Has anyone uploaded a transcript (fall semester grades)? I think it's supposed to be listed in the drop-down menu in the upload documents section, but I don't see it listed in my portal

you can just upload it in the regular update section and label it grades. You're not required to update with fall grades I dont think

Does anyone know what goes on in the meet and greet? And should you attend before they make a decision on your app?

I don't know what is going to happen but my app is on the deferred after interview list and I am planning on going. I feel its ok to go before they make a decision because they allowed us to on the portal.

how did you get invited to the event? Where is the link or info to that?

 

[BluffCityMD]

Does anyone know if they are receptive to letters of interest post interview? I interviewed in December and was told they would get back to me at the end of February

 

[CrabcakesandFootball]

It’s on the portal with the title meet and greet. I believe it’s the second from the bottom on the control panel.

Have you or anyone else been to meet and greets at different schools? What are they just talking/asking questions to faculty?

I think meet and greets are usually with students, not faculty. At least the ones I've attended. The idea is for you to get a sense of the vibe of the place, and to get questions answered in an informal setting. The presence of faculty would defeat the purpose!

If you've been selected for an interview, they want you to attend. They are not only for accepted students. That's the Second Look!

 

[sassypug101]

Anybody else interviewing tomorrow but still can't see a faculty interviewer name or interview time? The portal says the name and time will be available before the interview date but I don't have them.

They don't usually release that information until the day of your interview, should be there in the morning. Good luck tomorrow!!

Whew! Thank you so much!

 

[deleted1088845]

Whew! Thank you so much!

Not to freak you out, because you will be fine either way. But my interviewer's name and the time was available well before the interview day. I want to say at least 3 days before, but im not positive how long in advance.

Oh thank you for letting me know! I sent them an email, but doubt it will be read tonight. I'll call them before the interview tomorrow and hopefully it'll get worked out quickly. Thanks!

To those of you who have received any type of post-interview decision, what was the email subject for the decision you received?

 

[Throwaway123890]

Congrats! Yolo do the tomorrow date !!

 

[Throwaway123890]

Congrats! Yolo do the tomorrow date !!

I honestly would haha but I have a work thing I have to do too late to cancel it.

 

[Conics98]

I honestly would haha but I have a work thing I have to do too late to cancel it.

Honestly if I had tomorrow as an option, I would be still reeling from the shock of an II and not prepared enough to take it the next day haha

 

[pre-doo-med]

Does anyone who interviewed remember when they got their schedule? the night before?

 

[gavinupwht]

For me, I got my interviewer's name two days ahead.

II just now!! The dates available are tomorrow (lol) and all of Feb/March.

I got an II about a week ago and the earliest date they offered was in feb. Guess I got finessed

 

[bbsquishy]

I assume someone probably cancelled last minute so they had an opening?

 

[jack326]

You got an II a week ago and didn’t immediately report it on SDN? Kind of sus bruh

 

[mdog31415]

I’d gladly take that II for tomorrow 😁. Quite last minute, but YOLO

lol might wanna do a little scrolling

 

[pre-doo-med]

can anyone help me understand the two campuses? Is there a main campus? Or is it an equal split of students

 

[deleted771945]

one big campus at queens lane, about 250 students, and then another campus at west reading, about 40 students. thats what I know.

 

[deleted771945]

Nope. They just have last minute cancellation they are trying to fill. Very few people would actually agree to do it on such short notice if they had a choice. Waiting a few weeks is FAR better, in terms of getting psyched and properly prepared, than just wining it at the last minute.

JMHO, but I'd always pick waiting a month over doing an II the next day. Unless, of course, waiting meant pushing an II into April or beyond. I really do not think interviewing for the WL is a thing at MD schools until the bitter end of the cycle, if then. Certainly not in February or March.

when I got my II back in December there were at least 30 different days available up until march.

Thank you so much I see now where it says this on the website

[pleaseacceptmedrexel]

I interviewed December 13th. What is the likelihood we hear back on Friday or will we likely hear back on the February date.

idk, it seemed like October interviewees were getting their news in late December, so I imagine November interviewees are up next this Friday? I interviewed on 12/1 and I'm expecting the February results date tbh.

Does anyone have any insight on what happens post-interview? Are the student and faculty interviews weighted equally?

 

[sassypug101]

I don't think they're weighted equally. I was told that the student interviewer will have notes for the faculty interviewer. In front of the ADCOM, your faculty interviewer will talk about you and reference notes that the student interviewer had.

 

[berrydoc]

Placed on hold today, complete in mid October

 

[aspiring_md22]

Pre interview hold rn /:

 

[Trained LabRat]

I just want some response from this school! Even a R would be helpful at this point :-(
Complete sometime late July :\

 

[send_help]

Complete late September and still no response

 

[Computing]

Complete late September and still no response

Same but complete early July. Keeping my hopes up because Drexel does get a ton of apps and they continue interviewing for a while. I know a few people that were accepted after interviewing in March.

I hear you, I have 21 schools that have yet to respond, We've survived 6 months of waiting, just a few more to go 🙂

 

[CrabcakesandFootball]

Good luck tomorrow everyone!!! Hopefully everyone hears good news.

 

[mistybay]

[brainperson1]

what time do they generally release decisions?

Last month it looked like they were released a little after 3

 

[AnotherPre-med]
