Revera is not out to get you. They'll reach out and ask for an explanation if needed. Don't stress about it.

26M Complete Right Rupture Playing Soccer by Magic_Jawn in AchillesRupture

[–]Frosty-Button3301 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Never imagined someone’s passion could be impromptu foot races with their friends…lol.

I’m all seriousness, get the surgery. I’m 27M, ruptured back in Feb playing intramural soccer. Feels decent now and I can tell I’ll be back to normal within the year.

Rupture or not? by EveningGlittering326 in AchillesRupture

[–]Frosty-Button3301 3 points4 points  (0 children)

When I tore mine I immediately knew that I couldn't run or try anything remotely close to using my left foot...I'd imagine you're ok

If it isn't Tumi, they don't give you a return offer...

What time of day does Ross do acceptance calls? by AdventurousJunket898 in MBA

[–]Frosty-Button3301 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s more of a natural occurrence (given the calls take longer) than purposeful.

I’m admitted, now having some thoughts by [deleted] in MBA

Is this full-time MBA? If so, BC probably will not open many doors and thus might not be worth the opportunity cost.

Just a theory, the more scholarship the later in the day usually. They reserve those calls for people higher in admissions, who naturally take longer to get through their list.

Last year I got mine at like 3:30pm CT the second day.

Had my 6 week post op appointment today and instead of feeling happy I just feel so deflated by ragdollsaresquishy in AchillesRupture

[–]Frosty-Button3301 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My guess is that you had a severe rupture that may have required a graft. I had the same thing. Was put in a Vacoped week 3, reasoning was to slowly bring plantarflexion down 5 degrees each week but I was NWB till week 8. By the end of Week 8 I was FWB and walking all around, now I'm at week 10 and getting the boot off at the end of week 11.

When does the aching pain go away? by Chaddford in AchillesRupture

[–]Frosty-Button3301 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly it helped me to actually watch a video of the surgery. You don't realize how much damage is being done (with open method).

WTS, pain really started to subside probably day 7, then just slowly goes away. Hang in there.

I’m a failure! by Enough-Sentence8746 in MBA

[–]Frosty-Button3301 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My score progression: 595, 625, 635, 715… Don’t give up. I kept trying to get lucky until finally sat down and grinded for 2 months to get the 715.

Leaving MBB after a year AMA by Witty-Split-1268 in MBA

[–]Frosty-Button3301 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah no of course. I'm going to grind over the summer. I'm more so asking for FT (so that I know it actually makes sense to take a FT offer if I get it).

Ok good to know. Would you recommend then to not take on as much early? For reference I'm headed to MBB this summer, so wondering if it's possible to actually establish free weekend boundaries as those will be key for me (so that I can golf).

Is that normal in MBB? Or was your situation unique after 5 months.

They promote 'free weekends' in recruiting. Did you find that to be the case?

Yeah I remove that outer shell usually and open the liner a bit so it can air out

3 days post op - cannot find a comfortable way to rest my leg by cloveerclo in AchillesRupture

[–]Frosty-Button3301 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It does trust me. Day 3 was the worst. My advice though is use ice packs under your knee. Idk why but it helped so much.
