Anyone on SCCO's wait list and is planning to go there if they get accepted?
are they putting everyone on the waitlist? I heard they handed out all their spots.
i found all the answers to the questions i had about the SCCO alternate list from an older thread here: http://forums.studentdoctor.net/archive/index.php/t-806429.html
good luck!
did you already get accepted to berkeley optoapp2012?
Updates anyone?
Anyone accepted from the waitlist yet?
Any idea how many total acceptances SCCO has given out so far?
To drop or to keep those labs should depend on how well you think you will do in them. I think it is a better idea to take it slowly and do well in those classes.
Did you get into another school already?
how did you find out which quartile? did they send you mail/e-mail or did you call the admissions office?
did everyone in the first quartile get in last year? Did they tell you?
I'm pretty annoyed. SCCO should do a better job of keeping in touch with their waitlist applicants, including sending an e-mail informing the applicant that they've finalized their waitlist ranks and are ready to disclose the quartiles.
I've asked...and have gotten vague answers like "toward the end of April." I'm not saying I need to be "babysat" but I feel it should be a courtesy of the admissions department, considering so many of their applicants are waiting on the edge of their seats for any further correspondence from the school. Sorry you're a better applicant than me because you call the office more *rolls eyes*WTF it's not their job to babysit you. if you really wanted to get in, then you would have asked when the official waitlist comes out like I did.

I would also like to know how they did on their boards this year!
Boards results for this year aren't released to the students until May 9th so unfortunately, no one knows how they did this year yet.
ah okay, does accreditation even depend on board exam results?

this isnt true! i was in the second quartile and got in. there are people in the 2015 class that got in even up to the first day of orientation. you never know
(in reply to optomchick)
Ya but getting in the day before orientation would be really hard to find a roommate/place to live. Also I'm in the 3rd quartile...not the 2nd. Thanks, but I'm sure I'm not getting in.
I think you'd be surprised. I'm not going to SCCO, but I was visiting Berkeley this last weekend to find housing and I was bummed because all the landlords were saying we were looking too early and that when they post openings, they expect them to rent within days. So I'm sure the market is unique everywhere, and it would certainly mean doing a fast job of moving, but if you really want SCCO then it could still work out!
Optomchick what are your stats?
Hey guys,
I just received an email back from them saying they won't know who they are pulling from their alternate list until at least may 15th....when final deposits are due...
So i guess more waiting until then...they told me i'm in the 2nd quartile. :/
Hey optomchick, I forgot to mention I had to email them first...so don't feel bad about it!I didn't get an email? lol do they not bother to email the 3rd quartile...if you look at last year's thread, it looks like they gave students an extra 2 week buffer after that for processing...so you prob won't even hear back till June 1st :/
Hey optomchick, I forgot to mention I had to email them first...so don't feel bad about it!
Argh! June 1st! This is killing me (and i'm sure others too...) because I have to make arrangements to move to go to Nova by mid July if I don't get in to SCCO....and I hate doing things last minute!
Optomchick, are you sure about June 1st or did u just read from other threads? I cant imagine having to wait till june, but I will
