Does anyone know if UPenn CAMB is sending out invites all at once or in batches? I didn't hear back today and I'm just wondering if I'm out of the running...
It seems like the different subsections of the CAMB are sending invites out at different times. I applied to the MVP and it doesn't seem like anyone has heard back from them yet. Although, if you applied for the GGR I did see some people say they heard back, but don't take that as a said-and-done deal!

I went for MVP. It looks like no one has heard back from the MVP coordinator yet... More waiting then
I also went for MVP. Very excited to hear back!

I think it might depend on which concentration you chose. I applied to MVP and I'm not giving up hope yet - don't worry!
Congrats to everyone who already heard back from UPenn CAMB! @lmb123 I also applied to the MVP and I haven't heard anything yet! Stay hopeful and stay positive!

2. play fallout 4
3. look at cat gifs
4. work? so hard to motivate right now...
5. Clash of Clans
6. Clash Royale
7. Feed your snail
8. Making a sandwich

I'm gonna quit my job and hike the pacific crest trail before grad school starts. And if I don't like that I'm gonna go ski bum in new zealand. Suckers! Of course I can only do this because I have been working for a number of years and have some money.
That's awesome. I would love to have the money to travel and do something like that. Enjoy it!

I just signed up to volunteer for the first interview weekend at UPenn, hopefully I meet some of you there
Awesome! Hope if I get an interview that it is that weekend! I figured the invites wouldn't come out today because I saw the holiday party scheduled after hahaha

I'm planning on distracting myself by cleaning. I need to anyway, and it's nice to come back from winter break to a clean apartment.
I have one more final tomorrow, so I'm trying to study for it but it's not going so well

I am so anxious

Skype pre-interview invitation from Gatech QBio
Nice! I still don't understand the concept of a pre-interview skype call... just seems like a lot haha.

I got an interview for Pitt on November 23rd! But I also completed my application pretty early (November 1st). They said they started looking at applications as they became finished, so they'll probably send out a few more waves of interview requests. Good luck!!
Congratulations! Hope it goes well!

Well, you have to figure out a way to take your mind off the process. Otherwise, you're going to lose your mind. I'm actually being pretty serious. This is an important time to demonstrate to yourself that you can manage a work-life balance.
Harvard BBS is a great program with a lot of pros. However, like any other program, there are also many cons. If you would like to know more about my experience, I would be happy to talk with you via PM.
Just sent it. Thanks @blc073!

I suggest you all just relax and avoid checking your email too often. Check it once a day or so and do something else to occupy yourselves.
The true anxiety begins after you get invitations and you have to wait a month or more to interview.
@blc073 that's what I'm trying to do! It's just an anxious/exciting/scary time in life haha.
On a side note, how do you like Harvard BBS? Now that I'm done with applications and stuff I think it would be interesting to hear about it from someone who went through it all already and is in the program! I applied as my "reach" school, just as everyone else probably did lol.

@Neuro15 email refresh frequency will be at an all time high next week haha.
-
@hopefulPhD2017 Well that's good! I'm actually looking forward to the interviews. I love talking to people who are passionate about what they do
.
I haven't heard anything yet. I also have a "ready for review" or "under review" on some of my applications, but no emails yet
It's still early but I'm so nervous about it. I just want to know I have an interview somewhere haha.
-
The anxiety waiting for these damn emails is horrible! I catch myself refreshing my email 15 minutes after I JUST checked it... It would be nice to say that studying for finals takes my mind off of it, but I only have 2 finals (one of which is a joke). At least I have Clash of Clans and Clash Royale
