By that do you mean strictly stats superstars, or those with great stories/experiences too? I'm gonna try to remain hopeful!Tweets

UmichMed Mondays=interview offers for class #MichMed170 starting next week...can you see yourself in #AnnArbor yet? umhealth.me/1CEryBy
Sadly, with my stats, I'll be waiting awhile. They tend to take the superstars first.
It is usually the 36+ Mcatters!!Tweets

Well, I guess we'll have to wait for our turn!
Yup, brother didn't get an interview invite until Dec 2, for January, but he was out of the country in January, so he interviewed 2 days later (thankfully he was undergrad here, so no big deal).
mine says the same thing. I doubt it will change until either an interview is granted, or, if after reviewing your file, they feel you aren't on superstar-first-wave-of-II caliber, at which point I'd assume they switch it to "on hold," meaning they'll revisit your application at a later time.
Haha just watched the video that they included with the tweet...I think that the MS's perspective is going to be quite different than that of the undergrads depicted hahaTweets

We'll see when the II start rolling out. Good Luck to allMy best friend is starting here this fall and received one of the first IIs with a 34/3.7.
Your brother's experience is only n=1
NO. Every aspect of the med school application process is easily quantified into numbers and statistics.
See the tracker on the MD admission website. Lots of good info, they update this monthly as the season goes on.
I think it is the FIRST acceptance that goes to a U of M Undergrad. Let's go the CLass 170!!
Way later in the season for pre-II rejections. Post interview they give you an answer in about 3-4 weeks. Per twitter a couple of years ago:
Gotcha, thanks! And so the 2015 tracker will be replaced by a 2016 tracker on Monday, right?
We'll see. They usually get it up a few days after.
Perhaps they just accept enough people that the accepted students list is essentially a waitlist of its own. Because like the top applicants from all across the state of MI will be applying to UM and the top schools and just from that sample alone I would imagine a fair number end up going elsewhere
Haha I guess that comes with the 170 years of medical education!
In 2014, my brother's year, they emailed accepted students to offer them a deferment, the second year in a row they offered deferments (with financial incentives). His class is 177, which is bit over the target of 170 that year.
Wow, money given to defer haha? Sounds awesome....did your brother share how much they offered to give him?
Ya admittedly I would prolly take the offer cuz my SO would then graduate the May before I matriculate. Avoiding an entire year of a distance relationship is well worth the lost year haha. Of course I have to get an offer first, so I'll keep my fingers crossed starting next week!
No, he didn't take the deferment, but the rumor mill was around $10K to $20K. They only negotiated with you if you asked about the deferment.
Reminder this was class matriculating 2014. Check the thread last year to see if that year was over enrolled (which would have been a 3rd year in a row). I don't think it was, but I didn't watch last year's thread as much as the 2014 thread when brother applied.
Nothing on twitter today updating II going out.
