If you interviewed at MD/PhD programs, you should know that historically there are about >80 additional Peeps who WILL receive their first MD/PhD acceptance over the next 6 weeks. There is still a significant possibility that you will get into a MD/PhD program with all of their perks (and blood, toil, tears and sweat). Now, the matriculating class is just full... there are about 70+ who will withdraw to enter into a MD-only program, and about 10+ who will defer to a later year. Until people make decisions, the waitlists are going to be moving slowly. Traditionally, the weeks of April 19 to May 7 is when most of the musical chairs swaps happen. One of the future years, our community will finally see that a MD/PhD match is just not a bad idea, and reduces a lot the angst of this process.
