Thanks! Submitted 5/16, transmitted 5/24Congrats!! When did u submit your primary
Congrats!!!Received secondary around noon today! (1° submitted 06/15, transmitted 07/29)
Congrats!!! You’re giving hope to all of us who submitted early and are still waiting on that secondary, seems like it’s not necessarily in order of submission.Thanks! Submitted 5/16, transmitted 5/24
Same with meGot my receipt of application on June 4th, but my LORs weren’t in until July 21st. Still no secondary.
Exact same situation here, same dates for both. Got II’s from 4 TX schools but no secondary from Dell yet.Got my receipt of application on June 4th, but my LORs weren’t in until July 21st. Still no secondary.
No Dell Secondary either. Wysdoc had said they release them throughout the cycle so who knows. Their screening process for secondaries is apparently pretty intense. If it makes it easier I know someone who was accepted at Dell and only got their secondary in October.Exact same situation here, same dates for both. Got II’s from 4 TX schools but no secondary from Dell yet.
lol would this apply to people who haven't received a secondary yet either? ://For those who didnt receive an early II, i wouldn’t worry. It was heavily emphasized throughout my interview that there is NO preference given to people who interview first. Someone who interviews very late in the cycle has every opportunity to be ranked highly.
Did you file them yet? Dell is not automatic.Hi all, quick question.
I submitted TMDSAS on 6/16, but only just got verified and transmitted as there was an issue with my residency claim. It all worked out and I was granted residency status, and just received secondaries. Will this affect my chances of receiving II if my LizzyM is an 81?
Received an interview invite over the phone today! Super excited!!
Thank you! 7/10Congrats! When did you complete the secondary?
There is no confirmation email. I emailed Dell the next day just to confirm and they said it was received so no need to fret, they just don't send out confirmation emails after the secondary is complete.Can someone confirm or deny whether you receive a confirmation after you submit your secondary?
Seems that there were some at the beginning of the month, but they are still looking at pretty early submissions.Has anyone received a secondary this month?
Yeah, I received one on the 5thHas anyone received a secondary this month?
When were you complete?Yeah, I received one on the 5th
My primary was transmitted on 7/29When were you complete?
No way 🫠🫠🫠 I'm out here waiting for a secondary after two months. I'm going crazyGot secondary invite yesterday (8/19), transmitted 8/17,
I am currently a MS1 at Dell. Applications are reviewed throughout the cycle. There is really no set pattern for secondary/interviews, you just have to be patient. If you have any other questions, I would be happy to answer them the best I can!I’m feeling the same way. Has anyone tried reaching out to them? They said applications would be reviewed repeatedly throughout the admissions cycle but I just want to know if I've been screened out
You can read about their process on their page @boomertexas and @Monstera_deliciosa, I linked it in this earlier post #14I’m feeling the same way. Has anyone tried reaching out to them?

would you mind sharing what dates they offered?Thank you! 7/10
I hope you have applied broadly across the nation. With 78 LM score and URM status, you probably are competitive at most places. My guess is you are already in at Dell and this is a recruitment session.received an invite to a Sunday Session (post interview) as URM. I have a prior engagement at that time; would not attending affect my chances of an acceptance?
Plenty of people still pick a Texan program due to cost or wanting to be closer to family. I really doubt the Texan schools would write them off because they have too good of an application.I hope you have applied broadly across the nation.

Edit: I see that you have received IIs from some T10/T5 schools already. So Texas schools know you ain't coming.
I'm not sure if I'm allowed to say the exact dates, but they were both in Septemberwould you mind sharing what dates they offered?
I didnt say they dont interview and admit them, only that they are not actually expecting them to enroll.Plenty of people still pick a Texan program due to cost or wanting to be closer to family. I really doubt the Texan schools would write them off because they have too good of an application.

These are recruitment events and to make you feel comfortable about the school lest you choose UTSW or Baylor over them.Same. Also wondering…
What about McGovern? LolThese are recruitment events and to make you feel comfortable about the school lest you choose UTSW or Baylor over them.
Schools are always trying to compete with other schools they might be losing students they want. The pecking order in Texas at the moment is Baylor, UTSW, Dell, then McGovern, UTMB, Long, A&M and so on. If Dell gets a rank, they could be number 1.What about McGovern? Lol
Could you elaborate on why people are ranking Dell over McGovern? I'm set to interview at McGovern after interviewing at Dell. While Dell seemed fantastic, I don't see how people could rank it above McGovern and the TMC. This is probably the most difficult decision for me, rank-wise. I feel like the small class size is playing a part?Schools are always trying to compete with other schools they might be losing students they want.

I don’t get it either. Unless I had something really creative and important in mind to do during the Dell “discovery year” I would rather attend a traditional school and get more basic education and more clinical rotations.Could you elaborate on why people are ranking Dell over McGovern?

Dell is a different type of school compared all other schools in Texas. It started with a curriculum that made them a peer of Harvard when the school started as almost the first couple of schools with one year classes 6 years ago and now others like Baylor are just catching up starting next year. It gives students a lot of bandwidth to get another degree, do a whole year of research or do a year of rotations in competitive specialization areas to which one might want to apply. They had no track record until they matched their first set of residents and now that they have a track record, it makes an easier pick when people can see it is not a risk as a new school. I also heard they have some of the highest step averages although I dont have the numbers handy.Could you elaborate on why people are ranking Dell over McGovern?

Do they tell this to the interviewing students?#1 Reason. Unless it has changed, students eat for free at Dell's main hospital.
