[tanbrucewayne]

UCSF (hometown lol), HMS-HST and U Washington

 

[reddyice]

UCSF (hometown lol), HMS-HST and U Washington

[wesleysnipes]

Hold :/

 

[wesleysnipes]

UCSF (hometown lol), HMS-HST and U Washington

you really snapped this cycle with those 29 IIs

 

[Campana]

I'm always going to lean towards holding on to a bit of hope - some do get interviews after being on hold pre-interview:

Courtesy of Ms. Nutella:

First pre-interview hold: October 23rd, 2014 (apparently ~2,000 applicants get placed on hold and 30-40 are eventually extended interview invites in January)

 

[FigmundSreud]

UCSF (hometown lol), HMS-HST and U Washington

When were you complete for HMS? I forgot I even applied there and for HST lol

 

[HLA-E]

Placed on hold on 10/12. Was complete on 8/4.

Two holds and silence from the rest of my other schools. It's rough out here

 

[ss2196]

anyone get any rejections pre-secondary? I still havent recieved my secondary yet with being verified mid august. Should I contact them?

 

[Dwight Halpert]

Just a heads up, they told us during interview day that they'll be sending out the first round of acceptances Oct 23rd

 

[drlannister]

Complete on July 21st and still haven't heard a thing. HELP!!

 

[burb]

Complete on July 21st and still haven't heard a thing. HELP!!

Same boat--complete late July and not a peep. I was looking at last year's thread and it seems like there were others in this position as well, so I wouldn't worry! It seems that people from late July were still hearing back about IIs and Rs all the way through early November (and potentially later; I didn't read that far).

I interviewed on 9/13, and they told us they might get back to us on October 16th, but that we would definitely hear something on the 30th. Has anyone else heard anything different?

 

[simpinpremed]

Hold, 10/13.

 

[AYZ52]

Same boat as you, but then my friend interviewed on 10/4 and was told they would hear back on 10/23. Maybe they're pushing up the date?

No. Your friend interviewed at a later date so it just makes sense that s/he would get decision at a later date.

Well we were told we would likely hear back on 10/30 for those who interviewed on 9/13, so...

We were also told that maybe we’d hear back today. If they then told a later group they’d hear back on 10/23, we’re probably gonna hear back today.

Welp, October 26 it is

 

[LadyGlen]

Interview invite this morning!! My first UC interview. I am ecstatic! Complete 8/28

 

[turndatwood]

II this morning! OOS, ORM, Complete 8/17, they had dates available tomorrow and in late Jan/early Feb.

 

[ss2196]

Anyone else have their primary verified mid August and not received a secondary from here? Or any pre-ii rejectins?

 

[Twinkie2!97]

Does anyone know what time frame an applicant on hold pre-interview might hope to get an ii? Not sure how frequently they look over the hold pile to send out more interviews invites but trying to remain optimistic! The hold email said they would reconsider candidates at the end of January but I was hoping they reconsidered applicants prior to that as well.

 

[Ninanana]

On hold just now. Completed early august. Any ideas on how likely you are to getting and interview if you were put on hold?

 

[doublehoo]

Just got placed on hold. Complete 8/19

 

[chick_fil_eyyy]

On hold, complete mid-August. booo

 

[surfandturf1]

Could anyone provide some information regarding their interview experience here? Thank you!

 

[mickymick]

Definitely a pretty chill place, everyone is very friendly. Campus is pretty much on undergrad campus, so plenty of activities/food places. Interview format is standard MMI in the mornings. After (free) lunch, current M1 and M2s show you around on tour.

Verified even earlier and haven’t heard anything just yet. You’re in good company

LizzyM of 80

 

[qwerta]

Any interview dates in november?

 

[ays0110]

Nope, not that I saw on what was available on my calendar picker. My interview is not until February.

 

[Wahkoon]

I highly recommend going on the clinic tours if you can. Definitely a highlight of interview day and my favorite tour of the cycle. It’s also one of the only opportunities to talk with 4th years and they are very open to Q&A

This the hospital tour or the free clinics?

Free clinic. I don’t think the specific site matters, they just rotate through during the week.

 

[turnupformedschool]
