Accepted off of the alternate list today! IS
Nice, that is encouraging. I would do anything to know where I am on the alternate list lol
Congrats!! Can I ask when you interviewed and when you were placed on the AL?
Interviewed 9/8 and got an alternate list email 10/20, and received the acceptance email the 27th
II today! OOS, LM 70, submitted early August.
I think I had to use firefox for it to work. Later on, I realized it says at the bottom of a page to use firefox for it to best work.
thank you!
For people who already interviewed, were the 6 MMIs all scenario-based or were there also traditional questions that were asked? Also any tips for the 2-hour interview day?
there were also some traditional questions for some of the MMIs, not all scenario based. Also believe not or not, the two hours fly by before you even know it. Just de-escalate in between each MMI, and try to clear your mind before the next MMI so that you start with a fresh mindset. Hope that helped!

Hi everyone, is anyone able to tell me for the MMI, during the 2 minutes you have to think about the prompt are you allowed to write down thoughts? Or you just sit there and think
Anybody hear back from Albany after being on the WL? I know last year, movement first started around 11/7 but hoping it might be earlier.

thanks so much. how do you think it went?
Is Albany done sending interview invites? Submitted back in July and received silence, don’t know if I should be worried considering people who submitted in September have been interviewed already
+1, maybe we are just lower on the totem pole this cycle

Same. Completed late August but it looks like they are on September apps already.
I think it went well, you just have to think quickly on your feet and practice what you’ll say within the two minutes they give you to read the prompt

Thanks! And was this an acceptance, rejection, or alternate? I'm trying to figure out if there are different post-interview timelines based on decision

what does it mean when your "last received" date changes ? A couple days ago I had 10/5/21 and now it just changed to 11/8/21! anyone know?
There was some speculation earlier in this thread that this was just a weird buggy thing on their end. To date, my "items received" date has changed 7 times and also now says 11/08/2021.
I assumed it was just “to today’s date, we have received the following” so it updates daily i thought?
Did you re-submit your primary app on AMCAS by chance? I think AMCAS resends LORs to schools each time you submit a primary
That's what I thought, but mine doesn't change for weeks/months ://
Either way, I do not think it has any meaning!
hmmm, mine changes every time I login and shows me today's date; I agree though, I don't think it has any meaning & as long as you've finalized it & the portal says youve successfully finalized then youre good to go
true. I did

does anyone remember where we can send thank you notes?
since it was MMI and they didn't allow you to take notes, I don't think they expect thank-you notes.

Are the MMI open or closed files with respect to the traditional stations?

anyone who interviewed on 10/22 heard back yet?
I wonder how often we'll get emails if we're still under consideration, anyone have any input?
II just now, OOS completed late July
