OOS WL interviewed August 18.

Damn. Can anyone shed light on what the waitlist movement at Wayne looks like throughout the year?
 
+1 OOS waitlist. Interviewed 11/10. Thought for sure I’d get rejected after bombing the MMI portion

When does waitlist movement typically start for Wayne? Mostly after April 30th?
Looking at past threads, apparently they have tons of movement. Waitlist is apparently pretty much like a pool they keep comparing every month and pulling from.

Someone reported getting waitlisted and pulled off in 3 weeks last year lol. Someone above said the waitlist is like a soft R, def not true. Wayne's soft R is when you don't get a decision until May, when they reject you. Waitlist is a decent position to be in for now.

The AMCAS website mentions approximately 200 offers out of 600 waitlisted applicants for an average cycle

Ey dude/dudette, this process is extremely unfair. Take solace in the fact that you put so much effort to even get to this point in the stage. It's an achievement honestly. A lot of people kill to be in this position imo in the first place (kill is a strong word, but you get what i mean lmao).

Like others said, this is not a bad position to be in. It's how you frame it that's important.

Does anyone know whether Wayne takes letter of intent? I'm seeing mixed things. They only explicitly state "up to 5 updates" in the portal, but I have seen that people have sent intent in the past. Thanks!
