 8, 2017 Report Share Posted May 8, 2017 hahaha i swear my heart is beating so fast rn just talking about it. so the answer IS in the subject line? Apparently lol I still remember sitting in class in January (front row) and just seeing a notification saying "Good News from Schu.." and I started having palpitations and yelled out "holy shit!" in the middle of lecture.

CXR Posted May 8, 2017 Report Share Posted May 8, 2017 Does anyone know the approximate time one has to wait if they get low/normal waitlisted? Depending on where you are on the waitlist, can be up until the end of August (happened in my year!) But most people will hear back by late June Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cookacola Posted May 8, 2017 Report Share Posted May 8, 2017 Oh god the subject lines terrify me. I am not ready to have the result just pop out at me while I am refreshing like mad. honestly the scariest part!!!!!! i absolutely hate picturing myself having to sit there and just see the subject line. yikessssss. I don't want to go through that moment on Tuesday..... lets just skip to knowing the answer and not dealing with the 15 minutes surrounding getting the answer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
habromania Posted May 8, 2017 Report Share Posted May 8, 2017 will i even be brave enough to check on the 9th tho?? i'm always terrified of checking important looking emails and things (grades etc), but I guess I'm doing okay since I've made it this far...

Aegean Posted May 8, 2017 Report Share Posted May 8, 2017 guys what are the odds of getting in once you get an interview? about ~1/2? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
js660327 Posted May 8, 2017 Report Share Posted May 8, 2017 I'm actually looking forward to the subject line more-or-less telling me. With Dal's decision letter there was a generic subject line, an email saying "a decision has been made regarding your application", a link to click, a login and password to answer, THEN reading the actual decision letter. The anxiety levels increased with each step lol. Regarding what I'm doing today... probably a lot of cleaning haha. If the weather clears up I'm going to go outside and sand some furniture in preparation for stain and finish. If it doesn't, I'll either sew some stuff or knit some stuff....... I hate that I have today off work .... Can anyone else hear Effie Trinket's voice in their head??? "May the odds be ever in your favour!" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pantaloons Posted May 8, 2017 Report Share Posted May 8, 2017 Hey everyone, Best wishes for tomorrow. You've gone through lots of hard work, stress, and difficulty to get this far; you've already proven yourselves to be bright and talented people. Medicine. It takes a while to get in--often more than one try. And once you get through the door, it's just a longer road after that. But a worthwhile one. Take care.

Sauna Posted May 9, 2017 Report Share Posted May 9, 2017 I'm being superstitious af by thinking about the manner in which you check the e-mail affects the result.. why am I so stupid? The decision was made weeks ago. Intellectually I know this, yet I can't help myself from having these dumb thoughts. I'm trying to decide WHERE to check, what to wear when I check, trying to replicate what I did the morning we got our interview invites.. lmao. Meanwhile I asked my friend what he thinks of my craziness/how he plans on checking and he's just like "I'm gonna open my phone when I wake up lol" I need to chill and I can't.. so I'm just gonna pop 10 mg of melatonin, turn my room pitch black, and hope for the best.

I know I feel rather nauseated at the thought of even going to sleep. I did get to play with a 6-week old kitten tonight so that did help to settle my fragile nerves for a few hours haha! Not quite an armful of puppies but I take what I can lol. Deep breaths Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
applicant111 Posted May 9, 2017 Author Report Share Posted May 9, 2017 The last few days, especially the last few hours, have been immensely stressful, but this forum has helped me keep my sanity.I didn't have many people I could share my feelings with without making them hate me for being so annoying. This forum just let me get things off my chest, laugh, and not be so miserable in general. I hope to see all of you next year.

habromania Posted May 9, 2017 Report Share Posted May 9, 2017 Honestly y'all I would suggest writing a few letters based on potential outcomes. It was cathartic. I mean, I'm sure reading my rejection letter to myself won't make me feel that much better about a negative result, but they'll be nice mementos to return to in the future Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
