Not necessarily? What information are you hoping to gain from meeting with them?As an ORM/non-disadvantaged, would I be invading/out of place if I signed up for the Office of Multicultural Affairs meeting during interview day?
Honestly, at the time, I just signed up for everything except for the ethnic groups of which I wasn't apart of to show interest to the school (not that it probably even matters at most schools...). I am interested in some of their community service programs though and would be interested in gaining more information about them, but that's probably it. But I went on their site and saw that all of their leadership were African-American and am wondering if it would look as strange as if I signed up for the LMSA group meeting as a non-Latino.Not necessarily?

If you're interested in being an ally/doing community service through these groups none of these things are exclusive to people of those groups but their interests do focus on those groups. The office itself is multicultural and so if you're just hoping to gain more information because you're actually interested in working with the office/groups within the office I don't necessarily think it's a bad thing, but don't just do it because you think it will look good or something!Honestly, at the time, I just signed up for everything except for the ethnic groups of which I wasn't apart of to show interest to the school (not that it probably even matters at most schools...).

Not v stressful at all. At least from my experience, they each gave us a chance to answer the question and speak. It’s courteous to just let others speak when it’s their turn. Of course, if something vibes with your background/experience that someone else says you can mention that as a point of commonality. I believe the focus is observing how you discuss yourself as an applicant around others as well as how you interact with your peers and potential future med school peers in a (virtual) professional setting.Has anyone interviewed and wants to share level of stress especially for the group interview?
In the status tab, mine has a green check mark next to "Last Update Entered" with the date, but no, I can't access the update itselfAnyone submitted an update and knows how they can see whether their update actually submitted successfully? It says submitted, but there does not seem to be a way to read the update itself.
Yup! That’s what the packet said is the first day A’s will be mailed out on. If we don’t get an A in that first batch we are in consideration for others.Emory is mailing on the 18th, correct?
I think they are sending today...wait are they sending out letters today or are they potentially arriving today
complete?II a few minutes ago.
Mid Augustcomplete?
Congrats future doctor! Stats? IS/OOSII a few minutes ago.
I think the first batch is currently in transit via USPSFor anyone that interviewed Monday, did they mention anything about when they would send out the first batch of acceptances?
Stats in the signature (turn the phone sideways if on mobile). OOSCongrats future doctor! Stats? IS/OOS
Do you know this definitively?I think the first batch is currently in transit via USPS
in the packet emory sent out before the interview, one of the pages listed the dates that they mail batches of acceptancesDo you know this definitively?
funny enough, on my interview day, they said 10/1 was the latest day to be considered for the first batch. i wonder if they changed their minds.They mailed acceptances on 10/18 if you interviewed before 10/7 (what they said on my interview day). If you interviewed 10/8 or later, you are in consideration for acceptances mailed starting 11/15
me! got an II back in late SeptemberAny regular MD, non-URM IIs at all? I've been complete since end of Aug and nothing since. Are they going chronologically?
Yes, they said the same! I know the committee met on 10/7 to decide so that's why they mentioned itfunny enough, on my interview day, they said 10/1 was the latest day to be considered for the first batch. i wonder if they changed their minds.
When did the letter say the portal would update?Accepted this morning! Complete 7/28, Interviewed 9/13, IS
I haven't physically received the letter yet (saw it via Informed delivery though - it was postmarked 10/18). The portal updated this morning with the admissions offer.When did the letter say the portal would update?
Is it another tab that pops up besides (welcome, interview, supplemental app, and status)?I haven't physically received the letter yet (saw it via Informed delivery though - it was postmarked 10/18). The portal updated this morning with the admissions offer.

I think they do not reject until the very end. Basically, you are waitlisted until you hear back with an A throughout the cycle or R until the end. That's how I understood it when they were talking about it during the interview.So if our portal didn't update do we know if we'll get any other type of update as to waitlist/R?

March 30th you find out if you're waitlisted if you didn't get an A throughout the cycle. Though I am worried about the prospects of getting an A after not getting into the first cycle one is eligible for. As more people interview, it seems like the chance of getting an A may decrease over time.I think they do not reject until the very end.
