Does everyone who interview make the waitlist eventually? (basically asking if that is a 20/40 chance or a 20/140 chance haha)

I interviewed in mid January but still, sounds like wait list and no-interview rejections went out but haven't seen any interviewed-rejections or acceptances. Not sure what to make of it.

Yeah they really know how to keep you on your toes.
 
I'm interviewing on Friday. I'm not interviewing for a potential spot on the waitlist am I?

I have no definitive answer for you, but I can tell you that there was a lot of talk about how some of their favorite students were accepted pretty late in the cycle so they actively seek out people to fill their class well past what most schools do. Purely speculatory but I would assume that they wouldn't interview you without a spot to put you in if they love you.
 
Braving the snow for this interview.. Excited to see what this school has to offer! Particularly the raved about lunch 😉

Lol at braving the snow, this winter has been child's play except for that one storm that was normal but everyone freaked out over. Lunch will change your life though!

I go to school in the Midwest so I'm used to it, we just got hit with 2-3 inches right around rush hour getting into the city this morning. Lunch was absolute bomb though

Hey try to ask when you think we'll hear something lol
 
Just want to warn people. 10 fourth years didn't match this year, several failed a portion of their NERB and had to retake it. If you're coming here to specialize, don't think that the name of this school will carry as much weight as you think it will. I can't wait to get out of this place.

We were told at my interview that 9/9 matched for OS and 9/10 matched for ortho this year. Its clear that if you want to match you need to put in the work, but that Columbia offers the opportunity to do that. I'm sure some people will slack off with the H/P/F grading system and try to ride the name, but a good student wouldn't risk that IMO.

Peds went 8/12. Most of the people who didn't match didn't get Peds and GPR. Still kinda unacceptable for a school that brags about specialty rates.

To be fair, Peds is becoming the most competitive speciality of recent. Placing 20% of their class in OS is impressive, imo.

Considering it's still above tha national average, it seems pretty braggable
 
So I was perusing last years thread.. they sent out a wave of notifications around 2/26.. I'm assuming they may do the same after they interview the last applicants this Friday. But it could be later this year.. :shrug:
