Femto Posted January 13, 2012 Report Share Posted January 13, 2012 I am pretty nervous for two weeks from now. I think there are pretty good odds that we will hear something in the first round of notifications (only because the first round was 1/3 of all applicants last year). How many of those first notifications will be invites do you think? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Applemanv3 Posted January 13, 2012 Report Share Posted January 13, 2012 I swung by the admissions office for something unrelated and asked whether we could expect news soon, and their answer was very soon. I hope it's less than 2 weeks... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thatonekid Posted January 13, 2012 Report Share Posted January 13, 2012 I hope you all get some good news (or at least don't have to wait until the absolute last day that notifications are sent out. I know how nerve-wracking that is.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Comeon Posted January 13, 2012 Report Share Posted January 13, 2012 Interviews did not go out this soon last year. Just remember that the last interview day is in late April, for which invites will likely go out in early April. Do not stress yourself because you might have to wait 4 months before hearing anything. I wasted a heck a lot of time on the U of T premed101 forum and refreshing my e-mail last year...then got rejected - I have to classify that time as the lowest point in my life Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cass Posted January 13, 2012 Report Share Posted January 13, 2012 Was it Leslie that sent the good news and Deborah the bad? Also do rejections go out on the same day ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Apixaban85 Posted January 13, 2012 Report Share Posted January 13, 2012 Was it Leslie that sent the good news and Deborah the bad? Also do rejections go out on the same day ? Deborah was the bad news The invites are rolling, as are the rejections, so both occur over the course of weeks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
quackster Posted January 14, 2012 Report Share Posted January 14, 2012 Last year a large batch of rejections were sent out in the first wave. I wonder if it'll be the same this year? As a previous poster said, try not to stress. It could be awhile before you hear. There is no use driving yourself crazy and living on edge for the better part of three months.

dassy Posted January 15, 2012 Report Share Posted January 15, 2012 Also matters when your refs handed in their forms. If they didn't until near the Dec 1 deadline you may be in the latter group. The majority of invites/rejections go out near the start don't they? From the UT admissions blog: "We do review as applications arrive, so having letters arrive later will certainly increase the likelihood of a later notification. But, just because all of your pieces arrived at OMSAS early, doesn’t mean we received it in our office equally early. As well, so many people get all of their pieces in early, it takes us a lot of time to sift through everything. You really could hear from us anywhere from late Jan to late March/early April. Sorry!"

If they didn't until near the Dec 1 deadline you may be in the latter group. The majority of invites/rejections go out near the start don't they? Not entirely true...one of my refs sent in the letter in the last week of november and I was part of the 2nd interview weekend last year . You can't predict this stuff at all! Focus on what you're doing now and try not to spend so much energy on waiting for interviews (ok...easier said than done...) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lekarza Posted January 17, 2012 Report Share Posted January 17, 2012 Was it Leslie that sent the good news and Deborah the bad? Also do rejections go out on the same day ? Deborah mentioned on twitter that they will probably send a big batch of rejections out sometime next week. I feel like this week is going to go by soooo slow! Best of luck to everyone!
