OOS II received for Cleveland Clinic! I could NOT be more excited. LM 73.30, complete 7/23, OOS no ties.
The invite went to my junk folder instead of my inbox, so everyone make sure to check your spam.
If you haven't heard anything yet, try to hang in there. Good luck!

I ended up doing my Case app late (4 weeks instead of 2 weeks). I know Case strongly recommend submitting within 2 weeks, but unlike other schools they don't mention that submitting increases your priority internally (beyond the general first come first serve). Does anyone know if your application is flagged or anything if you're later?
It's not. Go back earlier in the thread where @CWRU.Sman confirms this.

Is there a general expectation to use up all 3500 (or close to 3500) characters for the secondary essay responses? For some of the prompts, I have much shorter responses (like 1500-2000 characters)
Just got an R from University program, although do have II at Cleveland clinic
When were you complete? I am waiting for my demise and want to know how much closer I am haha
Sorry, but do you have a general post number I could refer to. I went through the whole convo, but didn't see anything concerning application lateness flags.

also @CWRU.Sman is on the admissions committee and is kind enough to keep you informed on this thread and answer questions.
If you read through the whole thread and see his/her answers to other people's questions, you will have the best picture of what to do-

@CWRU.Sman Hi! Are we allowed to know if the You Do IQ sessions have a bearing on our application decisions? It says strongly recommended in bold and I'm not sure if that's implying this, or just emphasizing its importance for our own sake when making a decision.

I went to one of these and the facilitator said that it had no impact on their decision and that they don’t report back to anyone. I think it’s just an opportunity to see how the sessions typically go since they make up a large part of the curriculum!
Can you, or anyone else who has attended one, describe the session a little more? How long did it take, how many other applicants were there, how much participation there was, and how were people dressed? Thanks in advance!
Comfy casual, I was wearing a sweatshirt. There were 2 student facilitators and maybe ~15 applicants, and we ended up in 2 breakout rooms. Pretty good participation in my group at least, it took about 45 minutes and the med student stuck around after to answer questions about the program/school for us! Overall I had a fun doing it and would highly recommend it!
It is the same photo that you uploaded for your secondary. No new photo!
Thank you so much!
You’re very welcome!
Exactly right. It's an opportunity to experience a taste of our curriculum since you can't be here to observe it. Actually, I like it better because you get to participate vs. passively sitting in an IQ group room watching med students do their work. While it's not intended to be evaluative, I suppose if someone acted like a complete jerk, I'd like to know about that. That said, most people know how to comport themselves well and I don't really have to worry about this happening too much.
pre-II R. OOS

Sorry to hear, what is your complete date?
07/26 I believe and LM 76 ORM. I had lower research than case prefers so not surprised but definitely disappointed

complete 7/22, LM 78 ORM with 1500+ research hours and received pre-II R this morning as well, really sad about this one.

Not receiving an R can only be a good thing, but it’s very likely all that means is they haven’t gotten to you yet since they don’t queue solely by submit date
Anecdotally, I submitted mid-July last cycle, got my interview invitation in January, and got in to Case like 2 weeks later. Patience is definitely important in this process.

Yeah, sounds like you got put on hold and got re-reviewed later in the cycle. Seeing other people’s submit times can be informative, but at the end of the day admissions is a black box and being patient is the only way forward
