This forum made possible through the generous support of SDN members, donors, and sponsors. Thank you.
For those accepted, y’all haven’t received anything else (email, portal update, etc.) besides the phone call right?

No just the phone call I honestly don’t even remember what she said after “accepted” does anyone know what does come next?

In a few days you'll get an official email with your acceptance letter (it took 5 for mine to show up). In the portal, you'll have to sign an acknowledgement of acceptance once it's available. It should be there by the time you get the email
 
Does anyone know if their grading scale is pass/fail for preclinical and clinical years? Thank you in advance 😊
 
Edit: Look at Doc331's reply, he is a current student and gave great information that is more accurate than mine.

I feel like I can say with confidence that they are P/F for preclinical, beyond that they are not. And I can't say for sure if preclinical is "true P/F" either. When people say "true P/F" to me that means P/F in preclinical with no internal rankings. I've had some students tell me it's going to True P/F, but that is not what I was led to believe in my interview.

The first person who spoke to us, who I'm pretty sure was from the deans office, said "Every school has some form of internal rankings, no matter what they advertise." That's a direct quote. This is in line with information I've found here on SDN in these threads

SMPH vs Keck thread

Wisconsin 2019-2020 thread, including a great breakdown from a current student of daily life, pros and cons, etc.

Wisconsin 2020-2021 thread with current student stating it's P/F with internal rankings.

Here's the handbook: https://www.med.wisc.edu/media/medw...ation/md-program/medical-student-handbook.pdf

Grades earned in pass/fail courses are not included in the GPA calculation, but percent ranks are used for calculation of Cumulative Comparative Performance.

As for clinical work I'm pretty sure it's H/HP/P/LP/F.

Are you In-state or Out of state??? Stats? I interviewed 10/22 and haven't heard back

Out of state! And lizzy score of 73. I would honestly reach out and ask about the status of your application. It might be that your interviewer didn’t submit your review on time? They said they don’t make silent decisions. Good luck 🙂
 
Did anyone not attend the ForWard Curriculum Q&A and still get an A? I'm not sure I'll be able to make it on a Wednesday.
 
Anyone else get that "interview hold-like" email in December saying you were reviewed, set aside, and would hear from them in January and still haven't heard anything? Do we think there are any more interviews to go out or are they just waiting a bit to mass reject?

+2, why get our hopes up? Just why?
 
Got the A, exactly 8 weeks after my interview! Hopefully more calls are going out today! I also got that email and I guess technically they never said you would hear back in January (just that you wouldn't hear back BEFORE January). I honestly think they are just going slow and we already know they don't hold decisions for later.
 
Those of you who got acceptance calls today or yesterday - was there any mention of scholarships during your call? Trying to determine if the scholarship committee has met yet for this round of decisions. Thanks!

There was not any mention of scholarships during my call yesterday. Haven’t even received the official acceptance email yet 😅

Nope. Do they normally do this for all scholarships?

I was notified of my scholarship when I received my call, then I received an email to confirm the scholarship a few days later
 
Has anyone from the 1/12-1/14 interview experience heard back yet?
