nope! 514 and 3.5, not sure
Doesn’t make a lot of sense. They said in the info session that those metrics would be the tool for secondary screening. They didn’t say anything about a preliminary review
Other factors besides those two numbers appear in your primary app, y’all.
While we’re naturally curious, I feel like it’s unkind to question somebody who has just been turned down.
Good luck to the rest of you & let’s be understanding

actual GOATed comment lmfaoo
You’re right, I apologize.
I think primarily it will be because it would make poor financial sense to have a brand new medical school sit empty for a full year. My gut tells me that they are just accepting that starting a new school will have its growing pains no matter what, so might as well rip the bandaid off. It is late in the cycle though, so total applications, interviews and overall class size will be interesting to see!
Northstate was able to fill even though they started the process 4 weeks before school started. They didn't even use AMCAS, just faxes!

Wow! That's impressive! Since you mentioned faxes I feel compelled to ask what year that was? 🤣
We have had several new MD schools open up in Texas over the last 8 years. Two started taking applications in October and one started taking them in February 😳 the year they opened, and they still selected a class in time to start in summer.
The planning for this school has been in the works for a while and I was thinking they would wait until next year to take applications, not sure why they decided to go forward this year. They do have more work to do in nailing down details and being able to answer the valid questions you applicants have.

Anybody notice on the secondary they ask for your typical T-shirt size? 😂
One of the newer Texas schools did that their first application year and it was so they could give everyone who came for an interview a school

Anyone else still waiting for a secondary?
When did you apply? Might be dependent on when you applied + stats (what they stated they would screen).
