Congratulations on the II sunflower18! My gpa is nearly identical to yours but, but I have a 29 MCAT, so a straightforward II would really really help my anxious mind! 🙂

Thanks!!! Good luck to you!! 🙂

Im confused, when you guys say II, isn't that a secondary? Or interview? 😵

 

[AllThatRacket]

First interview yup 🙂

So exciting!

II is Interview Invite. 🙂

II= INTERVIEW INVITE

[death prophet]

SI received...

 

[death prophet]

Placed on hold today. No e-mail.

 

[blackkrim]

EDIT: Sorry, never mind.

 

[ManOfDiligence]

Placed on hold today.

 

[caliboydave]

Anyone else been complete since 7/1 with no status update? I have been under review ever since. and with all of these II coming out, makes one anxious 🙁

 

[Skull Pell]

Havent been on this thread in a while. But wow congrats to all that got II's!!!! That's awesome and this early on in the cycle too!

I may sound very uninformed with my presumptions but I do have a question: Since it looks like GW sends out secondaries even though you haven't been verified yet.. In my case I submitted 6/8, but didnt get all the transcripts in by 7/1 🙁 and AMCAS is still reviewing people who have been verified 6/22 and I have yet to take my mcat on 7/25, should I still add GWU to my primary app already so that I **may** have a chance of even getting a secondary? Just being cautiously optimistic on my score but at the same time don't want to submit a secondary too late either.

 

[yankees527]

Been complete since around 7/1. No status change yet..

EDIT: get to work GW, my FAP is good money!

 

[hoihaie]

Had to log out and relog in for my new status to show.

Got put on hold 🙁

 

[death prophet]

Has anyone gotten rejected yet? Seems like everyone gets an interview or put on hold.

I second this. I thought I was in review for the longest time but when I relogged it updated my status. On hold as well

 

[slopes23]

All of you 6/30's and 7/1's who are stressing about no status change. I submitted on 6/28 and still have no status change, so get in line please.

 

[Hummus23]

Submitted 6/30. Placed on hold 7/18.
Seems like one week after being placed on hold, people receive IIs...
Has anyone not gotten an II?

As if I don't do that on the daily....

 

[ZymurgySurfer]

Logged out and logged back in again and my status finally changed to "on hold." Submitted June 30th

 

[MedSchoolBarbie]

Color me confused. So GWU just sent me an email saying I should seriously consider applying there and they saw my interests through medmar. But I sent the secondary to them on 7/2

Yup, got the same thing.... must be automated because we clicked something on AMCAS or somewhere else?

Still on hold. Submitted 6/29

 

[qszwdxefc]

Anyone else think that they do interview invites in batches and everyone's on hold until the next batch?

Submitted 6/28 and still on hold too

 

[medschoolhopeful11345]

Submitted 6/29, no status change. Do you think it's bad to have not been placed on hold?

 

[Terps1011]

Submitted 6/29, no status change. Do you think it's bad to have not been placed on hold?

Same situation.... my only guess is that our priority rating (or however they do it) is lower so they are reviewing our applications later.

Just a guess though

 

[alison92]

Does GW Med have an orchestra or music programs?

 

[khrisskhoras]

For "significant achievement outside the classroom", would putting an achievement related to teaching/tutoring count?

I used something very similar for that question (a tutoring accomplishment I'm proud of).

 

[slopes23]

II via email, never got a status change. Still says complete. Good luck everyone.

Were you ever "on hold"?

When did you submit and, if applicable, when were you put on hold?

 

[slopes23]

No I was never on hold. My status still shows complete. First day possible submission.

 

[nym9631]

Placed on hold today 🙁 I hope the next step would be II

 

[Mayday_]

It's still early! There's still time for an II!

When were you complete? If you don't mind me asking

 

[crazypilovee]

My first II! Complete 7/1/14, OOS 3.8x/32. Last time I checked my status three days ago, I wasn't on hold (it just said they've received my app or something along those lines?)
