ngl ucsd played a huge part in the current La Jolla/SD housing crisis so I’m not too broken up about it anyway. not tryna spend $3k/month on a 1 bed throughout med school lol

good luck to everyone interviewing!!
Same situation here! I'm honestly so ready to get outta here. Ive had to live near sdsu for a while to find affordable living
 
complete mid-July with no hold and no II, this is like the 3rd place that seems to have lost my app lol

current UCSD grad student and former undergrad... its rough out here rn
 
Is there any hard data on how many people get interviews after being out on hold? Any concrete examples?
 
Put on hold. IS, ORM, LM 76.7, WARS 83.

Let's stop assuming a "hold" is a silent R just because the chance of advancing isn't guaranteed. A hold is a hold.
I think specifically in the case of UCSD, the likelihood of getting off hold is very low based on previous reports

For some schools, like George Washington, almost everyone is placed on a hold so it doesn’t really mean anything and you could get an II regardless

You’re right, a hold is a hold! And there’s never a guarantee on what’s gonna happen next
But also it’s important to factor in the school’s adcom practices
 
For those who interviewed here, when did they say they will send out admissions decisions? Early November right?
 
Oh wow congrats. I was complete the same day was that interview for prime?
 
When do med schools stop sending secondary requests? My app was submitted late in August
 
@kimix90 @JustJackie
mine too. Based off last years thread, I didnt see anyone getting secondaries in Oct 🙁

I got a secondary, on October 14th, submitted AMCAS June 3rd. Retook MCAT 510 to 514, and just updated. Can only imagine it was due to MCAT improvement! ^^ Hold out, there is still a chance!
 
When do they typically send out interview invite for prime? Has anyone applied to that and not recieved a interview yet?
 
Does anybody have an updated timeline of when post II decisions should come out?
 
My heart skipped a beat with that email they just sent out. At least now we know we’ll all be hearing back on the 29th! I love that they let applicants know. Wish all adcoms were like this!
 
What email did they send out. There letting us know about what on the 29th?
Sorry I was referring to the convo above. They sent out an email to people who have interviewed stating that they will send a status update on 10/29 to everyone who interviewed on or before 10/14.
 
Anyone know how difficult it is for an OOS to get in here? My stats are low for this school so I’m wondering how much hope I should have post-II
