Hi! I have a question about the remediation rate!
I personally think it’s an admissions/work ethic/priorities issue. Good students do fine. I also think only having 3-4 total exams for each semester may play a part but overall most do fine.
To answer my own question, the interview was half open half closed. They can see your application but cannot see your grades/gpa/mcat score
How did it go? How was the vibe?
I honestly think it depends on your interviewer. Mine was great. Had a very nice conversation, he said he really liked my answers... but who knows. I really thought it went well. But I also know that on some questions I was stuttering and was nervous because I had to think of things on the spot (even though I read over my application and practiced the basic questions). We'll see! Vibe was very relaxed for me personally but I also know others that have said it was a bit on the tougher side.
According to last years trends, looks like those who interviewed in August/September heard back in mid-October. Could be different this year though, not too sure.
Do not remember but every medical school does a background check before enrollment so if your record is not clean it is bound to come up prior to matriculation
Makes sense. It’s more so a thing I would like to discuss directly with the dean or admissions after acceptance rather than disclose it and give them yet another reason to filter me out when its already competitive as is
Congratulations! When were you complete?
August 28th
I submitted the same time and got a secondary the next day.
They send secondaries to everyone. Did you check spam?
Just checked, and it was the only school I applied to that ended up in my spam for some reason. Thank you!
Do you mind me asking why you're declining?
I was already accepted at a school I would rather attend and leaving this opportunity for someone else
Wanting to know the same. I interviewed one of the first interview slots. Was wondering when they send out their decisions
That data isn’t shared anywhere. However, anecdotally, if you were interviewed early on then you have a good chance of an A. When I applied, I interviewed and was accepted 3 weeks later (Sept. -> Oct.).
I interviewed today as well and I just went ahead and sent one to my interviewer. I don’t think she was on the admissions committee but I figured it could never hurt. Hope we both get A’s in Oct based on last years thread!
Do you send it directly to them or the admissions office?
Just directly to them.
I was advised by NYIT admissions not to do that and send it directly to the admissions email. I asked them if I would just send it to the interviewer specifically and they said not to. I’m sure it’s fine but just for anyone else reading
Also, forgot, yeah I hope we both get A's too
I don’t think they’re sending out decisions yet… right? Unless they told y’all something they didn’t tell us who interviewed earlier in the cycle
No. Based on last year's thread it looks like those who interviewed in August and September will hear back this coming Friday. Some may not find out until November or later. Unless someone has heard differently directly from admissions this is what I am predicting.
Take the day off! It’s a holiday today so they’re probably not working.
Also LM of 63 (low GPA, decent-ish MCAT). OOS, but an interest in rural health.
