+1IM, final pool
+1 to the surgery WL, any other surgery folks out there?Offered waitlist, but I think I'll be declining. Congrats to those accepted; best of luck to everyone! It's been a ride
edit: applied surgery, received 'final consideration' post-II.
For the looks of it, a LOTAny information out there regarding how many people ended up waitlisted last year?
I don't think this R is a sign of underperforming, just a sign of the crazy admissions process here. The fact that you made it to the top pool is a feat, at least we can move on!!R, top pool, applied OBGYN. Not even a WL, really???
I don't think I underperformed at all...
What specialty if you don't mind me askingWithdrew from the waitlist. Hopefully this moves someone up. Good luck to those who are in the running on the waitlist. You’re all going to be great doctors!
Sorry. It was IM.What specialty if you don't mind me asking
Did you do this on the portal? I accepted the WL position but am now hoping to withdraw bc I heard back from another school and want others to be moved up.Withdrew from the waitlist.

Peds! Going to email them this week about withdrawing since I can't find a way to do it online. Wishing you all the best of luck!Do you mind sharing which specialty?
When I emailed they told me the waitlist is unrankedDoes anyone know if they'll tell you your spot on the waitlist if you call?
What does that mean? In what order would they allocate spots to waitlisted candidates when those spots open?When I emailed they told me the waitlist is unranked
It mostly means they don't want to tell us how they will choose to allocate spots to waitlisted candidates when spots open. With such a small class, they may choose an applicant off the waitlist who has a similar background/experiences/interests as the specific applicant who withdrew their acceptance in an attempt to keep the class "well balanced." As the start of classes approaches, they may offer the spot to applicants they think are most likely to accept (ie. live close by, letter of intent, etc) so they aren't scrambling and making multiple offers to fill one seat at the last minute. Or, it may just actually be ranked and they don't want to disclose that to us.What does that mean? In what order would they allocate spots to waitlisted candidates when those spots open?
I would guess end of April because that's when commit to enroll takes place.Based on last year's thread, it seems like WL movement will happen around the beginning of April. But the 2019-2020 thread shows WL movement at the end of April - does anyone have other insights about WL movement here?
Really appreciate the update. Thank you.Accepted student here
Just to offer some insight- it seems that the kids considering other schools will be waiting until after the April 30th deadline to make their decision. So I’d guess late April / may for movement
At least this year OB only had two spots. I think IM had the most spots at 14. I can’t speak to how many people applied to each track but I probably wouldn’t choose OB if you’re undecided.Which of the tracks are the least competitive?
I'm a prospective applicant who's interested in med-peds or women's health (so maybe ob? or IM + fellowship), but I haven't decided which of IM, Peds, or OB to apply to yet.
Also, are interviews given on a rolling basis, even during or after labor weekend?
Thank you. Do you know how many peds spots there were?At least this year OB only had two spots. I think IM had the most spots at 14. I can’t speak to how many people applied to each track but I probably wouldn’t choose OB if you’re undecided.
I believe there were 6 for peds. 2 each for surgery and OB/GYN, then 14 for IMThank you. Do you know how many peds spots there were?
Was wondering the same 😳Has anyone withdrawn their A yet 👀
Omg congrats! Would you mind sharing which track you applied for?I got a full tuition scholarship from another school, so I will most likely be withdrawing my WL soon.
IMOmg congrats! Would you mind sharing which track you applied for?
What specialty did you apply for?Just got an email from them asking to confirm if still interested in case a seat opens up.
IMWhat specialty did you apply for?
Were you WL and did not receive this email? Did it only go to IM or are there people on the IM WL who did not get it as well?What specialty did you apply for?
