Did anyone that interviewed on 1/25 hear anything back yet?
Where'd you hear that?Is it bad to be on the waitlist? I heard that UMaryland's waitlist movement is fast, but from what I saw on MSAR, very few people get accepted out of the waitlist.

I think somebody on the forum mentioned about Maryland's WL movement being fast.Where'd you hear that?
Secondary submitted in July and still haven't heard anything. Anyone else in the same boat? I went to UMD undergrad and they have all of my transcripts, letters of rec, etc. Should I assume R at this point? Fortunately I have an acceptance elsewhere.
Does anyone know the link or how to find the group me for accepted students? Thanks!I've been waiting for someone to text into it, I'll probably introduce myself, once I see a couple other people introduce themselves.
Is Maryland done interviewing?
sorry in advance if this is a dumb question, I will be applying in a future cycle. based on the website and info session recording, it seems like UMSOM emphasizes clinical experiences that involve doctor-patient interactions, specifically shadowing, interpreting, and scribing. based on the experiences of people here who got in/interviewed here, are experiences like scribing and interpreting required? Beyond a few days of shadowing, I volunteer as an MA at a community clinic but I'm not sure if this is good for UMSOM's requirements.
I think having scribing, shadowing, or some clinical patient interation-type of experience such as medical interpreting certainly doesn't hurt and can only strengthen your application. Definitely have at least one of those three, such as shadowing. But I wouldn't say its required because besides shadowing I didn't have any other kind of clinical experience. I had a research-heavy application, which helped my application and I think helped to offset my lack of clinical experience. Despite a lack of hands-on patient experience, I still got an II with UMaryland.sorry in advance if this is a dumb question, I will be applying in a future cycle. based on the website and info session recording, it seems like UMSOM emphasizes clinical experiences that involve doctor-patient interactions, specifically shadowing, interpreting, and scribing. based on the experiences of people here who got in/interviewed here, are experiences like scribing and interpreting required?

It’s definitely not a requirement. If anything, it just shows you have more experience being around doctors (which helps them tell wether or not you’ve been able to see what the day to day of a doctor actually is.) I think working as an MA is great. One of my classmates did that and that instead of scribing.sorry in advance if this is a dumb question, I will be applying in a future cycle. based on the website and info session recording, it seems like UMSOM emphasizes clinical experiences that involve doctor-patient interactions, specifically shadowing, interpreting, and scribing. based on the experiences of people here who got in/interviewed here, are experiences like scribing and interpreting required?

I was accepted to the MSTP in late January; hopefully good news is coming towards you both soon.I think there was one A reported on the SDN MD/PhD acceptances thread. I was placed "on hold" last week. I don't know what this means.
Had no clue they gave us a date. I’ve been sitting here stressed for no reason then 😭. To your actual question, I have no clue.For those who interviewed 1/25, iirc they mentioned about getting back to us with a decision more or less around 3/8. Is it possible that they could release a decision before 3/8/phone call people for acceptance notices?
They mentioned that they would get back to us about an admissions decision in about 6 weeks more or less, so if we interviewed in 1/25, 6 weeks from now would be 3/8.Had no clue they gave us a date. I’ve been sitting here stressed for no reason then 😭. To your actual question, I have no clue.
sameJust saw a new line in my application status that shows "Interview" with a lock next to it and the message "Under Review". This may mean that a Pre-II R is coming in the near future based off what others said about it on this thread as well as last year's thread. For now, all I can do is wait and see what happens.
Yep, got the UMID email on Tuesday and got WL yesterday after 1/23 interview. I think everyone who included Maryland in their FAFSA gets the UMID email.Did anyone on waitlist get the UMID set up email?
+1, was it supposed to come on the Maryland email? I didn’t see anything on the portal
Also interviewed that day and waitlisted todayWaitlisted at Maryland, Interviewed 1/25, complete 10/6, ORM, OOS, LM 70, WARS 71
Has anyone been accepted recently? It looks like on their social media they had the second look day last week, so I'm wondering if their class is already full.
Class might be “full” as of now but some people will probably not enroll here and go somewhere else. So there should still be some WL movement! But that’s just dependent on what the students decide to do I think.Has anyone been accepted recently?

How many people were at the second look or on the accepted GroupMe?According to the dean at our second look, she basically said that the the total number of people there was close to the number of people we will see in our class. Not sure what that means.

I'm not feeling optimistic about wait-list movement though. From what AMCAS said, only 15 acceptances were offered out of 200 waitlisted applicants.Class might be “full” as of now but some people will probably not enroll here and go somewhere else.

How do you access the group me? Thanks!There's currently 158 in the groupme
You should have received an accepted student email with the facebook and groupme. They send them every so oftenHow do you access the group me? Thanks!
At least 158 students have been accepted already. The final class size is 140 or 150 I think.What this number "158 " says?
Is it common for med schools to offer slightly more acceptances than the actual number of med school seats they can hold?At least 158 students have been accepted already. The final class size is 140 or 150 I think.

Does anyone know if there's a reason why they haven't sent out pre-II R's to everyone if they're done interviewing already?
Love that!!!!!Unfortunately many schools ghost applicants OR wait till the absolute end of the cycle to send out those
