are they on spring break this week?
Yes it looks like they are the 4-8are they on spring break this week?
I’m guessing decisions will be made the next week then maybe?Yes it looks like they are the 4-8
Even the medical school? Thought they would have their own calendar ?Yes it looks like they are the 4-8
They may be on a different schedule, but typically it aligns with the school schedule overall. Belmont is on break this weekEven the medical school? Thought they would have their own calendar ?
Alright then we will have to wait until next week hopefully we will get some II !!!!!They may be on a different schedule, but typically it aligns with the school schedule overall. Belmont is on break this week

Anyone know the logic behind this? You'd think it'd be the opposite. I only see T10 schools even DARING to do P/F for clerkshipsLetter graded for M1 and M2, Pass/Fail during M3 and M4 years
HEAVY bump on this, spill the beans if you knowHow closely are students going to be working with the HCA's? There have been comments about HCA hospitals mistreating health care workers.
This is definitely wrongAnyone know the logic behind this? You'd think it'd be the opposite. I only see T10 schools even DARING to do P/F for clerkships
Letter graded for M1 and M2, Pass/Fail during M3 and M4 years
I have it on my notes from an info session too thoThis is definitely wrong
Has anyone reached out and asked if letters of intent are accepted or has anyone sent one and gotten a response?
I attended 2 info sessions, definitely Pass/Fail during clerkship! They’re expecting to have traditional grading only during preclinical years. I do want to understand the logic behind this, so I may attend another session and askThis is definitely wrong
Nah man, this was toooo funnyTop 10 biggest reveals in SDN history right here.
The curriculum changing isn't even a doubt in my mind. It will. In fact, ima call it rn, Frist is gonna change clerkships to H/HP/P/F for the first class so it'll basically all be gradedI think the idea is to get us through Step 1/2 and they would need grading during those years to keep track of students’ performance for likelihood to succeed. With clerkship being equally important for match I don’t really know how or why the grading system will change, but this is also a brand new school so I wouldn’t be surprised if the curriculum changes multiple times. I’m actually expecting it. Preparing to roll with the punches!
I am anxiously waiting for an II . At least you got an II. You'll be take off the waitlist and accepted!WL, interviewed 2/23. I'm literally losing hair and developing a permanent stomachache over the stress of this application cycle--it really is gonna be down to the wire isn't it 😭

Honestly at this point I feel like it is more and more unlikely......I’m hoping you get an II!

I wonder why they are trickling them outMost people here got an II after a week of being under review.
Maybe they have more applications now to deal with than they did back in NovemberI wonder why they are trickling them out

Ayo 😭You’ll get an A on July 28th, the day before classes start.
Any II today?
Thank you so much!!!! You're giving me hope!Hey guys! Just finished up my interview here and they said that there was 4ish more interview days to go so def seems like there will be more invites coming down the pipeline 🙂 interview day is also pretty chill and faculty is great!
Proverbs 3:5-6 NKJV "Trust in the LORD with all your heart, And lean not on your own understanding; In all your ways acknowledge Him, And He shall direct your paths."Thank you so much!!!! You're giving me hope!
Asked this exact question to each person I interacted with: Dean Shelton at the info session, and both my interviewers. Best I can tell is that core clerkship will be exclusively done in HCA hospitals, but preceptorships in years 1/2 are actually rarely HCA and rotations in year 4 would depend heavily on what you are pursuing.HEAVY bump on this, spill the beans if you know

this is actually really good info thanks for asking and letting us knowAsked this exact question to each person I interacted with: Dean Shelton at the info session, and both my interviewers. Best I can tell is that core clerkship will be exclusively done in HCA hospitals, but preceptorships in years 1/2 are actually rarely HCA and rotations in year 4 would depend heavily on what you are pursuing.
As for the behavior of HCA, I got answers (from Belmont faculty of course, so take it with a grain of salt) that I should think of HCA as more of a franchise situation... Some are well managed and good places to work, some are not. I've seen this view echoed on r/residency as well in my limited research.
2 things to keep in mind about HCA: 1. it's a very large for profit company (#65ish on fortune 500). And 2. It has recieved a lot of heat for over saturating the market with residents, therefore driving resident wages and working conditions down. They have been seen as doing this to help their own profit margin (why pay an attending when you can pay a resident to do much of the work in your hospital?) Some people think companies like HCA are the villains who are contributing further to the broken US Healthcare system.
For what its worth, I asked my interviewers about this and they gave me very transparent answers that made me feel that I could succeed here even with all this negativity swirling around HCA. Ultimately it's up to you to decide if you'd be willing to potentially work at a place with this reputation (at least for a year or 2). Also remember that whole FCOM, while heavily integrated with HCA, is an independent institution. You won't be going to HCA medical school. If you see something you don't like, you don't have to emulate it in your career. Hopefully this has shed some light on the issue as it has also been my #1 concern at this school. Feel free to DM if anyone wants to discuss it further.
