[CoolRanchDoritos]

Hi everyone! I interviewed last week here and my interviews went great but I am nervous about my VITA performance since it was pretty meh. To those who have gotten accepted, how was your VITA?

 

[Momo45984]

I got the pre-II about a month ago but was wondering if students usually get off the pre-II hold list? Or is it like a soft-R?

How do people see their VITA score? 🤔

How do people see their VITA score?

I think they’re just referring to how they felt coming out of it? I know I felt like crap when I finished mine lol

Oh yes same sentiment lol. I've just seen some others posting here and on reddit that they saw their score/percentile but I never saw that option on mine. I'm not super concerned about it at this point but was just somewhat curious lol

Oh gotcha, that's really interesting! I read that about CASPER but didn't know that was a thing for VITA as well

Same to you friend 😀 I hope everyone reading this comment gets in this year!

Would it be weird to send an update soon after my secondary because I’ve had tons of clinical hours since my primary that there wasn’t really a place to put in the secondary?

I thought they didn't accept any updates? Unless invited to interview?

 

[wpneuro]

Got the MD/PhD pre-II R today - complete 8/10, stats in signature. Best of luck to the rest of y'all!!

They do not accept ANY updates.

They do not accept ANY updates.

Let me rephrase, they do not accept any updates until after April 30.

I actually haven’t submitted my secondary yet. Getting stressed and throwing a Hail Mary. I hadn’t clicked through the whole thing in months when I moved the essay questions to my google doc. I now see there is somewhere to put my gap year activities!

 

[ButterFluffer]

Did anybody ask during interview what the timeline for admissions decisions is? I saw last year some people said they told them that the committee meets and makes a decision at the beginning of every month, still true?

Disclaimer: had a nightmare I got a post II R and now I'm spending the morning obsessing over when I'll hear lol

I've been obsessing since I hit 6 weeks post-II 10 days ago with no news from them >.<

 

[ballermd10]

What does hold mean?

 

[tunaktunak]

Has anyone in the past gotten an II after a pre-II hold? Just one applicant would give me a sliver of hope LOL

 

[ButterFluffer]

[mmedr]

Can’t tell if it’s a good or bad thing to have complete silence from here since submitting secondary. lol

Congratulations on your 9 Acceptances. Are you planning to release a few for the rest soon 🙂. If not, is there a reason to hold, scholarship bargaining? Can we really bargain? Any insight is appreciated.

 

[Hello_There_117]

Hold this morning, OOS with no ties, and kind of forgot I sent a secondary to this school it's been so long since hearing anything from them. Does anyone know what this means in terms of admission other than not rejected yet?
