Are all the med school facilities (library, study spaces, lecture halls etc.) constructed yet?

So the brand new building won't be done until our third year at the earliest (but who knows if they are able to actually stick to that timeline; they haven't even broken ground yet). In the meantime, we'll be in the health science center and they have a library and some study spaces. We also toured the area where we'll be doing standarized patients as well as the VR anatomy center. Not sure about lectures halls tho. I think we'll just be in the various classrooms they have which are definitely large enough to hold 40 students.
Am sure they can do classes on UT tyler regular classrooms in the mean time, didactic labs are more important and those seem to be in place already.

From my understanding all classes will be held at the health science center in the brand new public health building, however, I could be mistaken. They never mentioned going to UT Tyler

I keep forgetting that the class size is only 40 lol. That could fit in a mediums-sized classroom lol

Yeah their classrooms are fairly large. Maybe in the new building they'll include a lecture hall? I'm sure the class size may increase in the next few years, but who knows.
Yes also since there is no classes 2 days of the week and is only 40 studenst Y1 and 80 Y2 am sure they will manage. probaly after is finished they Increase their class numbers.
Classes will be at the academic center at UT north, they have a large lecture hall, many smaller classrooms and are renovating the first floor of the adjacent hospital for simulation exercises. Cadaver lab is the only thing at the midtown campus but they said we won’t use that as frequently as we will use digital models!

That was something I needed to get clarified. So we are going to have some work with cadavers, but it will be mostly VR?
Yeah, cadaver work will be for surgical dexterity but we would be using literal VR for some stuff as well as anatomy “tables” which are big screens!

Letters of interest to this school should probably be sent after January 29th (end of the pre-match period) but before Match Day if we don't receive a pre-match? Is that the rule of thumb?

Have they said if they’re going to be prematch heavy?
D
deleted1106377
They do plan on sending a lot of prematches relative to their class size. They stated it on one of their Q&As I believe.
Thank you. I read up on it.
How many people are there each interview day?
There were about 15 at mine I think
they are all 12 each (split into two groups of 6 for MMI/Group Activity)

Mine also had 12
For my other peeps who this is their top choice & are yearning for that A... I have set a countdown to christmas as I figure "early December" would technically be before this. At MOST we hypothetically have 54 days. Stay strong brethren.
I would put money that it's going to be mostly A's and WLs, I doubt they'll send too many rejections until match!
true, most TMDSAS schools will let the applications ride and let Match Day be their rejector

So if I understand correctly, UT Tyler is a very prematch-heavy school that will prematch almost its entire class in December? And anyone who interviews before that date, even by a week, can prematch?

I believe that is the general consensus

deleted1106377
LOL that'd would be one hell of a christmas present
D
deleted1106377
I'm more optimistic and have it as the first week or so of december lol.
Tbh I'm not counting the days because I'm trying not to get my hopes up. It'll drive me insane
D
deleted760686
Yeah, not having any expectations until Match Day will make the process easier
D
deleted1106377
Yeah that's a fair point, and I 100% agree. I'll try not to count the days so it'll be more bearable
my brain refuses to allow me to do this <3
cool podcast episode with the dean!
I dont think it matters who they are sending prematches to. Their matrix is 25% biased towards the region already so the overwhelming number of admissions will be biased towards regional mission with that kind of weight.
D
deleted760686
I feel like if you’ve beat the odds and gotten an interview as an out-of-region applicant, you’re eligible for a prematch.

For reference with the numbers on their website:
Current interview chances: about 2.7% (4200 applicants and 115 interviews). You already got that far!!!
They can not do that, they however can not admit any OOS.
I think it was a joke my friend
I hope they can tell me more jokes in person when we are both at Tyler.
