    10/2015: Waiting sucks. Happy to have an acceptance at UMN where I would be THRILLED to attend medical school but I still want to hear back from my other apps! At this point I believe it was completely idiotic to apply to MD-PhD programs given my grades. Oh well I'm still gonna be a MD!

    11/2015: Had one other interview at Boston University. Interview day went pretty well all things considered. Will update more about interview thoughts at end of cycle.

    2/9/2016: Cycle all but over. Assuming the vast majority of schools remaining are silent rejections.
