2018-2019 Sidney Kimmel Medical College at Thomas Jefferson

Mid Aug, Pre II

 

Tai Lopez doesnt need med school, Med schools need Tai Lopez.

 

Did you send any updates or anything?

 

I just want my axe... please SKMC....give me closure

 

Yes, 1

 

But at the end of the day, my SAT scores probably weren't high enough

 

Did they usually pull from high priority WL before May?

is having alumni connections helpful for this school?

 

I have an interview next week, any tips?

 

Don't stress, it's incredibly chill. Just go in knowing your app and you should be fine.

 

Just got an II from Jeff, they had dates into March - none in January anymore.

 

Complete date? Did you send an update?

 

8/21, OOS, above median stats

I sent two updates - both relatively recently

 

any in february? or just march

 

Multiple in Feb and March - none in April

 

don’t they interview only til march anyway?

 

Nope

 

Thank you! Wishing you the best of luck on the interview!

 

Any of my mid-December interview peeps hear back yet?

 

got an ii today, only two dates available in march. complete in july, OOS, slightly above median stats. Sent an update in mid december - i guess they really work!!

 

In state applicant, above median stats, submitted September, I feel like I can pretty much kiss the idea of an II goodbye

 

congrats! where did you send the update?

 

What if you have no updates in your life? What if you've been doing the same darn thing since the primaries? Does that hurt you


Hey Admin,

Howya? New year but old me. Just wanted to let you know I'm still interested *awkwardness*

Anxious Applicant

 

I’ve never sent an update to any school throughout this cycle so that won’t hurt you

 

Same. Just hoping this school is no different

When was the last time they sent an A? Long wait...

Hey all, interviewing here this week. I know the faculty interview is open & the student is closed but was wondering what the lengths of each typically is...30 minutes? An hour? Thanks in advance!

 

Who did you address your update to?

 

You can either attach an unofficial transcript or you can just write it in the email that you are sending to admissions

 

Hi! Yeah so the student interview is 30 minutes, and the faculty may be between 40 min to an hour (sometimes shorter). Good luck for your interview!

 

They may, but most of the movement happens in May. But, there are times when they start pulling earlier than that

 

You can address it to the Admissions Committee

 

Hey Chip, you seem to be 'in the know.' Do you have any idea how long it'll be until I hear back from this school? I interviewed in mid-Dec but the billion holidays might have shifted things a bit. Just trying to figure out when I should expect an A or a fat R. I'm hoping/praying it'll be this week.

 

Usually within 5 weeks. It just depends on when your faculty interviewer can make the committee meetings, which are held weekly on Wednesdays.

 

Do you know if there've been any meetings in the past few weeks? It sounds like I should expect to hear back by next week and, if not then, by the end of the month. Thank you!

 

Sending an update to Jeff later this week, looking to include my new positions in my work but outside of that, not much to update on.

Here’s to hoping

Sent update about 3 weeks ago. Complete first week of august IS, LM 70. Silence still

 

Yeah so Dr. Strange is right, it depends on when your faculty interviewer actually makes the meetings. There are usually meetings every week (not including the holidays), so as long as your interviewer makes the meetings soon you should hopefully hear back soon. I hope this helps! Good luck!

 

Can't wait, interview tomorrow!

 

Good luck!

 

They were probably off for two weeks for the holidays. I'm just guessing though. I graduated two years ago lol

 

Hey y'all! Have any of you heard any post-interview decisions from SKMC today? I interviewed 11/28 and still have not yet received a decision... I had felt almost certain I was going to hear back today but still radio silence and I assume the admissions office closes at 5pm

 

Nothing yesterday..also waiting. Hang in there. Hope we hear back soon

 

Hoping they're still considering my application... submitted an update letter 2-3 weeks ago. Would like to see how Philly is like.

 

Got the call, Accepted today

 

II today!! Gave up hope that I was going to hear anything back. I sent an update in yesterday and I guess that gave my app the boost it needed

 

congrats, when we’re you complete

 

Hi everyone! I just got an interview invitation today and I'm super excited, it's one of my top choices. Can anyone who interviewed here give me some advice or info about the interview day? Anything would be super appreciated, Thanks!

 

It was a fantastic day with amazing food! There is a short student “interview” that is very laid back and then another interview with facilty. My experiece was very laidback and conversational. My advice is to go through the sdn interview feedback to go through questions asked in the past. Good luck!
