If you haven’t heard anything back, it isn’t a bad idea to reach out to them just to check in! I did that recently and ended up getting scheduled for another interview!
when was your first interview and did you get any of the update emails??If you haven’t heard anything back, it isn’t a bad idea to reach out to them just to check in! I did that recently and ended up getting scheduled for another interview!
who did you email specifically?If you haven’t heard anything back, it isn’t a bad idea to reach out to them just to check in! I did that recently and ended up getting scheduled for another interview!
I noticed before that you had posted about MD/PhD. Did you reach out to the MSTP program director or MD admissions?If you haven’t heard anything back, it isn’t a bad idea to reach out to them just to check in! I did that recently and ended up getting scheduled for another interview!

I initially interviewed 2nd week In January for MSTP. After the rejection, I was told I was going to be automatically considered for MD. I didn’t get any of the update emails which was why I decided to reach out to MD admissions. I emailed Mary Pace requesting an interview and she scheduled one for me.I noticed before that you had posted about MD/PhD. Did you reach out to the MSTP program director or MD admissions?
Probably May! They are interviewing till the end of AprilSo when are we expecting the annual April A-wave then? Monday?
Likely. There hasn't been any "still interested" emails sent out. The A waves seem to come like 2-3 weeks afterwards in past years.Probably May! They are interviewing till the end of April
Were there any straight A waves? I am in limbo.Also note that in past years there has been an A wave for HPWL in late April, then a later A wave for regular waitlist in May.
Just Feb 1Were there any straight A waves? I am in limbo.
when did you interview?Just Feb 1
early Dec, why what's upwhen did you interview?
I sent it to an admissions person and they forwarded itDid anyone send a thank you letter after the interview? if so, did you send it to admissions or directly to the interviewer's email?
I sent it directly to the interviewerDid anyone send a thank you letter after the interview? if so, did you send it to admissions or directly to the interviewer's email?
It for sure depends on your interviewer! Mine started off the interview by legit saying "I'm not gonna ask you the typical/traditional Qs, instead just walk me through your journey to medicine" and then it was just a conversation from there with his Qs coming naturallyDoes anyone have advice for the interview? I have heard really mixed things ranging form it being conventional to challenging ethical questions to being more conversational. Any insight would be greatly appreciated!

lmao this was not helpful at allHey y’all, I reached out to admissions today since I’ve been in total silence since my interview. I’ll let you know if they say anything about when decisions might be coming out next!
typicallmao this was not helpful at all
“Einstein is interviewing until the end of April; and it's rolling admissions. When a decision is made then you will be informed via email.”
Yeah, there seems to be more post-II R's, deferrals, and HPWLs. Definitely a weird cycle for sureIs it just me or does it seem like everyone is getting the rolling admissions email?
I’m starting to get worried that I’m on the regular WLYeah, there seems to be more post-II R's, deferrals, and HPWLs. Definitely a weird cycle for sure
Did yours say rolling admissions?I’m starting to get worried that I’m on the regular WL
I really hope but I don’t knowmarch update people, do you think we will at least hear back before april 30th ??
I interviewed 3/16, sent in a update letter and thank you letter a few days later, I haven't heard ****Anyone still have silence from the first week of March? What does it mean? There's been rejections + waitlists for people from the first week of March, so why haven't we heard yet?
Keep your chin up! It's better than being on the normal WL like I am. 😭Anyone else experiencing radio silence since their interview? Mine was on 2/23, haven't gotten any March or April update emails, or anything else. Feels bad : (
+1 for being on the normal WLKeep your chin up! It's better than being on the normal WL like I am. 😭
I’m in a similar boat and the lack of any news feels like a silent rejection tbhKeep your chin up! It's better than being on the normal WL like I am. 😭
Many people were placed on the waitlist after receiving the "march update" email. So unfortunately no, doesn't seem like it's any better.Just got the April Update. Is March/April update considered better than waitlists? The April update said that they're interviewing till end of april, so we can expect to hear back after that. But wouldn't that be after the April 30th date to plan to enroll at only 1 school tho... Could they be waiting to see who has not confirmed a school on the 30th, and then offering positions based on who's left? I'm just curious as to the point of these "updates" since they are neither HPWL nor WL but seem more like deferrals?
