123izme Posted April 11, 2013 Report Share Posted April 11, 2013 I am not sure what I plan on doing May 13th yet, but hopefully something that will keep me preoccupied. Maybe take a trip to the zoo or something? I love the zoo . I think I am going to try to stay up all night on May 13th, too, so that I will be so groggy when I read the results that if it is bad news I can just go to bed haha. Hahaha. But if you wait till May 18 to go to the zoo, you'll be able to see the pandas! I am not even going to try to sleep on May 13th. I have a night of movies planned with a couple of friends who did not apply ...although I have to be at work at 8:30 AM the next day Edit: I assumed you meant the Toronto zoo.

worriedforherfuture Posted April 12, 2013 Report Share Posted April 12, 2013 May 13th I'm at the Paramore concert. That should distract and tire me out sufficiently that I pass out as soon as I get home. Then I can wake up to hopefully good news. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leon Posted April 15, 2013 Author Report Share Posted April 15, 2013 So I just spent the last hour completely traumatized. I had a dream within a dream but when I woke up from the first dream I didn't realize I was in another dream. In that second dream OMSAS released all decisions accidently on April 14 instead of may 14 due to a systematic error. I was rejected everywhere but wait listed at UT. Everyone on pm101 was celebrating and there were some very legit sounding posts and I was totally depressed. Then I woke up for real but thought I HAD woken up already but fallen asleep and woken again (ie. I thought the second dream was real life). To confirm it I opened my laptop and my hands were shaking when I refreshed my email. When nothing popped up I nearly died from relief. Ommmfffgggg Let the madness begin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BAMFtastic Posted April 15, 2013 Report Share Posted April 15, 2013 This is an amazing idea. I'm going to start looking for concert tickets... Good idea, but there are no regular concerts around me.

doc_someday Posted April 17, 2013 Report Share Posted April 17, 2013 I had to forward myself my (originally deleted) rejection letter from May 15, 2012...just to help prepare me for potential bad news come May 14, 2013. ha! Does anyone know if you get a wait list or offer(!) email, does it show up in the status? For the rejection email, it just said "McMaster MD Application". It's really not that big of a deal, I'm just anxiously waiting for May to arrive! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
missmathematics Posted April 17, 2013 Report Share Posted April 17, 2013 This might be a silly question but what are we checking on may 14th? Our emails? Or omsas? Do we ever need to log on to omsas again? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do we ever need to log on to omsas again? The e-mail that you provided OMSAS. The admissions committee will send their decision to that e-mail. It will also show up on OMSAS but I don't think that's as fast as the e-mail. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RiverCityJill Posted April 17, 2013 Report Share Posted April 17, 2013 What do the rejection emails say? I'm absolutely horrified. I'd also like to know this as well as what the subject was for the 2012 acceptances if someone recalls. Thinking about this gives me butterflies but, overall, this last week I finally managed to chill out a bit and stop ruminating over my interviews. I'm in a holding pattern. 4 weeks today!

Dasypus Posted April 20, 2013 Report Share Posted April 20, 2013 I have to keep telling myself responses will only go out on May 15, because I'm going to be on the other side of the International Date Line. If I get an email, it'll come at 1:00 a.m., of all lovely things. I guess I'll be checking when I wake up Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
