Matched to McGovern and so so grateful!!!!
just prayed for ya!! ♥♥♥♥First, congrats to everyone that matched!!!! Yall are gonna kill it!!
Second, no match here so now I pray to the WL gods to give me a chance
You are a champion. Proud of you for continuing on❤️ I hope the WL pans outNo match, no OOS II :/
Feeling super dejected right now, was really hoping the work I've done the past 4 years and 3.9 SMP/519 was enough to carry my undergrad.
Fingers crossed on waitlist movements from the 2 interviews but not counting on it.
Just gotta pick myself back up over the weekend, get started working on next cycle and hope that the scribing/research this year is enough to push me over next time
Please do not feel dejected about anything. Everything works out for good at the end of the day. Trust me, someday you will look at this situation and use it to motivate yourself. This is my second time applying as well and I have just made peace with myself that the story has not ended unless I give up. Just keep having faith and holding on. Every one of us is here today because we have not given up.No match, no OOS II :/

Matched Texas tech Lubbock! Huge congrats to everyone and thank you to my SDN family! To everyone who hasn’t matched- hang in there, I believe in you! Much love to everyone!
Wait what? I’m sorry to hear that! They sent you a rejection today?McGovern (my #1 with LOI) already let me know that I will not be offered a waitlist position 😂😂
Guess I don't have to sit around waiting... UTMB here I come hahah
Haha they did. Not a traditional post-ii rejection but they explicitly let me know that I wouldn't be offered a waitlist position.Wait what? I’m sorry to hear that! They sent you a rejection today?
I didn’t know they did that. But respectable so they don’t have people on edge for longer. Best of luck at utmb!! Sounds like a great program full of cool pplHaha they did. Not a traditional rejection but they explicitly let me know that I wouldn't be offered a waitlist position.
I didn't either tbh ahha, but yeah I'm kinda thankful that I can just process that it's not a possibility and put my focus into my match school. Thank you so much!I didn’t know they did that.

Thank you for sharingView attachment 382685
For those curious, this is what I received.
@mrm123 said they received it too after they matched to UTSW but ranked UTH higher.View attachment 382685

yeah thats exactly what mine said@mrm123 said they received it too after they matched to UTSW but ranked UTH higher.
Yes I think everyone did sadlyAnyone get that baylor waitlist email earlier?
Waitlist acceptance the same day as match day, holy congrats!! Do you mind me asking what your #1 school was?Sorry if this is dumb. But I matched to my #2 this morning, then got off the waitlist to my #1 a few hours later. Is it okay if I accept both and hold 2 seats for right now? I plan to withdraw the one I’m not going to soon but just wanted to make sure. Just feeling in shock rn
You are supposed to withdraw from your match school once you have everything settled with the waitlist school. You shouldnt withdraw until you are satisified everything is in order.Sorry if this is dumb. But I matched to my #2 this morning, then got off the waitlist to my #1 a few hours later.

Yes @astridase11 you can temporarily hold the 2 spots while you talk & decide.Sorry if this is dumb. But I matched to my #2 this morning, then got off the waitlist to my #1 a few hours later.

matched to my #1 but still got an email for a waitlist spot at my #4 (mcgovern). anyhow, i declined it so hopefully this’ll move someone else up!
yeah that’s how I thought it worked too, so I was totally surprised by the email!I thought people who match to their #1 are automatically withdrawn. If not, that immensely impacts WL movement.
Thank you so much!! Not at all! My #1 school was TCOM. I matched to my #2 SHSU this morning before getting off the waitlist. They were my only two interviews though so I’m in shock and just so thankful 🥹Waitlist acceptance the same day as match day, holy congrats!! Do you mind me asking what your #1 school was?

Yep SHSU got it right!! Not sure what’s going on with the other schools right nowView attachment 382697
It should work like that. I got this email from SHSU saying my app was withdrawn since I matched higher
A few of you are getting WL invitations from schools that should have dropped off your radar because you have matched to a school you had ranked higher.Huh this is interesting.
Already did this with UT TYLER as soon as I got the email, out of courtesy…A few of you are getting WL invitations from schools that should have dropped off your radar because you have matched to a school you had ranked higher.
If this happens to you, send off a quick email to that school declining to be on the WL.
I’ve seen this today from some of y’all mainly from Tyler & McGovern.
Any other culprits?
Congrats!! You’re gonna be an amazing doctorThank you so much!! Not at all! My #1 school was TCOM. I matched to my #2 SHSU this morning before getting off the waitlist. They were my only two interviews though so I’m in shock and just so thankful 🥹
Very well said ❤️To my friends who didn’t match, please take something from this.
I understand how you feel. I know that some person’s words on an online forum isn’t
going to magically change your feelings. I know that nothing I can do will change your outcome. But… I can tell you that my heart breaks for you. My roommate didn’t match and it had been so hard to hear that. He is absolutely brilliant. But, I told him “you can either let this moment define you or you can define this moment.”
The truth is, this will not be the only time in your life you’ll get rejected or get told no or whatever it may be. I get it, this is a big one, but this isn’t the only one. Spoiler alert: your life is way more valuable than what an admissions committee says. You are so unique and so much more than a yes or a no.
Life has its hiccups. Man, I had a 503 MCAT the SECOND time I took it. I was told by a dean of admissions (at a Texas school) I should go into a masters program. I used it as fuel. Use this as your fuel. Chase your dream and don’t look back.
Thank the people who have been there with you. Tell them you tried your hardest and I know they’ll be proud of you. I’m proud of you! Keep chasing your dream, because one day, I’ll be calling you a fellow doctor.
Love y’all. Keep your head up.
I think they came out pretty late last year (2 weeks?).Did anyone get waitlisted for UT Southwestern??Have you received an email??
This is helpful. Thank youI think they came out pretty late last year (2 weeks?).
