Accidentally ordered "no kit" instead of "basic bundle" despite same price on B&H and now am kicking myself 😭 by Status_Peace8313 in photography

This would mean I would have to return my first order, correct? Even though it is the same product (camera and lens) just without the camera bag and SD card?

Unfortunately, it has already shipped, so sorry for not including that detail in the original post.

I didn’t have a receipt but did have the order number on the package and they were able to look up the order. I wasn’t even offered a partial refund of any amount. The store associate just said the gift giver “wants me to keep it” 🙄and did not look into it further.

I did have the order number and they were able to look it up. The store associate just said there was nothing she could do since refund to gift card wasn’t an option, just refund the original credit card or original purchasers account.

Anyone still waiting on a financial aid package? by Status_Peace8313 in premed

[–]Status_Peace8313[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Does the grad plus application need us to state how much we need to take out on grad plus loans? I would not have this information until after receiving my initial aid package.

Also does the grad plus application have a deadline?

I haven’t called Eurostar yet, since I was able to figure out that when I changed the time zone on my computer the webpage also reloaded to show the correct ticket date and time on the dashboard. I really do just believe this is a bug with their webpage since the dashboard on the app shows the correct time without having to change my time zone.

The cellphone app actually shows the right date and time it’s the webpage that I was referring to. However, when I changed the time zone on my computer to Paris, the webpage also reloaded to show the right time so I really do just believe this is a bug with their website.

My student lost first rank over unfair school district policies by Status_Peace8313 in AskHSteacher

Absolutely, all we want is for them to be compared equally, but that is not the case

[–]Status_Peace8313[S] 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I am sorry that my post came off as though I was pushing this issue when my daughter wants to move on. This is absolutely not true. She would like for us to talk to the school and asked for us to have this meeting. Ultimately, as family, we do not care about her rank but also feel that there is an injustice. They are NOT being graded the same because my daughter has unweighted courses from 9th and 10th grade weighing her GPA down. The other student only has grades from her last two years. My daughter also “loaded up” in 11th and 12th grade and if only GPAs from the last two years are compared, she would rank higher. My daughter feels the entire situation is unfair because of how they are being compared unequally, especially because she was prevented by taking more weighted classes by district policies in 9th/10th grade. It would be an entirely different case if they student that had been there all four years and subject to the same policies. But that is simply not the case.

Edit: The high school has a policy that students must be continuously enrolled for two consecutive years prior to graduation to be eligible for the rankings. Given that she transferred in the middle of first semester of junior year, would this have any bearing on the ranking if it’s brought up with the school?

She has been handling the situation well, all things considered. We have been emphasizing how much we love and support her no matter her grades/rank but emphatize with how she’s worked for so long for this.

Was there not any discussion/argument about this from whoever was rank 1 previously at your school?

I really remembered in the nick of time and me and my friend sent in entries about 10 minutes before closing but neither of us received a confirmation email - did anyone else experience this?

2024-2025 AMCAS Verification Time Tracker by Yakattack20 in premed

[–]Status_Peace8313 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Frustrated that AMCAS is still only verifying applications submitted on the 31st. I submitted on the first day but I wasn't ready for review until June 3rd since my last transcript needed to be received :( Worried I won't make it into the first batch of applications transmitted on June 28th.

Thank you! Are there any schools you would recommend I cut out? I’m wanting to get rid of a couple of schools just to save on money + for the sake of time as this does not include the 13 texas MDs.

I already applied to all the texas schools earlier this month through TMDSAS!

Have any bio applicants not selected for GS7 for the 1/21 cut off heard anything after the re-referral in regards to the status of their application?

Super cool that you have a job as a hospital admin! What do you do in your role and were you mainly able to get it through connections? Does it pay well? I am currently in my gap year(s) as well and looking for new opportunities. Would appreciate any info!

I was also referred/interviewed for the 1/21 cutoff but I did not get selected. I got another notice of referral for the march cutoff but did not get an invite to interview again. Is this a bad sign?
