Do u think some dent places will open up cause people who might’ve accepted it and now been offered med might switch or nah

That tends to happen so yeah.

Anyone have a clue (from previous years) how much movement there generally is on the waitlist for med after 2nd round offers are out?

depends on the year, last year i had a friend in the top 25 after second round and would estimate the waitlist moved by about 20 places (he was in the top 5 when it closed). keep in mind the waitlist moves depending on offers to other subcategories as well (e.g. postgrad, rural)

I'm in the top 5 on the med waitlist after second round offers were released. Do you think I have a chance of getting in? Do they release more offers in a third round or one by one as positions become available?

I believe they roll out instead of a "third round" etc. And yes I do believe you have a chance of getting in.

was your friend general category? And were they in the waitlist for med or dent thanks.

is this second round for med? if you don't mind me asking, did you get the offer?

Did you get an offer?

Hi sorry for the late reply I was busy today, I believe it was for dent and med and yes I did get an offer

Does there tend to be more movement on the dent or the med waiting list? Would it be med cause more people applying for it in general?

It really just depends on the cohort. Imho just email the Uni about your place in the waiting list after every week then if you get top 5, start looking at evision maybe once a day.

Are there separate waiting lists for different subcategories for med or is everyone on the same waitlist?

Got an offer for Dent with a 90.6% average. Good luck to everyone else on the waitlist!

Was that a second round offer? Or one today. They’ve told me I’m in the top five on the waitlist and I’m just praying I get in

Second round offer. You've got a solid chance with 89.45%. Best of luck!

Hi!
Would anyone be willing to share their lecture slides from chem191 please? Thank you

Mate people are worrying regarding offers here atm, not chem 191 lectures

 

[feif]

A bit of a desperate question but does anyone ever get offers if they have been straight out declined from Dent but were really close to the waitlist cutoff?

Wouldn't they just settle for a lower cohort intake in that case? Especially given the over-intake of dent applicants over the past couple of years.

If you don't mind sharing, what was your average? (I got an offer while waitlisted on 9th Jan with a 90.6%)

Hi all, hope you're enjoying your break before heading back to Otago.

I'm tutoring chem191 at my old college this year, and was wondering if anyone has pdfs of Chem191 from 2019 I could get access to?

As far as I’m aware, being declined and not being on the wait list would mean can’t get an offer. If you’re after a definite answer, though, you could contact the admissions office directly and ask them the question.

Got an offer off the dentistry waitlist this morning (I was in the top 5) with an average of 89.45% so so happy!! Good luck to all those left on the waitlist!
