    01/12 - Waitlisted at SLU. Disappointed but not really surprised. I didn't feel good about the interview. It was my first and I was really nervous. Hopefully will hear better news from other schools pretty soon. Still hoping for more interviews to come. :(
    01/15 - Rejection from Georgetown :( There hasn't been any good news in a while
    01/17 - Another rejection from Columbia P&S :(
    02/04 - McMaster rejection
    02/07 - Rejection from McGill post-interview :'( Totally unexpected...I was told that the results won't be out until end of March. Very disappointed knowing that my chances of going to a Canadian school are probably gone.
    03/13 - got an invite from Toronto - can't believe this is happening
    03/15 - just checked the SUNY Upstate online status page - decision made ... hopefully it is at least a high priority waitlist :(
    05/15 - waitlisted at Toronto, accepted at UMN-Twin Cities :D

    I am going to medical school!!!!!
    07/20 - got off the waitlist at Memorial... can't believe I actually get to choose. UMN or MUN? US or Canada? St. John's or Minneapolis?
