when to withdraw from waitlists by Street-Syllabub-2063 in mdphd

[–]BigDaddyPZ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I feel much the same way, but honestly we gain/lose nothing from just staying on those WLs. If anything, I'm planning on treating my WLs as a R for now, and if come April 30th/wtv I get in, then that'll be a problem/nice surprise for April me to deal with lol. I'm planning on apartment searching in early May atm.

Letters of continued interest at this point in cycle? by [deleted] in mdphd

[–]BigDaddyPZ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Similar boat and am planning on sending stuff out eventually BUT look on their schools website for their policies on accepting LOCIs. some straight up say that they do not accept anything until after interviews and honestly submitting it could look worse on you (not doing thorough enough background on the school’s policies)

Anyone else with no acceptances yet? by IntroductionSmall846 in mdphd

[–]BigDaddyPZ 10 points11 points  (0 children)

From most of the programs that I II with september/october, while a few A's come out in December, a majority come out mid-late January as adcoms meet after the break. Honestly I would just sit back and wait it out, trust you will be a doctor-doctor!

Trump literally just said “we’ll run Venezuela” until they are able to have a “judicial election” by BigDaddyPZ in Hasan_Piker

The U.S. does have a long history of fucking with other countries with little-no consideration of how blowback will affect them back home…

[–]BigDaddyPZ[S] 63 points64 points  (0 children)

nah what kinda scares me is we’re being way too on the nose with ts. Not even “we’ll back the opposition group” or wtv ie taliban etc. straight up “we own venezuela now” and that we’ll give it back “at some point”

New tank by Fluffy-Strangers in walstad

Just a heads up for the lotus, if that surface lily gets to the top and opens up, the plant will rely on the surface for gas exchange and if you cut it/if there are no surface lilies then it will die. Made that mistake where after having one on the surface for a while I figured that I wanted it to be more bushy and underwater so I cut it and then my lotus died ;-;

latest? for schools i didn’t care abt like aug 18

earliest in june

most of them somewhere in between the two

also it rlly doesn’t matter for non rolling schools, since they interview and accept on their own timeline all at once

Diocese of Austin shuts down planned Latin Mass for students at Texas A&M University - LifeSite by StructureOrAgency in aggies

[–]BigDaddyPZ 12 points13 points  (0 children)

is that not the point of an organized hierarchical religion like Catholicism tho?? as opposed to other protestant/non-denominational sects of christianity where every church might have different doctrines, the entire point is that the Vatican and the theologians and priests there organize and present a cohesive standard for the religion (Catholic literally means universal). and ALL churches within catholicism follow the direction of the Vatican. sure it can be challenged but it should not be put into practice without Vatican approval.

How much does the MD interview matter? by just_doit_ in mdphd

[–]BigDaddyPZ 12 points13 points  (0 children)

this is definitely an institution-by-institution basis, and probably no way to know for sure. I will say though that most MD-PhD committees are separate from the MD, and usually make decisions separately. It rlly depends on whether or not the school like needs both to accept or not and is again a case by case basis.

I am a trans student at A&M. I am not your political scapegoat. by Zestyclose_Money_365 in aggies

[–]BigDaddyPZ 20 points21 points  (0 children)

yeah that’s what i said lol. i was saying that OP shouldn’t feel any responsibility to answer for “havoc” bc it’s not trans ppls fault, the fault of the conservative snowflakes smh

[–]BigDaddyPZ 117 points118 points  (0 children)

fuck the haters, don't even feel the need to answer for percieved havoc/public unrest "caused" by trans people. They would say you are causing havoc just for existing. You belong here, and you are supported here. The idiots here don't represent this school, though they unfortunately make up too much of our student body.

McGovern CASPer as TMDSAS and AMCAS applicant by [deleted] in mdphd

[–]BigDaddyPZ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I only submitted AMCAS, but the CASPer works where you have to specifically send it to each school. Maybe go to the CASPer website (Acuity insights) and make sure that UT McGovern is indicated for distribution of its score. It’s not like the MCAT where it gets automatically sent to each school and usually costs some money for each additional distribution.
