hoping for the A today 🙁 idk how to move forward without knowing my fate

For real! Like do I get a job? Take classes? Retake the MCAT? Knit sweaters? Idk what to do being here in limbo.

I’ve been studying for the MCAT as if I’m going to take it again soon but I don’t have a test scheduled.

I’ve got an application to an SMP waiting for review that I started before i got waitlisted.

I have an MCAT scheduled and I can barely find the motivation to study! :/

Same! I’ve been actively studying for the MCAT but don’t have a date scheduled yet either. I’ve also been working on an online MBA application as a backup just in case too and starting to plan what I’ll need if I have to redo the AACOMAS app again[emoji2957][emoji854].

It’s overwhelming!! This area of limbo is a tough spot because I don’t really know what to do except just wait. Here’s hoping we all hear soon so we can start making some decisions and definite plans either way!
 
Wishing everyone who is still on the waitlist the best! I made the mistake of constantly checking SDN/Reddit for waitlist movement every 2 hr or so. I realized it just made me more anxious knowing calls were being made but they weren't for me. So try not to get too hooked on here as it could also negatively affect you like it did me.
 
I got an II to a two year masters of medical science program today.

I feel like my life gets more complicated as this year goes on.

is anyone here waiting to hear back from NSU KPCOM? I feel like waitlist movement is so slow unlike last years? Has anyone been able to reach out to admissions regarding potential future movement?
