I suppose that's because next year's cycle and secondaries has started already

I wonder if this is a subtle sign that WL movement is also over and for us to focus on reapplying

Sorry for not updating y’all, but my portal started working fine a few days after the incident. However, I don’t believe there will be much more waitlist movement in the next few weeks so I might be calling it quits.

Anyone by chance called lately to ask if it’s still moving at all?

NOPE. I've been to afraid to call due to the fear of appearing too desperate.

I just called. The lady said there has still been some movement. Fingers crossed guys!

Well I guess thats the end of the road for me. Pulling the plug on VCU. Fortunately, I was accepted into another medical school, but VCU was definitely the dream. Good luck to everyone here! You all made this application cycle bearable.

Hard to say. Probably around 7-10:1 given 600ish interviewed. Since today was the first day of orientation, maybe current M1s can share stats on this past cycle?

Last year around 3k of the 9/10k people got a secondary and out of those people only close to 600 got an II

So just FYI, you're on the wrong thread to be talking about II at this point. You should post this on the 2018-2019 vcu page

When were you complete at VCU?

Late July.

 

[SPF70]

anyone who interviewed here last year and was accepted have advice for the interview? thanks

Did anyone from this thread ( @Stumpyman ?) end up attending Pre-Matric and would be able to give some info about it? Do you think it was beneficial, and how rigorous was it?
