Members don't see this ad.

looks like I'm not the only one who got dumped by email this morning!!

Oh well, they do get 13,000 applicants...

 

[PanicAttack]

Rejected, been on hold since August.

 

[Priya Q Pied]

Rejection. No interview. I don't know when exactly I went on hold, but I submitted my app on Aug 3.

(FYI: 30 // 3.5 cum // 3.2 sci)

I have had zero interview invitations thus far.

I'm sad.

 

[hh17]

Sorry to all those who got rejected. I hope you get interviews and acceptances at other places. Don't get discouraged!

So these rejections are all pre-interview, right?

 

[amakhosidlo]

Man, at least you guys have all heard something.
Hold since mid-July. No invite, no rejection, no nothin'....😕

[MedPunk]

Also rejected. This club is getting pretty big.

 

[TakeMe]

Seems like a lot of students with big MCAT scores are being rejected?! I wonder why I haven't. Must not have gotten to my pile. haha

 

[applying2010]

Are you guys receiving emails updating your status or are you checking the website? My status hasn't changed since July.

[not so calm now]

Interviewed Mid-Sep, still haven't heard anything. Anyone else in this position?

 

[yaledoc]

Rejected as well. Let's see by numbers I had about a 1% chance of getting in, like 8% chance of getting an interview haha. Oh well. I was complete in early july and put on hold.

 

[Omar Gooding]

Rejection here too. Frankly, I'm relieved!

 

[Raindrop423]

Another rejection. (Via email.) I can't even summon any energy for sarcasm.

[medmannamdem]

I'll be making just a wee bit more room for some other applicant...🙂

 

[willington76]

Add me to the rejection bandwagon

 

[JustDance]

[Bryson17]

Wow, I think I survived a storm. Still on hold...

 

[BlueElmo]

Me too, I live to see another day.

 

[dingyibvs]

Me too, I live to see another day.

[hplc lova]

accepted! interviewed on 09/11

 

[viscous]

I have been put on pre-interview hold at this school. Anyone knows which person to address and send my LOI to? Please PM me. Will be appreciated.

 

[mrmacey]

i seem to have survived that rejection storm too

been on hold since...july...9. i've checked my email more times in the last 3 months than the last 2 years.
have people on hold this long gotten interviews? is it worth it to try and call in?

I would think yes, since interviews usually go into March or so, right? And the deadline is way way before this..

 

[mrmacey]

yeah, you're right. i guess it's just hard to sit and wait...sigh.

I know, I'm waiting too 🙁

 

[JediZero]

Man... sounds like they opened a machine gun on their file cabinet. Sorry to hear about all the rejections.

For now, I'm not among the dead here, but we'll see if that lasts. I just interviewed on Friday and man, do I love this place. Wish I'd gotten more of a chance to chat with students, though... did anyone who interviewed on another day or stayed with a student host or something get a feel for how the students liked it? Or what the community was like? We just had one or two students wander in for the free lunch...

 

[Depumcrc]

I interviewed last thursday, and for my interview we had a solid 40 minute Q and A with 4 med students during out lunch.. One student from each year.. They were very helpful.. If you want specifics PM me

 

[stayclassy]

waitlisted... i made it through the rejection stage LOL

 

[not so calm now]

Waitlist! (Actually the slightly classier "pleased to inform you have been selected as an alternate" status) Lol.
