A! Interviewed 8/31
+1 OOS A! Crying happy tears rn. Dartmouth totally won me over with their warm and personable interview experience, can’t wait to visit and see the school in person! Interviewed 9/7, LM 75, career changer.
LOL I was literally typing this exact question as you posted... but fingers crossed for us both if not today then another day!congrats!!! did you get an email right now or earlier like the others? just wondering when i should stop checking lol🫣

I got it at the same time as the others I think, right at 3:30. Rooting for both of y’all, last year they rolled out more As just a few days after the first batch.LOL I was literally typing this exact question as you posted... but fingers crossed for us both if not today then another day!
congrats on all the As today :') you DESERVE it!! just curious... how did you feel after the interview lol
i felt mehhhh. out of all my interviews this one felt my weakest- one interviewer was really chill and had standard questions, the other we had a full blown philosophical conversation (which i felt i floundered lol). However, it ended up better than i thought i guess. Let this be encouragement that if you maybe dont think you did all that hot, ur prolly overthinking!!congrats on all the As today :') you DESERVE it!! just curious... how did you feel after the interview lol
Congrats!! When are they scheduling out to? It seems like they haven't sent out too many IIs so far!OOS II this morning! Completed 7/15
Unfortunately I only see one date this month, which may be not feasible for me. Maybe they open up more dates?Congrats!! When are they scheduling out to? It seems like they haven't sent out too many IIs so far!
not till march if trends holdAnyone have any guess on when more A's may go out for people who have interviewed already?
I'm hoping there is another wave of As that can catch those of us who didn't get one yesterday, but I think you're right. In past years, Dartmouth just gave out As in waves for those who interviewed the month prior and WL or R everyone else in Marchnot till march if trends hold
It depends on the date of the interview so there’s still a chance. I know they released As for people who interviewed 9/29 (equivalent to 9/28 this year) after their first wave (they gave decisions Monday October 17 and Friday October 21). So if you had an interview a bit later (which I did so I’m hoping it holds true) there’s still a chanceI'm hoping there is another wave of As that can catch those of us who didn't get one yesterday, but I think you're right. In past years, Dartmouth just gave out As in waves for those who interviewed the month prior and WL or R everyone else in March
so if I interviewed in august am I probably a WL/R? Does anyone know approximately when do we find out about if we're on the waitlist?This is definitely true- it seems like only early September or end of august has gotten A’s
You did your secondaries a bit late and only a month ago. It has not been a long time. I completed mine over two months ago now and still haven't heard anything. Just have patience. I know it is super hard, but these schools have a lot of applications to go through.Does anyone know if they will still be sending out interviews because I did my secondaries on 9/18 and haven't heard a single thing?
At a school like Dartmouth who's based on partially on rolling admissions and has more than enough competitive, on-time applicants applying to the school, your chances are slim to none for an II applying this late in the cycle for MD unless you have a 520+ MCAT and a 4.0 GPA with more research publications than fingers.Does anyone know if they will still be sending out interviews because I did my secondaries on 9/18 and haven't heard a single thing?
That’s a bit of an exaggeration.At a school like Dartmouth who's based on partially on rolling admissions and has more than enough competitive, on-time applicants applying to the school, your chances are slim to none for an II applying this late in the cycle for MD unless you have a 520+ MCAT and a 4.0 GPA with more research publications than fingers.
Even then, there's about 100 other factors to consider in the equation which may hurt your chances further
My whole point was it's unrealistic to expect anything positive out of applying late into the MD cycle or as they have said, expect an interview 3 weeks after submitting a secondaryThat’s a bit of an exaggeration.
Wait, so did they say the II turn around for them is usually around three weeks?My whole point was it's unrealistic to expect anything positive out of applying late into the MD cycle or as they have said, expect an interview 3 weeks after submitting a secondary
I just saw this too, on the AAMC fair chat.Every school will be different, but I submitted my Geisel secondary last year on September 17th before ultimately being rejected pre-II around April. I reached out to ask for application feedback, and they were gracious enough to review my application and their admissions process with me. During that meeting, I was told point-blank that my completion date was not a factor and that the rejection was purely because of deficiencies in my application/experiences.
Yeah I know that... I just wasn't sure if people got interviews late in the cycle because I couldn't find anything on the previous year threads....it seemed like it was just a bunch of rejections after a certain point so I got really worried! But thanks....I got what you meantMy whole point was it's unrealistic to expect anything positive out of applying late into the MD cycle or as they have said, expect an interview 3 weeks after submitting a secondary
Thats actually very nice to hear! I feel like I am going to have to end up asking for feedback as well lolEvery school will be different, but I submitted my Geisel secondary last year on September 17th before ultimately being rejected pre-II around April.

I know its only been like 4 weeks but I feel like I have been waiting forever lolYou did your secondaries a bit late and only a month ago. It has not been a long time. I completed mine over two months ago now and still haven't heard anything. Just have patience. I know it is super hard, but these schools have a lot of applications to go through.
Honestly, my feedback session is one of the reasons this school is at the top of my list. I think I was scheduled for 20 minutes, but the person I talked to spent almost an hour going through everything with me and giving me advice on how to prepare myself to reapply. I was really blown away by how supportive they were.Thats actually very nice to hear! I feel like I am going to have to end up asking for feedback as well lol
I completed my apps for some schools three months ago now and have had no response. It's enough to drive one a little bonkers. My only advice would be to get involved in an activity and get busy. They will respond eventually.I know its only been like 4 weeks but I feel like I have been waiting forever lol
Don't lose hope! I received an II this week for an app I submitted in early JulyI know its only been like 4 weeks but I feel like I have been waiting forever lol
