Any current students want to post a match list? Would like to see how the seniors did this year.

Thanks!

Perhaps you'd like to call 😉 😉

It seems from last year's thread 3/30-4/2 ish was when they started from what a friend waiting for a post interview response said.

seems like in January it was near what it was for the last year's thread too. So perhaps this will be case here too.

Yeah I definitely am not bold enough to call! 😀

There is this part of me that is really hoping for a faster turn out in responses!! Today wouldn't be soon enough hahah
 
Just got my MD/PhD rejection via email

🙁

I'm pretty bummed. I had acceptances elsewhere, but I really felt like I belonged at BU. Good luck to everyone else!

But wait, the title of the email says status update round 1 however I interviewed on 01/28 so I'm round 2. Was this email a mistake by any chance?
 
Do you think it could be a mistake? What about others? Has anyone else received this email?

I'm operating on the assumption it is a rejection but considering this was much earlier than expected, and that the title of the email says Update Round 1, there is some possibility it was an error. We'll see I suppose.
 
I received a previous email after my interview in late January entitled "Interview follow-up Round 2" so that's why I am assuming the decisions for those who interviewed after the first round of decisions are in Round 2.
 
mdphd72,

Sorry to hear 🙁. But at least now you have closure and still have an acceptance elsewhere. Sorry dude. I was hoping u'd get good news.

Everyone else hang in there.

Thanks guys. 🙂
I'm really kinda surprised. I thought I had my best interviews here. And they were one of 2 schools I sent a letter of interest too. But with 100 applicants per seat, what can you do?

Uhhhhh.....what??
 
If you guys don't mind me asking, who is calling? Was it your specific interviewer or Dean Witzburg?

Based on last year's thread, people get called by their specific interviewer (which is sometimes actually Dean Witzburg, coincidently). But don't be too discouraged, because interviewers aren't required to call the accepted students they interviewed. It's just an option. 😉

Dear Accepted people:
Please post the first initial of your interviewer and their specialty so that those waiting can know if their interviewer has already made their calls. For example: Dr. W, Urologist.

Thank you!

Dr. A, Trauma Surgeon

Who knows if the interviewers are making all the calls today or if they will spread it out over a few days. I really wouldn't assume that if you don't get a call that you're not getting in. Hope this helps!
