I wish I could share about a great cycle as some of you have been able to enjoy. My cycle has been horribly slow. It started off well with my first invite to my top choice in September but by October I was saddened by rejection from the very same school. I was happy again when I got an invite and another interview by November. I thought I would hear something by the end of the year... well, January is almost over and I recently found out they cancelled the meeting this week so the next committee meeting is in February. So I am not even on hold or wait-list, I'm just post interview and anxiously waiting. I thought I had a great chance at one of the DO schools I applied to but I do not even know if they have seen my application yet. They do not interview so once they look over my application and they make a decision I will hear from them. Its been over 5 months and I have seen many people get accepted and others get wait-listed at this school, but I have not heard a single word, except when they are kindly replying to my emails.
This has been such a slow, slow, slow process
I still have hope at a few schools:
1 MD waiting for decision
1 DO waiting for decision
1 MD officially on pre-interview hold
6 MD waiting to see if I get an interview or rejection
2 DO waiting to see if I get an interview or rejection
The rest were rejections.
I expect I will know if I will be getting any more interviews by the end of the month.
