Nah... you think that. Then you get the R. The R turns out to feel much worse.
Sending *hugs*

Idk, last year, after being waitlisted on 3 schools for so long. I'd rather have had them tell me no sooner then just string me along. Otherwise, I could've planned my gap year better and prepared more

 

[sadpremed121]

Placed on hold with high stats. Honestly would’ve preferred a flat out R lol.

I'm sure you can contact them and ask to be flat-out rejected if it will make you feel better lol

 

[deleted688779]

Put on hold. Sent an ITA too

 

[RJ McReady]

Hold here

 

[Engrailed]

Hold here

Complete date?

 

[ah5tt4y]

Put on hold, complete late July. Tbh even if I never get an II, a hold from NYU is still pretty flattering :') let's look at the glass half full y'all!

 

[Bil_Wi_theScience_Fi]

+n for on hold.

 

[licensed to ill]

+1 on hold, I'll take this to at least this mean I "passed" the ca$per

 

[themightychondrion]

+1 hold with stats preeeetty below their median so not sure what the deal is lmao

Alright, this was good prep for the Pitt death wave later this week. NYU was polite and gave us all a hold. Y’all ready to get a absolutely wrecked by Pitt?

Disclaimer: I am OMW to Pitt right now, just here for support (support NYU wave of gold with humor).

Clarify please, what's happening with Pitt this week?

 

[tessellations]

Clarify please, what's happening with Pitt this week?

Last year around this time Pitt sent a very large wave of rejections.

 

[907914]

Clarify please, what's happening with Pitt this week?

98 reported SDN rejections which likely mean upwards if a thousand real rejections. Hold wave = polite, R wave = well ****, mate.

 

[RJ McReady]

Complete date?

Early July

 

[~Uncle Iroh~]

Do you happen to remember the latest dates available for interviews

So I actually received my II at the end of August, at that time the last available date was Oct 15th.
Maybe someone who scheduled their interview more recently can update us?

 

[proudofmykids]

Maybe NYU's free tuition policy is making them a lot more choosy in who they want to interview, especially because their yield is going to be so high. Purely conjecture, but I think we all have a shot at getting out of the pre II hold.

Confused, wouldn’t a high yield lead to lower likelihood to escaping hold status to II?

 

[deleted994247]

Any lurkers don’t hesitate to post that you received the hold as well. More data points are always welcomed

Haha +1. I do it for the community.

 

[710118]

I bet they are interviewing less people this year. No way so many competitive people got holds if they interview 1100 people.

 

[captainsamosa69]

Haha +1. I do it for the community.

+1, love being a data point

 

[vomitcom]

Wow....this is insanity...

 

[907914]

Wow....this is insanity...

No, this is Patrick.

 

[conclabv]

+1 hold also

 

[Shadowkeep]

They are most likely choosing to focus on the "superstar" candidates and putting the average to above average applicants on hold. My guess is that they'll pull applicants from the hold group to fill out the rest of their class.

I have an II and I am most definitely NOT a superstar lol

I'm sure it's just a matter of every school has a different "ideal" medical student they are looking for. I've already gotten some rejections from places that stat-wise I thought were a much better fit for me than NYU. It's all a ****show from our perspective but everybody is lookin for something different

“I am become death, destroyer of worlds”

You are he who the Bhagavad Gita praises

 

[I<3PopeyesFriedChicken]

LM 80+, also received the hold. Fingers crossed we get some II movement on the hold list! Best of luck to everyone.

 

[deleted987519]

Placed on hold. We don't need thoughts and prayers. We need reform.

 

[Kamill]

I wonder what their average MCAT score would be after this cycle

 

[kkweens]

[claywalker20]

[CaptainPoopyPants]

Received this e-mail from NYU today.
"Though we are unable to offer you an interview at this time, please rest assured that we will continue to review your application throughout the remainder of the interview season. "

Soft R lol. Secondary complete 8/1.

Not a soft R at all. The fact that they are legit rejecting people tells me they are comfortable doing so. If they wanted to reject us they would have. Something is going to happen with these holds in a few weeks to months. I feel it in my tentacles.
