In their admissions info packet I saw that they want two letters, not three, if you are submitting individual letters.
I know, I just need to figure out how to designate letters as “no longer being sent” on Amcas

+1 please update if you have any luck with this.
On the Amcas guide it says that’s above the letter descriptions on the letter of ealuation section you should see the following
"A notice above the letter descriptions reads as follows: “Medical schools need to know if you no longer plan on having specific letters sent to AMCAS. If one or more of your letters listed below is not going to be sent to AMCAS, click here.”
Do you see it?
Oh I see, so there is no way to recall letters that have been already designated and subsequently sent to a school though?
Unfortunately no. So you actually see it? I don’t
I think that it is only visible if your letter writer has not submitted the letter yet. I did not see it since all of my letters have been sent
Last year they started on August 8th from what I remember

Anyone have any insight on whether or not I should submit a secondary as an OOS applicant? I seem to find conflicting info on whether or not downstate is a very state heavy school on MSAR vs. SDN vs. their own website etc.
Thank you!
Thank you!
Think it's roughly 1/4-1/3 OOS but that's based on a vague recollection from orientation 4 years ago and could be completely wrong. Def worth applying imo.
II yesterday. IS. Complete July 5. Stats in signature.
Congrats! When do they have you scheduled to interview? I also see that you're a re-applicant. Have you interviewed at this school before by any chance?
Congrats!! Was it over the phone or through email?
No, I never interviewed at SUNY-Downstate. I was an international resident this time last year, only applied to a few schools.
Edit: Early September invite, just one date. I will have to re-schedule, so I e-mailed them availability. Looking at last year's thread, it looks like they prefer e-mails to reschedule over phone calls, and will just tell you to e-mail them over the phone, lol.

Sounds like all II have been IS so far?
Is there a notification past "Your Online Supplemental has been completed and your payment has been made. Your Online Supplemental has been submitted to the Office of Admissions for further processing." or is that the complete page? And does this school not send complete emails?
woah speak of the devil just got an email from them despite having that page up for a few days now! I'll have to ask you about an interview in a few weeks too 😉

Congrats!!! When were you complete?
Late July!
To those that got II's are you IS or OOS?
When did you interview and can you give us a idea of what your IS/OOS breakdown was in your interview cohort? Much appreciated.
What is the peer to peer?
II today! Complete 8/15!
Close to home 😀

Received an II but withdrew my application. Best of luck everyone!
Nice, can I ask what your stats are? Trying to figure out if it’s rolling or they stratify according to Mcat/GPA
They're in my sig. If you want exact stats PM me.

You could always just show up for one of the interview days uninvited and just play it off cool

Any news from good 'ole Brooklyn?
Interviewing in two weeks. Not sure whether to commute via train or car. I wonder how the parking is
