has anyone tried emailing/contacting the admissions advisor for feedback on their app after receiving a pre-ii R?

So last cycle I received my R in november after submitting early August. I emailed someone on the adcom after the cycle ended in July and introduced myself, and they were open to giving me feedback. It was very helpful and I was able to fix my essays (make it more focused with the schools missions/specific/etc). This year I received a II mid October after submitting in late July (OOS) and I do credit it to learning more about my shortcomings.

Read our advice for reapplying to the UW School of Medicine and Public Health's MD program and contact us with any remaining questions.

At this link they do talk about how they recommend reaching out to your own premed advisor and then their office! So I think you can email them to ask!
 
Looks like the admissions twitter responded to someone and said earliest acceptances will start going out the week before Thanksgiving.

does anyone know acceptance rate for OOS students? looks like last year 313 were interviewed and 52 matriculated, but dont schools accept more people with the expectation that some students will choose to go elsewhere?
 
Has anyone here sent a letter of intent to schools they haven’t heard from yet? Wondering how effective they are

62.6% post-II according to that one spreadsheet from TheDataKing, but those are 2021 (I think) numbers

During my interview they said about 40% of interviewed IS applicants will get an A, and about 30% OOS applicants will get an A.

MSAR data from last year tracks. If I recall correctly it might be a little higher for IS.

Thanks for this! Guess there’s hope for us! I’m kinda surprised I wasn’t straight R tbh, I’m oos with not amazing stats BUT, I’m truly grateful to even be considered further.
 
I'm not super confident I'll be in this admission batch, since I interviewed late October, but man oh man is the suspense exciting 😅.

I know WARM applicants in the past got admissions delivered by snail mail so it's a nice lil extra surprise.

My work productivity is in the toilet that's for sure.
 
i believe the ppl who interviewed the week before and the group i interviewed w are the only ones in this batch. and then end of oct ppl are next batch. i mean its a freaking miracle i got an interview to being with… but man i feel ya with the decline in productivity

I interviewed 10/20, the admission director mentioned of hearing decisions the week before or the week of Thanksgiving.

freaking out about decisions next week 😭

just needed to say that “out loud”

I was gonna ask this actually. Does "week before Thanksgiving" mean this coming week? Not the days immediately before Thanksgiving?

Now I am going to be stressing too haha!
