I reeeeally want this ... badly. This is my way out of transcription.

It could be that people who were - notified that they got in

[ In Reply To ..]
don't come here to post, maybe?

Or maybe they're sending all the rejections first before the offers? - nm

I really hope you're right about that - anon

I'm keeping the faith until I see that letter in my inbox ... if I haven't received it yet I still have hope.
Hope, good. Anxiety and nail biting - bad. - I would rather know. LOL NM

I am going to hold that attitude as well! - East MT

I hope we both get in!
Thanks, East MT - sm

I hope we do too! Good luck. Are you still able to get into MMU? I can't, which bothers me the most ... I don't see why they would disable our log-on if we were approved for the program. :(
No I cant. My score was in the low 90s, if that helps. - East MT

I wonder if like the other poster said it is just a time out or something. I took my test Thursday afternoon.
I took mine Tuesday morning and ... - anon

...was able to get on until late this afternoon - it seems like most of us who were locked out were locked out at around the same time.

You scored higher than I did, you did really well. I find it hard to believe there were that many people that scored above you.
aww thanks! I wish there was room for everyone that truly - East MT
[ In Reply To ..]
wanted to get in!!! I want all of us to get in together :)
I agree, I think East MT is in. A solid and good score and coding - background.
[ In Reply To ..]
Also, she seems like a heck of a nice lady, based on posts I have seen.

Actually, it seems like everyone who participated in the coder testing is nice and respectful. I, like, another poster in this thread, only come on here sporadically. It gets too down and dirty for me sometimes. I only come in for "special" cause.

Anyway, it has been a pleasure to go through this experience with you all. Here is to a quick end to our agony.

that is so sweet of you! good luck to you <3 - East MT

I try to let the negatives roll off of me too but sometimes I just have to stay away from here as well. The coding opportunity seems like a light at the end of the tunnel, not sure why anyone would bash those who are taking this as a ray of hope. This seems like an exciting change and if it turns out to be a mistake all I can say is I went in with my eyes wide open and am well aware of the risks. This is a gamble I am willing to take and am not afraid of the outcome.

Good luck everyone!

Good point. - Anon

The one person who got a rejection letter didn't say WHEN they got the rejection letter, we all assumed it was today.

There were some people who scored fairly high that I have seen comment on this subject, I just assumed they would feel such exaltation they would share the news.

I am not obsessively checking my email. It is late EST, so I don't think any news will come this evening.

have not heard a thing - eyeswideopen

[ In Reply To ..]
either way, if I got in or not

I guess they just sent the one batch out this evening & the rest of us - will have to wait until tomorrow. :(

Curious how many other people can still get into MMU? - anon

[ In Reply To ..]
So far, there appears to only be one person who can still successfully access the MMU link.

Still getting in - Positive

[ In Reply To ..]
I can still get into MMU. Took the test on Sunday.
Did you score in the high 90s through 100? - anon.
[ In Reply To ..]
I can't get into MMU, I scored under 90 and I would love to take this as a clue so I can move the heck on. I am one of THOSE people.
Same here - 86 and can't get on - NM
[ In Reply To ..]
NM
See above East MT post. She scored in the 90s - and she cannot get in
[ In Reply To ..]
So it probably means absolutely nothing.

Not getting the rejection letter yet apparently means nothing either. A person who said they scored well below 80 still has not received the "thank you for applying, but no" e-mail.

Unless there are other factors coming into play here, tier level, coding experience, seniority, etc.

It all just seems so RANDOM - anon
[ In Reply To ..]
I'm a typical classic OCD Virgo ... I need everything neat and organized into a nice little *understandable* package. The randomness of this might just send me over the edge!
LOL. Oh yeah, I feel you on that one. - anon
[ In Reply To ..]
I must know everything IMMEDIATELY and if I don't I go through every possible scenario.




Not one of the Golden Children - Positive
[ In Reply To ..]
I'm in the mid range. Not the best, but not the worst either. Just stay positive. We don't know how many people took the test. Some may not even want to change careers at this point in their lives. A lot of people may not even come here to post. I can only stand so much of the negativity myself and only come here sporadically, so I wouldn't just go by what people posted here. If it's meant to be, it'll happen.
True, and I liked what you said about ... - anon
[ In Reply To ..]
... some not wanting to change careers at this point. Besides, there may be a few that turn down the offer, or change their mind about the program. I hope they decide to replace those with people who *really* want to be there. I really need this. I'm holding out hope.
Just something to think about. A high score - may not necessarily assure you
[ In Reply To ..]
a spot. Let's face it, it was a hard test. There may very well be only a handful of high scores. Teaching a group of 60 is going to be hard enough itself. They may group a certain range of scores as the pilot for this so that everyone is on an even playing field. Again, just a thought I had yesterday and nothing concrete to go on. I really hope everyone who really wants this is able to get in on the first group.
That happened to me with the post office - My score was "too high"
[ In Reply To ..]
It was a bizarre experience.

Who knows, just wish they would let us all know. It is short dang notice to set up childcare and other scheduling situations.

Just Checking Prices

I felt tremendous just to boycott this industry in my own way. ...
