When did you interview and what is your LizzyM if you don't mind me asking?

 

[Lifelong_Learner_8]

127/131
Of the 4 who did not match after the NRMP match, 1 matched after SOAP, 2 extended, and 1 decided not to go on clinically

Thanks! What do you mean by "extended"?

 

[joeschmoejohndoe]

Does anyone know where admitted students are supposed to send their transcripts to?

 

[sampierce]

Thanks! What do you mean by "extended"?

Extended medical school for a 5th year to do more clinical rotations and/or research.

By the way, do any accepted students know when Second Look day is this year?

Anyone still have hope with post II silence?

Anyone still have hope with post II silence?

I wouldn't give up hope if I were you! I was feeling the same way, with silence after my September interview, but I just heard back Monday that I've been waitlisted. And there should be at least some waitlist movement in the coming months! I hope that you get a response soon.

It's hard to say. I know someone who interviewed in February who heard back with an acceptance a couple of weeks ago. But that student is a bit of a rock star so...

And on here someone mentioned the waitlist email indicating the class is full... but who knows?

Has anyone else still not heard back after a September interview? This wait is really making me crazy. I sent an update and a letter of intent, but still nothing 🙁. I don't know whether I should just be patient or continue to send stuff or call.

Same here, September interview. I called for an update and all they said was they would email me when a decision was made 🙁

40 people just dropped out of Umass medical school facebook page. Hoping for some movement soon >.<

[rapbang]

Last week it was 200+ I believe

 

[browneyes1000]

Really? Hate to say I think it has been around the ~160ish range for the past week or so. Yes, I'm neurotic and have been checking regularly.

People are definitely being added periodically so I'm assuming decisions are going out, just not to anyone who posts on here...

 

[paracarli]

WLed about a week ago, completed early August and interviewed 2/27. LizzyM 83ish (but terrible ECs and incorrectly done letters of rec). Withdrew my name and will be attending my state school, good luck to everyone else!

 

[hwola]

WLed yesterday! Interviewed late September, LizzyM 70ish

Any rejections here? Post interview?

Rejected post-II here. I'm pretty sure I must have blacked out and gone on a racist tirade in one of the MMI stations or something.

Sorry to hear, did you hear back today// is my post-II rejection coming? 🙁

 

[amerrydeath]

Only after refreshing this thread for the ~1000th time today did I notice Massachusetts is spelled wrong...

Seriously?? What is the holdup?

 

[PRMDSTU]

Got waitlisted today... I took my name off the list. Hopefully that opens up a spot for someone who hasn't heard yet!

Sorry to hear that, what time did you get an email?

 

[dukesilver93]

About 10am this morning. Stings less since I have another acceptance, but this was my top choice so also sucks.

 

[nashalimarie]

Woohoo rejected....

 

[happypenguin28]

Also rejected by email this morning - IS, Lizzy 74, and interviewed in December so I guess I must really, really suck at MMI or something? I'm already set to go someplace else and probably wouldn't have picked UMass even if I eventually got in, but it still stings to get flat out rejected from my state school and not even waitlisted.

Man this process is so random. Congrats to everyone who got in/is attending and good luck to those of you still waiting to hear!
