I first got the right email, then an email apologizing for sending the wrong email. then the wrong email. I'm not even fazed at this point.
Earlier this summer I could've sworn Upstate was on the list for using the AAMC VITA thing, but now they're not on it. Am I going crazy?

To clarify:
This prompt is only asking about academic things, like deficiencies in prereqs, right? Not other impacts of COVID on your app?
edit: Am probably going to put non-curricular impacts of COVID under weakness prompt. Thoughts on doing that?
| We understand that the COVID-19 crisis in Spring 2020 disrupted many aspects of our lives. Please share if you had any curricular impacts during this time, for example, change to pass/fail courses or to online coursework or if you anticipate any deficiencies in experiences as a result of COVID-19. |

They say "deficiencies in experiences" I take that to mean extracurricular issues.
Does SUNY Upstate accept updates?
Does SUNY value nyc ties? for example i was born and raised in nyc but moved to a diff state after I graduated hs. went to a college out of nyc for 2 years and then transferred back to nyc for my junior year

Does interest in internal medicine count as also potential interest in primary care? I put interest in internal medicine but open to scholarships for primary care. Any idea how I should go about this?
Primary care is the umbrella term and includes internal med in it. You're good

I realized that Upstate requires 3 semester hours of Statistics. Since my college is a quarter system, I took one quarter (4 units) of statistics. After I tried to look up on AMCAS conversions, I realized my one quarter of Statistics is only 2.7 semester hours. I was wondering if that one quarter of Statistics that I took in college would still qualify for Statistics requirement since it's only 2.7 semester hours instead of 3 semester hours. Do I need to take another stats class?

Does anyone know if the interviews will be online? I assumed yes, but then I started seeing all of the "campus directions" and "visit to our campus" and I can't find anything supporting it being online....
how long does it take to get a secondary from here? im OOS and transmitted my primary last week
I have been waiting on one for a week now... I may call them in a few days.
IS or OOS ? URM or ORM ?
II earlier today! IS ORM 516 3.98
I was complete on 7/25 and kept seeing people getting them who were complete after me! Don’t stress out. You’re still in the running

thank you for the reassurance :') congrats!
II this afternoon. 3.66, 518, IS. Complete 8/14
Congratulations! When is the earliest interview date you saw on the portal? The earliest I saw was 11/9..but that seems weirdly late to me...more than 2 months away?

Congratulations! When is the earliest interview date you saw on the portal? It just seems crazy to me that the first one I saw was 2+ months away. I feel like I did something wrong.
When I got on, the next earliest was the 28th and I took that. They mentioned something about being able to go on a waitlist for an earlier date though. Not sure how to do it
10/28 is what I meant in my previous post
Thanks! I signed up for the waitlist and maybe I'll just keep checking back every once in a while.
II! IS Complete 7/23
