thank you! is it frowned upon mentioning the submitted publications or wait to see if theyre published and send another update?

No problem at all! You can always say that there is a "possibility that it gets published soon". And, when it does you can send that in as an update as well.

Has there historically been any waitlist movement for the high-priority waitlist before April 30th? Or does the wait just extend until then typically?

This is a hard question to answer. I would say that there is some movement before the April 30th deadline, but I would say that a lot of movement happens after people have made final decisions on schools.

Submitted my secondary in July and haven't heard anything back. Is that basically a rejection at this point or do they still give out interviews?

Nope, they interview really late into the season. They send Rs in waves so it's not over until it's over.

Hello, I was just going through the curriculum for SKMC and was curious about the course material for

1) "Introduction to Foundations of Medicine"

2) host defense/blood (I assume this refers to the immune system)

 

[frogman63]

Has SKMC sent out any rejections or do they wait until the end of the cycle? I submitted my secondary on 08/14 with radio silence since. I am just trying to gauge my standing.

Yep, they do it in batches throughout the cycle.

Hi! Yeah so introduction to foundations of medicine is kind of covering the basics of inflammation, clinical skills, embryology, etc. Host defense and blood is the first real system you learn and that is the immune system.

[beexoxo]

sorry if this has been asked already but can I send my previous semester grades as an update? and if so do you guys think if i got mostly A's but also a B and a B+ that it might not actually help me out to send in those grades? im very conflicted bc the A's are decently impressive given the subject matter i just couldn't pull through on the other two

To send an update of Fall semester grades, would we just attach an unofficial transcript in pdf form and email admissions/upload on portal?

 

[keelhaul]

Silly question, but for updates do we just attach a document to an email to the admissions email address? Or is there a way to upload things to the portal?
