I remember reading somewhere that the school is also required to report the acceptance to AAMC so could just be a delay with thatPeople who got off the waitlist: on the cyms tool, were you guys able to PTE albany? Mine still says alternate listed for some reason

hahaha I'm sure it'll get sorted out. congrats on getting in!!I hope that’s the case bc I have to PTE within 72 hrs of acceptance and it’s been 48 😂
I was thinking the same thing…so I emailed admissions about it and will keep you and anyone wondering postedThis might be a dumb question lmao, but if we have a MacBook, do we really have to buy a separate windows laptop?
Wishing everyone here the best of luck this week! Hope people here are able to get off the waitlist 🙂

In the second look day, the students said they don't do that anymore. Seems like they used to have a certain application requiring Windows that they no longer use. so you can keep the MacBook. they also recommended not really buying anything until we receive more info from the schoolThis might be a dumb question lmao, but if we have a MacBook, do we really have to buy a separate windows laptop?

Mind sharing stats?just got an A
I kinda feel hopeless in being able to get off the waitlist for this school….looking through past threads it seem like majority of movement happens first two weeks of may. Really sad at the moment 🙁

Hang in there bud, the struggle is real. For what it's worth, people got off the WL in late June last cycle, so it ain't over yet.I kinda feel hopeless in being able to get off the waitlist for this school….looking through past threads it seem like majority of movement happens first two weeks of may.

Just declined my spot off the AL. Hope it goes to one of you!!! Good luck 🙂
There doesn’t seem to be a lot of movement for a school that says 90% of their matriculating class comes off of the WL

ACCEPTED TODAY - I cannot express enough gratitude to everyone who posts on here - thank you for sharing information and support. I really thought this wouldn’t happen and I know there are so many of you who will see this post with a sinking gut feeling (one I have had many times). I hope your day comes very soon, and until then try to be kind to yourself, I wish I had been better at that.
They’ve been pulling a lot of people off the AL list prior to May.There doesn’t seem to be a lot of movement for a school that says 90% of their matriculating class comes off of the WL

To those accepted (in groupme or FB groups) does it seem like the class is full? I feel like at this point I am trying to manage my expectations and shift focus to next cycle :///
Groupme has ppl actively joining and leaving so i’d say it’s still dynamicTo those accepted (in groupme or FB groups) does it seem like the class is full? I feel like at this point I am trying to manage my expectations and shift focus to next cycle :///

Current first year here - congrats to those with an A!! Welcome to AMC!
I like AMC. The curriculum is fast paced, but most school are now. You learn a lot it's easy to take for granted. We have probably covered 2/3 of First Aid. Professional opportunities are numerous, but you have to be proactive. Classmates are great. We support one another. Ask me anything if you want.
Hope to see some of you in the fall!

My understanding when I spoke to them last week was it would be the first week of August when classes commence.I just called admissions, they said that they don’t send out rejections from the AL until the class is completely full and she didn’t have a time frame for when that would be. Not sure if everyone already knew this but sounds like it could be a bit still
Yeaaaaa I tried to ask for the date that it happened last year and she said she didn’t know and had no idea for timeframe lolMy understanding when I spoke to them last week was it would be the first week of August when classes commence.

soooo do y'all think the class is full? 😭
I have resigned to believing that any waitlist I am on is a soon to be rejection and I should move on with and plan my life accordingly. Essentially, I gave up hope as a way of feeling better and less anxious.soooo do y'all think the class is full? 😭

A girl I know who graduated from AMC lat year told me she didn’t get her A until June. I am staying somewhat optimistic.
I heard that class is 50% full only but not sure how accurate it is. Last year admissions went into July (check last year thread)
Where'd you hear that number from?I heard that class is 50% full only but not sure how accurate it is. Last year admissions went into July (check last year thread)
Big if true, but I find it hard to believe. I encourage all of you guys to prep for a reapp or gap year if you have no other acceptances. And please don’t forget to take care of yourselves throughout this grueling process, we all have what it takes to be physicians, don’t let an R ruin your spirit!I heard that class is 50% full only but not sure how accurate it is.
