For any current/past students: how do you feel about the grading system? Hesitant because true pass/fail is pretty important to me!

Weird!! My final review email basically said that I was on the interview waitlist, and the peeps I know who got IIs received an email right after that final review email.
 
II this week. Complete late November LM 72. Received final review same day.
 
Just got an II! Super excited!

edit: earliest available date is the last few days of March.

They switched from letter grade to P/F during Covid and according to current students there’s no plan on going back to graded system.

Honestly I love it, lol. All that's on your transcript is a P (and even if you fail, it's marked as U - unsatisfactory until you pass the remediation, in which case it'll be a U/P). They do keep grades for GPA purposes to rank students and to put on the MSPE but programs won't see what grades you got in which courses.

I recieved under review email in late october but never got the final review email. It's been over the 6-8 weeks that they estimated for the review process. I know they said we don't need to call or email the department but I'm wondering if I should since it's reaching the 14 week mark. Maybe this is just a pre-ii rejection. Anybody in a similar situation?
 
Is there a FB or group me for accepted students?

how heavily is the interview weighed in the admission decision? I feel like I bombed my interview…

Also felt horrible after my interview, but I was accepted! I think my stats and activities were solid so maybe the interview isn't weighted too much? You have 2 weeks to submit your deposit.

AHH Congrats!! Do they tell you how soon you have to give them the deposit after the acceptance?
Click to expand...
AHH Thank you!
You have 2 weeks from the date on the official admission letter to turn in deposit. So, I got the official admission letter on 2/9. I have until 2/23 to submit the deposit.

There is a FB group for accepted students. I believe you’ll get an email about it after you pay your deposit. At least I did a couple weeks after I paid my deposit.

How would you say the quality of the rotations are over there? I just did my interview with TUNCOM yesterday and want to know more info on the rotations?

Interviewed on February 1st and received an email today saying I was waitlisted… a bit disappointed , but grateful it was not a flat out rejection.
Does anyone know how their waitlist is? Or has anyone gotten off the waitlist already for this application cycle ?

Rotations are great and I would say one of the best because all rotations are within 30 miles radius so in your 3rd/4th year you don't need to move anywhere. Once you start med school here you are good for next 4 years.

if your stats are good it's not a big deal because they know people get nervous during interview.

I had my interview and my interviewer wasn’t disrespectful or anything, but just kind of weird. They would ask me very basic and general questions (it was obvious they didn’t read my file) and would comment on my answers like it was a conversation. But whenever I tried to contribute something to the conversation, they would basically ignore me lol? I thought I was answering relatively well but idk it was kind of intimidating

Can someone tell me if they had a similar interview experience? I’m just not sure how to feel about it

(Current OMS1) If the schedule is the same as last year's, orientation should be the week before class begins on 8/1, so 7/25-7/29.

My file was closed! So yours might have been too. I was talking about my GPA and they were shocked cause obviously they couldn't see it lol
 
Withdrew my II that was scheduled for the end of the month. Hope it goes to someone else!

I didn't have my interview yet. Isn't it supposed to be closed file though?

Yes, look up TUNCOM DO26 on FB. Only issue is you have to pay the deposit to get accepted and even from there they have to verify :/
