Applying to Med School? Get In Or Your Money Back
This forum made possible through the generous support of SDN members, donors, and sponsors. Thank you.
The wait is real hard - this was the first school i interviewed at! Good luck to everyone, hope it works out for us all. just wondering, has anyone here interviewed/been accepted at NJMS yet? I'm interested in how people are going to decide between the two/what factors should be considered. I'm torn (not that I've been accepted to RWJ, just really hoping it will work out!)

I've been accepted to NJMS. I am also awaiting a decision from RWJ. I think deciding between the two will depend on fit and location. I have other schools I am considering as well. The two schools are different in terms of how they "feel," the patient populations they serve and the cities they are located in.

Goodnight y'all. Hopefully we'll all wake up to acceptances tomorrow, Oprah style. "And YOU get an acceptance! And YOU get an acceptance! EVERY. BODY. GETS. AN. ACCEPTANCE!" ;)

Btw - do rejections and wait lists come out today as well? Or just more silence?

Just got the call!

Per Dr. T- there is no order. Not alphabetical. She has meetings all day so is calling interspersed between them. Can't make 150 calls at once-which is how many they are making today. Will send an email when all calls are made. She asked if I could put that on the internet lol.

Be patient and good luck!

so will everyone who has interviewed early (like sept/oct/even nov) and doesnt get a phone call today get an email to let them know their status or at least to know that the phone calls are done? just wondering because i don't wanna spend all day anxiously checking email/waiting by the phone

I was told they would let us know everyone's status (by email) once acceptances are issued in December.

Losing hope as the day goes on lol

Wait so they're definitely doing all of them today? Or is there a chance to get a call later this week?
 
I speculate more will come in the evening, maybe after 5 or 6, just based on when workdays end. Not sure though, this is just an opinion.

Just stay chill man. I'm in the same boat. If it's gonna happen, it will happen. It's not over until we get that email. No use worrying about this now. Concentrate on something else.

According to the acceptance call I got from Dr. Terregino, she said she has to make 150 calls today. Who knows if that is going to happen because quite frankly 150 calls in one day is A LOT!

I definitely also bombed one MMI station.
