    Hi Lestelle12- I'm wondering if you were at the Thursday night recruitment thing and if you interviewed on the 19th. I'm in the pediatric tract and I remember meeting someone from LA - husband or...

  6. Any UCSF Mepn Applicants?

    jaxnaud replied to Louise409's topic in Post Graduate Students

    5:30 or 6 sounds great- we just need a place. I figured a pub that served food would be accomodating to non-drinkers and those of us who love a beer on a Friday evening :-) I'm not sure if anyone is...

    Oh my gosh Sci-Fri!!! CONGRATS!!!!!!!! I am so incredibly happy for you. I'm going to go home now. It is actually only about a 1/2 hour early for me. I can't believe I held out this long.

    ATTENTION FELLOW LETTER-OBSESSED-MEPN-APPLICANTS: Quick update... I just called the school to calmly ask if we were still on track for the letters to go out by the March 1 deadline. She said "yes."...

    jaxnaud replied to Louise409's topic in Post Graduate Students

    diddle and the rest of us going crazy during this waiting period- if you called on Friday, and she said "end of next week" then March 1 sounds like it is still their plan. I would guess that they're...

    I was the same way in December, although I was fairly confident during that period and was more just anxious to get confirmation that I got an interview. Now I have mixed anxiety - a little nervous...

    jaxnaud replied to Louise409's topic in Post Graduate Students
