Any movement?

I planned on calling next week

 

[mphhtf]

I couldn't wait. Just called and number 54 was taken off on the 12th that was the last. "A couple are still holding multiple spots and need to make decisions soon."

US News and World Report shows the following for last year’s Step scores:

United States Medical Licensing Exam (USMLE)
Step 1: Number of students examined 97
Step 1: Average score 239
Step 2 (Clinical Knowledge): Number of students examined 100
Step 2 (Clinical Knowledge): Average score 248

I would say these are very high scores

Besides having very high Step scores has anyone seen the new

Thanks for calling, helpful not to have to bother them so frequently haha.

Did Alison mention if this was the typical style of waitlist movement (having this lull after movement day)? Just curious because mizzou went to 60 and 74 the past two years on waitlists.

Saw it at Second Look Day. It was just an empty shell then, but it is absolutely fantastic.

She did mention that 4 or 5 people were taken off the list in June and July. Said the last person was called July 21st. Said it was a little bit different of a year but just because of the larger class size. I guess we all just have to keep our fingers crossed a little longer.

It is quite an awesome space (also saw on 2nd look). It will have all new sim equipment, lounges/kitchens on the 5th and 6th floors, an absolute beautiful view of campus, mini-fridges in the PBL labs, showers on first floor for after anatomy lab (or to save on your water bill), and its all key card locked and we get access! Muwhahahaha!!!

Recently graduated fourth year here. They gave us a tour of the new building during graduation week and it is absolutely amazing. I'm very happy they are improving the learning spaces for future classes (but also a little jealous). Good luck to you all!

 

[GotIronKnee]

I just gave my spot up this past week, so good luck to those of you still waiting!

Ouch... UM curators just raised MUSOM tuition 6%

"Along with increasing tuition for resident undergraduates on all four campuses by 2.1 percent, the board approved a variety of increases for other classes of students. On the MU campus, the only tuition increases above that rate will be in the School of Medicine, where tuition will increase 6 percent, and non-resident students of the College of Veterinary Medicine, who will pay a new surcharge of $2,500 per semester."

Has anyone called this week to check the waitlist?

A 6 % increase brings the total yearly tuition to $32 K . That is still a great value in terms of what other school's tuitions are. I have seen many others in the 45K plus range. Also, the cost of living is very reasonable vs other locations.

Has anyone received any more scholarship money other than those first ones sent out a while back? Thanks!

nope....do you think there's still a chance we can or no?

I had originally emailed Cheri Marks a while back. She seemed to think more would be distributed throughout the summer. So I guess we will see!

You should get an email from them soon about them receiving all your transcripts. I got one last night after turning in my last transcripts Monday.
