What about post-interview holds? Are they different from waitlists? I have 2 "holds", can I join?

This club appears to be full. Maybe you should place applicants who want to get in on a waiting list.

I'm suprised this thread is still alive. I still haven't heard anything. I was gone for the weekend and was hoping I'd have some medical school mail...zilch..only junk mail! 😡
I shouldn't complain...at least I didn't get any rejections. 🙂 Anyways, I hope you peeps hear some good news this week...make sure to share it w/ us. 🙂

If so, can you tell me what my rank is on the waitlist? Also, if I send a letter expressing my genuine interest in your club, will that improve my chances?

Letters of intent should be sent to Aphrodite. Include a list of activities you have been doing since your initial requests to join this club... hell, welcome aboard!! 😀

As requested by Queen Aphrodite, I am now a part of this waitlisteds club. I hereby meet the requirements of being hot, smart, and waitlisted.

I guess I should honor Queen Aphrodite's request or else I may not be allowed in SDN Chat :wink:

Here is my admission's ticket..with pic ID

I'm startin' to like callin' the shots...it has its perks! :wink:

Here's another enticing offer to those who are too shy to join....TheJurisDoctor has agreed to provide us w/ free legal advice in case we choose to sue any schools. Oh, the places we'll go.... :wink:

Committee letters will be accepted in lieu of the 3 separate recs. 🙂 Once received, the committee will get back to you w/in a reasonable period of time (anywhere from 2-16 weeks). Please be patient as we sort through the thousands of applications. 😀 :wink: 🙂

Ms. President,

If I don't get into the waitlist club this year, what do you advise I do during my year off while waiting to apply for next years membership??? 😕 😕
What can I do to make my application better??? <img border="0" alt="[Pity]" title="" src="graemlins/pity.gif" />

Hallelujah, I've been delivered from limbo by a favorable nod from the goddess of med school admissions. (To whom I have been offering incense and oblations without ceasing.) <img src="http://www.emotipad.com/emoticons/worship.gif" alt="" /> <img src="http://www.emotipad.com/emoticons/worship.gif" alt="" />

It was from GTown and it's my first acceptance, but can I stay in the club while I wait, in all improbable hope, to hear from UPenn?

 

[Hero]

Congrats!! 😀

It was a bit slow beginning of this month but things seem to be picking up again. Best of luck to everyone on this list!!

I have a question, should we be calling the Admissions Office or our interviewer(s) if we want to bug them about getting off the waitlist?

I suggest you ask gower at <a href="http://www.medicalgold.com/" target="_blank">http://www.medicalgold.com/</a> he might have info on the specific school you are seeking.

Normally, the committee would "revoke" your membership, but I think a special exception can be made in this case. The Waitlisted Club committee has thereby extended your membership in the club. 😀
