What programs sending out thank yous/feedback

[roctown]

Just thought we could post some info on which places were sending out letters to us after visiting, see which ones may actually be a personalized gesture and which are going out to everyone....

I got one from UVA

 

[DrDre']

UW-Mad. Great people there!

 

[DR. JJ]

Agree with Dre, received one from UW-Mad also and they are great people. Also Mayo-Rochester, Dartmouth, UVA, and Penn State. The people I met at all of these programs were very friendly.

 

[DrDre']

Dr. JJ-
For once someone agrees with me! Still haven't gotten any Mayo love... either lost in the mail or just not their cup of tea! Glad you got one from Mad as well, that was quick!

Will call you Wednesday night.

Take care, Dre'

[WannaBMD]

Hey guys, first-time poster, long-time lurker. I was just wondering if anyone else got a letter from UCLA-Westwood. I've heard of that, but didn't know if it was true or not...

Will the answer you get change anything? Will a "yae" make you depressed and a "nay" give you warm fuzzies? I'd recommend just ranking your programs as you like them and not consider whether a program writes you a letter.

 

[Milhouse Van Houten]

i got a very very brief note from ucla that said thanks for coming and they would like to hear any comments about the interview day. very generic. three sentences, maybe.

[KluverBucy]

I wonder the same thing too. Hard to know, that's for sure.

i've gotten several "best of luck in the match" quotes...not sure what that means...

 

[ThinkFast007]

i've gotten several "best of luck in the match" quotes...not sure what that means...

i'm starting to feel that everyone says this to everyone!

but the other side of me makes me feel that they say those words implying something

something good

 

[toughlife]

i've gotten several "best of luck in the match" quotes...not sure what that means...

I got one "good luck to you in the match" which means "there's no way in hell we are ranking you". Oh well, moving on.
