According to MSAR, ~200 are placed on the waitlist, and ~100 of those are accepted later on. So, there's about a 50% of being accepted from the waitlist.

I used UW’s Ethics in Medicine website (link below) and read through all of the topics to prepare for any ethical scenarios. I also used chat GPT to ask me sample questions and then give feedback on my answers, I thought it was pretty helpful

As long as you follow the typical MMI prep, you’ll be fine! They were incredibly friendly

also just withdrew my A, good luck to people on AL!
Just to clarify but once we are on the AL, we don't have to do anything to confirm being on the AL right??

To my knowledge, yes. Around April 15th, they typically send out a questionnaire to ask if you still want to be on the alternate list or withdraw.
Praying for waitlist movement soon 😭🙏🙏 Albany pleaseee

If anyone is fairly confident they’ll be going to AMC and wants to chat before the official GroupMe comes out, feel free to send me a message.
