Submitted mid July and got the 2 week email then too. Still not complete.
Sumbitted 7/22 and received a complete email on 8/9.
It's school dependent, but some places you're not allowed to do such.

You don't have time for that. You only get 90 seconds between stations.
writing down notes was an important part of all the mmi's i've attended. though they will provide you with the notepaper and pencils.
what do you mean by an important part? They dont care about what you write right?
nono they're just to help you organize your thoughts. they get shredded after.

Lol darn! Are you morning or afternoon?
afternoon. I'm a west coast night owl I was afraid the jet lag would kill me if I did morning 😉
If you scroll through the thread you'll see that plenty of other ppl who submitted end of July have yet to receive completion emails!

Interviewed here yesterday. I was blown away by this school.
In a good way?
I honestly liked it here a lot. The people are so nice and the school seems really invested in the students which I loved. Great atmosphere, very receptive and friendly.
Samesies
In the best way possible. I honestly would forgo an acceptance from my instate schools over an acceptance from Rosalind. The current students and admissions staff were very warm and hospitable. The school's infrastructure looked new and opened. The only negative thing that I could think of would be the area around the school and needing a car to navigate across the suburbs. I don't understand why Rosalind has a SDN ranking of 1. I have interviewed at schools with higher ranking and those schools do not come close to this school.
Anyone who interviewed on Friday, are you going to send a thank you email to admissions?
was thinking about sending a card by mail? more personal, perhaps.
is this stuff common in the states? our interviews are very formal in canada and i would never think to contact anyone from the school save for an issue or application error.
The interviews are also formal in the States. I am not sure how often applicants send a note/email, but I have seen several threads on this topic in the past. I have found this article written by the associate dean of admissions at Case Western: http://www.usnews.com/education/blo...ite-a-medical-school-interview-thank-you-note.
I usually would not bother with writing a letter, but Rosalind really stood out.
Complete date?
I submitted my application July 28th with a Lizzy M of 71-72and haven't heard back at all should I be worried ?

Submitted sometime in July, got the complete email 08/09.
In previous years, admissions did not accept thank you e-mails/letters.
Thank you for letting me know. I tried searching on their website, but I had no luck finding an answer.

I submitted before then and still do not have one
Somebody asked during my post-interview lunch last week. They are receptive to thank you letters but they specifically stated that they will not play any role in your decision!
Can confirm. I was the one who asked the question, haha.
