Does anyone know if the post-interview student Q&A has any impact on the admission decision? I signed up months ago and totally spaced after my interview and didn’t get on it 😓

OOS but still waiting
Me too. They told my group that because they were going through the accreditation process it would be a little later than normal but they did say mid-November (which I'd say it is currently) ;-;

OOS interviewed oct 28, told we'd have something by Thanksgiving. Anyone who interviewed this day heard back yet?
 
Post-II WL! Complete 7/8, interviewed 10/8. OOS so not necessarily surprised.

OOS II just now as well , was placed on the interview waitlist in September
Just looked at the post-ii acceptance document (18% for OOS) and this thread with all OOS being waitlisted, now I'm not so sure if I should attend the interview. I was initially excited about the school

The most honest answer I can give — there’s really no telling. As a reapplicant who’s applied to 70+ schools across two years (including this school twice and am currently on WL), I’m none the wiser with regards to what schools want. But, I’ve had more success this year fortunately, and what I believe to be the general formula for getting into med school is some combination of talent + grit + luck. For me, grit and luck have helped a lot.

Hmm do you mind me asking if your stats were comparable to mine or better ? I’m just trying to compare because this is my ideal school .

From my experience/interaction with other students at WVU and my own interview experience at other schools, the later in the season you interview the more competitive it is to get in because a lot of spots have been filled. WVU also waitlists a majority of their OOS interviewees post interview rather than immediate acceptance (not sure about post interview rejections), even those who interview early. But don’t give up hope!!! WVU has a lot of OOS post interview waitlist movement

When does that waitlist movement usually happen? closer to march?
