What we're looking for is pretty basic: an MCAT from 494ish-502ish, great overall and BCPM GPA (3.6+), excellent record of community service, demonstrated interest in primary care (shadowing and clinical experience), come from underserved backgrounds, and commitment to practicing in Florida. However, I can't stress how holistic and individualized this review process is. Hope that helps!

Hello! Can I message as well please? I meet these requirements!
 
To everyone sending private messages: The description we posted was a specific profile for our Bridge Master's Program, not the regular MD program; it was in response to a post about what we are looking for in Bridge applicants. The offer for a private message with a name was for those folks, not everyone applying, I'm sorry.

For all others: We would like to use this forum to share updates and information, but the flood of private messages has been overwhelming. We understand that this is a tough situation and these are your dreams, but we simply cannot interview everyone. We are happy to continue to interact on SDN and continue answering public forum questions! We just sent out another round of interview invites and anticipate at least one more round before we are done for the cycle.

Hope that helps!
 
Do the interview invites all go out at the same exact time and day? Like if they just sent out a new round does that mean if we didn’t get an email we can assume no invite?

Hi there! At this time of the cycle, we are sending out a large group and then as applicants decline or withdraw we continue to move along our list, so they are also coming individually.
 
I have over a 515+ mcat and a 3.8+ gpa and have not heard back after submitting my secondary app in July. Is there still a chance to get an II.

I’m in the same position, and I went to FSU. I think this is a very mission driven school, I read on Msar that they didn’t even interview anyone above like a 514 mcat. Unfortunate because this is where I want to go

I feel you, but they are trying to give us high-passion crap-stats students a chance. I would have given a finger to score 514. Your score gives you a good chance of acceptance at many schools.

Not true. My friend has a 518 and got in this cycle, but they are mission driven for sure

Sadly not always the case I have a 514 with pretty decent EC and haven’t gotten in this cycle

You still have a few weeks to get one, no?

I am on 1 waitlist and I can potentially get another interview but not looking good I’m taking the time to build resume for next cycle just in case

We have just sent out what we anticipate to be the last large batch of interview invites of the cycle, however, as invited applicants withdraw, we will continue to offer one-off interview spots.

Waitlist movement will likely start in the next couple of weeks as currently accepted applicants withdraw.

Does sending a letter of intent help your position on the waitlist?
Additionally, will we ever be told if we have a strong chance of getting off the WL?

Letters of intent are accepted from waitlisted applicants. And yes, applicants on the waitlist are told if they have a strong chance of receiving an offer once we have a better idea of how deep into the waitlist we might go.

Thank you for your response, do you have a certain time range of when that could be?

Also, on our interview day I was told there was an "accepted now" waitlist where if the committee could admit you they could but couldn't due to not having offers to give out. Is that still a thing or was everyone just placed on the waitlist?

Same! We've made it this far tho. 🤷🏽‍♀️ I'm happy to not have been immediately rejected but also strategizing how I can be a better applicant this upcoming cycle.
