Please discuss additional information not addressed in your application that you feel is important for the screening committee to know in reviewing your application (i.e. personal experiences, examples of resilience, discrepancies in academic history, etc...). (1500 characters) - so what is the verdict in terms of this being optional? should i squeeze in a why njms essay or just leave it blank?

 

[Dr.M79]

Just got a II! scheduled for 8/19
Applied 7/27, LizzyM ~ 78, IS

Hey guys
Just a quick question, for the people who have been accepted to NJMS through EDP, did you guys take the old MCAT or the new MCAT?
Because it seems like, they are having difficulties judging the New MCAT Scores.

Replies would be greatly appreciated.

 

[dcnetsfan77]

Just got the call!!! Im in! So thankful 🙂

I took the old MCAT.

 

[TheKspree]

I took the old MCAT.

I thought so. Do you know anybody who has been accepted to NJMS this cycle with the New MCAT Score?

Thanks for the reply

 

[AgentQuestion]

Out of curiosity, is everyone with IIs IS?

 

[DezBryant]

On their website, it says regular decision acceptances are sent out starting October 15th. Is this true? Has anyone gotten in already through RD? Or is everyone so far solely ED?

All med schools can only start sending out RD acceptances on 10/15.

I'm in-state, yes.

 

[A7X]

Has anyone else heard from NJMS? Seems like they've been silent for a while

 

[dcnetsfan77]

I think they're in a weird divide between EDP and regular applicants

 

[MCATUMOR]

[#nocreativeability]

[MCATUMOR]

Yep

 

[evansh]

Did you guys ever get an application complete email, or just a confirmation of secondary submission??

 

[A7X]

No app complete email, just the secondary confirmation email. I don't think there's a app complete email, unless someone else got one?

 

[HipHopDancing]

[soswim]

congrats to everyone who was accepted and who received IIs!

did anyone receive an email stating that their application was complete? I submitted my secondary before my letters were sent in so I received an email saying they received my secondary. Do they send another email out when your application is actually complete?

 

[USSWasteland]

II yesterday! IS, regular decision, complete in late July, ~3.6/521. Super excited because the scheduling worked out to where I was going to be home on a long weekend anyways.
