will this info really help all that much?? I have a 32 mcat, im sure someone else waiting has a 36 and another person has a 28...supposedly their waitlist isnt ranked so i think at this point its about more than numbers

Just checking back to see if anyone on here got the good news today... I withdrew my acceptance yesterday and got a very nice e-mail confirming the withdrawal (and $2900 tuition prepayment refund! 🙂 ) within minutes, so hopefully someone will hear soon.

I hope the spot goes to an SDN-er on this thread! :luck:

So do the rest of us!!! Thanks again for being so thoughtful as to think of us. 🙂 To the person who posted about stats, I had a 30, mediocre GPA, masters degree, good LORs and great extracurrics. I don't know if stats really matter at this point... A lot of the people on the top of the waitlist were re-applicants, so I really think they take that into consideration.
 
Getting this baby back to page 1.
Have a great weekend everyone and good luck next week!
:luck: :luck: :luck:

hey there- i wouldn't worry about stats at all! i got a 22, yes I repeat...a 22 on the MCAT (am not a URM), GPA= 3.4, have my MPH, have done 5+ years in HIV/STD prevention research.

as you can see, stats alone cannot predict any outcome. i received an interview in Sept and with my stats alone, I should not even have been granted an interview, let alone a waitlist position. i'm sure everyone will agree that this process is super random. i was only was only interviewed at 1 DO school and 3 MD programs, and got into the DO and Suny Buffalo (but am still holding out for GW!!). so honestly, i wouldn't go by our stats, just focus on pumping out the most appealing and best application that you can! best of luck.
 
The admissions office openly admits that there are no number cut-offs and every application is reviewed. Pretty crazy considering there are 10,000 of them every year to go through! They look for diversity in their classes, not just culturally but experientially, although some years are moreso than others.

I doubt it but perhaps they can spend that time off to think hard about who else to let in from their waitlist...
 
bumping in hopes that one of us gets a call this week
 
I guess that spot that just opened went to someone who doesnt post on SDN...

not me...is anyone else finding it ridiculously difficult to stay hopefull? Im getting stress headaches everyday from this crap and I just want it to be over. I hope admission committee members never have to endure the feeling of wanting something so badly and not being able to attain it

I understand how you're feeling. If I didn't have my job to distract me, I'll probably go completely crazy too. Do you have a backup plan?

It's nice to see this little gem active again 🙂
I have stopped hoping to get a call from GW and have already started working on my Plan B.
Of course, that won't stop me from posting a few of these
:luck: :luck: :luck: :luck:
 
For some reason, I actually have the slightest bit of hope since orientation is Aug 16th..that gives us what...3 weeks to wait in agony??
