chrail Posted March 12, 2011 Report Share Posted March 12, 2011 I called last week to ask.. (someone asked me to via PM) but couldn't get through to a human. Didn't want to email and have my name attached to it. Someone should just email to ask. If they won't release the info they'll just tell you - no blacklist on your name Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Didn't want to email and have my name attached to it. Someone should just email to ask. If they won't release the info they'll just tell you - no blacklist on your name I can email them (if the OOP waitlisters me to). I didn't apply, so I don't care about being blacklisted or whatever. But I don't know the email. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
neuronix Posted March 12, 2011 Report Share Posted March 12, 2011 pretty sure someone asked and called - they weren't willing to divulge the information. that's why our only hope is primary sources from people who got rejected... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's kind of silly. I don't see what the difference is if they tell people that or not. I mean, Ottawa waitlists people on a good and bad list and they don't keep that fact a secret. Anyway, for what it's worth (not much), I don't know any OOPs who were straight out rejected. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
neuronix Posted March 12, 2011 Report Share Posted March 12, 2011 thanks! I have a feeling the probably only rejected people who did some really stupid #@$% in the interview, causing them to be red flagged. This probably amounts to like 5 people.

chrail Posted March 12, 2011 Report Share Posted March 12, 2011 Yeah, out of 66 OOPs, I'm surpised there isn't more activity on here. I know not everyone posts, but all premeds are resourceful and know how to do a Google search. My guess would be that 50/66 have been to this forum. Posting is a different story. It's too bad more people don't post. It's so beneficial to all the applicants. Show yourselves!!! (Please) If I had to make an educated guess, I would say that all OOPs were waitlisted (unless they said something racist/sexist etc in the interview that got them blacklisted). The OOP applicants are just too "good" to get rejected, even with a less than stellar interview they could still have monster stats. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

neuronix Posted March 16, 2011 Report Share Posted March 16, 2011 i think mcgill IP acceptances went out today. I wonder if any of the people who go into mcgill are OOP at Dal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HBP Posted March 16, 2011 Report Share Posted March 16, 2011 I guess that OOP spot hasn't opened up yet. The waitlist will change whenever a position opens up; when this will happenI do not know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ryacha Posted March 16, 2011 Report Share Posted March 16, 2011 I guess that OOP spot hasn't opened up yet. Possibly, but we don't know if the person that got the #1 WL spot offered just hasn't reported it here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cnmnluvr Posted March 21, 2011 Report Share Posted March 21, 2011 I know one other person in this thread didn't get a reply from Tracy when asking to be kept on the wait list. Did everyone else get one? If we were given our positions I wouldn't feel as worried (since we can actually see what's happening). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
proton Posted March 21, 2011 Report Share Posted March 21, 2011 I'd posted earlier that I didn't get confirmation, but I ended up getting it a few days later. If you haven't gotten one I'd email or call or something. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ryacha Posted March 22, 2011 Report Share Posted March 22, 2011 How do they traditionally let people off the waitlist know that have been accepted/rejected (anyone from last year know for personal experience?). I'm guessing email, phone or both? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
