Is the post II acceptance rate really around 60% still? Seems like vast majority of people are put on acceptance range, which is what the email also says, and that waitlist movement happens but is small.

Also where did you get the 60% number?

The acceptance range (waitlist) email haha

Based on that number seems like there should be some movement from the waitlist but we probably wont know until may . Also when did you interview?

 

[honey&champagne]

accepted yesterday! interviewed 9/11

Hi! Does anyone know if Tulane is receptive to post-II LOI's? My friend was put in the "Accepted Range" category and was wondering if an LOI would help her case- thank you!

I've always heard that there's no point in sending an LOI until the spring ..

Anyone know if they rank during the preclinical years?

 

[MTVL]

Anyone know if they rank during the preclinical years?

They report quartiles (ie you'll know if you're top 25%, 50% etc but not the exact rank within the quartile)

Edit: didn't read careully, I don't think they report anything for pre clinical

 

[Hirro]

Edit: didn't read careully, I don't think they report anything for pre clinical

They don't. It's a very low-stress environment.

 

[AspiringDoc169]

Anyone know if they rank during the preclinical years?

I think from what the students said there, it's pass/fail grading with quartile ranking.

 

[ParrotFish]

Anyone know if they rank during the preclinical years?

Quartile rank when you apply for residency. It is skewed heavily toward your clinical years, so while preclinical grades are included in the calculation, they are next to irrelevant because they are so outweighed by clinical years.

[goriku671]

It says all three of my LORs have been received but i still have a red ! and my files is marked incomplete and "in progress"

What is the turn around after being under review? Thank you!

 

[KikoClara23]

What is the turn around after being under review? Thank you!

They have this on their website:

Rejection Notice:

• We strive to email rejection notices within 3- 5 weeks of an application being complete
• Volume is heavy from October-December and it may take 4-5 weeks for the notice to be sent.

Yes, I submitted a few weeks before that and I got put under review a few weeks ago
