What does this mean

 

[whatsinaphage]

What does this mean

It means I'm checking my update button every five minutes to see if anything changes and not knowing if I want it to stay or go 🥲

 

[mdchaser]

What does this mean

I feel like it just means the committee has met and made a decision on your application and therefore you can no longer submit updates but who knows ...

 

[Andy Scallion]

To be honest I also think it means the committee has met and made a decision but just to entertain this weird theory has anyone from 1/19 lost their update button?

 

[affidav1d]

for those waitlisted/received a post ii R, did your update button also disappear before you got the decision? i'm just noticing now that mine is not there anymore... (mid jan interviewee)

I haven't got WL or R, but I interviewed 1/7 and my update tab disappeared like 3-5 days ago.

 

[preboost]

can anyone who has interviewed recently remind me of the policy for update letters/letters of intent? i was waitlisted earlier this week and trying to send a letter, but I don't want to send it if they specifically said not to.

i don't recall any mention of LOIs. the only thing they talked about was the 2-week window post-interview to submit updates.

 

[affidav1d]

Same… Do you remember if it was before or after the last waitlist wave? I didn’t check consistently enough to notice 😬

Yeah not sure, I didn't check consistently enough either. I wanna say it was on the day of the last WL wave? Keeping an eye on my phone for Dr. Gibbs today

Not positive but I think Dr. Gibbs said do not send LOIs or thank you notes after my interview. Might be misremembering

 

[pi_grl]

Pre-II R, very well expected lol! Good luck to you all that are waiting to hear from your interviews.
IS, complete July (for both MD & MSTP), MSTP R in august, put back into regular MD pool right after.
Stats= way too low for this school, lol

 

[Andy Scallion]

Any chance they make calls today?

 

[caramelchocy]

Received the acceptance call at 7 pm EST! In disbelief rn

 

[puppymcpupperson]

is it over for us 1/12 folks then or is there any chance they do more acceptances next week

 

[SEASFO]

Have they been releasing acceptances for each date all at once?

 

[whatsinaphage]

Last year acceptances for mid January trickled out to early March if I remember correctly, and some of us from mid March still haven't been reviewed if still having the update button available is what that means - I'm going to try staying optimistic and deeply nervous for now

 

[touchflame]

In case it's helpful, I interviewed on 1/27 last cycle. Had to wait until 3/8 to get the call. Don't despair until you get word one way or the other.

 

[deleted1074206]

Do we know if they accept updates after a waitlist?

 

[Andy Scallion]

Anyone lose their update portal this week? or are they going to take another week and make decisions after the long weekend.

 

[SEASFO]

Any acceptances last Friday?

 

[KanekiS1E12]

Quick question. The update button is supposed to be on the the normal MedAdmit Application Portal under the interview tab? Or where was it? Just making sure mine actually disappeared and I didn't "misplace" it haha.

 

[inoffensivepersona]

Mine is below the Communications button and it’s still there. I interviewed in February.

 

[KanekiS1E12]

Okay thank you inoffensive. Looks like my button has disappeared. Interviewed in February.

 

[inoffensivepersona]

Does everyone’s button disappear or just people who have a certain decision made?

 

[KanekiS1E12]

I think that the working theory has been that it means a decision has been made. But there doesn’t seem to be any reason to believe its a positive or negative decision. It’s all just speculation really.

 

[preboost]

Okay thank you inoffensive. Looks like my button has disappeared. Interviewed in February.

did it disappear 2+weeks post-interview?

 

[KanekiS1E12]

did it disappear 2+weeks post-interview?

No

 

[preboost]

No

so less than 2 weeks, huh? that's weird... we were told we should be able to upload an update within 2 weeks of the interview

 

[KanekiS1E12]

Maybe they just really didn’t like me and don't want to hear an update😅. Jk its all good, wasn’t planning on sending one in. They’re probably just speeding up the review process since it’s the end of the cycle.

lol or they thought your app was so stellar that it didn't need any updates. i was waiting on sending an update because i have a manuscript under review and was hoping it'd get accepted soon so i can include it, i should probably not wait any longer then haha. wishing luck to both of us!

This is more likely.

 

[KanekiS1E12]

Appreciate the support. Hopefully all 3 of us can get in and I’ll get you 2 coffee.

 

[puppymcpupperson]

is anyone from dec/jan still waiting for a decision? My update portal is still there..

 

[Dogruffle01]

Lol Oct waiting on a decision.

 

[puppymcpupperson]

Lol Oct waiting on a decision.

Right, so I'll shup up with my complaining lol..

Why do you think they've kept some of us undecided/reviewed when the majority of our fellow interviewees have heard back?

Nah bro, you good … stress is universal.

They probs are undecided if they want to accept us or not. We’re probably B+ applicants that they like, but they just liked the first round of acceptees better.

 

[inoffensivepersona]

i spoke to Kaneki a couple of days ago about the update button. Mine just disappeared as well. February interviewee here. Any other interviewees with or without the button?

 

[abcdedcba]

Mid jan, mine disappeared this morning

 

[whatsinaphage]

Same here

 

[mdchaser]

Early feb interviewee, mine also disappeared😱

 

[puppymcpupperson]

Mid Jan...also gone finally but now I wish it hadn't

 

[mdchaser]

Got the call at 3PM EST!! Feeling SO incredibly blessed, see you all in the bay area!😭

 

[Andy Scallion]

Has anyone gotten rejected post interview?

 

[inoffensivepersona]

I think they just waitlist people.

 

[mattykinz]

Have there been any more A’s today?

 

[KanekiS1E12]

Have there been any more A’s today?

Go fish 🐠

 

[weallgonnamakeit]

Just waitlisted rn, early February interview

 

[TokyoDrifter]

Just waitlisted as well, but the email was unclear as to whether it was for MSTP or MD-only - any other MSTP applicants receive this email?

 

[larynxlady]

I got the same email and had the same exact question lol

 

[Oshey_health]

Just waitlisted rn, early February interview

It's 5 pm over there. Why are they being savage and waitlisting outside of normal business hours? This is the same energy as the school that sent me a rejection on Saturday morning. Very rude.

 

[allthetwins]

Just asking, do they reject anyone post interview? Or is it all WL? I went back through this sub and only found pre-II R or non-specific R.
