Mine said something along the lines of "your file is under review and if granted an interview you will be notified by email"

oh :/

Did you get the email? I really wanted to submit earlier, but I also didn't want a bad grade in m


Dang, is that how long it's taking? I'm dying to know when I'll be complete. I guess turning it in at the beginning of this week does not bode well.

With >7300 applications received so far, things take a while...

II this afternoon. Complete 8/2. 513/3.94 cGPA/4.0 sGPA OOS.

Congrats on the II. May I ask about your extra curricular in brief? Thanks

I finally got the link to work to check my stats (Firefox isn't working on my computer and safari is slow). Just knowing I can actually check my status is helpful.

Hi Everyone!

I'm sorry for the spammy post in all the school specific threads 🙁 - but I wanted to plug my interview invite tracker! If you haven't seen it, I'm compiling data on the current application cycle to reproduce planeblue's exercise (Planeblue's Interview Invite Tracker)

and get some info on GPA/MCAT, IS/OOS, and URM/ORM for those receiving invites. Maybe we can use it to help future applicants build better school lists!


If you'd like to add info on your interview invite to Wake and any others and haven't already, fill out the Google Form here - 2017/18 MD Interview Invite Tracker

If you have already - a tremendous thanks to you!

Also, for those who haven't received an II yet - hang in there! It is still incredibly early and there are plenty more invites coming our way!

For the challenges essay, did you write about one challenge in particular or talk about a few? Something about the question wording is making me overthink it lmao

I talked about one challenge how I lost 70lbs in 6 months but it was a lot to write about so I didn't have to do a few challenges...I would probably try to find one substantial one where you can write about just one tho

 

[EAGLESK93]

Good luck to those with interviews thus far 🙂

Has anyone's application status changed since they submitted a secondary? Mine changed to "You will be receiving notification of your application status by e-mail."

I have this

Your application is complete and will be reviewed continuously throughout the interview season. Interviews are by invitation from September to March. If you are invited, you will receive a e-mail or phone call to schedule an interview.

I have that too now. This feels like a bad sign.

Apparently everything is a bad sign when you're on SDN 😱

I had that and then I got an interview invite.

 

[boogiecousins94]

it probably just means they finished reviewing your app and you'll either get interview or rejected

what does +1 mean? assuming it means II?

 

[TheBiologist]

what does +1 mean? assuming it means II?

it just means "the same" as the person they are replying too; so it could mean anything

if I said "+1" in response to a rejection, that means I got a rejection as well

 

[DBC03]

Nah - we all are now officially being reviewed. The email gives everyone a freak out moment as we thought it might be more.

Ah, I thought he was wondering about that particular thread of +1s.

Does anyone know when will WF send out the interview invites?

anyone else still waiting to just get the secondary?

When were you verified? According to msar, everyone who applies here gets a secondary. You could call the admissions office and ask if there was a delay in getting you your app.

I was verified on June 15. Didn't send my primary to them right away, but I added them to my AMCAS about 2-3 weeks ago. I thought there was a consensus that they were sending them out in batches, so I've just been waiting patiently. I guess I'll give them a call tomorrow.

 

[echo5050]

Finally submitted my secondary! A little over 3 weeks after receipt, hope they don't look negatively on that

Congrats to everyone with IIs!

After you call can you let us know what they say @raffalaffi? I added them to my AMCAS about a week ago and haven't received a secondary either. All my other secondaries came in within 3 days of getting verified in mid-July.

I called them. They didn't ask my specific information or anything, but just told me the same thing everyone else has been saying: It's sent out in batches and that I should be receiving it relatively soon.

Does Wake Forest accept updates?

 

[EAGLESK93]

Does Wake Forest accept updates?

"Wake Forest does not accept grade updates. Any other updates may be emailed to [email protected] but we cannot guarantee they will be reviewed." Per their email

 

[raffalaffi]

Just received a reminder email from Wake forest to complete the secondary.....even though they never sent me the secondary -_-...and of course the reminder email doesn't even contain my login credentials.
