Complete mid July haven’t heard a peep and I am also IS. Would love to go here but I think chances are pretty low at this point
why make me wait almost 9 months to probably reject me lol
You should be getting a summer break, during the phase 1 debrief I was in earlier in the year it said the incoming class would have 6-8 weeks of break. I'm not sure if that has changed or not, but there should be a break.
was this the 2023 calendar? i know this year is the first year we’re starting a month early so maybe everything is moved up a month and hopefully we get out may 28 rather than june 28
The current M1 class will be getting out before Memorial Day, but I am not sure about the incoming class for next year. Since it's more of an accelerate curriculum it is possible they may get out later, but I'd bet (and hope) that a summer break is still built in
honestly, I might just send a letter of intent regardless. at this point, idk what else we have to lose
They accept both in the portal. However LOI is historically used for those who are WL post interview and have another acceptance elsewhere so ur basically saying “I really want to go here and will turn down my other acceptance to do so.” Some people send them without having another acceptance but I’d imagine that would carry even less weight than an LOI already does. I’m not sure where you stand but I wouldn’t send an LOI without having already interviewed.
What days were available
I am a reapplicant who got in this cycle and I understand how you are feeling. I am sure there are corrupt sides of this process, whether it's nepotism or whatever, but I think the majority of "unfairness" in this process comes from demand/supply ratio. There are so many people who want to be doctors while the positions stay limited every year. Two or three cycles ago, rosalind franklin admitted that they could not review everyone's applications and that got me thinking, huh I wonder if the incident happens more than we think. This is why I think luck plays a role...and we just need to work on our objective aspects such as grades, ECs, and essays to somehow maximize the luck.
All I could gather after years of seeing people enter into this admissions process and having just gone through it myself has been that it is just hilariously random and often makes no sense at all. It is all just a matter of statistics. There are so many people that want to become doctors, and so little seats. Honestly I think it is far more straightforward for schools than we make it out to be. Either we are competent to become doctors or we are not, and it is basically just a lottery system among those who are. Maybe my interviewer thought my hair looked weird, had some irrational bias against me, or took something I said the wrong way. None of these things are really in our control. But one thing that is in our control is our grit. You've got it, my friend. Please keep your head up, future doctor! Open to PM's if you'd like
Congrats! Did they give you the same dates?
Yup, just March 30th and 31st as far as I saw!
So that just means we need to neurotically check our emails lmfao, congrats though! Thanks for the update!
Did you send any update letters? Congrats!!!!!!
I’m patiently waiting too /:Still haven't heard anything since the update in January, praying for an II this week
Honestly no, I'm under the impression the IIs in the past few days have been in response to other people turning down the invite so the odds of there being much more turnover in the next couple days is low imo (but not 0% tbf)
It is very chill. I had two interviews, one faculty and one student. They are open-file interviews and resembled the other medical school interviews that I have done this cycle. From what I remember, reviewing your primary and secondary application should be plenty of preparation, and it was very conversational. PM me if you have a specific question I can help you with.
Appreciate it, thank you!
congrats! when were you complete and what time did u get the invite?
