2023-2024 Emory

[Rite1234]

Emory's website says that interview season starts in September, so I am not sure if they change that or not because secondaries are coming out so late.

Is the reason Emory SOM isn’t sending secondaries because it’s closing down and shutting its door for good? RIP Emory med 🩷

This is too funny

Do you think this silly comment is helping anyone?
If you can clearly see that nobody else is getting secondaries yet, go work on something else!

I'm trying to dial down the panic in general, @generalgummy, and I'm sorry my comment upset you.
This application process lasts over a year and a big part of coping with all the waiting is to figure out the process and when to be concerned, and it's not time to be concerned for any of you.
I hope you all get to be considered for your favorite schools.

Probably best to leave the jokes off this forum tbh. A lot of neurotic premeds rn who get anxious hearing stuff like that, no matter how crazy it is.

OOS Secondary received!

Kinda annoyed they removed the "What do you consider to be the role of the physician in the community" essay since I prewrote it for nothing, but kinda happy too since that prompt was so weird and my response was so sh*tty.

Thank you @Labe for sharing the questions as well as @OreoLover365 for confirming the word counts.

 

[NotReal234]

For the last question are people just putting “N/A” if they have nothing else to add? I feel like I covered everything with the first essay about the gap year.

Do you guys know what classes fall under humanities/social sciences? I was not aware that they required 18 credits lol, I might have to take some in the future now

Humanities: philosophy, ethics, English, literature, languages, etc

Social: economics, sociology, psychology

To name a few

omg thank you so much, I was scared I had to add classes to my schedule

 

[OreoLover365]

I’m pretty sure one of Emory’s links within the secondary app portal said they count math and stats too under humanities and social sciences

my fault big bro

 

[doughnutcommerical]

If they keep the prompt "Briefly describe your health-related experiences. Be sure to include important experiences that are in your AMCAS application, as well as any recent experiences. (200 words)", do they really want a whistle-stop tour on ALL healthcare experiences in the AMCAS app? 10/15 of my experiences were health-related, so I'd only have about a sentence for each given the 200-word limit.

Or would it be acceptable to choose 1-2 health-related experiences and provide in-depth detail on what I learned, and how I grew as an individual?

Asking this again now we've got the prompts

 

[toastedbutter]

I think it wants all of them, particularly clinical experiences.

For this question:

Does anyone have insight on if it's fine to discuss things outside of courses I will be taking next year, or am I basically just meant to list out my classes in sentence form?

I am having the same problem. I emailed admissions so hopefully they will respond.

I listed my courses as a full time student and briefly said what work I'm doing because I was also working as a scribe part time, and I said I'd continue working because I was graduating in the fall. This was last cycle, and I got an II. Didn't get the A though which is why I'm here lol

I'm mad because that was one of the best essays I've written this entire process haha

I'm not an MSTP applicant but my AP courses are missing...some of which I was hoping to use to fulfill prereqs. Anyone know if they just exclude AP courses (even if they were listed and verified on AMCAS) altogether, or if this is something that can be fixed?

I emailed them and they’re aware of issue, but they told me to check the future registration box and use the space to explain it was an AP course I received credit at my school for.
