What number were you on the waitlist if you don't mind me asking?
I got wait listed really high, which is surprising considering how well my interview went (or at least how I thought). Does anyone know who we can email to ask what we can improve on our application?

Number "no chance in hell of getting in"
Same here.
It's greater than #100, let's put it that way...
I feel the same way and have the same question
Well on to the next one, still hoping we get invites at UCLA
I haven't received anything yet 🙁 the suspense is giving me a heart attack!
Waitlist #36, will be declining

Rejected-- interviewed 1/15. Good luck to all! 🙂
I'd rather get rejected than getting this 78 number on the waitlist lol. Gonna decline it.

wait list 87... pretty much a rejection 
Got an upate email today as well. Originally #35-40, and now #25-30.. Do I still have a chance to get in?? 🙁
don't lose hope!
when I was at the interview, the dean told us that their waiting list moved up to #75 since the school starts in september
Anyone planning on withdrawing from UCSF? I can't wait till Apr. 1st. 🙁 I'm 25-30.

do we have second deposit due? or just $1000?
I believe it's just $1000, otherwise they would notify us.
I think there is a second deposit due in April of $2000.. I think they mentioned this on interview day - does anyone else remember this?
Not accordig to my acceptance email. Check your provisional admit offer
moved from mid 70s to upper 50s in last update
When did u get your update? Next one is April 1st correct?
at the same time as the first updat . just posting late lol
Haha oh gotcha! Thanks!
Moved 9 spots from March waitlist position update. #25-30 in March, #15-20 as of today.
Same! I'm 25-30 losing hope at this point
I'm really hoping for some movements! Where ru on the waitlist?

Oh you should definitely be fine! Really good chance you might even hear back soon I bet! I'm really far haha
No email either. I don't think they are gonna send us an update today.. 🙁
Ok thanks. Your user name is actually the story of all of our lives.
Moved up by only 5 spots.. Lol the movement in this year is way slower than previous years :/ time to write a new personal statement I guess..
After browsing a series of threads in previous years, I found out that a person with #high teen on May 2nd-ish got a call on June 20th in 2012 or something. Hopefully this happens in this year too haha
.
It is ideal to have our positions moved up by 8-9 spots monthly. You never know whether we were just out of luck for this month's update. However, it is reasonable to think that we might be moving up 3-5 spots from next update, since the traffic rule day, or April 15th, was past already.
For people like me who are EXTREMELY anxious about waitlist movement status, here is the gathered info from previous years' threads in SDN. (Please note that 20xx: year of class, #x: the original number that individual was given, (date): the acceptance date)
2019: #26 (4/27), #40+ (estimated by a member)
2018: #25-30 (4/28), #30-35 (5/18), #35 (5/21), #40+ (estimated by a member)
2017: #30 (#19 on March, #12 on April, #3 on May, first week of May)
2016: #42 (6/20)
2015: #48 (told by a member)
2014: #20 (word of mouth)
2012: #15 (word of mouth)
Let's just have our finger crossed for our "better" movement in next update! 🙂

Congrats! What was your waitlist number or range in May 2nd update??
Only 3 spots moved up from last update.. 🙁 I thought there would be more than 3 spots movement, since our #2 guy on May 2nd update got in on May 10th. Very disappointing.
Yup. I am very disappointed. I dont know what to do expect from reapplying.
I think that's because when I went to admit day they said only 3 spots were left for class of 2020.
