Beeckusu Posted May 9, 2017 Report Share Posted May 9, 2017 Yeah, but it said the e-mail was sent to me at 10:46am, so the delay may possibly be technical. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bobbyshmedder Posted May 9, 2017 Report Share Posted May 9, 2017 Not going to lie, really disappointed in myself... It is a Low waitlist I was really surprised though, the interview felt okay at worst. But the physician on the panel was definitely the least engaged and maybe that's what got me in the end.

thuls.m Posted May 9, 2017 Report Share Posted May 9, 2017 Anyone know why some of us have unspecified campus? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Olaf Posted May 9, 2017 Report Share Posted May 9, 2017 Anyone know why some of us have unspecified campus? Maybe they can't give you your top choice right now but if someone declines their offer of admission then they can offer you your preferred campus choice?

rmorelan Posted May 9, 2017 Report Share Posted May 9, 2017 Maybe they can't give you your top choice right now but if someone declines their offer of admission then they can offer you your preferred campus choice? exactly - they suspect they will be able to give you the campus of choice eventually but they cannot 100% guarantee it now. You have to wait for the waitlist movement to be finalize things. Most likely you asked for London and in the end you will get it. There is a small chance you will actually get at least in theory Windsor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SunAndMoon Posted May 9, 2017 Report Share Posted May 9, 2017 Friends, it's been as much of a pleasure as it could have been to go through the wait with you guys. I'm on the normal waitlist, I felt very well about my interview but I suspected my GPA and MCAT were not that high. While it's not over and there might still be a chance it seems fairly low so I'm not holding my breath. Sauna and applicant111 I believe you guys got high WL'ed - I'm very happy for you both and I hope you get the school you ultimately want the most. Aray623, congratulations! Everyone else, whether it worked out or not this year, things will eventually work out, in medicine or in something else. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That is always a possibility. We'll see how things move during the summer The warriors blew a 3-1 lead so for all we know, he could be #1 on the normal wait list.

Exactly I spent the last few days in drawn-shades, beard-growing isolation thinking that it would all be over today. This was a mistake.

prolonged_cutie Posted May 10, 2017 Report Share Posted May 10, 2017 How can you guys tell between high/normal/low waitlists? I was under the impression that the email would say specifically, but mine definitely did not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SunAndMoon Posted May 10, 2017 Report Share Posted May 10, 2017 Does anyone have any idea as to how much the waitlist moves and how many people are in the high/normal WLs? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rmorelan Posted May 10, 2017 Report Share Posted May 10, 2017 Does anyone have any idea as to how much the waitlist moves and how many people are in the high/normal WLs? this is all very, very rough of course - about 1/3 of the class is pulled off of the waitlist. The high waitlist is designed to clear. again all just some kind of guideline based on some history. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
noodledoodle Posted May 10, 2017 Report Share Posted May 10, 2017 Stealing from the thread I linked above again... "I think the general consensus from the past is that the good waitlist clears and maybe a third or half of the normal one clears" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
