<p>^And that NEOMED rejection we’re both eagerly waiting on lol</p>
<p>oh im not waiting for that one, i already have it in my mind. hahaha</p>
<p>@sanguinee I’m sorry to hear that…the interview process has been vicious this year, or so it seems. Are you in-state for Cinci?</p>
<p>And @butterfli123, I’m assuming your OOS as well? Did you apply RD for NEOMED?</p>
<p>@keen did you get the Cinci interview?</p>
<p>@butterfli @sanguinee it’s ok guys, I’m IS and STILL got rejected from Cinci. Pity party anyone? perhaps we can take some solace in the fact that cinci isn’t easy (contrary to popular belief)</p>
<p>Yes im OOS, about 5 min from the ohio border (UGH). i applied EA, rejected pre-interview. and now my app is in RA</p>
<p>@phloppy95 Yes, I got the interview, but I’m IS…a total crapshoot though. A friend of mine applied last year with stats similar to my own, and she was rejected pre-interview. @butterfli123, so close! I’ll keep my fingers crossed for you as this process continues. Hopefully we’ll all be laughing about this process a few months from now.</p>
<p>i swear, it’s just like medical school, anyone could get in!
Thanks, and im really looking forward to looking back and hopefully explaining the whole process to the class of 2014 :)</p>
<p>congrats keenandgear!! good luck on your interviews!
guess it’s another week of anxiety eating away at my soul until the next round of notifications.</p>
<p>Thanks phloppy! This whole process is nerve-wracking, but on the bright side, we’re pursuing something that most high school seniors haven’t even thought about, let alone heard of. So kudos to you!</p>
<p>hey guys! okay sooo i got the rpi supplement and i had also received the union supplement from amc back in december. they sent me a new application id but not a new pin number so when i log in, i’m unable to access the supplemental application; it just says the deadline for this supplement has expired. but on my email it clearly says it’s due a week from now. is this happening to anybody else?! and if anybody is able to open the supplement maybe they could post the essay questions here so i don’t need to wait until monday to call them? thanks!</p>
<p>Hey LongLegs! I just received the union supp, got the RPI in December, so opposite situation of you. I was able to log in, but as far as the RPI essays, the first is about why you are interested in research, and the second is an “about me” type of essay. I’m sorry that I didn’t keep the prompts themselves, but hopefully that helps you get a head start.</p>
<p>thanks so much! idk if you were able to see the union prompts or if you need those? if you’ve seen both of the prompts then do you know if the second prompts for union and rpi (the one about yourself) are the same exact prompt? also, any chance you remember the character limits? thanks again and i hope i’ll be able to log in soon!</p>
<p>@keen yep I’m OOS and indeed this process has been extremely vicious for this year…
@longlegs are you going to submit the same ‘about me’ essay to RPI?</p>
<p>@sanguinee: idk, are they the same exact prompt though? i still can’t log in. and if they are, i guess it wouldn’t hurt since amc is supposed to review all of the files separately. but to be on the safe side, i’ll probably write up a new one.</p>
<p>Just receives u Toledo bs md interview :D</p>
<p>Just received u Toledo bs md interview :D</p>
<p>@LongLegs I can’t access the RPI supp anymore, but from what I remember, it seems to be the same “Describe yourself” prompt. The Research essay should be under 1,500 characters and the Describe yourself at 1,000, including spaces.
@desigirl23 Congratulations! Did you choose the bio-engineering or BA route?</p>
<p>^^yeah you probably can’t access rpi anymore since it was due already…but i wonder why i still can’t access my rpi supplement 
i’ll probably call monday to figure it out. thanks so much! are you planning to use the same about me 1000 character essay or are you going to write a new one for union?</p>
<p>Yeah, I submitted in December for RPI…but I received the Union supp a few days ago and am able to access it, that’s weird that they didn’t give you a new PIN!
As far as the About Me goes, I think I’ll write a new one. It’s only 1000 characters, hopefully it won’t kill me.</p>
