yea 150. Worth noting though that last year’s facebook group topped out at 170. So perhaps it’s also possible that some people chose a different school but never left the facebook group? Sincerely hoping something will happen tomorrow...
Is it possible M1/M2s join the group to help answer questions?
yea probably but we just don’t know and it sucks. Trying to maintain positive vibes at least until June 1st.
Hi guys, sorry for the late response. It was an acceptance letter! I have until Wednesday to give a response.
Congratulations!
Congrats and thanks for the update!!!
Yeah I mean I get your point but I also feel that using the Facebook group isn't really a good indicator (even though I still can't help but checking lol) I feel like the people that don't have facebook might be very few and some might be admins and older students / faculty as others said.
Thank you! I’ll try to let you all know more updated info if I get any regarding current class size, etc.
I feel as if I came off as a debbie downer with that post, my apologiesYeah I mean I get your point but I also feel that using the Facebook group isn't really a good indicator (even though I still can't help but checking lol) I feel like the people that don't have facebook might be very few and some might be admins and older students / faculty as others said.
Also, I hope that they do send some acceptances in bulk because I feel that alot of us just got placed on the waitlist right after the interview and they do prob need to fill up that class soon. Anyways this is just me being hopeful and praying for all of us at this point
I hope we all receive an acceptance and become classmates! I'm constantly checking SDN and the FB group member count and it's driving me crazy lolIf you don't mind checking, is the "Choose Your Medical School (CYMS) tool" now available on your AMCAS portal?
It is not, I assume that maybe I have to respond to the letter by email in the way they asked first before any official digital things are sent out.
Just checked, nothing here and also in the NOLA area 🙃
There are current students in the group
Nope, nothing on my end. Been eagerly checking the USPS email
yea I’m just gonna hope things are delayed due to weather
Would you mind sharing stats?
When was your acceptance letter dated?
Did you ever get the chance to call?
Just saw that too and immediately felt like I was going to puke... it’s at 138 now (not counting admins)
RIP the dream.
Hugs all aroundOuch. Thanks for the update.I called and they said that they had their last committee meeting and the waitlist is currently ranked and they are pulling from there. She told me don’t bother sending updates at this point
Sending good vibes to y'all. It's out of our hands now.I called and they said that they had their last committee meeting and the waitlist is currently ranked and they are pulling from there. She told me don’t bother sending updates at this point
Do we think the class is full at this point?
Not full , but I'd believe somewhere in the single digit acceptances are going to be sent out from now to July.
I'd contact Mrs. Sonya first, seeing as she's been the primary contact for admissions this cycle. At the very least she should be able to point you in the right direction.
Same lmao I look at these jobs, volunteering, and MCAT prep and think dang were back at again
Sorry to quote/reply to this again, but I wanted to let you know that I spoke with Mrs. Sonya (so friendly!) earlier today, and she gave me some great advice on how to strengthen my application for the next cycle(s). We did not speak about the waitlist or how admissions for this cycle were going. I'd highly recommend reaching out to her to see if she can identify your weaker areas.
Definitely will do that so I can work on it these upcoming months. Did you ask her about any admission information (waitlist or CTE) and she shut you down or just didn't ask?
I didn't ask about admissions info for the current cycle. I had planned on asking before I made the call, but there didn't seem to be an appropriate time to bring it up during our conversation.
Totally understandable. Thank you
Called and was told they don't expect a lot of movement to happen in June/July
well damn, but I kind of figured that. Last year with covid it was probably messed up with the Facebook group having 176, but for the class of 2023 the Facebook group had 146. At least we can move on nowReapplication gang! See y'all in the 2021-2022 thread 🤡
Did she say you have weak ECs? I called but didn't get a call back. I did call at 3:45 so it was a little late. Anyway I definitely need that MCAT score. See you in the next forum!
Jesus Christ I did not expect this. They deserve whatever is coming to them including the chancellor. They judge our character as not good enough during interviews but maybe they should look inside their own group.Yall see this?
5 more women report harassment at LSU med school in Shreveport, want Board of Supervisor action
Five more women have come forward to speak out about unresolved sexual harassment complaints at the LSU medical school in Shreveport, offering accounts that are strikingly similar to allegations madewww.google.com
Congratulations!!!!
Congratulations!
Yea 503 here (cars sucks). In the previous years, the mcat average has been lower. Seeing the numbers go up is very depressing. NOLA's numbers have went up a little too.
