Congrats! How significant was your update and was it also a letter of interest?
Thanks! Pretty significant update imo, including a new clinical job with a few months of experience. It was a letter of interest as well, yes.
Edit: They also referred to the letter in my II ("thank you for your recent letter of interest").

Thanks guys. How long was it generally? Like I want to reflect on my experiences but I read that I'm supposed to keep it under a page. So the draft I have now is very brief about the updates, but it has a significantly larger paragraph at the end explaining why I think the school is a great fit for me. I really would appreciate a general guideline on the structure of these things.

Congrats! Are you in IS or OOS? Stats?
Thanks! I didn't realize this thread doesn't show signatures lol. CA ORM, LM/WARS 70
I listed 3-4 experiences with 1-2 sentences describing and 1-2 sentences reflecting. Add in a little intro and the letter stuff ("To the AdCom of Larner COM" and "Thank you, Name"), and I reached a full page double-spaced, Times New Roman 12 with default Docs margins. Submitted as a PDF attachment.

For the locals, I am an out of stater coming to visit the school for a second look in a couple of weeks, and was wondering which ski resorts are the best near the school? (I have the Epic Pass)
Any recommendations would be much appreciated!

I'm not seeing a place to submit update letters. Is it in the portal somewhere or did you email admission directly to submit an update?

I am in the same boat as you - OOO and utter silence.
How did it go!?
did they mention anything about how many more interview invites they expect to go out?
Mine is a publication. I think I emailed it.
A research publication?

Hello! First MMI here - would anyone know if the MMI evaluates our application (e.g., academic performance, volunteer experiences) or our personal characteristics (e.g., ethical judgement, conflict resolution)? Some guidance, without discussing specifics, would definitely relieve anxiety. Thank you! I hope we all get into medical school!
Personal characteristics
more personal and how you interact with others. Very focused on social problems and LGBTQ topics 🙂
Yes

Did OOS applicants get their post-II decisions yet? I interviewed in early October and haven’t heard anything. They said on my interview day that they would start releasing OOS decisions after Dec. 15
Interviewed on 11/04 and haven't heard back, but they said our decisions would likely be mid-January. Hoping for some good news this week!
Anyone stalk old history to know when they send latest ii? :/

Did they send you a confirmation email?
Not the same person, but I did!
It came a few days later but it was during the holidays so there might've been some backup.
DM me
last year, they sent iis (reported on here) thru early to mid Feb. You can thank my craziness for this info
Perfect Valentines Day rose 🌹 for me. Skip the II. Straight to A. 😂
Hi all! Just sending good vibes; I don’t know about anyone else but I’m starting to get a bit stressed because the I would love to hear back from UVM regarding delayed decision before I start evaluating whether or not I need to reapply next cycle!
Man I am sitting on the edge of my seat with this DD

@Haitch_Peetz congrats!! was wondering if you sent the letter while being on the DD list or were you waitlisted? Also was it a more update letter or letter of interest? On the DD list and would love if Vermont worked out!! PS if you are okay with it I would love if we could message about it 🙂
It was more of an update letter, but it has some interest vibes lol. I sent it b4 getting an II, so I was just in post-2ndary limbo. Still waiting to hear back post-interview. Feel free to pm if you have any other q's.
Why today?
Idk I thought they meet on thursdays in the middle of the month :/

It’s kind of been a theme that they send status updates ~15-17th of the month.
Did they say til when they’ll be sending out II?
