Interviews 2005-2006

I finally got my invite to Temple in the mail this afternoon, 2 days after many others, and too late to call to confirm an interview time. Not to sound ungrateful because I'm very happy to have another interview, but I hate snail mail! This is the first time I wished I didn't live in California.

Now it's Tues. I still haven't talked to the coordinator about scheduling - somewhat important since I have another interview that afternoon. For those of you that are in a similar situation, I finally called the main office, and it turns out she won't be back until Thursday. I was told to call her at 10:30 am. Good luck.

Personal Email from Penn State....and I thought it was all over...
as Jon Bon Jovi says... "Lord, we gotta keep the faith."

A Christmas gift! Penn State on 12/24 by personal email after a rejection several weeks ago.

Hey Hipscrew.
You think some people cancelled when they got the Temple interview for the same day.

The way some ortho programs are handling the application process has actually has started to turn me off (a bit that is) to the field

I mean I'll take what I can get but rejecting people and then asking them to come to interview later is highly unprofessional and downright ugly (for a lack of a better word). Keep a F**KING waitlist and tell folks they are on the waitlist (GWU was fantastic in this regard).

This uneven power structure in this process has to change... this is ridiculous!

Anyway enough of my rant... also got penn state after rejection but declined, going to Temple.

Goodluck to all.

Just received a heads-up call that I'll be receiving an invite e-mail in the next couple of days with details - how thoughtful .
