Rejected just now. Did not even get the chance to take my CASPer which I am signed up to take today. Thanks Tulane for making me spend $20 that I did not have to.

What the heck? I'm sorry you guys. When were you complete? It's still so early and I'm sure you both will have amazing cycles.
And also the expensive secondary fee as opposed to it being waived at other schools. Still $62.50 with FAP. Rejected OOS, complete 6/30
Anyone knows aprox how many acceptance offers they give out of the interview pool?
Still in progress with the red exclamation point (complete 7/21)
Sorry for the rejections and congrats to the II's!

you didn't get a clear answer but in case you haven't submitted it yet, no. south asians are not URM. if you use the argument of partition and wars then every south asian would be URM lol, as would Japanese folks because of the internment camps, chinese folks because of the exclusion act, etc.
there's no denying that we are minorities in the context of the united states but within medical school student bodies nation-wide, the point of the term URM is that you must be a minority and also underrepresented in comparison to the % your demographic makes up in the US pop. Asians make up about 5% of the US pop. and more than 5% of med school student bodies.
JUST GOT AN INTERVIEW BUT MY CASPER IS IN 3 MINUTES SHOULD I JUST NOT TAKE IT / RESCHEDULE?!
Congrats , I would take it
When were you complete?

Check on the MSAR, all the info is on there
I AM TOO!! It's really frustrating... I'm not even sure what an "available" date looks like...
The MSAR says number matriculated. Not acceptance offers.
Anybody complete on 7/7 or after and get an II yet?
First rejection today! (OOS, 519 MCAT, 3.6 cGPA)
where did you go to college? when did you submit
Sigh, it hurts to see people with similar stats as me get a II. As mentioned earlier, rejected.
For the people getting rejections or even interviews...are those all people who submitted early July basically? I submitted about a week (maybe less ago) so I guess I won't be hearing back from them for a while. I don't know how speedily they're moving chronologically
UVA, submitted secondary 6/28
I am beginning to see how stats don't matter and how random the process is . I guess it's a matter of "fit". Am sure you will find your fit in other places . It's still pretty early in the cycle

Hopefully. Thanks! Good luck to you.
Thank you !
II; submitted 6/30, complete 7/7. OOS, reapplicant, 514 MCAT, 3.98 cGPA, 3.96 sGPA.
I'm not sure I would go so far as to say that the process is "random". While they don't just choose people with high number stats, there are lots of components of each applicant taken into consideration (i.e. personal statements, secondary answers, work/activities). And yes, most schools are looking for someone they believe will be a good "fit"
When were you guys able to schedule the interview? I only see dates in November!
Oh yeah there are many factors that are taken into account, I meant random from our perspective as we will never know how it works
So were you able to schedule your interview for , what was the first available date?

If you haven't figured it out all ready, I had to cycle through a couple of months before I found dates that said "available" in bold letters. The earliest I saw on Monday was for October.
I have the same thing and I submitted around the same time… I'm worried as well but I am not scheduled for a retake so not sure.
