I Just noticed a minor grammatical error in my submission and so I naturally consulted my inner optimist to calm my neuroses.
Inner optimist: "Don't worry, you never had a chance to begin with."
Hahaha. Your inner optimist is brutal.

For Dartmouth, do you also have to fill out an MD-PhD Statement of Interest Form, when do you do that?

I filled mine out after I submitted the secondary. Then you just download it and email it to the admissions office.
 
First round of IIs went out on the second wednesday in august last year, time to buckle up.

Thanks. I did not get my secondary yet. I assume you access that form when you have access to the secondary, right?

That's correct. They're just looking for the graduate programs you want to apply to and a list of 8-12 faculty members from those departments that interest you.
 
Lol I just watched the pickle episode of Rick and Morty today. So funny!

How do you know they're a week behind?
He is saying this because AMCAS opened 1 week later in June than it did last year
 
Actually, AMCAS opened a week later last year on June 7th. This year was June 1st.
They are referring to the fact that applications were transmitted from AMCAS to medical schools one week later this year than they were last year. Something like June 24th in 2016 vs. June 30th in 2017.

I just got an email from the office of inclusion congratulating me on my interview invitation except I never got an interview invite and nothing on my status indicates I have an interview.

Did anyone get a confirmation email after scheduling II with the admissions assistant?

I received the confirmation e-mail today at about 10AM. Sent the request for my interview date on Thursday evening so it was a little less than 48 business hours as specified in the e-mail.
 
Same here. Got the confirmation email today after requesting a date on Thursday. Though it seems like they don't have any student hosts listed right now.

For those with II, what are you planning on doing for housing? There are no student hosts on the page so far, so I'm debating if I should wait a bit to see if any names pop up, or if waiting will just be a lost cause.

Yeah I'm not sure either. I might just spring for a hotel even though it's pricey. I'm flying from the other side of the country so getting a good night's sleep would probably be worth it to me.
