Dr. Cunningham,
Has your med school ever accepted applicants with a subpar MCAT score? Like >22? Thanks again!
Recent class range was 24-42. Hope this helps.
Does anyone know whether II's are sent out constantly or if they are sent out in batches? If they are sent out in batches does anyone know when the next batch gets sent out? I am very interested in this school and still haven't heard from them yet!
We invite daily, weekly through early-Dec. All not chosen for interview will be notified periodically, beginning later this month.
Did you guys use the same essay response to "how would you fit in with our mission/values...?" for both Tucson and Phoenix?

Dr. Cunningham,
I am an OOS applicant, LizzyM score 69.8. Would it be too late to submit my secondary this week? Are my chances pretty drasitcally reduced from submitting this late?
Thank you!
Help me understand - what is a LizzyM score??
Does anyone know if the admissions committee will accept updates after we have submitted our applications regarding new activities (i.e. volunteer work or jobs) that we have begun?? Thanks!!
II!
I'm oos as well. I'm very excited to visit campus
I think that LizzyM was a member of one of the various pre-med forums that invented a simple algorithm to create a metric that incorporates GPA and MCAT score. Basically, somebody made it up.
The most common variation is GPA multiplied by 10 plus the composite MCAT score.
Interesting. Seems like another thing to stress over - oh dear!
Keep up the hard work, pre-meds!! Keep honest, genuine and authentic.
In all fairness, this is a very esoteric process. The only thing tangible we have for comparison among ourselves is the GPA and MCAT. So, it's not surprising that neurosis develops and exhibits itself in made up formulas that make for one more thing to be neurotic about, a nice little positive feedback loop.
Thanks being one of the few (if not only) representatives from an admission committee to help make it a little less esoteric.
21 days remaining to submit your AMCAS. Remember, Phoenix deadline is October 15th and transcripts must arrive within two-weeks after the deadline.
No extensions are granted.
Dr. Cunningham
This may sound silly but do we need to send our transcripts to the medical school office as well as to amcas?

Hi Dr. Cunningham,
I was just wondering if rejections have started going out yet. I haven't heard anything since I submitted about 7 weeks ago, so I was just curious.
II!

Congrats!!! How soon after submitting your secondary app did you receive an interview invite at UA Phoenix Med?
Hi Dr. Cunningham,
I was curious if there is a general consensus on who we should be directing our thank you note/email to? You have definitely been extremely helpful and supportive both on these forums and the interview day itself, but during the meet and greet, I remember one of the MS1s had mentioned a name regarding this issue, but I forgot to write down who it was.
I appreciate you taking the time to read this!
Seems like II have been silent for a while...
i submitted in july and am still hopefully waiting....
II this morning! OOS, 31 MCAT, 3.6 GPA, very non-traditional, lover of Arizona!!
congrats ! When were you complete if you don't mind asking?
