I think someone mentioned earlier in the thread that it was for the waitlist if I’m not mistaken
Soo, how are they going to finish filling the class then?
Sorry, I guess I read an earlier post wrong.
I got off the pre-interview waitlist. Interviewed March 12th. Now on the post-interview waitlist.
How long did it take for you to get your decision?
Decision after the interview?
Yes, sorry
Yes, I believe so
It took approximately three weeks.
Lol i’m on three waitlist and I feel that way for all of the schools. Hoping for the best but preparing for the worst (like retaking my mcat 😭)
I too am on the waitlist at another school but feel UIWSOM's waitlist is just out of control. It's as if they don't reject anyone post-interview and instead put them on their never-ending waitlist. Never seen a school with so many waitlisted students. I'm about ready to write this school off.
You never know 🤷♀️ But I wish you the best
Is it ranked in any way?
You too!!!!
Not that I know of. They are really not transparent in how the waitlist works...
I would think so, considering last year they interviewed 806 and 162 matriculated
Schools typically accept like twice the amount of people that actually end up matriculating, as far as I know. Anybody know post-ii acceptance rates for UIW?
I found this on an older thread from the year before that. I guess if you want to be conservative, the number of acceptances wouldn't have changed much.
UIWSOM seems to give you word about a month after an interview.
welllllp there go my chances lol
MMI can be intimidating if you’ve never done one before but that fades away very quickly after your first station. You’ll be shown a prompt on screen and given 2 minutes to think it over and then discuss. I honestly prefer it to the traditional interview. You have the opportunity to impress more than one interviewer as opposed to traditional format. Just relax, be yourself and discuss the prompts. That’s all you need to do.
I think there were maybe 6-7 MMIs. You’re put in a separate room with your interviewer, and they either read or show you the prompt on their screen. I believe you’re given 1-2 minutes to brainstorm/write anything down. After time is up, they tell you, and you start your response to the prompt/question. It’s really not bad at all! If you’ve taken the Casper test, it’s kind of like that, except you verbalize your responses instead of typing them up.
Just fyi there are alooooot of these question in this thread and some good responses that you can find by looking back in this thread!
I interviewed on 3/22 and still have not heard back. If not today, I'd imagine we will hear back next week.
Have you tried calling the admissions office?
