kreedz Posted May 7, 2020 Report Share Posted May 7, 2020 OMSAS peeps are probably stuck and bored in quarantine too so they probably said something like "let's give a random set of people from a random school (Mac) a new, shiny button, and then watch the fire that ensues on PM101" coffeeandmed and Crunch 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can also join but really what would round out this midnight checking team is someone WITH the button checking to see if it disappears at midnight - meaning OMSAS noticed our freak out and fixed it/it was actually a glitch/OMSAS didn't mean to release any info this early.

There's nothing to stop someone from calling/emailing OMSAS with a phone number/email not associated with their application if it really matters to them. Personally, I really doubt the person answering phones/emails is going to add any insight to this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

X Æ A-12 Posted May 7, 2020 Report Share Posted May 7, 2020 My friend with a MD PhD acceptance this cycle has the button - Ive no idea if it has any significance for us waiting for May12 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
short_stack Posted May 7, 2020 Report Share Posted May 7, 2020 Kind people of PM101, I have an announcement to make: I have a friend in Mac yr 1 who said I'm being crazy and that these glitches have occurred before. APPARENTLY before interviews went out this cycle, some people had a weird blue button and some did not. Last cycle's midnight release also only affected SOME people. Here I was thinking the midnight glitch was a legit feature because I thought everyone saw their offers at midnight, but there were some who found out at midnight and some who still got an offer with emails later in the day who did NOT have it at midnight. I am not saying The Button is 100% a glitch but I think the systems are not very great and it's likely not worth it to focus on these things. Especially if it is true that there was already some weird blue button error this cycle. It seems OMSAS doesn't know how to handle its damn buttons LOL tea-otter, ejvrei, redbeanbun and 4 others 5 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Apparently ppl thought it was correlated to whether you get interviews. Lo and behold with-buttoners and without-buttoners both got interviews chxiel 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is a situation on OMSAS. From what I understand, last cycle all western applicants found out at midnight. Which was an accurate reflection of the final result anyways.

I thought it was literally ALL applicants, not just UWO ones. Even still, it was obviously an error to release it early. Meaning errors happen and this might be one as well.
