Do you mind sharing your stat?
EDP applicant so stats don’t matter for everyone else. You’re not even eligible for EDP unless 3.6+ Bcpm GPA and 65th percentile or higher on mcat.

Does anyone know if Wayne is receptive to ITA notifications? I'm moving out of state soon and it would be a lot more convenient if I could plan everything out
 
Will a letter of intent get me in? This is my top choice hands down

You might have similar chances of getting in by reciting the holy gospel or donating your liver unless you’ve already gotten an acceptance elsewhere or are waitlisted here man

what changes when you hold an acceptance elsewhere? is it a thing that can change the weight given to a letter of intent? I have not heard of this.

I know that USC won't read any update letters when you are on the waitlist UNLESS you are holding another acceptance. I think some schools have an ego complex that makes them only want to take kids that have other options.

An intent letter is really only meaningful if you can say I’d go to x college over any others. It’s hard to prove that when you don’t have an acceptance since technically you’d go to any college at that point. With an acceptance in hand you’re saying that even with this, I’d still go here.

I think you should send it, if they gave you an interview invite and you're an in-state student. Special thing about this year is, schools cannot see if you have acceptances from other schools
 
Secondary completed on July 19th. OOS. 3.7/509. II received on September 18th via email. II completed on September 24th. Is it smart to send a thank you note for this kind of thing to admissions post interview?

So after checking my portal again, I found that I submitted my secondary and everything else by the first week of august but I didn't submit the photo ID until aug 15. Does that mean I was complete mid august or early august? Or does it not matter

I don’t think it matters....but they did send a complete email, so i’d go by that date.

You would be complete on Aug 15 then. Shouldn't matter in the long run, looks like they're mostly interviewing OOS applicants right now and those with LizzyM around 70

Did anyone's status change from SS to SC today under the Med School in Process section?
 
Nope, I just checked the portal and it had changed to that
 
So I have been finished with my app here for over a month. I just saw that I hadn't uploaded the technical standards. I just uploaded it today. Do they review apps before the additional materials are uploaded?

Does anyone here know how Google Hangouts work? Are they going to be able to see us like a video chat tonight? Or is it more like a live stream where they cannot see the viewers? Sorry if this is a stupid question
