they dont screen as far as i know. you submitted end of aug so it's only natural for it to take a little bit. took me two weeks to get mine after my amcas was transmitted and i was verified before 6/28

I emailed them and they said it was a technical error on their end and didn't mean to send it to me this morning :,)
Congratulations!! 🍾. Mind if I ask about your stats?
congrats! complete date?
OOS II!! first one :') LM 75 complete 7/24
Of course! The morning is a welcome from the admissions team, after which you go through curriculum, financial aid, and a virtual tour of the school by a student. You then get to lunch time, where students get on to chat with you about literally anything. Then you do your interviews in the afternoon, and then you're done!

Does Brown even interview OOS students who took no gap years?

How’s life in Providence? Do you find yourself on the main campus often?

I msged you privately! Thanks so much for the offer 🙂
I love living in Providence! I have lived in rural towns and a big city before coming to Providence and I really feel it is the best of both worlds! Great food scene, coffee shops, walking/running/biking paths. If you are looking for nightlife, Boston is 1 hr away (40 min by train) and NYC is 2.5 hrs away. We are right on the water and a close drive to some of the best beaches in New England. I always feel safe when walking around, even at night.
I like going to main campus to study when I am sick of my house and the med school. Lots of great study areas and fun to see the undergrads. You won't have any required classes at the main campus though, everything is at the medical school or nearby hospitals.
is most of the class plmes?
Any recent IIs? It's been so quiet

I also was rejected for undergrad lol and have zero connections but was offered an II on 10/02 (complete 7/23)
There are usually ~40 PLME students out of 144 total. So it is a large presence, however my experience has been that the vast majority of them didn't know each other coming in to medical school since they are encouraged to explore different paths in undergrad. I don't think it affects the vibe of the class other than making the average age slightly younger since they typically don't take gap years.

40 is a lot. I heard usually med schools don't like their own undergrads. I wish the med school from my university takes more from her undergrads.

7/12 and still nothing either!
Any Rhode Island applicants hear anything yet? It feels like Brown reviews them separately, or at least that's what I tell myself

Anyone know how receptive they are to preII updates? Thanks
They told us at our interview day first date for decisions would be Nov 25 (this coming Monday)
I think for my cohort at least they said we would def hear Monday, but that after that they would start just being rolling. I was on the first interview day I believe so that may be why
But honestly I can’t say for sure!!
