Survey of n=1 (me) says absolutely notDoes anyone really believe one random post to the tracker with no other posts here?
I definitely don't buy it. The interview tracker is known to have trolls and Harvard is exactly the school that someone would troll about. Also, it's just one report.Survey of n=1 (me) says absolutely not
What is the tracker that everyone is referring to and where can I find it?
https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1qmu0CcN7M9Nuqxtb6w7EUiJVX0SX-uj1Ad3uvWQ5VNE/htmlview
Does something like this exist for MD/PhD? I got an II, but not sure if I should add it to the doc since it says "MD"
When you submit to fill data in the spreadsheet, it gives you an option to select MD PhD so it may still be fine?
If you don't mind me asking, when did you submit your secondary and when did you receive the II?Does something like this exist for MD/PhD? I got an II, but not sure if I should add it to the doc since it says "MD"
It's an II for another school, I was just asking the question in general about the tracker thingIf you don't mind me asking, when did you submit your secondary and when did you receive the II?

Wow really? Damn. I don't go to H but got go to a peer school and know many premeds there. You sure this is the case? I doubt these people would outright lie to me...What? Harvard undergrads aren't even technically complete yet because our committee letters aren't submitted until Aug 15 😵

They are all URM (part of a premed association I am in too). That probably explains it.Yep! It's standardized so all applicants get their letter packets submitted at the same time. Maybe the people you know are unique applicants in some way that warrants them getting an II without letters (my URM friend got an interview invite from a school prior to the school receiving their letters)
Anyone know how to approach these essays as a re-applicant? I applied last year right after graduating so I'm not sure how to answer the gap-year essay and the re-applicant essay without just repeating the same things.
I see on the tracker some Canadian applicant got an II with 497 MCAT. Wonder if that's true
If you look at the dates, seems like a troll submission...I see on the tracker some Canadian applicant got an II with 497 MCAT. Wonder if that's true
I think it will be pretty difficult to make this mistake. Very few schools limit you like this -- updates are either unlimited or not allowed at all.I see that Harvard is one of the few schools that limits your updates on the portal. I was wondering if anyone knew any other schools that do this. I want to make a list so that I don't accidentally waste an update pre-interview. I can't seem to find info on this anywhere else?
As with Harvard, however, if there is a limit, it will be right there for you to see and will be pretty hard to miss. No one has gone to the effort to make a list because I'm not sure it's worth the effort. If you have an update, you either submit it or you don't, depending on whether they will take it or whether you want to use one of a limited number of updates on it.

how long did it take for y'all to receive the secondary after getting verified? I have all of my secondaries except for HMS, and I know they do not pre-screen applicants. is it worth it to call/email them if it's been about a week?

Congrats to everyone who got interviews! Question, where these all pathways or were some HST?
HST has historically started interviewing about a month later (sometime in October), so my assumption is that most of these are Pathways.Congrats to everyone who got interviews! Question, where these all pathways or were some HST?
Anyone get a confirmation email after they signed up for their interview ?
