I’m OOS, LM 72. I didn’t get a call I got an email. I was a bit confused too since everyone says that Rowan calls for WL movement.

Sorry, what does LM mean?

 

[zocdoc]

this was just now! i posted right after receiving the email

i interviewed pretty late so i didn’t expect much movement, i sent an update pre interview but nothing but thank you letters post interview.

When did you interview?

 

[zocdoc]

I interviewed on March 27th and I’m OOS, if I haven’t heard back yet is it safe to say I got rejected?😭 have people even gotten rejected because all I’m seeing on here are waitlists and As

Lizzy M score! it's a number based off of your mcat and gpa stats that tells you your chances of getting into med school -- with a grain of salt of course, as it's solely stat based. LizzyM Score Calculator - What are my medical school chances?

OOS Pre-II rejection today 🙂

I spoke with someone in admissions today and they told me that there’s been daily attrition, with people dropping their seats daily. They mentioned that this has been the case every day this week and anticipate it to continue through July, so don’t give up hope.

 

[mikasaackermann]

quick question -- when you guys email adcom, who do you address the email to in your header line? I had been addressing Dean Watkins but unsure if that's the correct thing to do

emailing admissions with a question I would say Dear Office of Admissions. For a letter of intent etc I write Dear Admissions Committee. But idk if theres anything wrong with addressing Dean Watkins

 

[Meta575]

Just withdrew my A. Best of luck to the people on the WL.

I'm assuming next week because she did say that compared to last week admissions mentioned there was very little attrition, so I think as these seats open up, they’ll start making calls.

 

[ZaSnackAttack]

They might have already been doing so. To be fair, SDN may be a small sample size compared to the entire waitlist. All we can do is hope for the best.

 

[peerless_cucumber]

this doesnt make sense. I spoke with admissions and they said they will not be sending emails to accept people off the WL, only calls

I got off the waitlist today and also got an email

 

[peerless_cucumber]

Intl A today. II 3/25, W 5/9

[Webster124]

Interviewed 2/20 waitlisted 3/3 haven’t heard back 💀

 

[peerless_cucumber]

I think so too cause it definitely wasn’t my interview 🫠

 

[zocdoc]

Interviewed 2/20 waitlisted 3/3 haven’t heard back 💀

damn i havent even gotten waitlisted, they just never got back to me and i sent 2 letters too

 

[stjoes]

I'm in the same situation. I understand that we'll prolly get waitlisted when more people withdraw but an acceptance may be unlikely at the end of it all. My LM score is 69.2 wbu?

Intl (Alternate List) WL, Interviewed 3/11 2:30pm

 

[zocdoc]

Do we think it’s possible to get off WL at this point 😭

 

[stjoes]

Do we think it’s possible to get off WL at this point 😭

I mean it may happen super late. I've heard time and time again abt how they admit students during orientation 🤐

And from stalking ppl on SDN many people with A's also have other DO and MD A's too so...!

 

[luna21]

i got placed on alternate list rn LOL. interviewed 3/12.

 

[zocdoc]

Does anyone know if alt list is ranked or unranked and if HPWL is a thing anymore

 

[luna21]

no theres no HPWL. only WL and Alternate list. not sure but I think WL and AL are ranked?

 

[klaw0311]

I thought waitlist = alternate list meaning there's only one waitlist

 

[atomicnugget]

I thought waitlist = alternate list meaning there's only one waitlist

There’s only one list this year, and it’s ranked. No one knows how they rank us. And the class has been full since December

 

[luckystar21]

I was told by an adcom member that the WL is not ranked, but that they accept new students based on where there are openings (PBL/SGL curriculum)

Well multiple adcom members have told me the opposite, so I guess at this point who knows whats going on over there

 

[Premed Phanatic]

Yeah I was told it was ranked in my advising session, but also was told there is no HPWL this year and there is only one waitlist.

 

[niiitiai]

I was told it's based on diversty (all types of forms of diversity I'm assuming, including background and experiences). Meaning they want a diverse set of students so who they take off the waitlist is based on who is already accepted and for that reason people on the waitlist are not ranked.
