Anyone knows the statistics regarding how many people they grant interviews vs how many candidates they actually accept?
Hey Guys I would really appreciate some info about those who they are interviewing. Now i turned my secondary in on the 3rd of Aug (initial app in on first day) , But I am in State in fact live very close to the University. I see many ppl have gotten IIs. This has me worried. I am fairly competitive and exceed all the median criteria of the University (This has me very confused as why I have heard nothing yet). I am wondering whether most of the II that are being sent out are Out of State or In State. Can some of the people who got II please let me know whether they are OOS or IS?
Any movement for anyone? It's been silent here..
Silence is Golden!!!! At least it is not a Reject
Sorry to hear that When were you completed?Rejected just now happy Friday to me!
8/12Sorry to hear that When were you completed?
Sorry to hear that. Are you an URM?Out of state app LizzyM 70 submitted 08/12 annndddddddddd rejjjeecctteeddd today.
Has anyone received a II and scored in the 490- 499 range on the MCAT?
You have about a 37.8% chance of matriculating into a US MD program (https://www.aamc.org/download/321514/data/factstable25-2.pdf) . Not competitive but honestly you never know till you try. But if you haven't applied already, don't bother. If I were you, I probably would use a year to retake my MCAT. And a late application...ooo..... :/ IDK.I have a question, and I would appreciate an honest answer (I don't mind bluntness). I need to know if I have any chance of receiving a secondary, interview, acceptance from Meharry. I have a low MCAT score, and I know it's not indicative of my ability, but I fear that it plus my late application will ruin my chances completely.
Undergrad Stats/Info:
URM
In-state
From medically underserved area
496 MCAT (really sucks, because I didn't get a chance to take the old one and had very little prep for the new one...I was scoring 28+ on old practice tests from Kaplan and AAMC, with a 24 being my lowest ever)
~ 3.8 cum GPA (strong upward trend, made 3 Bs from sophomore to senior year); ~ 3.7 sci GPA
3 years research experience (some at my undergrad, two summers at two top 10 research institutions), 1 first author publication
Many hours of community service, volunteer work, tutoring, some shadowing (not a ton)
President of organization for 2 years, involved in many other things on campus (take my word for it)
Former college athlete
Won many department and research-based awards
Post Grad:
Currently in competitive post-bacc research program at top institution
Do I have any chance, at all?
Thank you!In 2014 86 students matched at a rate of 88%. They do allow some students to 'decel' over five years. When I visited the campus I was told they had an attrition rate of 4%, higher than average for allopathic schools.
I concur with Goro! It is worth giving it a shot. You honestly never know till you know.My AMCAS is verified, but I'm just now getting my MCAT score back. I have already added Meharry to my list of schools. Do you think Meharry will give me a chance?
Or at least a secondary?
And no, this program is strictly research-based.
Does anyone know when the next round of interviews come out? My secondary was completed on 9/20.
Just received my secondary today!
Reeeeeeejected.
Secondary submitted late August.
Lizzy 69.
Non-URM.
Oh well.
It's okay, I've got some other leads that lessen the sting!I'm sorry! Was this pre-interview or post-interview? And email or snail mail?
It's okay, I've got some other leads that lessen the sting!
It was pre-interview and sent via email! Best of luck to you!
I guess I need to move on. Completed 8/5
sorry to hear! what was the time frame from completion to rejection if you don't mind me asking?OOS ORM, I don't fully understand why I was rejected. I thought that I fit their mission, had stats on the higher end of their average matriculants, wrote what I thought was a compelling secondary. Oh well, I guess it just wasn't meant to be. Best of luck everybody!
II here for Oct. 5th also.
Excited to (probably unknowingly) meet you all!
Best of luck to everyone
Anyone interviewing here tomorrow and want to do something afterwards?
Hey AJ shoot me a message, I am fairly new here and unable to figure out how. I'm currently in West NashvilleI'd be down
