Members don't see this ad.

Those of y'all that are still "under review"... do y'all know if this means they are still sending II's or is if a fancy rejection? Lol just wondering hahaha

Hi everyone! I'm prepping to apply next cycle and wanted to know if someone would be willing to share the secondary prompts from this year. I didn't see them pinned to this thread and the only other list I found for Meharry is from 2021.

1. Why do you wish to attend Meharry Medical College School of Medicine?

2. Please describe a personal situation of failure, significant challenge, or a major obstacle that you have overcome. Include a description of your coping skills and lessons you learned from that situation.

I got an update email from admissions this morning saying my application is under review. I don’t know if that has any significance this late in the cycle lol. Did anyone else get it?

Not me

 

[99shinylucario]

What phone number are yall calling? I havent seen one just the email

 

[CATCMR]

For those of us who got admit hold, is there anything we need to do again? Ms Dixon told me not to do anything, but I wanted hear from others who were on admit hold if they also got a similar answer. And I hope for all of us that spots become available so we can all get admitted.

 

[walkingbyfaith23]

Does anyone know that since they are doing both admit hold and waitlist if there is any chance of getting off the waitlist for those who are waitlisted?

I don't really think there's anything to do but just wait for movement (likely in May), pray, and hope for the best

[azael1]

can anyone who lives in Nashville can tell me if Glendale would be a okay/safe area to live in?

 

[G0dwink246]

anyone still waiting for their interviewer to contact them 🙁 its been weeks.

I’ve been looking on crime rate map and talking to others who I know live and it looks like no. Good areas are like hermitage,bellevue, Brentwood, and germantown

Thanks! Those areas are all super expensive sadly lol

 

[Gray2403]

Yeah I know lol but safety is worth it to me. Hendersonville might be a little less but it is 30 min from meharry.

I am! And there is no one to reach out about it!

Hey! i had this same issue a while back and Ms. Dixon helped. her email is [email protected].

 

[G0dwink246]

did that already she said I'd hear back soon but still nothing

 

[user2098]

Pre-II R today. I was expecting it though. If ur curious of my stats:

URM, female
Sub 500 MCAT, 3.3 undergrad, 3.8 masters (not at MMC).
4500 hours research
100 hrs clinical
Volunteer non clinical hours ~200


I made the decision to apply in 2024 once I drastically increase my MCAT score and get my hours up. I find it difficult to actively volunteer since I work FT, but I’ll find a way. Thanks guys! And good luck to everyone xoxo

 

[wavyboys21]

Sorry to hear about that!! May I ask did you get a secondary and when?

Thanks man. Received 11/28, sent 12/1

 

[mdforthepeeps]

Finally got the II😭 does anybody who interviewed recently know if the first interview is a group or individual? The wording from Ms. Dixon’s email is kinda throwing me

 

[dchmie1996]

II today... didn't even realize any schools were still interviewing this late and stressed because I've been planning on going DO for the last 4 months. I'm assuming I would be interviewing for the waitlist but can anybody confirm if there's any movement historically or not? For what it's worth I'm ORM, OOS, 3.6X cumulative, 50X (took the MCAT twice and went up 12 points from the first), heavy leadership/ECs from undergrad, and 10k clinical hours

A friend interviewed june and got accepted

 

[dmn12]

Hey! Does anyone know the likelihood of an admit-hold applicant being accepted into this cohort?

 

[packfan92]

There is movement almost every other day. People are leaving the group, being removed, and added.

 

[ssdesigorl74]

Facts hope they send out more

I really hoped they would send some out today

 

[DeeDee901]

Just withdrew my A and scholarship. Hope they both go to one of you incredible people waiting to hear back. Best of luck everyone!

Hey, the MMI was my last interview . I didn’t receive any feedback . My interviewer just asked follow up questions , but that’s about all.

 

[tl2]

Sorry to hear that. I’m glad that you are going to reapply.

[wavyboys21]

[dmn12]

It wasn’t bad. I had 2 minutes to read the scenarios & come up with a response . I also had two scenarios for mine.

kk thank you guys!! also did they tell you when you can expect to hear about a decision upon completion of your interviews?

 

[dmn12]

I believe the timeline is different for everyone. My last interview was at the beginning of April , and I received an email a week later letting me know that I was on the admit hold list. So, I’m just waiting now….. hoping a seat becomes available

 

[drinthemaking!]

Got the A today after admit hold in Feb! It says I have 10 days to pay a deposit in order to reserve my slot for the Class... does anyone know if i can remain on other waitists after this 10 days? the deadlines are a bit confusing

 

[wavyboys21]

No interview yet smh
