My interview as wayyy back in November and when we toured the place, I think I heard it mentioned that our exams are taken on these computers. But since my interview was so long ago, I might have forgotten or heard something else...I just can't remember.

I'm going to venture a guess that those that are off the waitlist are in the top third? Probably no hope at all for the rest huh.

I'm not sure, I'm in the top third and still waiting. Good luck to you. I have heard that they pull from any thirds so, just keep your fingers cross

Not so true. I was placed on middle third and was still accepted.

Does anyone know if lectures are recorded here? I recall that they are implementing it but don't remember completely.

Edit: Lol I googled it and found the answer which is yes.

Hey guys if you're still deciding where to go for school next year and you've come to a decision to withdraw from EVMS please do so quickly! I am sure everyone on the waitlist would like an opportunity to take it. Myself included! Thank you so much!

I'm looking for a female roommate for a 2-bd 1-bth at the Hague Club Apts. If anyone is interested, just PM me!

-edit-
No longer looking for a roommate. Thanks!

I got a call for a spot earlier today. I was told that there was 1 spot left - and I unfortunately had to decline as I will be studying north of the border. Good luck to the last member of the class of 2016.

Did anyone get accepted with <3.4 sGPA? Someone in the 2012-2013 said they got rejected immediately after submitting the secondary and EVMS told him they look for >3.4sGPA in all applicants, >28MCAT IS, and >30 OOS. I have a 3.14/33 (OOS) and am wondering if I should even bother submitting.

I was accepted with <3.0 sGPA. But I also did an SMP and did very well on the MCAT. The first time I applied (pre-SMP and with average MCAT), I was screened out pre-secondary.

I'd still apply. I saw the post about what the adcom told that person but I don't think they make cuts like that. I think it was just the fact that both his GPA and MCAT were in that range.. for you, your higher MCAT will help outweigh your GPA a bit.

Can anyone tell me what kind of student clubs EVMS offers? I'd be especially interested in one revolving around (fictional, I'm sure) case studies.

Hi Everybody,

I posted awhile back to help students with decisions and to clear up rumors and misconceptions. I am here again (yay M4 year!) and I should have more time to answer your questions in details. Congrats to those who got accepted and welcome to EVMS! You will have a great time here and I am jealous of all of you who are coming during this time. We have just completely remodeled and updated our campus and buildings. We have a new dean who is nationally renowned for taking schools to the next level and we have upgraded to state school status and are getting a huge amount of money each year because of our President. Where I started as a student will be a very different place as you go through. And of course, that is a good thing =).

I saw there were some concerns about cutoffs and such. We look at the entire application when we choose applicants to interview and accept. Although we -prefer- people with higher stats, stats are not the only things that we look at. I would not exclude EVMS just because you dont' "fit" the exact numbers that are listed above. You will be surprised =)

Hope that helps and I look forward to helping each one of you. see you on campus in August!

Can any current students comment on laptops? Will a Mac be compatible with EVMS software, including ExamSoft (if that's what they still use for tests)? Or should I be looking more seriously at PC's?
