According to this - https://www.amc.edu/wp-content/uploads/sites/3/2024/07/3.3-MD-Student-Handbook-UME-7.18.24.pdf - it's a mix of honors and pass/fail. (The grading section starts on page 27.)Also, whats the grading scale like?

Congrats! Interesting that they’re accepting right before the April 30th deadline…
Congratulations!! Hopefully to be in the same situation sooner than later lol. I wonder if they are forcing people to make quick decisions?
They are. I think that they have to decide by Monday, were given the admit today.Congratulations!! Hopefully to be in the same situation sooner than later lol. I wonder if they are forcing people to make quick decisions?

First, congratulations to everyone! Second...why wouldn't they get until April 30 to decide, as everyone else does?They are. I think that they have to decide by Monday, were given the admit today.
Good question! I will ask the person. Apparently, they're going by WL rules, rather than the customary April 30th date. Their football, their rules.First, congratulations to everyone! Second...why wouldn't they get until April 30 to decide, as everyone else does?

Figuring I'm at the bottom of the ranked WL 😅
Hopefully there's some more movement next week! Otherwise, good luck to anyone who's starting their re-apps...

Why do you say this? And there will be more movement, as others holding a spot at Albany get into other schools that they'd prefer to attend,off of the wait list at those schools. Hang in there. It's not going to be really over until mid-August.Figuring I'm at the bottom of the ranked WL 😅

Thanks for the encouragement! Tempering expectations, I suppose. One good thing is that Albany will let everyone know regardless by July 21 according to the AL response email, so at least we won't have to wait until AugustWhy do you say this?

Any insight on WL movement?
Just withdrew my acceptance with very small scholarship. Hope it goes to one of you!!

Going by last year's thread – it looks like a few people were accepted on 5/14, 5/16, and 5/17, and also at the end of the month. But it's hard to say because of course people who aren't on SDN might be getting off the waitlist any time. Let's keep the faith people!Any insight on WL movement?
Any news today?
