oh dear now i am afraid to check my mail!
Has anyone heard if they are receptive to "in the area" emails/calls? I have an interview in rochester MN oct. 7. Thought it couldnt hurt
Interview invite via email this evening! IS complete 8/26. 🙂
Congrats! When is your interview?
For those that just interview invites, when were you complete, state residency, and how competitive were your stats compared to their average (if you don't mind saying)? Congrats !
OOS rejection via snail mail. Complete 8/22. Good luck to everyone else

Hi there. I know this topic has been covered already, but I'm still hung up on it. I've stalled on sending the secondary because I really don't know what to do with the life experiences section.
I called the office recently and asked if they wanted the descriptions to be the same as on AMCAS, and the lady basically said do whatever you want, because all they really care about is that graph thing. 😕
I spent a lot of time (as I'm sure you all did!) perfecting the activity descriptions for my primary, so I'm hesitant to re-write them. I could expand on them, but then the descriptions would become super long. Does anyone know if they look at the secondary descriptions in lieu of the AMCAS ones?
Anywho, I would love some input from you all on what you did (and possibly the outcomes, if you have any yet!).
Thx!
Anyone know if the interviews are open or closed file?
welp. OOS rejection via snail mail. Good luck to the rest.
🙁 when were you complete?
Good luck in the rest of the cycle
Complete 9/2. I dunno why the rejection though I suspect it might be a combination of OOS and mediocre ECs. Think I should call them to ask about it?
If this is answered anywhere else, I apologize. I couldn't find concrete and current answers for it.
Is there a screening process for the secondary application? I have submitted most all of my secondaries a few weeks ago. I just assumed I was rejected from UW. However, I got a secondary today. Is this normal and I should not put much stock on it?
Thanks!
Question answer #4 - http://www.med.wisc.edu/education/md/admissions/faqs/108
Let me know if I can answer any questions about the school, interview/selection process, or anything else.
I visited there not long ago and fell in love with the town. I could see myself living there and having a decent time of it. Long question short, how do I get in? 🙂
I've got some time, aiming for Autumn 2014 matriculation. Anything I can do to look better for them ( no, I don't think I can move there early to become IS)? Non traditional engineer, out of state for reference.
Honestly, things don't look too favorable right now but you are an in-state resident and the secondary is relatively cheap in the grand scheme of things. You miss 100% of shots you don't take so give it a try.OK, so my GPA is 3.73 and my best combined score from two MCATS is a 27m(10,7,10). I'm also economically disadvantaged. what do u guys think my chances of getting in madison are? I'm a WI resident btw.
Does anyone know if out of state with strong WI ties helps at all? I grew up in Wisconsin until I went to college. Went to college in MN, and have been out of state for three years after college. Think this counts for something?
3.7/35
Incorrect. There are a number of factors that go into the determination of residency for the purposes of tuition: residence history, location of present/past employment, location of past/present educational institutions, WI income tax history, WI voter registration history, Car/ driver license from WI, parental info (if applicable), reason for relocating to WI.I believe being born in WI and going to HS there makes you an in-state resident but you should check the state residency guidelines.
