Not at all! I had a low undergrad GPA due to a slow start I guess (3.15, but 4.0 semesters my last 2 years). I have 4.0 graduate GPA, 22AA (22 everything else except bio with 24), biochemistry supplemental instructor, p. gingivalis research, and now doing some research on ketogenic diets.
I never expected the call so this is a surprise! Good luck!!!! Let me know if you have any more questions!

Thanks! Crossing my fingers for you!!! Keep me posted!

The wait is taking FOREVER!!! Has anyone heard back from Columbia yet? Does anyone know how many people are on the waiting list?

I got an e-mail couple of days ago asking to confirm my interest in school in case a spot opens up.

Same here! Wonder how many people remain in the waitlist after that email?

Hi Everyone,
For those of you who were accepted, would you say a 21 in RC would be disadvantageous to me? I see that it is about 77 percentile(only reason I ask). I got 21+ in all the other sections. My GPA is in the 3.8-4.0 range. Based solely on numbers, would you say I am in good shape to at least get an interview?

Yes, sorry, I meant based on those numbers you will most likely be fine

Thank you both! Really? They don't see your percentile? Didn't know that...Learn something everyday.
