Default **The Official Waiting list UCSF thread**


SDN Members don't see this ad. (About Ads)
Hey, this thread will help us to inform how the waiting list is moving for the next couple of months.

If you want privacy then don't give the exact number, approximate your number.

Mine is 5<x<10

Good luck to all of us. We are all working so hard!!!!

I'm #24 on the waiting list. Chances don't look very good for me. Should I even bother taking the required English classes?

Congrats. Did you receive some type of prerequisite evaluation telling you whether you've taken all the required classes or not?

Hi!

Friday was the final day for those accepted during the most recent round of offers to make their deposit. If some spots have opened up, we should be getting calls today. Right?

I started a waitlist thread in the school-specific forum, but this works too, lol. Btw I started as #42 and got bumped to #39. Things aren't looking too good! :/

UCSF sent out an email today telling individuals holding multiple seats to send them their final decision. They gave a deadline of April 17th. Hopefully many of you will be hearing back after that.

Hey nboogie, thanx for the update! You know how anxious we are. Quick question about the email they sent you, was it in the morning or in the afternoon? Just want to know if more people are dropping real soon. We got the update email around 7:00pm EST.

Hey, did anybody get an update email today? I checked and the original email said that today would be one of the updates, but I haven't received an email yet.

Default Current odds on my position?

I am currently holding a spot in the low 20's as of May 1, 2012 on the wait list. Has anyone ever heard of someone in the 20's on the wait list this late in the year of actually making it into UCSF Dent School?

So far, I've gone down about 10 spots per month, but apparently after April, the rate tends to decrease because people have more-or-less settled where they're going for school. So, I guess the odds are a lot lower from now on.
