Does anyone know if Meharry provides stethoscopes for its medical students? If it doesn't, which one is recommended for medical students?

Does anyone know where I can find the match results for Meharry this year and previous years? (There's YouTube videos of their match day, but I want the actual match list, thanks)

Got wait listed today from Monday interview. I Though I did well in the interview. smh.

I hope you hear good news soon. You feel you did well on the interview.

What feedback did they give you to make you think you did well? (e.g. bodily posture, facial expressions, verbiage)

How did you practice for the interview?

Well, I had a great conversation with both my interviewes. I was able to answer all their questions smoothly. We just clicked right away and I found my self having passionate conversation about my background and medicine. Try not to be nervous.

One of the my interviewers told me straight to my face that he liked me and he will strongly recommend me to the committee.
 
Does anyone know until when interviews are held? Is April 15 the last interview date? Complete since October with silence.
 
Finally heard back with a rejection. Had silence since September, why did they feel the need to drag it out for 7 months? Oh well, still have other MD acceptances to fall back on. Good luck to everyone else still in silence!

Oh wow, I'm still waiting but I guess I'll get the rejection soon!
 
Last interviews will be next week. Around 7000 applicants, only 200 got interviews. Accepts 105. If you are on waitlist, the said don't worry at all. Huge turnover rate for the waitlists. Extremely laid back faculty and day. Nothing to worry about

Can anyone provide any advice? I really appreciate any advice/perspectives on this
I have a lizzy M of 63.6, MCAT of 497, GPA 3.96, oos. and an immediate family member that previously attended/graduated from meharry. I sent back a secondary in January, and since then I've heard nothing, no emails from meharry or anything. I called them last week and they said they can't give out anything over the phone about my status, but that they already had their last set of interviews, and that they were sending out decisions last week, but I still did not receive any communication from them. Do I call them back? Or just wait?

I'm sorry my friend, but it seems like you've been rejected. I'm in the same situation, no II but no rejection either. If they have for sure completed their interviews, then it seems we are done for Meharry this cycle

In previous years people started coming off the waitlist around April 28th which is literally this week. So hopefully movement starts this week.

Yeah, that's what I'm thinking- I believe that the deadline for people with multiple acceptances to choose a school is May 1. I suspect in the days leading to May 1 and the days after, we'll see waitlist movement.

Praying for some waitlist movement...it's nerve racking because I have heard some years there is so much....and then some like last year(?) there is barely any.
