Hang in there, it's a long process that requires lots of waiting but in the end all you can do is wait! And for whatever it's worth as long as they haven't rejected you, you still in the run.
If anyone interviewing on 10/24 needs a ride let me know. I'll be staying at a house close by that Thursday night, but if you're staying at a hotel in the downtown area I can pick you up Friday morning. I'm also willing to give rides to the airport if anyone is leaving right afterwards.
I'm getting excited for this! 🙂

I was just offered an interview! 🙂
November 21, 2014. Is anyone attending this date?!?!
It's supposed to be for those interested in RUM or are from a rural area. Either way, I'm pumped for the fact that I even got an interview! This is my top choice school!

I don't need a ride, but I'll be there as well! Can't wait[emoji1]
Hello, I think I might take you on the offer. I was planning to take public transporation from an America's best inn like 4 miles away. And thank you for such a nice offer.
That should be easy enough, I definitely don't mind. 🙂 Send me a message sometime between now and then and we'll figure out what time I should get you. I'm so excited! Only a couple more weeks!
Hi guys! anyone interviewing oct 31?
I think they would view that as an "update" though.. When I talked with the admissions dean a few weeks ago he said that when you submit the secondary the admissions committee assumes you've put your best out there for them to assess.

Good luck! Please let us know how it goes. I'll be interviewing next Friday.
The MMIs felt pretty challenging compared to others that I have had, but that may be because this was my first MMI experience. No need to research specific topics or anything beforehand, just be prepared to take a stance on certain topics and defend your stance. The day also feels a bit long, but it didn't feel like time was wasted at all. Just be yourself, be ready for the whirlwind that is the MMI, and -- most importantly -- don't forget to have a little fun!

Has anyone received a hold? Does this school place people on hold and then wait until May to reject them?
Just got rejected today. 3.85 GPA, 33 MCAT, Good extracurriculars. Parents just became in-state MI residents (I live OOS)
Just put on hold. Complete 7/22.
I was just put on hold. OOS with LizzyM = 76
Were you both rejected pre or post-interview? You both have great stats! I'm sure you'll both receive an acceptance somewhere!!
Received a hold for interview decision today. Not sure what to think.
Pre-interview
Thanks for the encouragement!

Same. Not sure how to interpret this
Me too!! People are getting rejected pre-interview apparently, so hopefully a hold isn't a death sentence!! Positive thoughts!! 🙄

complete early august... nothing but silence
Long time lurker, first time poster.
Accepted today! I'm ecstatic! I know stats will be wanted so here they are.
3.56 GPA - 30 MCAT (10-10-10) - Diversity in my E.C. with strong volunteering and research. Graduated from Michigan State.
Primary Application Processed: June 11
Secondary In: July 15
Interview: Sept 26
However, I think its important to post all of the MCAT's that I took. Yeah the first two suck, but I didn't give up. I recognized an error in my study technique and I fixed it between 2 and 3.
MCAT#3 - 30 (10-10-10)
MCAT#2 - 26 (7-10-9)
MCAT#1 - 24 (6-8-10)
Good luck to all of you. Never give up and never settle.

Congrats Big Burd and Haas! I got an acceptance today, too!
I wasn't expecting today to be a decision day so it took me a second to process what he was saying!
Stats: MCAT 30, uGPA 3.6, grad school GPA 3.9, 2 publications, extensive research with underserved pops. Non Trad, IS

9/26 interview group
9/26 interview group
Is the one on one interview like other typical interviews?
No, it's 1 on 1 with a student. It also felt more structured.

I am! 🙂
Can I ask what you did to change your study technique? I took 2 MCATs and received the same scores.
Thanks!
