Anyone know if there is significant waitlist movement ?

 

[kingbob128]

Waitlisted today after interview last week. Sigh, I thought the interview went great. At least I didn't get rejected

Whoa that was really fast, do you live close to NYIT?

Not really, like an hr away driving. But I'm an instate. Made next day after i interviewed too, I hope this wasn't predetermined lol. anyone get letter postmarked day after interview?

 

[Doc Surge]

So who else had their interview cancelled and rescheduled due to the weather? I wish the media didn't hype every winter storm up so much...

 

[ShinkuMDgami]

Are there any current students who don't mind answering a few questions about NYIT COM?
I would really appreciate some insight.
Please PM me.

How long did they say it would take to notify you of their decision? A week seems really fast!

same here. but on a side note, if it really was your MCAT score, they could have declined to give you an interview invite in the first place. I'm sure there are lots of 30+ applicants as well..

True , but couple points more and I would have possibly had an acceptance I feel. But I still have a chance. Did you guys interview recently?

 

[charmed22]

wait listed today!
interviewed in mid novemeber- thought it went really well too. 29MCAT/3.72gpa
anybody know how the wait list movement is?

 

[Hassm1990]

Waitlisted several days ago also. 28 MCAT/3.71 cGPA IS volunteer firefighter/paramedic. 20 minutes from school which devastated me lol. I don't see the list moving at all. I am getting ready for school OOS.

Excellent riposte, sir! Just as informative and not at all trollish, just like your debut.

[tmandudeguy]

Stats?

My stats were 3.62 cum, 3.43 science, 27 MCAT with MD and DO letter from 2 separate ER shadowings, Undergrad Research, and decent amount of EC (hobbies and stuff)

 

[tmandudeguy]

When was your letter dated?

Letter was dated January 16th but it got to me on January 25th..... odd because im IS and I live like 20 mins from the school

 

[tmandudeguy]

Also bad rep for this school? I thought this was one of the top tier DO schools, it has great residency matches and some of the best rotation sites available being in NY....
