rejection suny upstate

Waiting to hear from Iowa! Haven't heard from them yet....
Btwn rej from mayo Florida.. Expected as they I.v only 27 graduates a year for their 3 seats! And bat SUNY upstate.. I hv I.v from them in last week of October along with prelim.

@smartneuro, I'm surprised to hear that they mentioned this in the email. I guess the numbers in the FREIDA are off too, since it mentions they IV about 60 for 5 positions. So, they plan to put almost 80 people on the IV waitlist? I guess they might not have invited 150 yet. I hope to get an IV there too...

Rej Iowa

@guru, i hope so too. probably we'll meet u on iv
how can u find these data on FREIDA?

Hey buddy, you can check it under the "General Information" tab in each program, hope that helps How many IV's do you have so far? I have 5 so far...

Although, I do have lot more rejections too

Has anyone here heard from Methodist in TX?

Hey guys...I have interview at University of Tennessee on 5th November...today I got a mail from Ohio state university for an interview on 5th November...they dont have any other date...
Also in UT,...they are all full....no more options...
what do u guys suggest ?
Thanks !!

Nitin sorry to hear about that tough predicament. From those two, choose one that you want to really IV at, and the other one I would say ask the PC if she can put you in a waitlist for another date, so if anything opens up you have a spot (explain to her the situation).

The above is my opinion, because that's what I would have done given the tough situation (instead of canceling you still have that hope that you might be able to squeeze in both IV's). Giving you my honest opinion. Maybe others can chip in too with their opinions (come on friends, we are here to help each other out, help him out).
