Keep faith! Also did it specify what type of alternate list? Like on last year’s thread they mentioned both a “regular” and “strong” waitlist so I’m not sure what’s the difference
Thank you! I will. Actually no it just says alternate wait list and that I’ll be given priority to fill seats as they become available
I’m pretty sure that Howard considers January mcat scores. However, there was a section on the secondary which asked if you plan on taking it in January, so if you didn’t input that you planned to, I would perhaps try and send a written to accompany the scores?
Congrats! Can you give us some interview advice and share your stats if you don’t mind?
I doubt you will since you already got the acceptance tbh! I submitted my test results before I even got my interview invite. Congrats on the acceptance! Do you mind sharing interview advice/stats?
Interview advice: this one is difficult just be yourself, be calm. They didn’t ask anything too absurd. If you’ve had other one-on-one interviews then this will feel similar
Via email
I got an email that says they will send out official rejection letter beginning in March.
Have you interviewed?
Lol, just saw this. I haven’t, unfortunately
They said during the interview that they’ve essentially filled the class already. However, as is customary, a number of individuals eventually choose another program and thus they’re interviewing and accepting more people as others drop out.
Haha well good luck!! I interviewed Feb 5th and was put on the alternate waitlist.
When did you hear back?
Feb 16th, i got an email on a saturday at like 8am lol
Did you interview on the 5th?
Wow.
I interviewed with you on the 12th
Oh okay! I was just about to lose it because I thought the Feb 5 interview wasn't hearing back at the same timeI interviewed with you on the 12th
I hope so but this is what they said at the Virtual Fair last week:" it is pretty late in the interview season. Chances are slimmer by the day! Pretty much, if you dont hear anything by the end of this month, it may be safe to say you didnt make the cut."
Dang. Harsh but likely true
FML. I guess I just need to accept it. Thanks for the reply though.
It seems that way may we Rest In Peace.
I'm so glad to hear this. When did you interview? Was it after the Virtual Fair? because I got the info from that event.
I called them today and they said they are still offering a handful of interviews. Not many though. Hopefully we are all part of that handful. Sending luck and positivity to all of you that are still waiting.
That's reassuring!! Thankss for the Luck!!I called them today and they said they are still offering a handful of interviews. Not many though. Hopefully we are all part of that handful. Sending luck and positivity to all of you that are still waiting.
No, unfortunately they didn't say when. She said like they were waiting for more people to decline acceptance before they send out more invitations. Have you guys sent in letters of interest/update? I'm planning on sending one. Idk if it will help though.
Called and they told me to keep checking my email. I don’t know what that means haha
