Is this normal for this time of year?

Is it possible that a school has accepted someone but not yet called/notified them?

Any from Pitt?? Thanks for this information

Waiting for them too. At the interview they told us about a third of the class comes from the waitlist. But they sure are taking their time...

 

[gyngyn]

It seems like a lot to me.

 

[Goro]

It seems like a lot to me.

Think it relates to the new accepts/wait list rules?

 

[Basil246]

Think it relates to the new accepts/wait list rules?

What new rules? I wasn’t that familiar with the old ones

 

[iloveham47]

I know that Harvard, Stanford, and Yale have had waitlist movement (from personal experience and hearing from my friends currently applying).

WL movement has been kind of quiet around here.

and maybe this as well?
The 2018-2019 cycle is going to get turned upside down

Remember, I can only see where folks we have interviewed are accepted.
Once waitlist movement begins at a particular school it is likely to continue until orientation.
There is certain to be much more movement than I can see (since we didn't interview that many candidates).

I will tell you what I see, but we have relatively little overlap with many schools...

But how do the rule changes for next cycle affect the timing of waitlist movement this cycle?

Ahhh I see. Well thanks for the info! I hope there's plenty more WL movement to come.

Nobody knows.
I can only report that as it stands it's going to be chaos.

 

[littlelooper]

anyone hear any news from rosalind franklin?

 

[pipette_master]

Just to clarify, are the new rules AAMC announced recently effective starting now instead of starting in the upcoming cycle (2018-2019)?

These changes begin next year.

Waitlist dreams do come true! HMS Pathways here I come!

On MSAR for NYMC it says 75 people were accepted off the waitlist, I guess this actually means matriculants if they meant 1/3 of the class came off the waitlist? In other words, they actually had to accept more than 75 people?

 

[IceDuchess]

Hi everyone!

Fellow waitlistee here joining the thread.

I am currently waitlisted at CNUCOM. Really hoping to hear some positive news soon.

Wish you all the best of luck!

 

[MooberGoober]

No luck today...

 

[Basil246]

No luck today...

[F1lover]

Has anyone heard of any movement from WUSTL?

 

[Almond Man]

And no pizza for @BuckStrickland

I'll give him until Wednesday. After that, the size of the pizza will decrease each day I'm in silence.

 

[5sosfan]
