Been silent since completing on August 4th, should I just assume I’m not going to get an II?
Same. Complete 8/24 this cycle. I think the DOs I applied to legit hate me.Not sure how they review. I had a friend who got an ii and they were complete 8/24. The interview invite was like 1/5 and then interview was like a few days after that. A week after the interview, they got in.
Meanwhile, I have been complete since 8/24 and silence. Also, I am a reapplicant and last cycle it was silence until the R in April.
Yeah I don't know. Most people were completed on that date. So they were obviously pretty swamped with applications. I think on average they get like 6000- which they invite like 10% for interviews. And then accept like 20-25% of those that interviewed.Not sure how they review. I had a friend who got an ii and they were complete 8/24.

I've got 3.86 undergrad GPA, of that 3.8 science, and a 4.0 grad GPA. My MCAT is a 496 (I know not fantastic, but they don't have minimum) shoot your shot right 👍🏻. I have pretty good EC's in paid experience, volunteer experience, and clinical experience. I also sent in an update letter a couple weeks ago with my new job, shadowing hours, and volunteer position.what are your stats? just wondering if they got to my application to review or if they've already passed it and said nope haha

*Honestly think my update letter might have pushed me back a little in the queue.
Congratulations!I was also accepted today! Interviewed 1/14. So happy I can't believe it!!
yeah i uploaded letters to the portal and nothing either, but i'm like..are they really checking that 😩 but when i talked to admissions they made it really clear that they prefer the portalI’m in your position, but with a 504 MCAT and a c3.42 w/ sc3.12. I also sent update letters to Philadelphia and SG, but still nothing. Hoping this schedule to March helps us all.
Yes, my friend interviewed that day and he received an acceptanceBumping this question because I see others have received recent acceptances (congrats all!!), has anyone from the 12/21 interview date heard back yet?
didn't send a thank you to my student interviewer and still got accepted fwiwAnyone who interviewed: did you send thank you notes to your med student interviewer? I didn't get a chance to follow-up for their email & was wondering if the ADCOM would disclose that contact info?
same here I don't think PCOM caresdidn't send a thank you to my student interviewer and still got accepted fwiw
through the portal would likely be ideal since there is a portal and it would be one less thing for the director to have to uploadStill debating on if I should send my letter of interest through the portal or to admissions director email :/
Just got my log in information today for myPCOM and for me its giving me the error "User name not found" so I can't get in either. I sent an email to the new students email that they mentioned so hopefully they will get it sorted out soon. I would just reach out to them if you are also having issues.Accepted applicant. I received an email to set up an account in PCOM's portal, but when I log into myPCOM, the website says "The requested resource was not found". Anyone else experiencing the same thing?
On this note, who would be the best to address this letter?mustering up my courage to polish my letter of intent and to send it. pray for me yall 😅😩
congrats! stats?Just got an II. Completed 11/9!
I addressed mine to my assigned counselor on my portal page.On this note, who would be the best to address this letter?
Undergrad gpa were both sub 3.0, SMP/grad c/sGPA 3.4. MCAT 501. OOS. I have a lot of volunteer and clinical work and research in NJ, Philadelphia and Pennsylvania though because my SMP was through Drexel College of Medicine.congrats! stats?
I am hoping and I think the answer to this is no because I withdrew from one after being waitlisted but would love to hear from another.If i withdraw my acceptance from one PCOM location, would the other locations find out? I've been accepted to one location, but I am hoping to hear back from the other locations instead
1 hour info session with current students, then a 30-40 minutes one-on-one interviewFor those that interviewed already, was it a one on one or a group interview?
I have a friend that was accepted into both PCOM-GA and PCOM-PAI have a similar question as the two above me. Does anyone have experience being interviewed/accepted at multiple PCOM campuses or does the likelihood decrease if one campus has accepted you?
+1 really love this school tooComplete since august - silence
+2+1 really love this school too
+4😿+3 😅
+5 & I’m a biomed 😥
No mandatory lectures unless stated in the syllabus. Lectures are always recorded unless there are technical issues.Does anyone know if the lectures are mandatory/ recorded?
Do you fulfill all of the requirements in the guaranteed interview/acceptance? Judging from last year, they did interview a lot of biomeds in Feb - April; so maybe that is not a bad sign+5 & I’m a biomed 😥
My time is from 12-4pm tomorrow so it’s just 1 hour of an info session and then one 30-40 min interview. What happens for the rest of the 2.5 hours?1 hour info session with current students, then a 30-40 minutes one-on-one interview
I heard back 2 weeks after my interview with the Aany idea when the admissions committee meets? also how soon have ppl been hearing back after interviews?

Ah ok, thanks for the clarification!I heard back 2 weeks after my interview with the A
They have interviews scheduled from like 1:15-4, so you just log off of zoom once the info session is over and wait by yourself until your scheduled interview time comes.
My one friend who interviewed has a 3 hour break to chill at her apartment in between.
Edit: my interview was the first slot after the info session, so when my interview was done by 2pm, my interview day was done.
Not exactly. I’m slightly below the required mcat score, but meet every other criteria. They told us that it’s very possible to get an interview without meeting every listed criteria so I’m keeping my fingers crossed.Do you fulfill all of the requirements in the guaranteed interview/acceptance?

probably too much especially if its nothing different.anyone have any idea how they would look at sending two letters of interest? i sent one in decembers and still haven't heard anything so was thinking of sending another
I was assuming the same since my LORs have been stuck on 12/2 for the Philly campus as well.I noticed that my LOR statuses have not changed since 12/2 under the PA campus tab, but it has changed daily for South GA campus. Being an optimistic person, is it possible PA has put me on an invisible hold? Somebody please debunk this so I can release this false hope from my mind!
