Guest09 Posted March 16, 2016 Report Share Posted March 16, 2016 Thought I'd start a poll for OOP wait-listers as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

upthecreek Posted March 16, 2016 Report Share Posted March 16, 2016 Does anyone know if there are OOP rejections after the interview? It seems like OOPers posting are all waitlisted. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest09 Posted March 16, 2016 Author Report Share Posted March 16, 2016 I heard that one year recently they moved through the entire wait list (although I think there were extenuating circumstances involving a staff strike), so they might just put everyone on the list to avoid that happening again. Carolyn has told me that historically the wait list moves 10-12 spots, but who knows... they're quite secretive about the waitlist, how many are on it, positions etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mbed11 Posted March 16, 2016 Report Share Posted March 16, 2016 I was on the waitlist last year and did not receive an acceptance, so it didn't move through everyone (which based on the polls last year was about 8 people) but I am sure this changes each year.

Bobbai Posted March 16, 2016 Report Share Posted March 16, 2016 Does anyone know if there are OOP rejections after the interview? It seems like OOPers posting are all waitlisted. Last year I was rejected after the interview so it does happen, unless they changed things. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
neuro550 Posted March 16, 2016 Report Share Posted March 16, 2016 Really hoping for that OOP wait list movement that I've heard about, but even then not sure if it would move as much as I need it to. Congratulations to everyone for making it this far though; it's a huge accomplishment and we should all be very proud! Dal score: 68.67 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boggie111 Posted March 16, 2016 Report Share Posted March 16, 2016 I can confirm that the OOP waitlist moves quite a bit, so don't give up hope everyone! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
neuro550 Posted March 16, 2016 Report Share Posted March 16, 2016 Does anyone know if there are OOP rejections after the interview? It seems like OOPers posting are all waitlisted. There is one person on the Accepted/Rejected/Wait List thread that said they were rejected post-interview this admissions cycle, so I think not all are on the wait list (unless of course they were put on it, but just interpreted the letter as a rejection).

frankenstein Posted March 16, 2016 Report Share Posted March 16, 2016 Waitlisted, first year applying, score 73.2 It's great how supportive this thread is, made me feel better after reading the decision letter! Hopefully May will bring some good news for us waitlisters! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mbed11 Posted March 16, 2016 Report Share Posted March 16, 2016 Noticing a lot of people in the 71-71.9 range, just wanted to throw it out that my interview score was a 71.66 in case anyone is trying to see where they stand! After going through the process of being waitlisted last year I know how the process feels (especially getting my rejecting at the end of August). I just wanted to congratulate everyone on making it this far! I know it might be a little disappointing, and we were all probably hoping for different results this morning, but there is still a good chance for everyone here!

NewDirection Posted March 17, 2016 Report Share Posted March 17, 2016 Did anybody else find their essay/supplemental scores to be way lower than they thought it would be? Like, WAY lower? I got 19.82/35, so like 55%. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NewDirection Posted March 17, 2016 Report Share Posted March 17, 2016 Also, another question, since all the OOPs are gathered here. The day before my interview another OOP person and their family were super nice and gave me a ride from downtown Halifax to my hotel. Just curious if that person is on here!

Guest09 Posted March 17, 2016 Author Report Share Posted March 17, 2016 Yeah for sure, I was shocked at my essay/supplemental score. I thought it was the strongest part of my application, but I was quite wrong apparently haha.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I got 19.82/35, so like 55%. Yeah I found the same! I'm going to try to make an appointment to call them and ask. Either they mark it really hard or I was just way off the mark. Thought this was a strong part of my application too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mbed11 Posted March 22, 2016 Report Share Posted March 22, 2016 Has anyone else noticed the distribution of scores seems to be lower compared to last years Non-maritime waitlist? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest09 Posted March 22, 2016 Author Report Share Posted March 22, 2016 I agree.. there likely are people on the waitlist with higher scores, they just might not have posted it. Before this year I was on premed101 frequently but never posted anything.. but the average scores for OOP's accepted certainly wasn't low haha..

NewDirection Posted March 22, 2016 Report Share Posted March 22, 2016 According to one poster, the average total OOP score in 2014 was 86. Does anybody know what it was in 2015? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mbed11 Posted March 22, 2016 Report Share Posted March 22, 2016 79 or 80 last year - I could check but I am pretty sure its close to that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

101011 Posted April 8, 2016 Report Share Posted April 8, 2016 Has anyone gathered any information about waitlist movement? Or do we only expect movement starting in late May? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NewDirection Posted April 8, 2016 Report Share Posted April 8, 2016 I don't see much reason for movement before that, I guess unless somebody who is OOP waitlisted at Dal accepts at MUN or any other school that sends out offers before May 10th.

neuro550 Posted May 11, 2016 Report Share Posted May 11, 2016 Is the anticipated wait list movement making anyone else prehypertensive, or is it just me? Also, any notes on when the movement normally occurs (i.e. one week after offers, vs. one month after offers)? I'm guessing the admissions staff will be coursing through acceptances over the next 48 hours or so given that the Ontario schools just released their offers yesterday. My apologies in advance to anyone who thought this meant the list had already started moving! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest09 Posted May 11, 2016 Author Report Share Posted May 11, 2016 Checking back through the accepted/waitlisted/rejected thread, people started posting about getting off the OOP Waitlist on May 28 and I think Ontario offers went out on the 12th or somewhere around there. So I'd assume at least a week or two unfortunately... So much waiting! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ON offers came out yesterday, and we have until May 24th to decide (and decline other schools if so), so it might move starting this week and likely lots in late may/early June!
