Is anyone else on the hold list getting anxious as the PTE deadline approaches? I'm nervous that PTE at another school will affect our chances even if Quillen is our top choice. I'm inclined to think that a school will want to accept applicants without other acceptances due to the higher likelihood of them choosing to go there. Hopefully that isn't the case but it's a thought.
Oh, I don't know. I think the door might swing both ways on this point. Perhaps,Quillen may want to lock someone down who is in demand. ( For me, preference for no acceptances and waitlist only candidates at the AAMC might be good since I fir that profile).. Having said all of that and from my research, reading here, and communicating with Quillen and above all else, Quillen seems to be very, very, very interested in the right fit for Quillen's culture and mission. I'd reckon that "fit" is the driver of its selections above all else. Does Quillen believe that the candidate will thrive in and bring value to the culture and otherwise further the mission. If so, that would seem to me to be what will be dispositive. Then again, I might be completely off base.
