Good luck to all those interviewing today and good luck for us tomorrow too! Lol
YupIs it too late to submit primaries in September?
Is it too late to submit primaries in September?
Even if deadline is November?
I had a friend last year submit their primary pretty late (late aug/ september, can't remember) and they got in (high stats)! If you are confident in your application, you can still submit. But just be aware that you are very behind and interview spots/ admissions are rolling....Even if deadline is November?
Anxiety be growingAnyone know when the committee is meeting and when we should expect letters?

Dr. Thomas said that the committee is gonna meet 9/23 and that letters should be sent shortly afterAnyone know when the committee is meeting and when we should expect letters?
For those who’ve received IIs, do you mind sharing the date your application was “complete” and under preliminary review?
Unfortunately no, I’m RD and ISAre you early decision?

Everyday is a new day to CALM MYSELF xD any ED applicants nervous?
I did not heheI’m a little nervous, did you interview on the 15th?
Do I have any chance to get an II when my secondaries were completed Sept. 13th? I am OOS but my family and I strong ties to Louisiana, 509 MCAT, and 3.66 cGPA with a sharp upward trend in the last two years (3.94 GPA in my Junior and Senior year). I know I am definitely late in the cycle, but I hope a miracle can happen lol

MSAR says that they should be received by October 1st. Last year there were some received 2 days after the committee meeting. The committee met today so I would expect a letter anytime from Saturday to Friday.Are we expecting decisions to be received around Tuesday?
Hoping we all get accepted! Prayers up!MSAR says that they should be received by October 1st. Last year there were some received 2 days after the committee meeting. The committee met today so I would expect a letter anytime from Saturday to Friday.
Anyone get letters yet?
Did you apply ED? Do you know how many applicants they select for ED most years?Anyone get letters yet?
I dont know about most years, but MSAR says that 40 people were accepted through ED last yearDid you apply ED? Do you know how many applicants they select for ED most years?
I didn't interview for ED here but I did somewhere else and I'm trying to see how good my odds are if I got an interview for ED. I was really close to choosing this school for ED. Anyone who has seen me over the years now knows I'm a reapplicant over multiple years. I want to believe that my odds are higher than they have been since it's early and I'm in in the ED pool but I won't know I guess until we all get letters next week.Last year 60 people applied through ED. I believe that almost everyone who interviewed got in, and apparently the 20ish that didn't interview had below-average MCAT and or no clinical experience. I believe there were 77 ED applicants this cycle, but I don't know how many interviewed.
Early Decision is great for some schools and a really poor choice for others. It entirely depends on if your application and stats are within the schools averages. I only ED'd here because I have a fairly lengthy relationship to the school and have known a trove of students from my undergrad who got in via ED. Shreveport looks favorably at ED applicants because they understand that we lower our chances on the hope of attending the school we want more than any other. Personally I would consider turning down an acceptance at another medical school for a chance of going here. The staff cares, the school has crazy cool pathology, and my mentors trained here. On top of that, my scores are within the school's averages.I didn't interview for ED here but I did somewhere else and I'm trying to see how good my odds are if I got an interview for ED.

Do you know if Nola is the same way? Interviewing ED there is a good sign?

Not sure, I had a friend who ED'd this cycle to Nola with a 497 that didn't get interviewed.Do you know if Nola is the same way? Interviewing ED there is a good sign? This thread has been busier than the Nola one this year
Would you mind posting a SS of MSAR of last year for ED?Last year 60 people applied through ED. I believe that almost everyone who interviewed got in, and apparently the 20ish that didn't interview had below-average MCAT and or no clinical experience.

Same, hoping letters will come in tomorrow.I have informed delivery and so far nothing has popped up
Same, I have no mail coming. Do you think they have even sent them out yet? I'm really surprised nobody has received one yet.My Informed Delivery just updated. Its only 1 letter, not the LSU one either. It can update all the way through 9am, but this is kinda discouraging
I'm sure they will come in tomorrow or Thursday. Do they also send letters if you get waitlisted?Yeah I just got the email from Informed Delivery, not coming today. I know that it takes a couple days for it to get out of Shreveport, but didn’t they send them out last week? The deadline is Friday, and I honestly feel so separated from conversation and my friend groups because I can’t think of anything else. Do you think someone should call them on Thursday?
That is literally so me right now. You're not alone. It is a big deal because we are all potentially getting life changing letters. It's hard not to think about. Even my coworkers keep asking, but I don't have any new news because I'm still waiting.I honestly feel so separated from conversation and my friend groups because I can’t think of anything else.
