I really don't understand how they pull from the waitlist if it is not ranked...does anybody know? Is it just random drawing out of a hat?
I wish they gave out more post II Rs so that we’d feel a little bit better about being WL

I really don’t understand anything about Wayne’s process, but I assume they look at stats? Truly, if they pulled from a hat, I wouldn’t even feign surprise at this point.

also confused on how their candidate deliberations go if they already know they arent accepting anyone and everyone just gets thrown on the waitlist regardless. and its not ranked .... 😵
 
random but do you guys think the tracker is updated prematurely/after the fact/depends? Bc some people get As in two days which I doubt would be on the tracker that quickly. Esp since they met last Thursday, I wonder if the tracker is completely accurate

I would bet my left arm it is not.
 
If the admissions tracker is accurate, then probably not because the number increase was so small
Yeahhh that’s what I was initially thinking, but I don’t think they increased the tracker after that Thursday meeting yet? The tracker was updated like around 2ish weeks ago
 
i honestly think they waitlisted so many people today because they're swamped and haven't been able to get through everyone

On interview day, they said they will make decisions in 4-6 weeks, but some of us heard back within a week or two. It doesnt make sense for them to waitlist everyone without reviewing files caz they could have taken more time to make some of these decisions.

Yeah I think what they do is they spread out the WL decisions and then as they review those apps u either get the A or stay on the WL (possible rejection towards the end of the cycle)
 
OKK fellow worriers when are we predicting the next A wave to be 😉 Does anyone know when the last interview day is bc I think once it ends there will be way more WL movement! Also to everyone WL today, you all are amazing and will great physicians here or anywhere!

so does anyone know the time between the last tracker acceptance update and the last batch of acceptance decisions?
 
Y'all need to remember that this SDN thread is not representative of all applicants. If there are only 4 acceptances given out on a day, the odds are that those 4 people might not be SDN users which is why this thread thinks the tracker is delayed
