YesThink it’s worth inquiring anyway?
Just did. Didn’t really have info to give. But the verbiage she used made it seem as if it should be soon so fingers crossed🤞🏻🤞🏻🤞🏻

Posted on the NYMC school thread.what did she say?
You can ask but every school I’ve called is so unhelpful. “Be patient” like ITS BEEN A YEAR SINCE I APPLIED I have no patience leftThink it’s worth inquiring anyway?
Your impatience is understandable!not to be impatient but what gives… it’s been almost a week since people should have PTE
Same here! It's so stressful and it's already May! 😭Getting super stressed! I have an A which I'm grateful for but my top choice school I'm still on the WL for. Eventually I've gotta start looking at where to move. I know there's nothing I can do, sent another LOI but I'm hoping I hear something.
I've been wondering that too... I think a lot of it depends on whether you've sent a letter of intent to the WL school. I would think a LOI mitigates any disadvantage that PTE brings.I wonder if a school seeing that a waitlisted applicant has PTE’d already will impact if they send an acceptance
I think PTE is advantageous. Think about it this way people want what they can’t have. Having PTE means you have options already and thus have been vetted by other med schools.I've been wondering that too...

In your spare time while waiting you can look this up. If you haven’t already filled out your FAFSA for this year, work on that too so it will be ready if you need it.Can someone explain the FAFSA delay? Why is it delayed and for how long
We are all interdependent.@gyngyn why do you think schools that have not pushed off the PTE deadline are taking so long? Because my top choice WL school has not pushed it off as far as I can tell, and today marks 3 days longer than any other year that this school has started pulling off the WL that I’ve checked.
Thanks! When do you think is most likely movement starts picking up? Obviously every school is different but…We are all interdependent.
It is possible that other schools have been slow to offer to students who remain on waitlists.
Alright, thanks!!!Before CYMS, waitlist season was much more active and lasted longer.
Now, students are forced to make decisions earlier. This removes more "moving parts" from the process earlier.
Schools can then be more precise regarding the number of offers made.
This results in less activity in general.
As always, some schools will "over-accept." This eliminates them from waitlist movement completely.
hahah legit same they said I would get in as well!how crazy is this process making you guys? I literally went to a tarot card reading psychic asking if id get in and I check the accepted student's facebook group member count daily so I have already lost my mind completely (ps psychic said yes but dw I'm still writing my re-app lol)

How much Stormlight did it take to get past the people who have their post history turned offGet on my level. A little while back I went through every single person’s post history who reported an A or WL on my MD WL thread to see if they had reported As at other places to get a better gauge of my chances and how many people may drop their A. Supreme boredom and neuroticism.
Oh I knew from the second I saw that name that you were a fellow Cosmerenaut. It’s actually really easy, just go into the search option, search by member, enter the name in question and boom.How much Stormlight did it take to get past the people who have their post history turned off
Haha I wish I didn't know that now it's going to make me way more neurotic lolOh I knew from the second I saw that name that you were a fellow Cosmerenaut. It’s actually really easy, just go into the search option, search by member, enter the name in question and boom.
If you are about to do what I did, I wish you luck😂😂😂Haha I wish I didn't know that now it's going to make me way more neurotic lol
I straight up was doing oracle readings and a manifestation/meditation when I got off the waitlist. I was trying anything and everything to get the universe to listen.how crazy is this process making you guys?

Same, currently screaming into the abyss😭Need some prayers today !
Thank you! This is actually helpful! Can't wait to see more movement happen. I am in agony lol.Someone said this may potentially be why there is delayed WL so far:
“Because every school is interconnected. Your school may not have pushed back their PTE deadline, but let’s say there’s a more desirable program in your state that has pushed theirs back. Since applicants haven’t dropped that acceptance, people at the program you want can’t drop their acceptance to go to that school. Therefore, your stuck until the majority of schools enforce PTE deadlines, which is looking like the second half of May”
Opinions?
another day of begging the universe to get off the utmb waitlist. one of the only tmdsas schools w movement so far, so it’s sooo painful
Im not even really worried that there won’t be movement (I’m only WLd at DO schools), I know there will be but I don’t wanna wait till mid to end of June for major movement. I would love vacation this summer before I become a slave to medicine lol but I can’t bc I may have to get up and move across the country with a weeks noticeSomeone said this may potentially be why there is delayed WL so far:

I totally get that. I'm right there with you and it leaves me anxious! I really keep bouncing back and forth thinking that I've got it, I'll get an A from one of my schools and thinking that there's no way it's going to happen. It's really a toxic cycle ngl haha but we've all got this!Im not even really worried that there won’t be movement (I’m only WLd at DO schools), I know there will be but I don’t wanna wait till mid to end of June for major movement.
