Thinking back on some of the answers I gave during the MMI is making me cringe lol. Feel like I bombed on some of the questions. Sad thing is, I really like the school.

Right? Some of those questions threw me for a loop and they even told us to prepare for an MMI. Though, it was mentioned that the interviewers were trained to be completely indifferent and applicants will often leave feeling like they performed poorly.
 
It has now been 11 weeks and 1 day without a decision post interview. Every day is pain

If I don't hear back 3 months after my interview, do I assume that I'm rejected...? :(

Lol, no. I also interviewed three months ago and haven't heard back. I heard recently that someone who interviewed in September just got in last week and it was the first time they heard back. Unfortunately I think the longer the better.

Got an II a few hours ago? Oos completed 9/8, any idea if this would be interviewing for a wait-list spot or an actual seat?

This is so random, but I interviewed at CMS a few weeks ago. I haven't heard a decision yet but... I got a package in the mail today with a RFU journal and a postcard saying thanks for interviewing. I legit thought they sent me an A through physical mail, I was so pumped/confused and it was wild in my brain for a few moments lol

Has anyone else gotten anything similar?

Again:( Interviewed on 11/30, not heard anything back yet... Are they just super backed up? Should I call admission and ask? Every day is such torture...

There’s usually not a ton to gain from reaching out before a decision even if it is delayed. I would wait and try not reaching out

Ngl, this school’s rejection letter was one of the rudest ones I’ve received so far.

Therefore, I don’t feel bad gloating about how I have an A at a school far better than this one.

I wrote about how rude they were throughout the interview day in my survey response and I have a feeling it wasn't anon lol. Same here, this was the "lowest" of all the schools I've interviewed at/been accepted to and I was glad to say good riddance.

I understand it’s a rude letter (I got the rejection too), but let’s try avoid disparaging comments tbh. Might make people who plan on attending feel bad. Not their fault that the admin was a bit unprofessional

I said, "lowest" in quotations for a reason. It wasn't my top choice. Medical school is medical school and I'm grateful to have a single acceptance anywhere. RFU was not a good fit for me, whereas it is for others. I can feel what I feel! (congrats to all who were accepted tho!!!!)

Waitlisted today! Interviewed 2/15. Really hoping that turns into an A, this is my top school!

Edit: Just kidding I interviewed 2/1 I mistyped LOL

also waitlisted but will be declining. they said that 93% of the class was only accepted to RFU, so probably lots of waitlist movement. good luck everyone!
 
Same placed on alternate list! Also they did say they take a bunch of people from alternate group as well as like couple even from rejections (one of my doctors got rejected then reaccepted)

This doesn't make any sense. Why would they reject someone then reach back out to accept?
