Not sure what exactly is meant by bottom, but one would presume that this year’s list was made longer than last year’s if that’s true.

story of my life over here lol. I am top third at another school and they have had almost no movement eitherSorry, meant bottom third. A student last year mentioned that if you're in the top third, then you usually clear. But this year could be different in terms of movement.
this is what cinci put out earlier. also cinci is a much more competitive school so I would expect them to pull from BSOM if people are accepted at both
"We hope this email finds you well and we are grateful for your continued interest in Cincinnati Medicine!
We wanted to reach-out to you to give you an update on your candidacy and let you know about a few major reasons that this application cycle has been a bit different than those of prior years. Specifically, due to the changes made to the AAMC traffic protocols and the Choose Your Medical School (CYMS) tool, medical schools across the country are being challenged in regard to monitoring applicant decisions. We find ourselves blindly navigating a process that we had previously been intimately involved in. Moreover, we have found that many applicants are confused without explicit guidance from the medical schools. Together, this has resulted in a much slower process of attrition and a significantly delay in offers from our Alternate List.
Typically, by this time in the summer we would have made a few offers from our Alternate List. However, that is not the case for this year. Due to the challenges with the new traffic protocols and the CYMS tool, there is a serious lag in processes and our timeline has been pushed back.
We want you to know that we still hope to have the opportunity to make offers from our alternate list, but due to the reasons mentioned above, we don’t expect to do this for a few more weeks.
We sincerely appreciate your patience as a part of this process and we empathize with you as you navigate this newly complicated process. We value your time and understand that tolerating the unknown is difficult. Please know that we are eager to finalize our class and we will be in touch (first via phone and then via email) should we find ourselves in a place to make an offer of acceptance to you in the near future."
Seven weeks after May 1, they email us this. Not only that, we have to wait a few more weeks. I'm sorry but if I'm expected to get my financial aid, lease, etc all in order supposedly about a month before classes start then I will rip my hair out. The new cycle started three whole weeks ago. What about all of the people who already spend thousands on the next cycle only to be told this? I am so disheartened and frustrated. I hope Cinci learns from this one, and I am still very hopeful to hear from them.
yo, where my middle third at? Anyone hear yet?
dont tempt the admissions committeeI wonder if this wait could get any more frustrating.
Just got accepted this morning. 2nd tier! I've been lurking here for a while and made an account just to let you guys know they've moved on to the second tier. Thanks for all of the information you've been gathering here. I hope all of you can still get in somewhere.
called the office, they are less than 10% done with the second tier, still not giving out where you are in the tier but at least the list is moving.
Have they indicated that at some point they will be telling us our positions?called the office, they are less than 10% done with the second tier, still not giving out where you are in the tier but at least the list is moving.

I don't think they will be sharing this info. No compelling reason for them to so, and it doesn't really change anything for waitlisted students.Curious about this too. Wonder when they would give a firm yes or no
"Sorry, the number you have called was busy. Please try again later." was what I got todayCalled the office to get some info and nobody answered... Anyone else have this problem today?
removed as in accepted or dropped their WL spot?I called earlier, they said one person was removed off the waitlist today.
Good question... in the context I asked it in, I'm guessing accepted. But I should totally asked them for specifics, sorry!removed as in accepted or dropped their WL spot?
