Did only one person hear back from the week of 1/15? Should the rest of us that week take it as a WL or R or will we still have a shot at an A in the next round?

CONGRATS!!!! Did you just hear back for regular MD or PRIME as well?
Thank you!! I just heard back for regular MD, but I believe that PRIME acceptances come out around March (could be wrong tho)

Someone mentioned they got an II and it was scheduling for next week. Second wave is likely for those yet to interview and those they didn’t get to yet for this wave

Do you presume they'll have another interview date?

I interviewed on 02/05, and they told us the admission decisions for 02/05 and 02/13 interviews will be released last week of Februray - first week of March. Not sure about the late January interviews though

Did everyone who interviewed early to mid January hear back?
 
Would it be unreasonable to call and ask up to what interview date they have made decisions for lol

would you be able to ask if early interviews who haven’t received A’s or WL are still being considered please
 
So I called and they told me they released As and WLs but made no rejection decisions yet. They told me no decision has been made on my app yet and I will be in the second wave

so I take it anything 1/22 or beyond has not been reviewed as of yet?

Can someone plz tell me if that means those who interviewed in the fall and haven’t heard back yet are rejected

If no decision has been made does that mean the debate is between WL and R given our II time in the cycle? Or else we would have been WL right?🥲

Could be that they want to review your application again for the second wave?

does that mean anyone who interviewed in the fall who hasn't gotten a decision yet has essentially been deferred to the next wave? why weren't we notified of this

You could call and ask about the status of your application? They are super nice and willing to let you know—they offered and I didn’t even ask lol

I interviewed 1/23 but honestly maybe I am done cos I was JMP but got rejected from the regular med school pre-II, and it seems those have gone out? Ugh
 
So it’s looking like if you interviewed earlier on and didn’t get any decision today they’re probably debating whether they want to send you a straight rejection vs a waitlist right

Maybe. Could also just be behind on general A/WL/R decisions considering they said decisions would be released late last week/early this week and were just released today.
 
I interviewed 01/11 for PRIME-SJV, should I assume R if I didn't hear back today or is it still too early to tell?
 
Debating between R or WL is ridiculous lol theyre basically the same thing. Why couldn’t they communicate to people who didn’t get a decision today that they would be deferred to the second wave? Wild man

Yes im salty

I feel you that med schools should be more transparent. But in their defense, if sdn and Reddit didn’t exist no one would know when others heard back and there wouldn’t be so much stress. I wish it was different because I’ve been led on by too many schools at this point

Still haven’t received an II yet. Secondary complete in September. Anyone know if there will be any more interview dates? Website says IIs go out until early February. We’re kind of reaching the end of that period soon 😅

Same but mid-August for me. I think I’m gonna call tomorrow and ask if my app is still under review or not.

Just to confirm, accepting their current offer is non-binding and is only a confirmation of continued interest, correct?
