Members don't see this ad.

I've had over 1000 hours of clinical experience and about 500 hours of volunteer work total.

Based on my experience, my take was that they really care and value social justice and efforts by applicants that contributed to that cause.

Thanks for responding.

Was your clinical experience via employment or volunteering? Did you get lots of hands on clinical experience involving delivering care to patients?

LOL I got rejected pre-II...........but I have interviewed at HMS and other top schools. Tufts syndrome! 🤣

Non-medical (I am not a CNA or MA or anything like that) but still interacting with patients (talking with them, providing them non-medical services.)

yield protect

I've interviewed at 7 of top 20 schools so far and got an A from Georgetown. It is not really prudent to attribute everything to yield protection when we have no clue what is really going on behind the curtains.

We talking in general. Yield protection certainly exists.

No one refutes it exists. That is not the conversation we are having right now lol.

 

[amcasskissin]

Is anyone else on here not premed enough to understand what yield protect means?

T20s seem to really care about research and stats and Georgetown much less so.

Would you be able to share how you appealed to both T20s and Georgetown while pulling in 29 total interviews? I'll be applying for the first time in a couple of cycles and the basis of your successes would be helpful to hear.

I got the R from these guys a few weeks back but I just want to say that I do not want to see the words “cura personalis” ever again.

 

[dmblah]

For those who interviewed, did y'all submit a thank you note separate from a letter of interest or did you like combine them together in one lol

 

[premedicalstudent101]

have there been any post-ii decisions the past couple days?

 

[zoraktheattack]

I just wrote a thank you note referencing some key ideas brought up in the interview. Nothing too fancy lol

Anyone one else get a pre-II R today? Seems I missed last Wednesday wave of Rs (complete around the same time as those Rs too) and kind of neurotic thinking I was being juggled around before finally getting hit.

Non-trad, LM 68 (low GPA, high MCAT), 75 WARS. 5000+ clinical hours working with an underserved population.

 

[barrelgrubber321]

Pre-II R today, complete 9/28

516 MCAT, 3.65 SMP GPA

 

[chip2014]

Pre-II rejection today. 512 MCAT, 3.5x GPA. Complete in September. Decent ECS, mainly clinical research and volunteering in free clinics. I think Georgetown receives one of the most applicants out of any MD so I knew it was going to be tough. Sad but not totally surprised.

 

[Happy Bulbis Cordis]

Pre-II R

521 MCAT, 3.98 Gtown SMP GPA, 2.78 uGPA, 1000+ clinical hours, 200 non-clinical hours

Received an II last year while in the SMP and was then rejected

Hurts 🙁

[deleted1115486]

Of course, interviewed 9/14

 

[sneezysleeves]

Got a WL yesterday morning (interviewed 9/10); this is my top choice, but I submitted an update in mid-Oct, so should I wait a bit before submitted a letter of intent? (I was thinking of sending the LoI end of Nov, early Dec)

 

[unclepeanutz]

[unclepeanutz]

[luvs2splooge]

[GrayCanary21]

My interviewer had my application with the hours/GPA/MCAT blacked out. She wasn't able to see my personal statement or secondaries either.

 

[soaringphoenix]

[deleted1115486]

Does anyone have some feedback as to how their interview went?

 

[luvs2splooge]

It was really chill. I had a PhD as my interviewer and he just asked me questions about health policy and about my research. Very reaffirming during the interview that I was doing well!

 

[adaboy]

Did anyone else get this email titled "Invitation to GUSOM Student Panel"? I interviewed a few weeks ago and am wondering if this is a good sign that they will accept me soon. Or maybe I am completely overthinking this email haha.
