Sick of waiting...

[rocketscientist]

i called or emailed about 15 programs i had not heard from. black wednesday. shocking how many had not bothered to tell me i had been flat out denied! pitt, illinois, houston, ucsf, chatanooga, a few others that escape me, will not send rejections. call em up if you are still waiting. there were several that had still left my file open with no indication that i had been waitlisted. i felt much better after i cleared the decks - i highly recommend doing the same before the holidays if you can find time.

been great meeting many of you on the road. proud to be a part of the outstanding folks i've met.

cheers

BoneBlaster--

two men enter, one man leaves.

Got inspiration from the above posts and called most of the places from whom I had not heard anything. Only got a voice mail at several places, but in summary:

Grand Rapids, Robert Wood, Seton Hall, SUNY Syracuse, WVU - if you haven't heard by now, consider yourself not invited

Brooklyn-Queens - just starting to look at applications
St. Luke's - will continue to send invites through this Friday
Lenox Hill - invites within next week
Mt. Sinai - still making a list
NY Med West Chester - will get to it after the holidays
Union Memorial - hopefully will send invites by end of month

Hence, everyone enjoy the holidays, have a cold one, and rest assured that it ain't over yet

Ok, I need some assistance...if you know any of the following, please let me know (I want to book plane tickets soon).

What dates are the following programs interviewing:

UCSF, Lenox Hill, UMass, and the remaining Northwestern dates.

I am not holding out for any of these schools, but, just in case, I am only buying plane tickets for weekends that I know are filled for me (if that makes any sense).

Called Union Memorial and NYMC (Valhalla), both said they would send out invites by the end of this week.

Anybody get invited to Lenox Hill, couldn't get them on the phone.
