Hope this helps
whelp. so far its looking like >3.7 >33 Canadian rejection 🙁
going through last year's thread shows that some people get small pooled later even with an early completion date. so don't give up hope! 🙂
I am a reapplicant and I got smalled pool by RF last year. I applied much later last year and got small pool in mid November and never got an II. What the thread taught me last year is that small pooled is technically a good thing. The pool isn't very small and no one is going to be able to tell you any statistics on it. Just accept it as a very small step forward and get ready to wait it out.
i got complete email 7/28...no small pool email yet..

Well I am happy to know I am not the only one waiting with a later complete date. We can wait in agony together! 😀
+4
judging from previous years' threads, that's a mystery yet solved
Complete the same day and haven't heard anything either. I thought this was one of the lower stat md schools I'd have a good shot at :/.
They can still small pool us later..right?
Submitted secondary on 7/15, application complete email on 7/29, and no small pool email here, yet.
Complete on July 7th as well. nothing yet ;(((
Contact the admissions office if you're still having issues (email or phone during business hours).
I submitted using the wrong browser, but after I contacted them and resubmitted using IE, it worked.
I was looking through last year's thread and I think they were taking about a month from completion date to small pool. We could still be waiting for a couple weeks... trying to relax until then
If I wasn't small pooled, do I even have a chance..?
I feel like standing on needles by the side of Lake Michigan (not small pool) and all you bro are joking.........speechless 🙁

I was small pooled yesterday but I was complete on July 1st. They probably have not gotten to your application yet! I am sure you will hear something soon so hang in there

same here, complete 7/1 and got the small pool email yday
Take some deep breaths. It's only August.
Last year first II went out late August, and they're small pooling on the same schedule as last year so I think they're on pace for late August IIs again.
Can someone answer my question? So if I wasn't small pooled and I was complete on 7/8, does that mean i'm not being considered anymore?
IL resident, completed secondary 7/1, and haven't heard anything yet.
I don't think that's the case. Previous years' threads show that some people who don't get small pooled initially, do get small pooled later even though they were complete earlier.
Does Rosy accept updates?
I don't know for sure, but I can't imagine they would take their entire 2015 class from the people they small-pooled within the first month of applying.
In the small pool email they said not until interview invites

Nice. rejection. never small pooled
Feel ya bro, same here and I was above their stats...
Sorry to hear that guys, I was never small pooled either and am starting to get worried I will be getting this email soon. Do you mind sharing when you were complete?
Edit: @jjtheairplane Sorry, I just saw that you already posted this.
I don't think anyone has been small pooled yet?
Edit: My bad, I thought I was in a different thread.
