Withdrew a while back but didn’t get the chance to post - best of luck to those on the WL!!
Nothing yet that I've heard of...Any movement?
Anyone have access to FB or groupme? feel like that’s the only way to gauge movement
191 members? Yeesh😭
Back in October I asked you if you can ask admissions to give me an II and I guess you were able to work your magic, so in case you are still on sdn these days I was wondering if you could ask them to let me in off the wl. thanks <3Omg yes absolutely, getting right on that 😂
Group me is down to 113. Maybe QUOTE]
Any groupme updates?
2 people joined the GroupMe today so it seems like WL movement is starting!
130 including admins or 144 total in the groupme?130 in the GroupMe, 14 are admin. Admin removed a bunch of people last week so I'm pretty sure these are the people who PTE'd Hopkins
Now at 132 total, with 14 of those being admin130 including admins or 144 total in the groupme?
Damn 😔; sounds like the movement is about over. Thanks for the update.Now at 132 total, with 14 of those being admin
Yeah probably but during my interview I talked to someone who got off the WL 2 weeks before classes started so anything is possible!Damn 😔; sounds like the movement is about over. Thanks for the update.
Congrats! Did you send a letter of intent?Just got the A!!!
Not intent, but an update along with expressed interest!Congrats! Did you send a letter of intent?
Do you happen to know how they accept updates from people who are on the waitlist? I couldn't find a general admissions email, nor does it seem that the portal accepts updates.Not intent, but an update along with expressed interest!

I definitely didnt have the best scores and am below their MSAR 10% (as well as many other schools). I actually didnt even think I shouldve applied because of my insecurity with metrics, but I still wanted to believe that narratives matter in the dehumanizing app process. IIRC, some schools actually dont report their top and bottom 10% on msar, at least per a friend with info from admissions at HMS, Stanford etc.Maybe I'm just salty, but I think it's laughable how hopkins can:
"criticize the (US News ranking) system’s overemphasis on standardized test scores and college grade point averages."
when essentially half their class gets a perfect score on the MCAT
I’m hoping they let us know soon. CTE for my school is in the next week and I would hate to live with the “what if” once I have to withdraw the waitlist :/.I been watching the member count on FB like a crazy person.
Seems like not much is changing anymore. No chance here, huh? Does anyone know if they give a final decision when waitlist movement is over?
great positivity, it seems Hopkins chose wisely! wishing you the best future physicianI definitely didnt have the best scores and am below their MSAR 10% (as well as many other schools).

Ultimately I was rejected alotta places but Hopkins took a chance on me and I'm super grateful. I know its sample n=1, and I also hate the metrics game, but thought I should share my experiences as a box and whisker tail end matriculant. No matter where you go, I hope you get to explore and do what really matters to you, keep your chin up and fingers crossed for WL movement!
