Psych Posted April 5, 2020 Report Share Posted April 5, 2020 Hello everyone! I know it's still a while away, but I'm already going crazy with the wait and I figured others are too, so I thought I'd start this thread so we can all get through this together! How is everyone passing their time in quarantine? MD_endgame, MDrapper, RejectedAgain and 6 others 8 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MedGoldfish Posted April 5, 2020 Report Share Posted April 5, 2020 Saw this as a joke post, but is it possible to use the "inspect element" function to find out results early? DrOzuma 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hbmed Posted April 5, 2020 Report Share Posted April 5, 2020 Quarantine is making this wait even worse than I expected instead of celebrating finishing fourth year with friends, I'm living alone with only school to keep me busy. Far too much time to ruminate about the interviews and stress about getting offers! Psych and MDrapper 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MDLD Posted April 5, 2020 Report Share Posted April 5, 2020 Way to much time on my hands right now. trying not to ruminate and pick apart the interview I did and stop wondering what Mac is going to do. Definitely trying to find ways to keep buys, exercise, and doing other hobbies. I'm a little sad because when I dreamed about being accepted I always wanted to visit friends, mentors and family that have been such a great support over the years. With the Quarantine now I guess if I am luck enough to get an offer the celebrations will have to be delayed. Happy to PM people if they want to chat about med school or life, to keep busy. hijkl 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With the Quarantine now I guess if I am luck enough to get an offer the celebrations will have to be delayed. i’m feeling the exact same way. of course it would be amazing to be accepted - but it really hurts that i won’t be able to celebrate with family, travel for a month or two before getting caught up in school, possibly have a white coat ceremony and orientation week, etc. it’s been really hard to accept that all these things i've been looking forward to over the past year, which kept me going when i was exhausted and overworked and drained, might not actually happen. (again - would be ecstatic to be accepted. i’m just feeling really low right now.) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

premed72 Posted April 5, 2020 Report Share Posted April 5, 2020 Hey yall. I really do think they would at least give us a white coat ceremony. Even if its delayed. Out of all this mess, that's the one thing I definately would want. I've been passing the time and staying distracted by learning how to cook more than scrambled eggs and playing a bunch of video games that I never had the chance of doing when I was in school LOL Whishing everyone the best in all this!!

MD_endgame Posted April 5, 2020 Report Share Posted April 5, 2020 I'm currently working from home full time so I'm grateful to have that distraction. Outside of that I'm baking and using up all the cocoa powder in the house lol. Also watching a bunch of Netflix so if anyone has recommendations lmk! Hope these next few weeks go by quickly and end with good news for us! Psych 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wannabemdplease Posted April 5, 2020 Report Share Posted April 5, 2020 I'm a non-trad applicant and a lot of life decisions will be made contingent on what happens on May 12 - very nervous and anxious, but really trying to tell myself everything happens for a reason. Anyone thinking of any backup plans in case things don't work out? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now, if only I knew how to read the code that pops up in inspect element or view page source... Maybe quarantine has given me the opportunity to learn coding and self-teach towards a major in CS? jgdiff and DrOtter 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dooogs Posted April 5, 2020 Report Share Posted April 5, 2020 Can't figure out how to put it in my signature but I have only 2 interviews. And one of them, Calgary, I had it yesterday and let's say it was at least weird af. Disappointing if it actually counts for 50% of admission. I'm not go into detail but whoever participated will know what I am saying Can't deal with more Corona news PLEASE Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've heard UWO posts application status on student center before it is actually announced via e-mail. So. Should I keep checking ?

Going to be tempting to check at mid-night There is no indication it was a glitch - at least as far as I know. Last year was the first year they revamped the entire OMSAS interface, that's probably why it hasn't happened in the past Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
