I'm trying to gauge where I am this cycle. I've been lucky enough to have 2 MD interviews, however, they both resulted in a waitlist. I've been doing a little research and it seems like these schools like to waitlist people post-interview instead of giving a solid rejection, I guess to spare the emotions that go with a rejection or maybe give hope that you might be accepted next cycle.
The two schools were George Washington, which resulted in an "Alternate List" and Albany, which gave me an "Under Consideration". I understand that people do come off the waitlist, however, it seems like way more people get put on the waitlist at these schools than are flat out rejected.
I've tried looking up a list of schools that silently reject people by waitlisting, but no such list exists. Anyone have any experience with this?
Edit: In order to create anxiety in future generations, I'll make a list of top suspects and keep updating
