3 straight years to the wait list. I feel like I’m in some sick Groundhog Day/Final Destination crossover episode where no matter what I do leads to the same exact place, unreal. You can’t make this stuff up.

This will be me with Ottawa on May 8th.

[jtown]

Am I the only one who hasn't gotten a ranking for the wait-list? If so, is this a bad thing?

Nope.... 

Hopefully soon. I’m looking at the positives, all this stress is making my apartment spotless since I clean under stress.

Can we meet up to see what happens when crossover episodes crossover? Pretty sure it’s some sort of black hole. 

[SpeedyPotato]

Waitlisted as well.. this sucks

[iwantitsobad]

Any IP still waiting? I can't help but think this means a rejection

I think Groundhog Day and Final Destination have already crossovered: Punxsutawney Phil has been in a terrible gruesome car accident

Me too - any idea if any OOP have been rejected?

Hopefully! If its indeed a manual process, we shouldn't expect a response from 12-1: 30 PM I'm guessing since they're on lunch.

Refused - checked 1.5 hours ago  Pretty bummed about the final outcome; I was quite hopeful about getting in. Will try to hold my head high and continue to be grateful for having had the opportunity to interview. 

All the best to those who got accepted! Cherish these moments and remember this feeling when things toughen up in medical school. Met some great applicants earlier this year and wish we could have been classmates. 

[t0ny]

Waitlist for IP comes at a later date, I believe about a month in.

 

Edit: This was last year, might not be applicable this year

Do you mean that if you are waitlist and IP, you won't hear now? 

thanks

You should definitely hold your head high! I am sorry to hear about the final outcome. Remember, you have made it so far in the process! Take some time to be around loved ones right now and when you are feeling a bit better, reflect on your interview. See how you can improve for next year. I can see how badly you want this, so I know you will not give up until you make it happen.

You will hear now in terms of being "waitlisted" but your rank on the list will come out later! 

[LUUO]

It's noon. Is it safe to assume for those who haven't heard back that decisions will resume coming out after 1:30 (after their lunch break)? I need a break from refreshing Minerva. 

[Soon2BeMD]

Did any IP get their waitlist rank?

Thank you for your words of encouragement, and thoughtful advice  Kind of hard to reflect on the positives or way forward right now, but will certainly engage in more reflection once I feel better. All the best to you! I hope you get your acceptance soon enough  

GL to those will waiting to hear back!

Yup, 2nd year on wait list for me!..I feel the same so I hope knowing that you're not the only one gives you a sense of comfort lol. 
Just keep at it if you really want this! I think people in our position eventually get in. I believe I have what it takes - and a school will see that in time. 
Chin up. Cheers to overcoming groundhog day at some point
