2018-2019 SUNY - Downstate

[Pnomnomnom]

Yeah it’s definitely different than all previous years when there’s been many postings in June and July! I even called and they said they accept until orientation and didn’t mention anything about this year having less movement

This is an emotional rollercoaster

I feel that they might have over accepted people so that's why they haven't been pulling from the list.

My last sliver of hope

I’ve been fairly active on this board so thought I’d update that I withdrew from the waitlist due to a CTE deadline. Hopefully the field is getting pretty narrow at this point and that someone can get in! I wouldn’t be surprised if downstate had some surprise last minute movement. Good luck everyone!! Downstate is awesome—wish I could have stuck it out with all of you. It’s been fun speculating with you all for the past few months

I wish they could accept someone. It’s been crickets since June

Hi I'm a current MD applicant and interviewing at SUNY downstate in March I'm from Chicago and don't know much about the school but I'm excited to have an interview. I'd love to hear a current student's perspective/experience, so if anyone's willing to PM me I'd really appreciate that!!
