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.

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?

II today! OOS. Complete 9/5. How did people feel regarding their MMI? This is my first MMI interview so I'm not sure how to prepare myself 🙁
 
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?

Yep I got one just before I got waitlisted. I was so pumped to open it but...
 
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...
 
Hello everyone I have an interview invite for the 15th of March at 9:15 AM. At what time are interviews usually over? My wife and I are going on vacation and our flight is at 1
 
Post-II R. Interviewed 12/1.

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!!!!)

Anyone willing to expand on this (or did anyone post this elsewhere)? They were rude in the interview?! And wondering that the rejection letter says?
 
Dang man, another WL. 2/15 as well. That’s the third one this cycle. Anyone know what the WL movement is like here?
 
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)
 
That's like a small secret for Chicago is that they will also look at all the post ii Rs and rank them in the event everyone on their alt list and WL decline
 
I know it legit sounds insane but idk why he would tell me that if not true. He said that's why he loves RFU a lot cause they legit gave him a second chance (he got 2 As from WL and this that cycle). He said he cried seeing that email

Also don't call them and ask this cause they'll deny it. It's just that happened to him first hand that he told me rather then he hearing it elsewhere
 
How old is he? I feel like many schools operated differently before 2007. Sometimes it feels like the 21st century didn’t begin until 2008
