Any more waitlist movement/Does anyone know if they're getting close to finish up filling their slots?

I gave up my spot on Wednesday, so hopefully there's more movement! Best of luck

Does anyone know if it's ok to make some classes P/F in my last semester of college before starting YSM? Would that be a problem?

FWIW my last semester of undergrad was entirely pass/fail, and it wasn't during the COVID pandemic. I can't say whether it hurt me in admissions at other places, but I was not asked about this in any of my interviews. EDIT: if you're pre-matriculation, I would just email admissions to make sure

Any news on waitlist movement for MD/PhD?

I was told their slots have been completely filled by first round of acceptances and thus more than likely will not be moving to the waitlist this year.

It was like this last cycle as well according to my tour guide so I’m not surprised. Apparently few if any turn down the MDPhD acceptance.

Does anyone know the reasons for Yale's move over the years from 9->11>13>15? Is it expected to continue to decline? A mentor of mine mentioned it might be the case it will eventually be similar rank as other ivies with a more limited clinical exposure (and how that relates to research funding/PD impressions) such as Dartmouth & Brown?

This was addressed by an anonymous student in a Second Look document. According to that student, YSM's ranking drop was a result of less funding due to small class size. Not sure if YSM administration also have a similar interpretation of their ranking.
