Just got an II today!!! OOS. So, I have a question, in the email it says its a virtual interview, but in the portal it says it will be in Miami. Which is it? Also I applied for the MD and MD-MPH programs and they said I am being interviewed for both but there is only one scroll down bar for dates under the MD-MPH one, does that mean its one interview for both programs?

Would you mind sharing what interview dates were available? I'm wondering how far ahead they're scheduling

The two options I had were Februrary 14th and March 14th and I got to pick which date I preferred and I put Feb 14th and a day later that I was confirmed for that date. So they must have more spots for Feb 14th

I also had my first choice day confirmed, seems to be the trend
 
Just received an II! Very surprised, I was scored in September. Many dates available starting this Friday

Is there anyone else who still isn't even marked as scored at this point? Is it worth it to reach out to admissions and ask what's up

I haven’t been scored either. Same status since first day. Sadly, last cycle some people were never even scored. Some people reached out with updates and were told they hadn’t even been reviewed yet :(

What is your status?
 
I believe they said April 8 at my recent interview. It sounded like they’re trying to do something in-person, but it might end up just being hydrid or totally online.

Interviewed mid October… I applied to MD/MBA and was accepted to MBA, but haven’t heard anything about MD. It’s been months at this point! Anyone else in the same boat? Any idea what might be going on? I haven’t gotten a waitlist email or anything… so it feels like I’ve been forgotten after my interview/

Anyone who received a II/got the A open to sharing their CASPer quartile? I'm really curious how it affects admissions and there's almost no info online

If they are like every other school, the answers are going to be all over the place, so they are not going to help you at all. As at every other school, CASPer is a tiny part of an entire package, and there will be 1st quartile people who receive As and 4th quartile people who don't receive IIs., just like there are people with 509s who receive As and others with 520s who don't even get scored. Good luck with this!

I was second quartile & was accepted early in the cycle. I really suspect it didn't matter much, but who's to say. My stats were slightly above average so maybe that compensated.
Point being, it didn't seem to hold me back. It's likely a small piece of a larger puzzle here.

For those of you who sent pre-ii updates, did the admissions office reply to confirm that this information was added to your file?

At first I didn't get a confirmation, then I sent a follow to make sure they got it and they replied to that

Did they call you for an interview invite or email?
 
I interviewed in early January, but I haven’t gotten an email that says I’m on the waitlist. Is this the case for anyone else?

Does anyone know about the research opportunities available for medical students. For example, are medical students able to get involved in their research on paralysis and other neurological diseases at their Louis Pope LIFE Center?

I never had an issue finding research, but I'm not neuro so i don't know those specifics. I'd be surprised if there weren't at least some opportunities you could network your way into. I found that once i got to medical school, people were incredibly welcoming and happy to meet with me even if I just cold emailed them about their work. They may not always have a specific project opportunity for you, but they can often point you towards someone who might.
 
Ready to get destroyed again!!

Seriously, it's so frustrating. Digging around in past posts, it seems that later on in the spring when WL movement starts happening, Dr. Weisman might be willing to say if you're likely to get off the WL?

idk if this happened to anyone else but one of my interviewers was kind of rude/hostile and I initially wanted to just put it aside and hope that I'd get an A (interviewed october) but at this point I think it's affecting my chances of getting in, so now I'm debating on reporting it. but i don't know how receptive they'd be to this. any advice?? feeling stuck :cryi:

Wait for your decision and then go from there I think. Don't want to sink your chances if it was a stress interview and you were going to get an A

TBH, if there is an issue with an interview, I think the time to report is ASAP, not months later when it looks like you might be trying to use it to influence an outcome.

Do whatever you think is best, but a report months after the fact will not be given the credibility that an immediate report would, BEFORE you knew that you would not be receiving an A before February. At this point, I don't think it would help you or hurt you, but if you want to file a report to hopefully help others in the future, then you should definitely go ahead.

Just got placed on the alternate list, which I assume is the same thing as a waitlist right? I’m planning on sending a email to maintain my position on the waitlist and I was wondering if I should include that Miami is my top choice? Thanks
