UofThopeful Posted July 19, 2012 Report Share Posted July 19, 2012 Did you get a call and tell them you didn't want the spot or did you simply remove yourself from the waitlist? Thanks for letting us know. I called the office today and there's still 10 movements, so i'm assuming they're removing themself? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cleanup Posted July 19, 2012 Author Report Share Posted July 19, 2012 I called the office today and there's still 10 movements, so i'm assuming they're removing themself? A more diagnostic question would've been "What rank am I right now?" That tells you not only how many movements there have been but also how many people in front of you have dropped their waitlist position. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cleanup Posted July 19, 2012 Author Report Share Posted July 19, 2012 Turns out I'm still #4. I hope aslkk wasn't trolling. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm still #6 so i think he's just telling us ahead of time that he will turn down the offer if it comes up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nezura Posted July 27, 2012 Report Share Posted July 27, 2012 Thanks eupharie. Just for people who are curious, a friend of mine (who is also on these forums) kept a quick and dirty list of waitlist movement from past years: Year Total offers Waitlist offers 2010 92 27 2009 92 27 2008 91 26 2007 105 40 2006 89 24 2005 100 35 I'd say people up to rank 20 are looking in good shape right now. Last year was a very slow year and this year is faster than last year by quite a bit (or so it would seem from the threads). I didn't include 2011 as although the Premed folks only went up to 19, it may have been a couple more than that. Would have to wait for official word from U of T to be sure. Glad you gave me credit =P. Good luck to everyone! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, usually. 10 so far is already not bad. A lot of movement is expected in a week or two once the deposit deadline creeps up. Keeping my fingers crossed.

UofThopeful Posted August 3, 2012 Report Share Posted August 3, 2012 They're operating on summer hours, so you won't be able to reach them after 12 noon I called today and there hasn't been any movements. I guess we have to wait the long weekend out Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guess we have to wait the long weekend out Ah, I didn't know that. I don't suppose anyone got a hold of them today? I called at like 11:45 but wasn't able to get through. It's been impossible trying to reach them! I had to email them to change my contact information but don't know if they received the email or have bothered to change it yet...

UofThopeful Posted August 9, 2012 Report Share Posted August 9, 2012 I walked over to the building today since they weren't picking up my calls either. The lady said i'm #3 now (which means it moved 3 more). Don't know how good my chances are at this point -sigh- but you're next cleanup Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They're not picking up the phone/answering my emails at all. :X It sure looks like it If the 3 spots that move is just from the original accepted people not paying the deposit then you should be in very soon since aslkk is rejecting his offer. However, if it includes aslkk's rejection then you would be #1. Either way it looks good for you. I just hope it moves 3 more spots soon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cleanup Posted August 10, 2012 Author Report Share Posted August 10, 2012 Haha I think it might take a couple days. I just called and they still said I'm #1. Maybe they haven't processed it all yet. Thanks for all the encouragement everyone. And thank you to aslkk especially! Virtual Premed101 drinks are on me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
