Please ignore this post. This person is completely wrong; no medical schools are even close to "filling their class" at this point. They may have given a large first wave of acceptances, but they are no where near done. If you check this person's recent posts, he/she has posted on multiple threads saying that "acceptances are slowing down because the school is beginning to fill their class." No medical school has their class "filled" until May 15th, and most, if not all, are not filled until well after that. Up until then, some people may be holding acceptances at 8 schools and, once they make their choice, 7 other spots open up. In addition, some schools release all of their acceptances on the same day later in the cycle (ie. Hopkins, Harvard, Cornell, etc.). Therefore, many people who might be "overqualified" for a school may, perhaps, be holding an acceptance but are likely to withdraw if they are accepted to one of these other schools.
All schools will be handing out a bulk of acceptances through May 15th, and will continue to hand them out afterwards until every class is full. Often the acceptances come simultaneously with period of silence in the middle. There are people in the class here that received a waitlist call up until a few days before orientation in August, and similar instances occur at every medical school. No class is full until classes begin in August.
