At the student panel at the Open House, they mentioned that getting an A is really random. One MS2 said that she interviewed in the Fall and got accepted late April and is from Corona, so there really is no telling how they go about it. So I say for those that interviewed and have not heard back yet, do not lose hope as UCR does get to students much later than most schools.

I second this. I didn't even turn in my secondary until 11/30 and then got an II a couple of weeks later and then an A in early March.

Does UCR have established clinical rotations? I was told that they have been having recent issues with losing rotations at certain sites but unable to refute/confirm anywhere

I mean I’d say it’s more sparse then say, Loma Linda but UCR has all the clinical rotations necessary, as it’s a LCME accredited program

Why would you say that UCR has a sparse situation?

An Attending and a Resident I work with mentioned something along the same lines in two separate conversations

Did they say whether the change was a problem? Or perhaps, UCR didn’t need so many locations? UCR has many rotation locations.

I was told that they typically discourage multiple updates post-mmi. I sent an update letter that included that I intend on matriculating if given the opportunity and a thank you letter so I may have capped out haha. Good luck everybody!

I’m the same way. I want to send a LOI but feel that they understand that they’re my top choice. Hopefully whatever you decide gets you that A though🙏🫡

I had sent an update letter a few months after my interview, and then a letter of intent a few months after that. Havent heard anything since so... take my advice with a grain of salt lol
 
Did anyone here interview for a conditional admit program or heard anything with regards to this program since interviews?
