11/4, they are supposed to get your decision back within 3 weeks or less, my guess is they gave out decisions a little bit early considering the Thanksgiving holidaycongratulations !! when did you interview?

are there any pianos?The school is gorgeous. You're willing to change your whole application plan based off a couple of sour posts, thus ignoring the years' worth of other posts praising the beautiful campus?
We have one of the best sim centers you'll ever see. The building was fully rehabbed within the last 5 years. I study in a meeting room that's nicer than the conference rooms I used to use at the two Fortune 500s I worked for. We have a huge amazing courtyard that's fantastic for laying in the sun and enjoying lunch.
My advice? Ignore SDN.
are there any pianos?
No way!! Awesome I love pianoYes, and people often stop and play by the entrance. (One year the head of the pediatrics department played holiday carols and the students sang ... it was all kinds of adorable)
Hmmm, does anyone know when WMed lets people know about merit scholarships?
Also, can any current students comment on the amount of team/group-based learning that goes on? As someone who didn't like group projects in college, I'm wondering if I'd be unhappy at WMed because of this.
It's different than college group projects. In college, there was the added stress of a grade at the end and not everyone was necessarily interested in doing work. In med school, you're surrounded by other folks who carried the weight for their college project teams, so you can assume everyone is at least going to put in half effort. Bonus: for TBLs, there's no project to complete; you just sit together for 2-3 hours and work through cases.
That said, instructors are adding more and more TBL events. When they're done right, it's not so bad. When they're not done right, the old saying of "half the learning in twice the time" hits a little too close to home.
If your choice is coming to WMed and doing TBLs or not going to med school, I think the answer is obvious.
If it's between WMed and another school that doesn't do TBL (does that even exist?), then it may be a factor to consider.
As an M2, my advice would be to not even worry about whether or not a curriculum includes TBLs. Worry about the more important things, like opportunities for students to get involved in research, complete away electives to boost residency applications, and success on Step 1.
Email them to admissions office.Does anyone know the procedure for update letters? I can't find anything in the update procedure

Wooo congrats! That gives me so much hope! I was also waitlisted and interviewed on 11/4. Guess I didn't get in during this adcom meeting, hopefully I'll get accepted on the next one.
Does that mean they're done interviewing if they're already taking people off the WL?
