+1 II - Complete 7/14. What a way to start a Monday morning!
Took 6 days for me. Applied sept 1st got the 2ndary back sept 7th morninghow long after adding yale to your amcas do they take to send you a secondary? decided to yolo an application here
II just now! OOS, complete early August
Late October! There were still three dates open
Congrats! Stats?II just now, complete August 29
I'm a really nontraditional student with an extensive military medicine background so I don't really think my stats are externally valid. Best of luck though!Congrats! Stats?
Complete 8/16 and nothing yet, so I am guessing R as well....Complete here at 7/13 im guessing it’s a soft R
Exactly lol. My LM is a 70.1 and I felt honored for a second before realizing they just want my $Not yale sending out recruitment emails…
I chuckled
Thank you!Here's what I think happens. Each week, interview reports are written, the entire file including interview reports and application materials are reviewed by the committee members and each interviewed applicant is given a numeric score by each committee member. There might be periodic meetings to discuss candidates and hash out any seriously discordant scores (why did Joe give a 3 when all the other committee members gave 6 or higher. Did he see something the rest of us missed or did he make an error in scoring? ) Once it is hashed out, the mean or median across all committee members who weighed in is determined and the applicant is placed on a list sorted by score. The list can be updated as often as scores are generated for more recently interviewed candidates.
When it comes time to make offers, the committee starts at the top of the list and works its way down. The top is easy, as is the bottom. In the middle it can be more difficult, particularly if there are 10 offers left to make and 25 people all with identical scores. That's where a school really gets to decide where their priorities lie and choose accordingly.
As for updates, I have no idea if they help at all at this point or if they are more valuable if you are waitlisted but really gung-ho for the Yale System.
What interview dates were available when you got your II?II received today!
LM 76 URM
Complete 07/26
Mid to late-ish novemberWhat interview dates were available when you got your II?
(Wondering if things are as quiet as they seem or they’re already booked out for the cycle lol)
Hmmm…so clearly there have been a lot more IIs than have been reported here.Mid to late-ish november
Could also be interpreted as a positive that they’re scheduling about a month out.Hmmm…so clearly there have been a lot more IIs than have been reported here.
Come on, people. Please share your IIs with the rest of us neurotics! LOL
Does it disadvantage applicants to schedule interviews at non-rolling admissions schools like Yale later?
Last reported II on last year's SDN thread was 01/08! And yes, last year's thread is as quiet as this year's.Anyone have any idea how long they send their IIs out until?
I hope not because I haven't gotten one yet. LOLIs Yale done sending interview invites???
