Members don't see this ad.

I heard you're sending me an interview invite today, thanks in advance Howard!

Did it happen haha?

 

[Mellyjelly123]

I will advise you to retake and get at least a 500. Goodluck!

Thanks but I wasn’t really asking for advice, just wondering if anyone got an interview with those stats because it does happen

 

[reallynotgonnahappen]

you guys......................why are they so freaking quiet.......

 

[aduuubacsi]

Did it happen haha?

Seem like it's just rumors lol

 

[curlydoc94]

Anyone get an interview with a MCAT score below 500?????

I did last year

 

[Mellyjelly123]

What was your score if you don’t mind?

From the First Friday Event, the admission said they would take sub 500 but you would need a high GPA to offset the low mcat. In my case, I have a 501 mcat and trash gpa soooo I'm out of luck since I'm low on both end lol.

Whats considered high by their standards? 3.5+?

Has anyone gotten rejected by these people yet?

 

[kdubz]

Got waitlisted this morning! Interviewed feb 24.

 

[Seahawks12]

And, when was the last time someone got an A, and when did they interview? Thanks

 

[don7]

If they haven’t review your application by now you’ve essentially been rejected right?

 

[theendisnigh]

If they haven’t review your application by now you’ve essentially been rejected right?

I guess you could also make the argument that if they've reviewed you, and you haven't heard anything, then they just don't want to bother with you (ex. myself). It's hard to tell. We just know they interview until April.

[curlydoc94]

I understand completely. I was just advising you to be in the 500's. It will open a lot of doors for you.

I wish we knew if they are still sending out IIs or not. I’m in a similar position as you. I hope we find out soon. Best of luck!!!

 

[bestintentions]

Got waitlisted this morning! Interviewed feb 24.

Congrats! Fingers crossed for you. Did anyone else receive waitlist notification recently?

 

[blueberry2125]

I haven’t yet and I interviewed on Feb 10. I emailed them because I was suppose to hear back by March 5th. They said that they’ve gotten a little behind but will hopefully notify soon.

 

[doctorinpumps16]

[DrRen]

Lol i have a 3.92 ans 511 mcat. Complete silence!

 

[bestintentions]

WL for me. Interviewed 2/24.

 

[deleted907416]

Complete silence from this school. At this point? Is it a silent rejection?

 

[future_doc_coming]

Complete silence from this school. At this point? Is it a silent rejection?

According to the last 1st Friday, we will start to hear back about rejections starting on the 15th

 

[blueberry2125]

I don’t know if this affecting any communication but when I emailed earlier this week I was informed that they are on “spring break” until the March 15th. I don’t know if this is affecting admissions and how often they meet during this time.

 

[aduuubacsi]

oh damn, so we are expecting a mass rejection wave coming on Monday.

Bro this is not real. Your trolling.

 

[DrRen]

Nope :/

This is a HBCU so if he/she doesn't meet their mission then it's no surprise they get the silent treatment even with good stats.

 

[peaceloveandmedicine]

Not necessarily I have things that meet their mission 3.5 gpa 513 MCAT and I also have heard nothing. It just happens. We have no idea why adcom does what they do

I think they prefer undeserved students :/

 

[elijahR]

I think they prefer undeserved students :/

I think you mean underserved 😂

 

[peaceloveandmedicine]

I mean I’m a URM and I haven’t heard anything lol. It just is what it is.

 

[DrRen]

Yea i am also URM.

 

[BeKind19]

If they're going to send me an R can they just do it already 😥

 

[futuretrashwoman]

Seriously they need to put me out of my misery.

 

[Chels1017]

Man, I volunteer and work in underserved communities. Still nothing. You can meet their mission statement, have the stats, and whatever else. There is obviously a matter of other factors as well. And apparently, I don’t meet them

Yeah! They mentioned at the last First Friday that they were holding off on issuing the more invites till they reviewed the last 32 applications; they must've finally completed that. 😲
