I was wondering if anyone knew what the threshold was to pass?
Does anyone know if the waitlist will be tiered at any point? And if not does that indicate even slimmer chances than past years of getting of the waitlist?

What do you guys think about the on campus housing option? I think they offer a 2 bedroom apartment 1 bath and 1 kitchen for 880/month. I'm just thinking about living with non-medical students to broaden my horizons a little bit. Could current students chime in on this?
When does waitlist movement typically begin?
The director of admissions has already been contacting a few students and discussing their interest in Penn - which may later translate into an offer of admissions. It appears that the waitlist movement will not be very significant at all.
Do any Penn med students get housing in the West Philly apts.? Like Axis, Chestnut Hall, Hamilton Court, Radian, etc.?

And congrats! We are all getting the new ipads in the fall engraved with the med school logo and all!
That's awesome! So are the iPads ours to own, or are they technically property of the school?
Definitely ours to own!!
Will everything (i.e powerpoints, lectures, etc...) be on the ipads? I was also wondering if there would be a possibility to print out the course materials if we have a personal preference for hard copies?

I think the class materials will all be on ipad. As I understand it they are currently just binders full of printed out notes at the moment. Part of the reason they converted is to supposedly save on some of those printing costs. I'd imagine there must be a way to print them out yourselves.
Anybody live in The Chatham? Kinda old bldg but it's in a nice area.
Thanks for the info, and congrats on your MD!

Just out of curiosity, are all of your exams multiple choice?
The course that first years just finished also had an individual written portion.
