has anyone created a list of the "pros and cons" to attending Louisville? I'm just curious what everyone's opinions are on this school.
I'd really like to see a good comparison like that too. I've read all of the UofL v. UK threads on here the two always seem to pretty much break even. I think they need a better sales pitch as to why you should go to their school, not that UofL's a bad school, but I want someone to convince me it's where I should go.
I feel the same way. But even a forum with nicknames is too public a place for me to feel comfortable talking about stuff like that.
Kentucky just ain't that big of a place!
Someone could easily make a throwaway account with no information whatsoever if they felt like you. Also, I don't think either school would care at all about listing pros/cons.
I am an IS student interviewing on November 2nd. I have a 31 MCAT/3.6 GPA to go with strong medical experience and extracurriculars (D1 NCAA athlete). I feel like I am a good candidate, but am worried that may interview may be a little too late.
Can anybody give me an idea on how my odds look here? Or maybe what percent of the class is filled by now?
Thanks
A friend of mine and I both got that same message. I've asked around and my advisor who is very experienced in dealing with UofL's admissions office said that it just means they haven't got to us yet.
I interviewed at UK a week later than UofL and already got the acceptance with them, so I'm sure it won't be long before we receive another message from UofL.
I just spoke with the Admissions Office staff yesterday, and the class is now already over 50% full since the first batch of acceptances went last Monday.
What is a typical day like for an M1? Do you feel like you have enough time after class to get work done and relax?
Have any out of state applicants received word from Louisville? I haven't heard anything in about 5 or 6 weeks (got the secondary on 9/15; submitted it on 9/16; they cashed my check on 9/20).
Should I give them a call, or is this expected?

I haven't gotten anything. They meet every 2nd and 4th tuesday, so they shouldn't be sending anything until after the 8th.
I thought the same thing, but then I got this today around 10AM:
We are pleased to offer you admission to the University of Louisville School of Medicine entering class of Fall 2012. Your official admission's offer letter will be mailed on Monday, October 31st. The attached letter(s) contains identical information regarding our offer in order to help facilitate your decision making by (14 days from receipt of this email notification) Monday, November, 14th.

Only, there was no attached letter, much less letter(s). Guess I should watch my mail this week.

What was your interview date? Just out of curiosity.
I interviewed on 9/7 and still haven't heard anything and its driving me insane.

Thanks guys! No snail-mail letter has come. If the email hadn't specifically said something about "Monday October 31st" I would wonder if it'd accidentally been sent on the wrong day, but idk what to think.
And I believe I interviewed August 30th. But I would add that there doesn't seem to be much pattern as far as who they notify when. (I mean, apparently I was admitted sans committee meeting, j/k)
The committee is supposed to meet tomorrow. Does anyone know if they review files in the order we interviewed?
the chair of the admissions committee said that she tries to make sure that everyone that was interviewed before november hears one way or the other by the end of the year, but the committee has no rule about going in order.
Has anyone who interviewed in September heard anything back? It seems so far that only people who know interviewed in august.
Nov 22 committee meeting canceled. Next and last meeting for fall semester is Dec 13...

For those accepted, any idea when we should be receiving updates for informational meetings?
