do you guys think that maybe more people in chunks will be taken off the waitlist next week? since it's been only the first week that the waitlist has started to move and they're just being slow...
My guess is, since we havent heard from them by now, the only way we'd get a spot is if someone declines an acceptance this week or later, i doubt they're any big blocks, if there ever were, those are probably over ... perhaps disqgfish will inject some optimistic thinking though ...
called admissions...class is full but people withdraw so that would be the only way to get a spot.
Wow, at least, even if i never become a doctor, ive learned how to read admissions offices spot-on.
sigh.. that is very depressing to hear.
And there are still almost 2.5 weeks until orientation starts, so there still might be a spot or two opening up. Keep the faith!
exactly it ain't over til its over!!!!
it's good you guys are very optimistic 👍
So did anyone start to re-apply for the 2009 cycle yet?
Funny story (sort of): I was convinced that I wasn't going to be accepted this past cycle, and submitted my primary earlier this month. The day I became under review by AMCAS was the day I got the call from Kelli Kennedy.
The moral: REAPPLY!
I agree. Reapply. I submitted my AMCAS 2 weeks ago. Just got the phone call for med school today (UIC).
Yep!
Yep Yep!
See...in less than 10 minutes things are already looking up. Let's hope that new spot goes to someone on here.
Hey guys,
Can you go to the status check site (if your still on the waiting list and haven't been accepted...) and see what happens when you login. I logged in and it brings me to a new page that offers me the option to apply to their biomedical sciences program. I'm thinking that they completely took me off the waitlist, and not in the good way.
Let me know what happens...🙁

Wow. Mine has that too...and I've been accepted. Weird.
same here... I guess that means the school isn't going to take anyone off the waitlist anymore.
They gotta fill KTLION's spot. that means at least one comes off the waitlist. Out of, im guessing, at least 100 ...
The status page is up and running again!
I just got the email today saying my AMCAS has been verified. I would love to follow that with a phone call of acceptance 😀

Good luck everyone!

mistrygirl may be a waitlister who is in the process of reapplying in case she doesn't get in.

You are correct, sir, by the look of her post history. I mistook her low post count (18) as an indication of a newbie...
No offense to mistrygirl...
haha..that's ok! I'm an infrequent poster...mostly a stalker 🙂
I was just commenting on the fact that a few people were saying that as soon as they took the next step to reapply, they got a call from a waitlist.
Hey all. A girl posted over in the Drexel Class of 2012 thread that she was accepted off the waitlist today. So apparently things are still moving a little bit. KTLION24 is male, however, so there could be a chance that his spot is still open...
thanks for letting us know! still hope!
I just got accepted today!!! Got the call from Kelli Kennedy at 6PM!!!
There's still hope 🙂
There's still hope 🙂
Congrats! See thats what we were talking about. Act as if ur not getting in and let the waitlist do its thing! 😀
Big CONGRATS to U!
Good luck in the scramble now. I hope ur in-state!
This is crazy. I was verified the day after I got the call from Kelli and you were accepted the day after you were verified. Maybe reapplying is the secret.
That's so weird!
I was also signed up to take the MCAT on Aug 5. Whew...dodged one there...
GOOD LUCK TO EVERYONE STILL WAITING!
Are you guys all still in hopes of getting accepted off the waitlist this week?
I start my first day of work today.... I guess we all have to move on...

i'm still hoping
Hope work goes well! I dont think I'll be able to completely kill all hope demons until the second day of classes, but I realize the abysmally low chances. Still have some hope fro next year though.
When does school start? Is it really possible that some people get accepted until 2nd day of classes? People drop out of the school that late?
I got a call from a 215 number today while i was in class in the late afternoon. if it was them I would most likely decline. I'll let you guys know if I hear anything tomorrow.
i emailed admissions and they said they will pull off people til aug.11 as long as people continue to withdraw...
and yeah let us know dieselD, that would open up another spot!

I dont think it was them. I didnt receive any other calls today. kinda odd though, I never get calls from philly.
has anyone heard anything? anyone getting off the waitlist in the past week? I was told they accept til first day of class...has anyone been told the same? I'll probably call again on monday to see if people are still withdrawing.
I don't think anything has heard anything anymore.
Maybe it's not going to happen anymore... I have given up hopes.
