For those that got the pre-II hold, is that really a soft R for the school? How common is this at Drexel?

From what I’ve read in previous years’ threads and reddit, some people really like to believe it’s a soft R, but a good chunk have also received interviews at a later time. I think a hold is... a hold. Neither good news or bad news. If the school didn’t like you at all, they’d outright reject you. If they loved you, you would’ve gotten an II. So take it for what it’s worth and spend more valuable time focusing on other schools until notified otherwise.

This looks like a solid yield-protect to me. I'm sure you're gonna see success elsewhere!

Does anyone know if Drexel sends outright rejections eventually without a pre-II hold?

Complete 7/18, and no news at all from Drexel, so idk if that's good or bad tbh.

Did anyone get a II here? Seems like everyone is getting put on hold...even those with higher stats

I haven't received an II or a hold, but I submitted 7/9 and my status just says "Your application is ready."

Yo I got a letter in the mail from Drexel and thought it was a rejection but they just advertised me their master's programs.

 

[jat2mc]

Well initially i thought it was good that I hadn't receive any news, but after seeing that a good percentage of people haven't don't think its an indication of anything

Dude lots of people got pre-II holds today. No news is better than that in my opinion!

It's like watching your friends/family get executed right in front of you 😒

It's so scary watching people get put on hold left and right and hoping you aren't next!

Lol reminds me of Neo and his team in the Matrix as they realize Cypher is pulling their plugs one by one on the ship.

It would be nice if we could move on to them sending interviews instead of just putting people on hold...

Except some people don't get holds and get rejected outright. I'm hoping that's not me.

I believe there's a light screen but mostly

 

[sundayko]

Anyone else applying MD/PhD and having trouble submitting the additional materials?

 

[Kirby Smart]

Considering adding Drexel just cause their secondary is pretty easy but holy low-yield

Low yield =/= no yield

Damn, how do you hold a URM with a 518 MCAT?

Because getting into med school is more dependent on factors other than demographic and mcat.
