Members don't see this ad.

I emailed yesterday and was told I'd have my feedback yesterday or today... still nothing. :/

Have you received anything yet?

Have you received anything yet?

No. I'm quite frustrated. I realize that things must be hectic there, with orientation starting today and all, but I don't want to resubmit my application without their feedback. I plan to follow up tomorrow or Wednesday.

If this helps, my feedback said improve MCAT to overall score above 30, specifics on the interview, and (if possible) continue volunteering and shadowing. For the interview, it said that I shouldn't be as anxious and my speech pattern should be more regular, not fluctuating between fast and slow. Now the interviews hold a considerable amount of weight in the overall selection process. However, I've heard that the interviews are changing to 7-9 mini-interviews lasting under 10 minutes each. I hope this information benefits everybody applying for UASOM next year.

When did you request and receive your feedback?

I originally requested feedback towards the end of May; however, I did not receive it until last week.
