Let me guess, you were complete yesterday, but haven't heard anything in 12 hours and are getting nervous?

How do you like the school so far? How's the curriculum with the learning groups?

Changed my username, just letting you know so no one gets confused haha. But I absolutely love it! I love my ALG group, I also think it's a good way to learn for me personally. I think its a great break from traditional lectures

THank's for the feedback. Is it all learning groups or are there some lectures as well? It's pretty much just another name for PBL correct?

There are 6 hours of traditional lectures per week. There's also some other "lecture" type sessions, such as application sessions which can be labs, TBL, or lectures. You could call it PBL, we get a case per week and as the week goes on, more information about the case comes out

Does anyone know if they're still sending out secondaries? I was verified late July, so I'm wondering if it's too early to assume a silent rejection

II just a moment ago...SO HAPPY that they would give me an opportunity. Really love this school and everything about it just fits me personally.

Just contributing back:
Complete late July. LizzyM 67-69. NJ resident. Non URM.
 
II just now! My first interview, and I'm stoked. Got put on hold at put places a few weeks ago, got a rejection last week and then another rejection yesterday, so this definitely was a huge pick me up. Good luck everyone else.

Yah, I was complete on 7/27. It was super silent for a while, so they should be sending more out in the ensuing weeks.

Just curious on how the safety of this school is since it is located in Camden, NJ

the security is very good at the school. someone is there 24/7 and they will walk you or drive you anywhere in camden. there is also security until 10 p.m. (not school security) that walks up and down broadway (the street the school is on). it is camden, so it will never be completely safe, but i live in camden and i usually feel rather safe (for being in camden)

JUST got a secondary. Verified 8/4
Happy about it though. Very happy.
 
I submitted my AMCAS app on 7/22 and just got a secondary invite back today. I know "you miss every shot you don't take" but any thoughts on my odds of getting at least an II at this point? I'm OOS, 3.6 cgpa, 3.65 sgpa, 507 MCAT and a lot of volunteering/EC's

If you can see yourself going here, fill it out. If not, don't.

They obviously liked something enough on your app to send you a secondary. You literally have nothing to lose except some money which is minuet in the grand scheme of things.

I am totally making this up but I think they just started sending OOS secondaries. I received one as well.

Thanks! Yea, I got the secondary a couple days ago and I'd been verified end of July, so I think they're still just going through everything.
 
II yesterday..will be withdrawing soon! Complete mid july
