2021-2022 Kaiser (Tyson)

This forum made possible through the generous support of SDN members, donors, and sponsors. Thank you.
Has anyone else who interviewed heard back? I interviewed 9/14 and am wondering if they're releasing decisions today

Based on previous threads, it appears that anybody who interviewed could be eligible to be accepted. Kaiser doesn’t waitlist or reject until March so only people who are accepted hear back
 
Accepted today! Mom, I made it! I’m also non-trad, like almost a decade out of college and I have an MA in International Human Rights kinda nontrad. Shout out to my peeps! Also, if you interviewed on 09/14, I technically know you (though my memory is pretty ****)

There is not enough variation in MMI interview performance to differentiate between applicants. For the most part, schools know who they will be accepting prior to the interview (assuming the applicant isn’t completely unprofessional, disinterested etc.)

I have a feeling that some new schools invite more top tier candidates than they can possibly accept because those same applicants (who will likely get into good med schools and eventual residencies) will always remember that the new medical school didn’t accept them and therefore must be elite
 
are they still sending As to people who interviewed in sept & august after this first wave?
They might! I scoured last year's thread though and it seemed like people who interviewed early and eventually got waitlisted didn't hear anything back until March and then acceptances off waitlist went out in April. Kinda no way to know, though, since they take a really long time to get back with As as well.
 
anyone receive an II today and have trouble booking dates? I don't see any available, I'm guessing its a site issue and they're not just out of dates lol
 
Anyone know their opinions on updates?
I remember in a podcast Dean Willies-Jacobo said they welcome updates as long as there’s something important/new to add. She was talking about WL but it couldn’t hurt if it would add to your app.
 
Not another survey about medical education… I am actually getting actively trolled by California schools 🙁
i am desperate so i went ahead and clicked on it saying i was interested in their research thing, but i was bombarded by questions about biden, the pandemic, and what i think should be done about it. my opinions on these matters are not the same opinions held by mainstream media or academic institutions, so I got nervous that this may be a ploy to weed people out who think like me and decided to not complete the survey.
 
Did they really not send out acceptances today? Or people who got accepted aren’t on SDN?

I’m guessing the latter but could be wrong. When a school only accepts a handful at a time, somebody on sdn is less likely to get it
