I got my phone call from the desert today!

bowlingapple · 12-13-2005, 07:48 PM

uh oh....how long ago?

pmt_rules · 12-13-2005, 07:54 PM

It came at 5:30ish EST, but I was only able to receive it around 7:30. I honestly didn't expect it.

Yeah, I got a call this afternoon. 4 more essays! Why am I so excited?

jono · 12-14-2005, 12:25 AM

they call different people on different days (if they're doing it like last year)

oli_ · 12-14-2005, 05:30 PM

do they only call people who make it to the second round, or do they call everyone?

BenSnyder · 12-14-2005, 06:28 PM

I'm nervous...

I think they only call the people they accept - the rest have to wait for a rejection in the mail. At this point it's looking like I'm with the latter group...

Don't worry, it's "early yet."

shivers256 · 12-15-2005, 04:30 AM

That's quite cool. I *hope* to get to meet you!

oli_ · 12-15-2005, 02:47 PM

I'm from Canada...

but it isn't looking good, pretty much just waiting for the letter now.

ulimssol · 12-16-2005, 06:11 AM

hey does anyone know how many students they have accepted to round 2?

shivers256 · 12-16-2005, 09:01 AM

usually about 40. They asked me if I still planned on completely round two, so of these 40, I think that most are going to complete the application.

To all you guys who didn't get phone calls - don't loose hope! I just got a thin manilla-sized envelope in the mail today with the second round application and never recieved a phone call. Anyways, I hope to see some of you @ DS in a month or two, but until then take it easy...
