Did people w/ FAP pay the $65 fee? I got an email that my application was submitted while still on the page that was asking for card info. I don't want to pay it if I don't have to lol

Yeah, I did Your app will just say "awaiting payment" otherwise. A few folks here have emailed admissions, and they just don't accept any fee waivers.

In previous threads, I saw some people still got interviews and stuff with 1st quartile. Did you do the duet too?

Yes, I did duet too

 

[prettyinmedicine]

Yes, I did duet too

do we need to do duet? i hate questionnaires like that

 

[Tennis&soccer]

After submitting the portal says “items we received from you,” mine only shows the two statements and the photo. How do I know if the got my LORs?

[UnconfidentPremed]

Has anyone else still not received a secondary 🤣?

Hey everyone! I am working on this secondary question "Indicate the one type of medical career to which you plan to devote the majority of your professional efforts". I am interested in being an OBGYN, but I'm having a hard time choosing what area that fits into. Can anyone help me please? I think it might be one of these two.

combined general/specialty practice or
General practice (primary)

Maybe the first selection?

Thank you ! that's what I was leaning toward but I wasn't completely sure.

I have not yet. I only got the email saying they received my primary

 

[Tennis&soccer]

When are interviews typically sent out?

 

[Tennis&soccer]

It seems like last year, Meharry sent out interviews on 10/17 after sending out secondaries on 10/10. Fast turnaround. Maybe people who submitted the same day after receiving their secondary will hear back soon.

Hopefully because I submitted my secondary within one day of receipt

Can anyone confirm that their portal looks similar to mine after they have submitted everything?

yup mine looks exactly like that

 

[LeftElbow]

I added this school late, and haven't received a secondary. About how long did it take for them to send it to others?

They screen ppl for fit manually, and then they send the secondaries out in waves. I got mine a month after verification.

I think the first wave of secondaries were sent on 8/30

 

[Smileydimples]

Can we schedule CASPER after receiving the interview so we do not have to pay for it for no reason? What are y'all's thoughts on this?

 

[obgyn876]

Did anyone receive any interview invites from Meharry as yet ?

I don’t think they will review your application without it

 

[beeee**h45]

Is anyone else having issues with accessing their portal? I submitted my secondary and then had to pay the fee later (darn them being one of the only schools not honoring FAP), and can't access the link

 

[DrBlueWaters]

Did anyone apply ED?

 

[prettyinmedicine]

3 weeks since they sent out the first round of secondaries and no invite yet anyone? 🥲

No, but the first wave should be coming soon like this week or next. Last year, they sent them in a week.

scared the heck out of me when they sent another secondary invite and said disregard if you already got it

 

[obgyn876]

Wait what when did they send such email stating to disregard if you already got secondary

 

[Tennis&soccer]

Does anyone know when they usually send out II? Last year it was mid October but idk if that’s normal for Meharry.

I wonder if they are waiting to see if anything changes with the MCAT retakes that happened in September...

I was just thinking that they're probably waiting on the MCAT scores from this cycle to come back

[prettyinmedicine]

lol that’s what i was thinking too. thought i was special to them

 

[2024NonTradAnon]

Lol did you see that 52X MCAT? While they review applicants holistically, I assume there is some sort of "sort" and her app went to the top of the pile.

 

[coolbeans:)]

lol that’s what i was thinking too. thought i was special to them

hey you def are special to them you got a secondary!! (and i hope you get an interview!!)

 

[WhiteCoatBeauty]

I just got my score back and I dropped 6 points, so I guess I’ll be back saying that I’m applying for a third cycle lol, but Good luck everyone 😊

I know you may not feel the best about your score drop, but don’t count yourself out yet!

 

[Dan765]

anyone know when the next wave of secondary will be sent

 

[notanappleadaydoc]

anyone know when the next wave of secondary will be sent

I just received mine today

 

[2024NonTradAnon]

You submitted 8/22 and haven't received a secondary or you received your secondary on 8/22 and haven't received an interview invite? If the latter, it doesn't seem like anyone has, or at least not anyone who posts here. If the former, you might just have to be patient.

Don't give up! Your hard work WILL pay off!
