Does anyone on the NYMC Housing chat know if the slight fluctuation in numbers on that chat are people getting off the WL? Because it would be nice to know if people are getting off but not reporting it…

no i don't think it correlates, there is a separate accepted students page with 268 people (including a few current students) in it. seems like people are just joining the housing one slowly from that page.

Woah, 268? How many of those do you think have dropped their As but haven’t left? Because that’s a LOT for a class of 220.

judging by the WL movement from earlier in may i'd probably say quite a few people are still in the group but will be going somewhere else. it definitely is a lot!

I think it is, or maybe very close to it. I think it’s going to be a 1 in 1 out situation. Based on how many people are on that list that shleemz mentioned I doubt there will be any real “waves.”

Just wanted to give y’all a little inside scoop. So I went to Touro for undergrad and asked my Dean if he can find out anything about the NYMC WL. His exact words were:

“It seems that this year there is more than usually intense competition for the few spots that may still open up. While it is still possible, it would also be more than prudent to move ahead with your current A.”

I asked my premed advisor today a similar question and she confirmed:

“Dean (the aforementioned dean) mentioned this week that it is highly unlikely that the NYMC waitlist will move.“

Obviously it can still happen but I just wanted to share the info so that everyone can have accurate expectations.

I feel like every school this cycle has reported unusually high competition. Just the reality of med school applications in the current age. Each year is harder than the last

I would guess that that is just what NYMC told him. I don’t see how they can predict whether there will or won’t be a few people who drop their A before orientation. If the class was overfilled I doubt they would have taken anyone off the WL in the first place. I’d guess that there may be a FEW people taken off the WL between now and orientation, but that could just be me trying to find some semblance of hope so take that with a grain of salt.
 
But you're right I don't see how they can be overfilled if ppl got off the waitlist in the first place and there are already a few current students in there too for some reason. I think alot of things in this cycle including secondaries, acceptances, and waitlist movement are delayed this year. I hope we both get a chance @_CaptainKaladin, good luck to everyone!

Yup, gotta keep the faith! As we get later and later it feels like the chances are dwindling, but there definitely is still a chance…. I hope😂
 
Have any more people gotten off the waitlist? Seems like theres been basically no waitlist movement thus far 🙁
 
Called admissions today, pretty much same answer as what @LittleCoaks said. Unranked WL, can be taken off at any time, adcoms are still reviewing. She said she did not know if the class was full or not.

Yeah imma be real I’ve already moved on at this point. This cycle was brutal for every school. Minimal to no movement

Yup. Still holding out some hope but tis but a fools hope.

Totally off topic but I was wondering if there are any current NYMC students who can answer if they got drug tested at matriculation. NY is a weed legal state but I know that some schools still test for it.
 
Hey yall
Did anyone here apply in August and get accepted? I'm trying to gauge for the 2025 cycle.
If you don't mind sharing stats that would be much appreciated

Or if anyone knows the stats about late applicants for NYMC, it would also be much appreciated

I am applying with a 3.92 GPA, approx 3k hours (clinical, volunteering etc), MCAT: TBD but expecting 510
 
Would anyone mind sharing the link to the GroupMe or Facebook? I was also accepted earlier this week!
 
For recently accepted students— how long after your A did you receive the certiphi link for background check? I was accepted earlier this week and I’m still waiting for mine
 
Hi! Anyone have the group chat/Facebook group? I was accepted in Jan but haven’t received an email about it.
 
A bit late but got accepted on 7/5/24. If someone could send me the FB or GroupMe, much appreciated.
 
Just got an offer into class of 2029 under early assurance program. Gonna have to research the hell out of this haha
