Are we thinking tomorrow is the day or Wednesday?

Past years have been on the 10th or on Wednesdays. So probably Wednesday.

Are we thinking tomorrow is the day or Wednesday?

I’m guessing tomorrow. Only one year in the past 6 have been the 10th or later and most have been Tuesdays.

Whenever they release the decisions, does the update email say what your status is (A/WL/R) or do they make you log in to see?

My acceptance email this year had the subject line “carver college of medicine” and just said “The Admissions Committee has made a decision on your application.” Followed by a link to the secondary application. So no indication of what the decision was until opening the portal.

Amidst all of the stress and anxiety I want to wish everyone good luck in their med school aspirations no matter what happens tomorrow!

[kc214]

[Nvrgiveup01]

i guess tmrw is the day?

Yeah most likely tomorrow

 

[flimbo]

Yeah most likely tomorrow

Who knows, they could break new ground and release the results on Thursday or Friday.

Very true. Anything is possible

Wow I really hope not, it would just be cruel at this point

 

[TabbyTuxy]

Could still be today, though unlikely. My first time applying, decisions were uploaded around 4pm EST and then took a couple hours to be released.

Mine came at 4pm CST this year. I’d wait an hour and check again.

I'll come out and say it, this waiting game is NOT fun

This ain’t it chief

 

[CAFFEINE!]

Unpopular opinion: I'm glad that decisions weren't sent out today because I have a ton of homework to do tonight and having their decision would be a huge distraction.

 

[Nvrgiveup01]

Maybe Friday then

 

[Noc310]

Maybe Friday then

Maybe Wednesday.... Maybe Thursday.

I was telling some of my coworkers that I’m hearing back this week from an October interview and they were outraged lol

October of which application cycle? 😂

Nothing quite like the look on someone's face when you first describe the app cycle timeline to them

 

[flimbo]

It amazes me that some schools are still giving out interviews.

Gives me a bit more hope as well.

 

[norse_premed]

Today marks 6 weeks from the final pool notification so fingers crossed

 

[Kenken514]

Decisions are being loaded

 

[mvsrocks]

so many people with pet profile pics in this thread lmao 🐶🐈

 

[selah778]

Accepted! I am extremely humbled, interviewed here in the past was R'e d straightaway. This is my only acceptance after multiple cycles.

Congrats! What are your stats?

 

[TabbyTuxy]

WL, OOS LM 70. Interviewed in September, pretty low (bad) on WL.

 

[selah778]

WL, OOS LM 70. Interviewed in September.

Did they give you a rank on waitlist?

 

[Ness817]

Rejected IS LM 71

See you guys next year

 

[flimbo]

R

 

[bodynotfondofcoffee]

R as well, man this hurts

 

[Nvrgiveup01]

Just got the R. Interviewed back in October.

 

[Kenken514]

Rejection. OOS 517 3.86.
I was rejected post interview last year too

 

[selah778]

OOS No. 56 on waitlist, do I have a chance? I know that they accepted around 50 from OOS last year...

What are your stats?

 

[BJoverTrapper]

IS waitlist ranked in the high teens. With such variability in how many they pull off each year it seems like my anxiety stress dreams are here to stay for another few months

 

[DilNyethescienceguy]

R. Disappointed but not surpised given my MCAT is still significantly below the OOS median, oh well.

Congrats to all those that will get accepted today, best of luck to those on the WL, and my sympathies to all those who got the axe along with myself today - it was a pleasure sharing Tuesdays with you all!

I think you're in a good place! If I remember correctly, there was only one year where the WL didn't move into the 20's.

 

[bobaislife]

R. OOS. Congrats to everyone who was accepted!

 

[kindhuman]

OOS WL in the high 30s and i honestly have no idea what number is good or bad to be on the WL, anyone know?

 

[selah778]

Do they send out decisions at the same time? Or alphabetically ?

 

[meseeksc137]

R, OOS. Good Luck to everyone!
