Not to be the bearer of bad news, but I did some research on this interview hold dilemma and based on the 2018-2019 cycle it is not good news. I only saw about 5-6 SDN users come off the waitlist to get an interview while an uncountable number got put on the waitlist. The majority of people who recieved the interviews received them directly without being put on a wait list. I think only a couple openly admitted a pre-interview rejection so I am not sure the exact number of pre-interview rejection to pre-interview wait list applicants. Needless to say there is a chance, but the odds aren't in our favor.

Well y’all, I think after some consideration I’m going to treat this hold like a R. Better if I focus my attention on the other schools, as opposed to holding out hope to come off a list that doesn’t see much movement.
Good luck, everyone!

+1, complete 7/7 and have heard nothing!
To give you all some hope, last cycle I was put on this interview hold list, interviewed in December, waitlisted, and accepted after traffic day. Don’t give up hope, it can happen! A good amount of people in my class were accepted off the waitlist as well. It’s still super early in the cycle so don’t fret!

I got an II-waitlist today 🙂.
I was complete on July 8th.
Y’all pessimistic/statistics oriented people stay away from my happiness.

It looks like it is either II or II waitlist only so far

How did you guys approach the mission question on the secondary? I am kind of confused if they want us to talk about how we would advocate for the underserved or if they want us to describe how we exhibit the qualities they are seeking (i.e. altruism, academic excellence, etc).
For the clinical letter, can it be from my supervisor from when I worked as a patient care coordinator with a clinic?
Sorry to hear that 🙁 Did they email you, or did you have to check the portal?
I think that should count. Maybe give them a call and ask?
Just how big is this interview waitlist?

They update it every Thursday, usually.
I think no news is good news this early on in the cycle. If we were in February I'd be more concerned, but there are still people out there submitting primaries! I looked back at SDN forums last night, and some people sent in primaries and secondaries in like mid September. It's not an R until you're told it's an R!
Interview waitlist on 8/8, II today. Just wanted to confirm that it is possible to get off the waitlist.
+1 !!!!!! First II was placed on interview waitlist last week. So excited. IS LM70
