How long did it take to get a response following an interview?

How long did it take to get a response following an interview?

I was told around 4 weeks usually. but with the holidays coming up, it's probably going to be around 6 weeks.

Just got a wait list email

 

[meijihellopanda]

Just got a wait list email

same, interviewed 11/25, really sucks bc i thought my interview went well and I love the school

 

[Panksy]

Waitlist email as well, interviewed ~2 weeks ago.

 

[whowantme2021]

WL as well :/ (finally made an account here to share) Interviewed on 11/20

 

[yahwehd]

Just got a wait list email

I was also wait-listed. Interviewed on 11/25. LM 69. OOS

 

[DenseDumpling]

Waitlisted email also, interviewed just 2 days ago. I’m not sure what to make of it 😂.

 

[7thAndLASTPoopoftheDay]

Waitlisted. Absolutely crushed. This was my only II and my chances aren't looking good for another one at this point in the second half of my second cycle. Interviewed 12/9 and I gave it everything I had.
3.7 / 520 / OOS / Strong mission fit

How do people get pulled off the waitlist here? Is it done by priority or random?

Same! Interviewed this week so very confused... Definitely crushed because I definitely fit the mission and felt like the interview went well...

 

[MissingCalifornia]

Waitlisted at my only interview of the cycle. Interviewed 12/11, so I wasn’t expecting such a quick turnaround. Thought the interview went well, but it is what it is.

 

[withinhistory]

+1 WL. Disappointed, but not surprised.

 

[ouisoo]

Just got a wait list email

+1 placed on the alternate list as well. interviewed 12/7, OOS.
Has anyone gotten an acceptance this week??

 

[LilSatxrn]

Waitlisted as well, interviewed 12/2.

 

[drhouse9]

Dumb question: is a waitlist the same as alternate list? If so, waitlisted also this morning. Interviewed 12/7

 

[stressedpremed123]

join the WL club guys, it may be tough but we're all here for each other! And don't be too worried (easier said than done), the movement for WL at wayne is one of the best!

 

[Med_For_Life]

If you're waitlisted, just know that most people who interview here are

 

[Neurotic_Ischemia]

Interviewed 12/9 and already put of waitlist. Only interview so far. How many people tend to get pulled off the waitlist?

 

[ihatephysics123]

Wow, nothing for me yet, interviewed 12/2... probably a WL then 🙁 or even worse, an R

 

[Med_For_Life]

Wow, nothing for me yet, interviewed 12/2... probably a WL then 🙁

or an acceptance

 

[Neurotic_Ischemia]

Also, do anyone get rejected post interview without a waitlist or do most people just get put on a waitlist and then rejected or accepted?

 

[stressedpremed123]

Wow, nothing for me yet, interviewed 12/2... probably a WL then 🙁 or even worse, an R

It could also be an A! Last month, they had a bunch of WL waves, and then WL and As on the Monday following. I got a WL that monday rip but many people also got As 🙂

Thank you. I needed that..

 

[PreMedPerson1020]

Wow, a lot of WLs only a few days after interview...Does anyone know whether that is typically a good sign if you're waitlisted that quickly, a bad sign, or most likely just how the timing for review works out?

Most likely they met yesterday. Since the latest interview was Wednesday, they probably just discussed those files as well. No idea on if the turnaround time matters :/

 

[PaladinX]

Dang, I interviewed earlier this week and now I'm worried 😭

 

[terminus98]

waitlisted, interviewed a couple weeks ago. LM 71.5 OOS

 

[parquetshorts]

Interviewed 12/4, waitlist email today. Seems like they're putting most on the alternate list for now based on the fact that no-one here is reporting an A today lol

 

[DenseDumpling]

Yea I really love the school and the mission. I was told 6 weeks so I wasn’t expecting a two day turnaround for the decision.

 

[stressedpremed123]

I think they'll release As on Monday/Sunday night, they did that last month as well!

 

[quincy99]

Waitlist as well

 

[kingnabeel12]

waitlisted
Interview on 12/14, Student Interview on 12/16
Stats: 3.71 cGPA, 3.67 sGPA, 515 MCAT
IS (from Wayne County)

 

[marssbarss]

This is just speculation lol but I feel like they just WL a bunch of people to get more time to make a decision post II lol otherwise I feel like we would see post II rejections

 

[deleted1055354]

But why not wait the 6weeks they originally give us?

 

[futuremdpls]

Yeah they usually do WLs in a batch, Rs in a batch, and As in a batch on separate days, so I don't think WLs are a holding place. On my interview day they said they were going to reject a lot more people than usual up front this year anyways, so if you got a WL that definitely doesn't mean they're thinking about rejecting you!

True aha that was a very fast turn around... hang in there WLers, there is still going to be lots of WL movement in the future

when do you think they'll start rolling out the R's?

 

[DenseDumpling]

I interviewed on Wednesday and never got the post-interview survey. Where do I find it?

it's on the portal, if i remember correctly it is under interview tab

 

[meseeksc137]

Waitlisted. Interviewed 12/2. Kinda expected, but sucks nonetheless. Did anyone get an acceptance? Looks like they were all waitlist decisions today

 

[sillining]

Guys. I interviewed 11/2 and still have had no response. What the heck😂

 

[justletmein22]

Interviewed on Wednesday 12/16, WL today lol. That cant be a good sign 🙃

 

[sadppremed]

I wouldn't view it negatively! Most of the people being waitlisted are going to be accepted eventually (they need more time to review). they're also being more direct with the R's this cycle so a WL is not a bad sign 🙂

 

[soroe]

I got alternate list, 12/2 interview. This may be the dumbest question ever, but is alternate list the same as waitlst?

Yes. And We interviewed on the same day

 

[PaladinX]

Anyone finish their interview yesterday hear back yet? I interviewed monday but had one of my interviews later in the week

People keep saying this, but has anyone actually been rejected post interview yet?
