Thank you!
I was complete in early July. I didn't hear anything until October. There was additional email between that time and today's II!
Rejection email just now OOS.
Good luck to those still waiting to hear back and congrats to those who just received an II!
Yo también.
Same here! Do we know if we are interviewing for the waitlist or are we interviewing for seats?
Did you select this Friday? If so, I look forward to meeting you!

There is no such thing as interviewing for the waitlist at this school.

Can I ask the origin of your signature?
I haven't posted on the FB page yet since I haven't gotten an apartment assignment yet but if any incoming male students might be interested in living in one of the 2 bedroom apartments in Woodlands PM me! Most notable thing is I have a small dog that will be living with me so obviously if you don't like dogs then you should probably look elsewhere

Thanks for this helpful tidbit of information! I am still under review pre-II and did not receive any emails (i.e. like the one @NUresearcher posted) since my completion email at the end of September. Hopefully those of us remaining will hear some positive news soon!Called admissions and was told that by next week those of us still under review (pre-II) should get an email notification about our status.
Has anyone heard anything from the waitlist so far?
I am also waiting... from what's happened on SDN, I don't think anyone has been accepted since December or early January... I've seen plenty of waitlists and rejections but no acceptances. Hopefully decisions are coming up soon?

Any recent II?
I thought my II was a joke, still hasn't set in... Anyone out there have any tips? Also recommendations for hotel/travel related things? I'm also assuming the 4/28 interviews are for the WL?
I have some questions for any current students that would be willing to help out.
How are most people approaching studying for classes/ Step 1 in general? Do you think classes are generally geared towards what you'll need to know for Step, or do you have some PHD profs that just want to teach some minutia that they're into? How much time do you get for dedicated step 1?
Do people find it effective to study for classes by using USMLE study material?
So it seems like we have like 6-7 weeks of dedicated study time or what? I've heard conflicting numbers. Is it also true that classwork tapers down towards the end?Depending on the class, there are some that teach more to the boards and some that teach random little facts (although I did have some minutia show up on my board exam that I wouldn't have known otherwise). Generally you'll want to do well in classes. Supplement second year with pathoma, first aid, sketchy, firecracker, and UWorld. During M2 year, classes end early May with some NBME exams scheduled until the middle of May. You have until clerkships begin to take STEP1, which I think is early Julyish. If you take STEP1 early, you get a long break.

So 5 weeks dedicated?I just looked at the M2 calendar. This year, their last lecture is May 3rd, their last NBME exam is on May 15th. Clerkships start 1st week of July. However, there is a 1 week clinical skills training prior to the start of clerkships for things like suturing and physical exam stuff. Depending on which week you're assigned, its either 1 week directly before or 2 weeks before.
Classes taper down in January. Towards March/April, there may only be a few lectures per week.
Where did you find this calendar? I've been trying to find the M1 calendar but I can't. Could you post the link?I just looked at the M2 calendar.

Damn it really seems to be unfair if you're given the first week, but I guess that's just the luck of the drawYes. 5-6 dedicated study time depending on which week you're assigned to do clinical skills.
I'm in that situationIs anyone still being currently reviewed and has not received an II yet?
