Congrats on the IIs! They ask fairly standard questions that you might see online. Nothing out of the ordinary.
Interviewers can either be extremely sweet or serious, so just be prepared for either one 🙂

Congrats to both of you! Were either of you ever on pre-II hold?
Thanks! I don't think I was on hold
Pretty sure, yeah. When I got my hold I looked through the previous 2 years of SDN, and only one person was ever interviewed after the "hold" email after sending an update letter.
What about radio silence lol?
anyone who got II, did you send letters of interest?
no news is good news! if you didn't get the hold letter, then you still have a chance, evidenced by those who just got II this week.
OOS II! Complete 8/3 🙂
Hello hello future docs. Firstly, congrats to everyone accepted so far! I’m an MS3 here and always like to make myself available to any questions y’all have about UMSOM. I also was an interviewer last year so I know an tinyyyy bit about the admissions process. Ask away!
I think last year's email on Dec 20 was a hold email. Even though they mention "active consideration," a part of the email says that "Your application has been placed on hold." I also received mine that same day.
Not getting an email like that this cycle is a good sign. Almost nobody is interviewed off of hold. No news is good news! Just look at all the people that got interviews (that weren't on hold) this month.

Huh... I'm rereading the email, and they said absolutely nothing related to being on hold. I will say the second half of the email talked about sending application updates in my case, but there was zero mention of "your application is on hold" or anything to that effect. I guess it's way too late for it to still matter now, though.
Also, +1 to "no news is good news" - it's not over until it's a firm "no."

yes- it was not specific to instate or out
So happy to hear they're still extending IIs! Anyone know if they accept pre-II letters of interest?
Two seconds ago I submitted an abstract that was accepted at NEPS conference. The portal also says: "Use this tool to upload your CV, abstracts, application updates, letters of interest, or any other material that you wish to bring to the attention of the Admissions Committee. (Note: This section is optional, and is not needed to complete your application.)"
I havent submitted a letter of interest yet but I am seriously considering it (and need it cuz i have zero invites this cycle)
I sent one back in mid-December. As far as I can tell, they do.

Thx! Interviewed 1/22.
Are they handing out anymore interviews? Just wondering because I saw on Instagram that they are hosting a second look day next week for accepted students.

When I was scheduling my interview, the last date was actually today. I am not sure if they are opening more slots.
Thanks for letting us know 🥲
