I still stand by my prediction.laboholic said:a few months ago gdbaby predicted that I will get in, so I am pretty confident. 😀
Thanks gdbaby,gdbaby said:I still stand by my prediction.
BTW DrZee: I can't remember the stats of accept/waitlist/reject, but I do remember those stats being presented to me and thinking I have a 50/50 shot of getting in post-interview.
Also, they send you a wonderful letter in a big, thin envelope. 🙂
DrZee said:By the way has anyone dared to call the office recently and ask whats up?
Holy Crap! Good luck to all of you!!! Labaholic, you will have to buy me a beer when I get in town to thank me for my ability to see into the future! Damn, Iowa does everything early! 🙂jrae said:From a fellow lab mate who has applied this cycle:
LETTERS WERE SENT OUT TODAY!!
Good luck to you all!! Hope to see you all in the fall! (espically DocMD85, cus she's cool)

snobored18 do you know how many of the 170 are in-state and how many OOS?snobored18 said:I don't think they register you for the pre-M1 communications on ICON until you accept their offer and turn in the deposit...then again they just opened that up to accepted students maybe 3 weeks ago...at that time they sent a mass e-mail not off the list serve to all of those who were accepted and it looks like they have accepted close to 170 people thus far (I was bored at work one day and counted). So they have already over shot the class size in the rolling phase. Based on previous years they probably will still hand out at least 30 more out-right acceptances before they set their waitlist as I'd assume a number of people previously accepted may be headed elsewhere.

snobored18 said:I can't tell you that...basically what happened is they sent an e-mail regarding our ICON passwords to all accepted students only everyone's e-mail was visible so being bored in lab one day I decided it would be way more entertaining to count how many people were on the list to get an idea of how many folks they already let in then do what I was supposed to be doing. So I have absolutely no way of breaking it down...all I do know is there seemed to be a ton of @uiowa.edu addresses.
jrae said:at @uiowa address can be either in state or oos. There are a decent number of oos undergrads at Iowa.
Noooooo!!!DocMD85 said:oh dear....lol alternate list...number 12...resident list...what do u guys think!!??!?!
DocMD85 said:oh dear....lol alternate list...number 12...resident list...what do u guys think!!??!?!
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!! What the hell is this potential applicant pool for anyway?!?!?laboholic said:Looks like you are in! 👍 (I know 2 people w/ acceptances that are going to turn them down... so you are already #10)
Unfortunately, I will not be joining you 👎
thanks for the hopes gdbaby, but I dont think I will be using your fortune telling services in the future 😀
Have as much fun at Iowa as I have the last 6 years! Its a great city!

I have heard really nice things about that school! Tell you what: if I end up at Iowa, I will have your girlfriend over for cocktails at least once a month. She will tell funny stories about you and I will make some up. Like, remember that camping trip we all went on and you drank down the benadryl thinking it was Pepto-Bismol? Man, we couldn't wake you up for days!!!laboholic said:Looks like Im going to Midwestern University in chicago - DO
I really liked the school when I interviewed so im not too bummed - my girlfriend is going to Iowa, thats the bad part 🙁
