IDK which one is which.
It sounds like a standard (quick) WL lol. But you know what, it doesn't matter: you're gonna be a doctor! Congratulations.
Nope I was going to send one the day I got off waitlist.
If this is your first acceptance it takes a couple of days to have the tool update, subsequent acceptances come quicker (before you even get an email/call that you are accepted). This is based on my personal experience with the service…
Any updates post interview?
Current student here. Feel free to message me any questions you have!
I’m praying that this time it will work out for you! Last year they didn’t take from the waitlist so this year I think they will especially with how much movement just happened after the CYMS tool became available.
Thank you, I really hope so too!!
How long after your acceptance did you get the financial aid letter? Do they let you know of scholarships through that or when you get your acceptance?Has anyone who's been accepted sent in a financial aid negotiation letter? I received a scholarship from another MD school and I want to see if they'll match it or at least offer something but I'm scared of coming across as entitled or pushy
I’m not on waitlist but it could be them waiting for April 15th. People with more than 3 acceptances have to narrow down then so there should be movement then. Can also say April 8th is notification of scholarship so anticipate some movement then too.
Probably means they're meeting to discuss who they will accept once spots become available.
Sounds like those people found out quickly after getting waitlisted, may have been on a shortlist of sorts.
I believe it is comprised of 20% preclinical 80% clinical and then put into like quartiles? This is purely based off memory so I'm only 90% sure
Nice try admissions team 😉Can anyone who was able to go to the waitlist townhall yesterday give a brief update please?
+1Can anyone who was able to go to the waitlist townhall yesterday give a brief update please?
oh if you are not allowed to share then definitely don't! I was just asking because I am unable to get to any of those because I work during those hours.
okay no problem then! Thanks for letting us know.
I also didn't get an email to the waitlist townhall yesterday...very strange
Wait, she actually said this?? Lol
I totally forgot. It was part of 2nd look month’s events, and I was super busy yesterday. Whoops!
I think it's unfair that some individuals were not invited to the event and cannot be told through SDN the information.
I don’t think anyone can really answer that question except for admissions. However as an accepted applicant in the GroupMe and Facebook there have been quite a few people who dropped out after scholarships were distributed. It’s possible that there may be movement but we won’t know for sure until May. I was actually taken off of waitlist last month so it could be that there are people coming off and not posting. Like there were people dropping out in high volume after scholarships went out last week, so there might be some movement if not some happening already. Not everyone will post about it on SDN as it’s is risky and I think the paranoia of admissions being like hmm we let 5 people off waitlist and 3 post went up on SDN who could those folks be. I know I was paranoid and a little bit worried to post about my acceptance off waitlist which is why I waited for others to post before sharing last month.
I know it's so competitive and so hard and I do sympathize. These are just some of my thoughts on what you're discussing here.
So just to confirm, you’re talking about the second look month events?
No. Waitlist townhall. Second look is separate.
Oh, I didn’t know you could pre-register for those. So there was one yesterday?
Monday. And yes if you go back to one of those emails there’s a link for it.
Ah sounds good, just found it. Thanks! Are you allowed to say what they discussed?
