It was also 3.5 weeks ago! :)
👏🏻 I sent mine in on 12/28/21, nothing 😕 do you mind sharing if you are OOS or IS? Strong ties and stats?
Edit: This II I’m responding to was 1/4/22 to avoid any confusion.

???? I was just pointing out that the post you were responding to was reporting an II on 1/4. It is now 1/28, and people are speculating whether Feinberg is still sending IIs. Your post, which quoted the person reporting the II, might lead some to believe that the II came today.

Also, what do you mean by "I sent mine in on 12/28/20"? Sent what? And are you talking about last month, or a year ago?

Your post started misleading the audience here…. Didn’t expect someone not appreciating congratulations message. Only when I found out you pretended to be @ezsigh

Is there any type of facebook group or group chat for accepted applicants?

Dang, just got the pre-II R after sending in an update last week. Complete sometime in August. LM 73, OOS. Really sad, I still don’t have any IIs and don’t know what’s wrong with me :(

Yeah same, I guess it's a good sign to not have an R yet, but I can't tell if we actually have a shot? This is at a handful of schools that have been sending pre-II Rs but I'm still waiting for any news

Anyone remember when January interviews are supposed to hear back? I interviewed 01/25 and am wondering if it was Feb or March when we hear back
 
Congrats to those accepted! And godspeed to those deferred. Hoping for good news for you soon enough.

Thank you for your time!
1. This is a bit of a more general question but how did you feel your transition was to medical school at Feinberg? Does the school do anything special to smooth the transition? Did you ever feel overwhelmed in the beginning or was it somewhat like your undergraduate experience?
2. I was wondering if you could talk a bit about the exams. I'm honestly not too fluent in the vocabulary but it's to my understanding that some schools have "soft" in-house exams versus other schools have NBME-style exams? Also what are the pass cutoffs around usually? Do you know if it's common to have to remediate?

Thank you in advance!
