is the "supplemental application received" email basically the same as a complete email?
No. There will be another email informed you about that.is the "supplemental application received" email basically the same as a complete email?
I am so excited for you guys! Try not to worry though, find things to occupy youI'm hoping today is the day for the 8/19 interview group
+1just got the application in review email. fingers crossed
They may. Remember they can ask anything abt the applicationI know we should know our applications very well, but do you think they'll ask specifics about MCAT scores, why is it low (score 26), why didn't you retake it and so on? Thanks in advance.
A score of 26 is not that low compared to their averages, so don't worry about it. In the event that it should come up(although that would be rare), don't make excuses, explain what your weaknesses were and how you improved them. Good luck!!!I know we should know our applications very well, but do you think they'll ask specifics about MCAT scores, why is it low (score 26), why didn't you retake it and so on? Thanks in advance.
If you got to the interview stage, they are totally fine with your stats, and I doubt they would waste time in the interview asking you why you didn't retake the MCAT. Also, a 26 is not low. I have a 502 and was accepted.I know we should know our applications very well, but do you think they'll ask specifics about MCAT scores, why is it low (score 26), why didn't you retake it and so on? Thanks in advance.

I disagree with this.I think you should be prepared to answer it
you think it's wise to just go in there and be confident that they wont ask? i agree that they probably dont ask about it but its a bit careless to not prepare just in case they doI disagree with this.
Can anyone comment on the "ethics" questions that were asked during the interview?
Good attitude. I only prepare to answer why medicine, do, and ACOM and why there's a C- in anatomy and C in neuroscienceThanks everyone I am in the overthinking phase. I'll prepare for it but no overkill!

Anybody know the rates for the on-campus housing?

I have a 499. So relatively low. They did ask about it, and what I would do if I had to take it again.

Pretty sure it's like close to $1,000 for a 1bedFor a second I thought the rate for room was 499/month
I really think if you got an II they are okay with your stats. But from above, prepare to answer questions about anything in your file. Mind sharing your stats? They probably aren't as low as you thinkGuess I need to get ready to speak to my (very) low grades. I'm almost wondering if I just got an II because of my MCAT score... Does anyone know their average or know if they look more heavily at GPA or MCAT in their admissions decisions?
Also - to any current students - is there much of a gay community? I don't want to make any assumptions, but how accepted is being gay at the school? I didn't see any LGBT student groups so I'm curious to learn more. If you want to PM me, I'd love to start a dialogue. Thanks!
I hope it's cheaper than that lol. that's like $12000 a yearPretty sure it's like close to $1,000 for a 1bed
I looked at previous threads and I think it's definitely in the $900-1000 range!I hope it's cheaper than that lol. that's like $12000 a year

If you can bring some additional info on that one.Quick question- Since it's open file and everything, is it bad to talk about the same stories/experiences we mentioned in the essay?

I was around 2.9cGPA/2.69sGPA. 518 MCAT. It's a crapshoot.
damn dude if you kill a post bacc, you can def get into some allopathic schools w that MCAT. even if you have your sights only set on DO, look into post baccs while youre applyingI was around 2.9cGPA/2.69sGPA. 518 MCAT. It's a crapshoot.
$999/mo for a 1 bedroom. That includes all utilities, unless you're a super high energy utilizer in which case you can be billed for the additional energy usage. It's cheaper to live in a 2 bedroom, of course. Studio apartments are about $750/mo I think(?) not sure. A significant portion of the class lives on campus. You can find much cheaper housing that is not on campus.
I like the studio one better. I probably get that one since I'm living alone.$999/mo for a 1 bedroom.

Not off the top of my head, it varies between floor plans I think. [email protected] can give you definitive answers.
Anyone from last Friday interview get acceptance calls yet?
I wouldn't bring it up unless they ask specifically for things like challenges you overcame but that's me, each to their ownThanks for the answers guys! One last thing- is the interview a bad place to bring up touchy topics like domestic violence/abuse and stuff if they played a role in your life in some way or another?
