looks like ~10% according to MSAR

I think MSAR only shows the number of verified primary applications vs interviewed. My question is really about how many of those who complete secondaries would be invited to interview.

After my comment I checked their MSAR and only found this info^

Data from this doc shows ~4000 secondaries sent with 500 interviews offered. Not sure what year this info is from.

~7000 applicants, 3000 secondaries, 480 II, 110 offers and 100 waitlist

This is what they shared with this year's interviewees. So 16%

Looks like the secondary invite was a pretty substantial screen. Good to know and thanks for posting this!

Can I get some feedback on my answer to this question: Discuss any elements of your application that you feel might be concerning to the Admissions Committee. I'm not sure if I have approached this question correctly? Should I post it here or should I personally message someone?

To any schools that asked me this, I address the reasons why I had lower than average GPA and a grade dip.

Does anyone know if they accept a committee letter?

That’s a bit discouraging. Praying for a II

Interviewed last week:
- Host program is a bit slow to get back to you (found out 2 days before my interview that I had a host, I already booked an AirBnB, I stayed with my host day two and he was super nice/helpful)
- Clinic tour is super cool, but staying an extra day kinda sucked, esp after the interview.
- School/Staff/Students were SUPER NICE. They really stressed how the school felt like a family and you could really feel that.
- This was my first time applying, first interview, and first MMI. I have no idea how they thought I performed but I can say they try their hardest to make it stress-free.
- Overall great interview experience (granted I have no baseline to compare it to)

Good luck to everyone who is waiting on an II, to interview, or for their decision!

[osalas]

Anyone know anything about their interview reschedule policy? When I went to schedule my interview there was only one date so I selected it to avoid losing a spot.

 

[Nova6218]

II today! Stats in sig. complete 7/31. Available dates were 10/19 and 10/26.

I'm not sure about their reschedule policy, but they only make one or two dates available at a time. I got my II several weeks ago but due to my interview schedule I am not free until November. I emailed the admissions office about this and they said to just wait and check periodically for new openings.

 

[foreverhopeful95]

Did you have an option for other dates? I only had those 2. Seems like they only let you book interviews up to 2 weeks post invite :/

I received an II a couple weeks ago, haven’t scheduled mine as I’m waiting for later dates to open up so they are only opening two dates at a time. They emailed me saying new dates are added on Thursdays/Friday’s

What are your stats if you don’t mind me asking?

 

[Ama4]

Has anyone else not received Secondary's from here? why don't they want my money haha

You are not alone. According to their email, they continue giving secondaries until January. I'm sure that'd be too late, but it's what they said.

[teriyakibeef]

Anyone who has interviewed at Davis care to share their experience or give general tips? 🙂

 

[bblalakiddyjosh]

I literally JUST got a secondary. (I thought it was going to be a rejection email). I submitted my primary mid-July. Anybody want to speculate on this??
