Congratulations!!! I'm OOS and I completed mine on 8/5 but hopefully I'll be right there with everyone landing IIs next wave! Best of luck in your interviews, you're gonna kill it!

Hey everyone! Does anyone know how Casper is used in admissions decisions? Is it heavily weighted?

Did anybody get an interview who was in prelim review for less than a month?

I ask because I got my application in last week, and as someone who interviewed last year, really hoping I don't have to wait till October to hear back :cryi:
 
So they’re only doing IS interviews rn it seems?

Hey guys, does anyone know if CASPER is required to be granted and interview? Or am I able to take CASPER after the interview?
 
For those who have interviewed, did they say we would hear back the first release date 10/6 or that it could be any of the listed dates?
 
I got an email saying my MD/PHD application is under review and asking for consent to send my AMCAS app to the graduate school.

+1; also wondering how much weight is put on CASPer, if any... it sounds like some schools are collecting data but not yet using it for application scoring

From my understanding, they require CASPer as well as new MCAT scores prior to reviewing your application and granting an interview
 
II IS earlier this afternoon! complete 7/27!!!! :)

Does Michigan state send out an email notifying you when your secondary application has been reviewed? Or do they only contact you if invited for an interview?
 
Anyone knows when they start sending rejections?

All I'm saying is that a school might send out 100 rejections tomorrow, but remain silent about your application and not reject you until January or even later (god forbid they decide to reject you in the first place). Schools don't care whether you'd like to be rejected early or later. All I'm saying is that you don't have any control over it. If they start rejecting, we will know because someone will post it. But in the meantime, take a breather. Stressing out won't help snag that II or A, so why spend time being miserable? That during an already soul-sucking time? If it makes you feel better and if you're that anxious, just do some MCAT review for 1-2 hours a day to keep up with the material.

Just hang in there! I haven't heard a peep from any school I've applied to either. I had one DO ii, which turned into a WL. I felt sad for a day and thought meh. It's October, so send in updates if you have any! But most importantly, take a breather.

ACCEPTED 🙌 I got the call just after 1pm. Was with my fiance when I got the call, she screamed so loudly in public that everyone around us got scared. 😭 so many emotions, mostly tears of joy, disbelief, and shock.

Hello,

I have been searching and haven't found an answer to my question. Please forgive my ignorance.

Are either the one-on-one or MMI interviews open-file? Meaning do the people conducting them have my application with them, or are they in any way familiar with me as an applicant? I know it may seem odd given the format of MMI's and the fact that it's a current student doing the one-on-one for them to have my application, but in preparing this would impact how I answer questions.

Any feedback is appreciated.

Hello,

Thank you, in doing more research I've found quite a bit of supplementary information to go through and it's answering a lot of questions.
