Sick of waiting...

i don't want to come off as a whiny little biatch, but how come about 1/4 of programs got their invites out starting in OCTOBER, and here we are, the last week before christmas (and first night of channukah), and some programs haven't even STARTED?!?!

i just don't get it.

soudes, you are a whiny little bitch! just wait until i kick your skinny cartman ass during your interview day in the big apple!

has anyone heard from U. of Michigan???

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--

you talk a big game...i hereby throw down the gauntlet.

i challenge you to a PBR drink-off at brother jimmy's.

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
