This continued review seems to be a new thing for Brodyjust got continued review, interviewed 2/13. Tired of waiting LMAO
This continued review seems to be a new thing for Brody
They might as well just say we’re all on the waitlist at this point, considering they’ve given enough offers to fill the class and they’re waiting until May 1st for people to decline their acceptance so they can reevaluate who to offer that seat to.Wondering how they will decide who to accept/waitlist basing that they sent this to everyone
My feeling exactly. Sad and dishearteningI'm so bummed y'all. How do we decide if we should start working on the primary app for next cycle if they won't even tell us if we're WL'd until May or possibly never....I know I haven't been rejected yet, but I can't help feeling like I have. RIP
Hey BioQueen, if you don't mind me asking, what's your current MCAT score? I've taken it 3 times and scored 500, 503, 507. I can't decide if I should start studying again for it. This along with volunteering hours (~200hr) are probably my weakest areas on my app.Well, my philosophy is to hope for the best but be prepared for the worst. With that being said, I’m hoping I’ll eventually get the call, but I’m also prepping to retake the MCAT to make myself more competitive for next cycle. It sucks for sure, but all we can do is stay positive.
Hey FutureDoc! So I’ve taken the MCAT once and made below 500, 499 to be exact. I took it late last year, with not enough time to retake it to apply this cycle. Considering you’ve taken it three times with consistent growth in your score, I personally wouldn’t retake, but it also depends on what schools you’re aiming for!Hey BioQueen, if you don't mind me asking, what's your current MCAT score?

I also scored 499 on the MCAT while scoring over 510 on practice exams.Hey FutureDoc! So I’ve taken the MCAT once and made below 500, 499 to be exact.

I would also like to add I was averaging 512 on my practice FLs before I took it, so if anyone else scored well below their FL average on their actual test, know you’re not alone!
Did you happen to retake? I retake it this month, and although I’m scoring well on practice tests I’m so scared I’m going to score low againI also scored 499 on the MCAT while scoring over 510 on practice exams.
Thank you for the advice! That's what I was thinking too. I'll probably hold off on taking the MCAT for a fourth time lol. Good luck on your re-test!! I'm sure you're going to absolutely crush it!!Hey FutureDoc! So I’ve taken the MCAT once and made below 500, 499 to be exact.

You’re very welcome!! And thanks so much! CARS is insane. When I feel like I do pretty well my score is awful and when I feel like I do horrendous I do well. I will never understand 😂 Keeping my fingers crossed for all of us!! 🤞🫶Thank you for the advice! That's what I was thinking too. I'll probably hold off on taking the MCAT for a fourth time lol.

- I was averaging around 505 when I took it last time. CARS was always my toughest section.
Sending good vibes! 😘
Thinking about retaking it if I don't get in this application cycle.Did you happen to retake? I retake it this month, and although I’m scoring well on practice tests I’m so scared I’m going to score low again
Thank you very much!!! Wishing you the best with your journey as well! ☺️Thinking about retaking it if I don't get in this application cycle.
You will do great don't stress. Sending positive vibes your way
Post-II rejection
Yeah so this stung even harderI’m so sorry.. did you get the still under consideration email earlier?
Yeah so this stung even harder
Thank you 🥺.I’m so sorry. If you need anyone to review anything for your next application I’m glad to help
Okay so what i've been told from someone who goes to the school is that they can see they have a certain amount of prospective students that have offers elsewhere, but they are waiting until April 30th to see who commits. After they will start making more acceptances. I'm assuming since they sent that review and sent rejections afterwards, the people who are remaining are all acceptable, which means they have/will create some ranked waitlist to pull from starting May 1st. This school has good movement according to MSAR, 40 acceptances for 75-100 on the list.Is anyone else still confused by the continued review email?
Like are they going to form a waitlist or is it just assumed that we are on the waitlist until we hear from them in May?
I’m calling it the unofficial waitlist we’re on. It doesn’t seem like anyone has received an R since that email and they have had plenty of time to narrow down their list before April 30th
Financial aid email was sent out stating official offer letters may not be released until late April-early May. I wonder how that will change the admissions timeline since I’m sure some people are waiting to see their package before committing
Nothing as wellDid anyone else get WL? I didn’t get anything
Random question- my Residency certification number expires in Oct. this year (2024)-- would I have to reapply for residency to apply for the coming cycle?
Is there still not an accepted students group chat?
+1Waitlist invitation email just now!
I guess they realized the need for a waitlist before May 1st after all... I'll take that as good news for WL movement this cycle. 🤣🙏
Got mine just now. Interviewed in Nov.Nothing as well
