Yes wouldn't hurt, I would emphasize service if you've been up to anything

anything else you recommend?
Doesn't hurt to say that your up to date on your projections, I remember an admin saying that helped

I heard the committee meets on Wednesdays? So possibly another round this Wednesday night? We’ll see [emoji3526] fingers crossed

So it seems that either it is an A or it is silence. No one has posted about a waitlist, deferral or rejection.

How long are they still sending interview invites?
does anyone who subscribed to the msar want to bless me with the numbers on applied vs interviewed vs matriculated from last year? I wrote down 226 interviews for 4770 applicants but i can't remember if that was in vs oos... seems way too low of an interview number to be the total if they matriculated 165

Good afternoon! According to MSAR, here is the info you requested:
Applications IS: 1288, Applications OOS: 4770, Interviewed IS: 267, Interviewed OOS: 226, Matriculated IS: 92, Matriculated OOS: 65
All the best to you this cycle, and Happy New Year!

Thank you!! Given that they probs admitted more than matriculated I'm liking those odds.

I hope so, do they accept updates? I want to send one if so. Did you send one?

Interviewed in November and got an email today asking if I could do a second interview with date options ranging from literally today to Friday. Anyone else experience this or know how to interpret it?
Wow that's so much later, I guess it's a good sign, better than silence

Got it yesterday too, I'd assume we get results 2-3 weeks post second interview

Seeing these updates makes me think that Hackensack truly is incredibly behind schedule as many have eluded to.
One can only hope 😅
Oh they explicitly said so on my interview day! They said they were running behind where they wanted to be, so I wouldn't be worried

Did any early November interviews hear back yet or know when they are expected to hear back?

Nothing yet. They said 6-8 weeks but maybe a bit longer because of the holidays.

Good luck on 2nd interview. Was your first interview early or late November?

Ok thanks!
Out of curiosity Is the new HUMC ortho residency part of 3+1 curriculum?

If I recall correctly, they said it wasn't during admissions day. They said the highly competitive programs are not included.
Completed August 1st, preliminary completed Aug 31st, and dead silence since. Anyone else in a similar boat? OOS but very strong ties to NJ and lots of work experience in NJ
+1 (no ties to NJ other than living in NYC tho)

I also was accepted with just one interview.

Got an II here last week. Emailed the admissions office twice to accept within 2 days and have not heard from them to schedule. Also cannot schedule anything in the portal. Anyone in a similar position. Should I call?
They call you pretty close to your interview date- I'd wait until close to that
