<p>@ az1698: The prestige of med school doesn’t really make a difference…cause an MD is an MD. I’d be happy if I get into med school period >_<</p>
<p>“What do you call a person who graduates last from medical school?..A doctor.”</p>
<p>@ metsfan - It is a good potential problem to have. Make a decision and fly with it, don’t look back and second guess yourself.</p>
<p>@twilightdream - thats not a 100% true. For getting into tough residencies, getting into tough fellowships, or even opening your own practice, graduating from NYU or Dartmouth as compared to Suny Downstate is an advantage. You learn mostly similar (if not the same) things, but you make more connections which can have a major impact. </p>
<p>Put it this way: If you had to choose between two doctors, your life on the line, would you go to one from NYU or one from Downstate?</p>
<p>****<strong><em>PLEASE NOTE I AM NOT BASHING SUNY DOWNSTATE. MANY OF MY RELATIVES HAVE GONE/ARE GOING THERE, SO I AM WELL VERSED WITH THE SCHOOL AND I LIKE IT. THIS IS THE BEST COMPARISON I CAN DO.</em></strong>**************************</p>
<p>so i got a letter talkin about the CUNY math test…how does that relate to SD? does it come after acceptance or like its for acceptance…i dunno if i shud take it or not…can ne one help?</p>
<p>I took that test today, it was easy. I dunno about the SD relation though</p>
<p>hey everyone…I’m new to this thread…does anyone know when we find out if we were accepted? my interview was a few weeks ago</p>
<p>I went to the admission office yesterday, and they said we would know by april 1st…</p>
<p>everyone who applies to a cuny school must take the math COMPASS test (which is what the placement test is). I was scheduled to take the test in late january, before interviews were being handed out for sophie.</p>
<p>az, did they say if it would be through email or snail?</p>
<p>Petals, they said we should get email by the 1st (3rd the latest). They send snail at the same time</p>
<p>Hey, when I had the interview for sophie, the interviewers told me we were going to be contacted on the 28. did anyone get an email?</p>
<p>nope…i hadnt</p>
<p>you have?</p>
<p>not me…</p>
<p>So far, nothing at all</p>
<p>hey guys i didn’t get anything either…i cant wait i had my interview in feb. 25 so its been a month of just worrying lol… hope you all get in =)</p>
<p>nothing for me either</p>
<p>I hate this wait…just hope to get in though</p>
<p>im dying guys…did you notice that in the previous years, the sophie students got their responses alot earlier…</p>
<p>you guys can go to page 20ish to see the forum from last years students</p>
<p>i called earlier this week and they said theyre sending out letters on the 31st.
i cant stand waiting.</p>
<p>does that mean we would get emails earlier?..</p>
<p>listen guys…i have a friend their in sophie and asked him if he can tell me whether i got accepted or not but he told me they are not even done with the interviews (march 25) so we still have hope and besides march 28-29 is on the weekends and there not there on the weekends…so they’ll probably send the snail mail on monday and you guys get it either tuesday or wednesday…and probably email you can expect it mayb late monday or tuesday for sure…</p>
