II here as well

 

[rplanishek]

I wouldn't necessarily assume a rejection, I think they prioritize higher GPA/MCAT applicants first before doing a more comprehensive assessment of "lower stat" applicants! This is just a theory though haha.

Not sure how true that is, seeing as someone who got a II invite today had a 502 MCAT

Haha yeah my evidence was strictly anecdotal... perhaps they had a really high GPA in conjunction? I'm beyond trying to figure out the rhyme or reason that admission committees use throughout this process

If I submit my aacomas app this week will I be considered to late of an applicant?

Not in the slightest

Not in the slightest

Oh ok I’m only familiar with TMDSAS and AMCAS timelines so I’ve been trying to consider what would be “applying too late” for AACOMAS

 

[AlphaStudent]

Does anyone know the post interview acceptance rate?

 

[Rd1546]

I know it's fairly competitive, with their website saying there are typically 45-50 seats per class. I haven't seen a percentage yet tho!

Good to know! Thank you

 

[medandmotors]

For those of you who received II, when was your file marked complete and how long was it until you got your II? My file was marked complete yesterday, 7/16, and I'm just curious as to when I would hear back. Thanks

It's about 50%. I remember seeing on their website about 600 interview and 300 get accepted.

I also have a lower MCAT and received one as well today! They also have an in-state "bias" if I recall but it's not really that crazy (hopefully). Good luck to everyone waiting and anticipating~ the stress and anticipation is real ahh

A day after AACOMAS received my MCAT scores. I think they have a pre-screen.

Never mind, secondary received! They are taking longer now to send them, but still pretty fast

 

[AlphaStudent]

Can any current students provide their experience attending this school? I would like to know peoples pros and cons and just an overall opinion of the school. Also, does anyone know when UIW's comlex/usmle scores will be released?

 

[Goldy$$$]
