2023-2024 Hofstra

[purdey]

same honestly felt like interview went very well too

damn feels bad… first MMI results so makes me second guess my other MMIs

Might not have been our interviews. LizzyM’s staircase analogy is making me feel better sorta. I’m below hofstra’s mcat median and I’m assuming I got overshadowed by high stat people

Interviews: the View From Behind the Curtain

@Goro @gyngyn Is it true that at the interview stage, you as the candidate for medical school, have an equal chance at getting an acceptance? And that your Acceptance/WL/Rejection is solely based (at that interview point and onward) purely on your interview? I.e. if invited for an interview...

literally me and I have one more MMI decision coming this week that I thought went even worse than Hofstra 🤣

Is anyone able to access the Incoming Student Packet on their My Hofstra portal? It says I don't have access, even when logged into the Hofstra email...

When I go into the Admit Packet tab it says there are PDFs of the acceptance package that gets mailed but not seeing any files--anyone else having this issue?

Is there an accepted students GroupMe by any chance?

I was going to ask this. Should we make one?

A (12/18)
Did anyone get a congratulatory email just now from their traditional station interviewer?

 

[lizzbader6199]

I was wondering if anyone recalls a tab opening up in their portal after the interview with the names of the individuals who interviewed them for the MMI. I interviewed last week and remembered them saying something about this but nothing has changed in my portal. I wanted to individually address some of the interviewers for thank you letters.

 

[shiningbright]

ZuckerSOM accepted students group me: GroupMe

just made one!

OOS II, was in my spam folder!

When were you complete?

 

[sparky21]

anyone know when we'll hear abt a decision if we didnt get the A in the wave in dec?

 

[tomthegawd]

I think they said february. I interviewed Dec 1st and all I remember was that the decision release was extremely far away so I haven't thought much about it.

 

[purdey]

For some reason I have late January listed as next round. Not sure where I got that though.

In my interview in September they said they release monthly December - March. Cycle track also has some acceptances end of Jan iirc

 

[sparky21]

So if we interviewed back in September and didn’t hear we have to wait till the next decision wave in feb?

 

[purdey]

So if we interviewed back in September and didn’t hear we have to wait till the next decision wave in feb?

not necessarily. Last year there were acceptances jan 24, 27 and feb 7

 

[augabear]

I interviewed this month and they said we could hear back anytime between the end of this month and the end of March.

 

[applied2toomanyschoolsxd]

anyone know how responsive they are to post-II LOI?

 

[coin22]

OOS II just now submitted september

 

[coin22]

[coin22]

Just withdrew, hope the II goes to someone here <3

[6'0 OGFLYERCI]

[menkar]

Refundable, no?

 

[Guggenburg]

Refundable, no?

I don't know but I withdrew lol

 

[tibdra8]

What are chances they still have interviews to send out? Complete radio silence on my part and cycle track does not look promising for zucker

 

[keksD]

the mmi platform is glitchy

 

[edf85050]

Refundable, no?

Yes.

 

[edf85050]

I interviewed this month and they said we could hear back anytime between the end of this month and the end of March.

current zsom--fwiw I got my A mid-march after interviewing on the last possible day.

 

[mr5143]

I have a really specific question about the MMI platform. To the people who interviewed already/will interview this week, when did the 'start interview' button appear on your interview portal? I don't see it yet and my interview is tomorrow, and I want to make sure this is normal. Thanks!!

l had to double check because I thought maybe I misread it lol but it seems like for now there’s just no decision for us either way. So not WL but also not A or R 😂 just gotta wait and see
