Anyone heard from adult track? It's still early
 
1. Does anyone know how confident one can be they were rejected from a site if they didn't receive a mass email?

2. Is it the case that places that send mass emails at one time do not send other mass emails or personal emails at a later time for different applicants?

I'm having a crazy time scheduling and am trying to leave a few dates open for some high priority sites.

Has anyone received a rejection from St. Luke's or Rutgers? I'm hoping I'm in the "Will Invite Eventually" or "Maybe" pile instead of the "We Don't Want Her but also Don't Feel Like Sending Out a Rejection Email Right Now" pile.

I applied to the Clinical Child-Community Track and haven't heard anything. I think my cohort-mates applied to the BMED track and have not heard either. fingers crossed, though I'm not feeling too optimistic.

Congrats! What time did you get the call from Northwestern? Wondering/hoping if I'm maybe on the list somewhere and they haven't gotten to me yet...

Still nothing from Yale. How do I interpret this?

Are you waiting on the adult DBT track? If so, I am fairly certain it will be tomorrow. I have tracked how they announce invites over the last 3 years and that track seems to come the day after the BMed track

I see where UNC Chapel Hill sent out more invites. Has anyone who applied to the child track heard anything?
 
I'm hoping tomorrow will come with a lot of notifications, as someone made the valid point that it's both a Friday and the last day of the month. Based on last year's thread, it seems that next week will likely be the grand finale for most that remain.
 
Mass rejection email from University of Michigan’s Mary A. Rackham Institute today (11/29).

I'm starting to become scared that I won't recieve any more interviews....and will only have 2 interviews. How will I match with only two interviews?
Click to expand...

Here are the statistics from 2016 in regards to how many interview invitations applicants received, and how likely they were to match (remember that in 2016 there were more applicants than positions. In 2018 there were more positions than applicants.). They haven't released that data after 2016 for some reason.

14. Number of interview offers received:

1 to 2 interviews Match rate = 60% n = 236
3 to 4 interviews Match rate = 83% n = 392
5 to 6 interviews Match rate = 90% n = 451
7 to 8 interviews Match rate = 95% n = 455
9 to 10 interviews Match rate = 99% n = 368
11 or more interviews Match rate = 99% n = 495

Applicant Survey - 2016 - Part 2

How are you keeping sane: Conducting an ad hoc review and embracing my inner "reviewer 2".
