Anyone stumble over their words 10 times during their PI (or just had an overall bad PI) but still get a virtual II later?

Hey gang,

If we have been “under consideration for a telephone interview” since Nov 5 (13 days), is it more probable (based on previous data) that we will be rejected since it is late in the cycle? Thanks so much.

Yes I repeated myself like ten times but still got the II a week later. I thought I did horrible but still got one so keep your head up!

I feel it definitely depends, I barely stumble (maybe like only 1-2 times) and feel pretty good throughout PI, but haven't heard back anything lol

If they wanted to reject you, you would have been in the massacre earlier this week. WMed only send out invites every other Wednesday, so you may not get and interview for some time.

With this school, no news is good news.

Did the portal change for anyone after their interview? I interviewed on Friday and it now shows Financials, tabs for financial aid offer/award, etc.

So it probably changed for all of us. I doubt they made a decision that quickly.

They playing mind games, open new tab to make us think that we found an Easter egg that shows us we got in. But all it did was remind us how expensive med school is

I can see tuition and tuition estimates, everything. This is cold.

Everything but the magic 'ADMITTED' word.

[deleted1122447]

I just talked to another person and checked the old thread, yep, we've been bamboozled, they add financials for everyone after interviewing

 

[WaveRace]

Rejected post phone interview, pre-virtual interview. Was part of the first round of phone interview invites. Sad getting this 2 days before Thanksgiving.

Good luck to those still in the running! WMed seems like a really cool program.

[drstrangee]

Didn’t see anything about this in the thread above, but does anyone know if there’s an accepted students FB group or anything like that?

Admissions made a Class of 2025 Facebook group for us in December. Some students created a GroupMe and posted about it there. Admissions encouraged it and I think they even sent the link out in an email. You can always contact Jean and ask if/when they'll make the Facebook group.

If you missed me earlier: M1 here, willing to answer questions from applicants and accepted students on the thread or private message.

 

[timeshare]

do they start doing calls for A's 3 weeks after the interview?

 

[student479]

Pre II R Experiences review completed 10/20

 

[Gwynbleidd]

+1 for pre II R, experiences review complete in August

 

[Dobrota]

Pre-II R just now.

 

[Gummydinosaur]

Waitlisted today. II 11/12. I'm pretty bummed but from last year's thread it seems like some people were waitlisted and accepted less than 2 weeks later, so I'm holding out hope! Congrats to everyone who has gained an A so far!

Anyone have a phone interview and then not hear back for a month? Phone interview date was 11/2/21. I assume that this is an R, but I see other folks have received Rs after a phone interview later than mine. Any virtual interviews offered to someone this late after the phone interview?

My PI was 10/3/21. I've seen people wait a few months between PI completion and II. So hopefully we still have a shot!

PI during the week of 9/20, II offered 5 weeks later in the last week of October. I also thought it was an R and started crying in the coffee shop when I saw “congratulations!”

For people who did the phone interview. Do we get an email stating that phone interview is complete and under consideration for virtual interview or is it just silence and the next email you get is the virtual II invite

I got a Phone II complete and under consideration email the following business day. The next email was the real II (about 10 days after from my phone II)
