Impressive! Lets hope my 3.7/37Q will get some notice too 😛. Complete 8/7...

Stats aren't everything. <36MCAT <3.7GPA and I received an interview.

Thus passes another 1-2-3 Tuesday without an interview invitation. Prolonged sigh.

yup. though there wasn't anything on twitter today so maybe they skipped it?

Check it again: they did mention 1-2-3 Tuesday on Twitter today.

 

[imcanadaian]

sigh. "file complete" and under review since 7/10!

 

[wanderedtoolong]

ah- darn it!

 

[wanderedtoolong]

also, how can they call it a "great" 1-2-3 Tuesday when none of us got IIs!? I'd say it was lousy!

 

[pr2]

Anyone with II's able to get a host?

 

[msf2012]

Not yet--I've been looking!

 

[yellowfish]

No luck here either. I'll post if I find one, though!

 

[Tots]

Yeah I wasn't able to see any hosts either. I ended up reserving a room at the Inn at the Michigan League. This probably worked better for me anyways since I actually arrive on Wednesday...by train...from the east coast.

Me too...



Does this mean we are obligated to meet?

You mean you are planning to stay at the Inn at the Michigan League, or you are coming by train on Wednesday? Or both? Maybe I should change my plans now.....😀

Tater:

I'm planning to stay at the Inn at the Michigan League.

If I was coming by train, well that'd just be too much coincidence to handle in one sitting!

Yeah if you were also coming by train that would be odd...Assuming they make me wear a name tag with my name on it at the interview there is no way for me to be a ninja. Sadly it will be obvious who I am. It will be up to the rest of you on whether you want to reveal your secret identities to me(no pressure 😛).

I'd introduce myself, but I don't want to say "Hi, I'm K-Dizzle"

Should have thought through this whole name selection thing more...

Admissions tracker was updated. Looks like only ~24 interview invites were sent over the last 3 weeks so hopefully they'll be picking up the pace now.

 

[Cheezhead]

[yellowfish]

I was able to find a student host last night. There was only one available when I checked.

 

[elevenses]

Maybe this will be the 3-2-1 Thursday I have been waiting for...

I'm not on twitter, but is there any talk that they will be releasing more interview invites today?

 

[GiraffeMode]

It says that they're doing 321 today so hopefully today is the day for some of us!

 

[reesescup]

missed it 🙁

 

[elevenses]

No dice.

 

[imcanadaian]

No invite..but a cool little update email about how they're still evaluating applications and will be continuing to grant interviews into Jan, 2013. So a bit of hope! 🙂

It scared the crap out of me. I thought it was a rejection. Generic title and all

I woke up from a nap and read it like 4 times trying to figure out "Is this rejection, or what?" Quite glad it was an "or what?"

Have they rejected anyone yet? My hopes aren't too high for this school even with their kind update email.

 

[cinamin]

🙁 hey i didn't get the nice update email today....i wonder if they do email rejections before the cycle ends.

I've been wondering the same thing and I currently have very low hopes for some reason. I think all this waiting and being graduated stuff is getting to me. With that said, lets keep our collective heads up shall we? Cause after-all, I'm stuck in the middle with you. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DohRa9lsx0Q 👍

I am a re-applicant here but in 2010, I got rejected in september saying that my status has updated please check your status link.

 

[eggs13]

anyone else get (direct message) spammed by the UMich twitter?

 

[Propylene]

Yep, looks like they got hacked?

I didn't know you were even allowed to apply to UMich with a avatar picture of OSU 😛

 

[elevenses]

Some 1-2-3 Tuesday that was.

 

[arabwolverine13]

Some 1-2-3 Tuesday that was.

Today was almost all in state interview offers. They tweeted that interviews will pick up after labor day, so guess we just have to be patient

 

[wanderedtoolong]

Oh dear god- from the twitter feed:
"3-2-1 Thursday will be (by far) the largest of year! Good luck to all applicants hoping to interview for a seat in Class #167!"

Hahaha, sounds pretty epic.

 

[pachewisc]

Anyone care to explain what UMich actually means by their 1-2-3 Tues and 3-2-1 Thurs?

It's just a way to remember when they send their interview invitations out each week. At 1:23 PM on Tuesday and 3:21 PM on Thursday.

I'm feeling like today's going to be the day! Of course, I've felt like that for the past 5 Tuesday/Thursdays or so... 😳

 

[Propylene]
