let the discussions begin
Going this Friday, 21st!I'll be there Nov 4th, super-excited !
From what I gathered, the committee meets after we interview to discuss how we did/our applications, and then around the 3rd or 4th week of the month, Dr. Bing-You goes to boston with their decisions and presents our cases to the Boston admissions people, and once they "ok" it, acceptance or waitlist or rejection calls go out the first week or so of the following month.Does anyone know how and when they start sending out acceptance/rejection decisions for people who have already interviewed?
Does anyone have a sense of how many Maine residents they interview? I know last year there were 74 Maine res applicants, 26 of whom matriculated, but I'm wondering how many of those 74 applicants actually got interviews. Thanks in advance!
so for those that have interviewed, I guess we could potentially here as early as next friday the 4th?
I think so! Based on past years, it looks like calls go out the first Thursday of the month...
Do they do more than one round of acceptances for the Maine Track? I know you all probably don't know, but maybe they said something at the interview day?
Congrats/good luck to all
Has anyone who got the call from Dean Neumeyer heard anything more from Tufts/MMC? Radio silence here...
Congrats acceptees! Very cool. How was the MMI format? Super-intense? Any curveballs?
It was actually kind of fun! I thought it would be stressful but everyone was really nice and each station went by faster than I expected. No real curveballs, and they don't expect perfect answers. It seemed like it was more important to see your approach to the questions/scenarios. I did wish I knew a little more about rural medicine though.
I see you're interviewing tomorrow, good luck!
Anybody else have any advice on the MMI format? I've never done this before.
Any admitted students heard back about scholarships yet?
When they send the acceptance they give you contact info for someone at Maine Medical Center. I contacted her and she told me that scholarship offers should go out for accepted students this week. Hoping to hear early next week!
Scholarship ?Just got the scholarship letter in the mail! Super excited for this program!

Scholarship ?
I received a phone call on the first of November (which was a Tuesday I believe) and I interviewed in October. Therefore, based on my experience, it seems that they start calling accepted students on the first day of the month after you interview. But at the same time, I wouldn't freak out if you don't get a call today. I don't think they necessarily have a certain day of the week that they call on. It's just any time after the admissions committee meets, which is usually around the last week of every month. I hope you get some good news!haha - no responeses. Maybe "anal" was the wrong word to use (or maybe I am the most anal person here!). Let me rephrase: does anybody who has read through the past years Maine Track threads know when we can expect calls, other than "early December"?

Just got an interview invite! I am so excited.
Congrats on interview invites you two - good luck!
To those who interviewed in November, when are these calls going out already!? Not today apparently...
I interviewed in Nov as well. I thought we'd know by now. I imagine some admissions committee members schedules got crossed as it appears no one has heard anything. I bet they notify sometime this week...Congrats on interview invites you two - good luck!
