My mom still makes my doctor appts. What makes you think I have the balls to call lol?

[jjame]

Me knowing this is my only interview this cycle and my fate will be announced in the next 10 days

I agree. Let’s just be patient. I know this wait can be tough but they'll let us know when they are ready. Calling them won't make these decisions come out sooner.

 

[AmaranthMoor]

Hahaha OKAY yall, I called rn—they said by email or mail by March 15, that’s it! Seems highly unlikely that it’ll be today, or even this week, tbh. We can all rest easy.....
.......or uneasy, more likely!!

But if they really do only accept up to their class capacity at first, that puts the probability of an A on decision day at like 12% (!) So I’m mostly just hoping I make the waitlist LOL

Wait no call? Just email/mail?

 

[bones-n-sconez]

They’ve never called based on past threads.

Oh good. I like that better instead of waiting in a queue for a call.

 

[PickMeUpImScared]

Do they release all decisions at once or A’s first then WL then R’s (or some variation of this)

 

[aspiringdoctor87]

I mean Penn also never called until this year..lmao

At what time did people get the email last year? I’m nervous y’all 🙁

I think they were later in the day—around 5 EST? But I’m also losing hope for today 🙁 Would just love to stop frantically checking all of these forums

 

[PreMedStudent55555]

I’m calling it for today. I believe last year and before that it’s usually 2-3 PM.

 

[FlannelMD1]

Fingers crossed for tomorrow.

 

[somuchforhms]

Anyone else in a position where they were already happy with their A but then got this interview later in the road and are now pining after it...? It's dumb because on the one hand I really want this but on the other, I know I'll be happy/fine regardless. Still, I can't help but feel that a post II R would hurt. Odd to reconcile because it feels extremely entitled

Exact same position. Hoping they end the limbo soon.

Y’all I got a notification on my phone and I saw “Weill Cornell Medicine” and I freak but it’s just a YouTube recommended video and I have never felt so hurt in my life

I keep getting random emails from my college and I get a little scared whenever my phone makes the email notification sound now. This has been going on for two weeks but all is fine!

 

[michiganderrrr]

Y’all I got a notification on my phone and I saw “Weill Cornell Medicine” and I freak but it’s just a YouTube recommended video and I have never felt so hurt in my life

that's actually horrific. i'm so sorry that happened to you

 

[aspiringdoctor87]

I hope adcoms from Cornell see this and end our misery

Lolll I got a call from NY, NY for the first time in my life at precisely 1:01PM PST today and almost died...
The “government” was just canceling my SSN and suing me though. I’ve never felt more taunted by the universe. 😡

I'm sorry but this actually made me cry laughing. Hoping a real acceptance call is in your future

Haha I'm glad someone can enjoy that moment. Wishing the same to you!!! <3
Good luck everyone. Tomorrow *might* be the day 🙂

 

[deleted1039163]

Just called, and they said the same thing we have been hearing over and over: "You will know by March 15th".

 

[somuchforhms]

I love everyone here for feeding my neuroticism by actually making calls lmao—I wonder if adcoms are getting salt at answering the same question every day

Darn. Was hoping for today sigh. Thanks for calling!

solution: release decisions

 

[FlannelMD1]

solution: release decisions

Exactly! They can also just give an actual date instead of "by March 15th" which is a Sunday....

 

[Throwaway33130]

Even if they were going to release them today, I can’t imagine they’d actually tell anyone over the phone? But thanks for your efforts!

 

[premedD1athlete]

still blindly hoping for today against all logic

 

[SleazySalesMed]

Don't recall seeing it on the previous thread, but does anyone know if Cornell has a ranked vs. unranked WL?

 

[deleted1039163]

According to someone on last year's trend, they claimed that MSAR said that it was unranked WL.
But other people in the post said it really wasn't.
So it's not clear.
I do know that Cornell had large WL in the previous years though.

 

[FatherTime-PhD]

I’m sick of these games

Holy cow how did you get 15/21 interviews

 

[medschoolthrowaway2020]

Holy cow how did you get 15/21 interviews

Always be closing put into action

 

[SleazySalesMed]

Holy cow how did you get 15/21 interviews

I feel like I blend into the crowd on SDN. Its notable IRL, but people like U_Raptor have 30 and I've seen quite a few with more. The answer is pretty bland and expected tbh

Always be closing put into action

If I was always closing, I wouldn't have any WLs or Rs lol

 

[Thekid765]

tbh they just gonna WL basically all of us so we gonna have to wait for another few months....

 

[michiganderrrr]

lol watch them bamboozle us and do it on monday instead of friday as usual

 

[jjame]

YOU!

That's right, YOU! The adcoms are taking forever to make their decision because YOU are such a stellar candidate! Pat yourself on the fcking back, YOU WONDERFUL APPLICANT YOU! That's right, and if you reading this don't pat yourself on the back,

you will never receive a decision.

HA-HA!!! Pat yourself on the back you wonderful applicant you! HA-HA!!!!! WOO-HOO!!!

So this would be the absolute cruelest thing ever.

 

[PickMeUpImScared]

So this would be the absolute cruelest thing ever.

I think it would be even more cruel to make us wait until the end of next week

 

[hungry_african]

They usually release decisions between 2-5 PM right?

 

[musician8591]

Can you call? I'm at work right now.

 

[alwayssleeping023]

Can you call? I'm at work right now.

we're all anxious, but there's no use in calling again when they've specified several times just "before march 15th"
