Any folks from 9/10 or 9/12 heard back?

9/10 and nothing yet.

 

[wheattrout]

I'm 9/10 and haven't heard back but I'm guessing if not today maybe next week

Okay thanks I was getting worried. Knowing the decision whether an R,W, or A is better than being in limbo. Goodluck with your cycle

Just got my mcat score back and scored a 495. This was my retake (first score was a 491).

I REALLY want to go to CHSU-COM for various reasons but I saw that their mcat minimum is a 500 to apply. I guess I’m just wondering if that’s a strict number or if they’ll consider my application even with that score. Overall I have a pretty good app, good extracurriculars, and a good GPA.

Or should I still turn in my app and retake for January?

Please any advice would be appreciated. Ty in advance

Edit Forgot to mention my score breakdown is 124/124/122/125

if they've posted a minimum mcat score, its unlikely they will budge from that. the best you can do is email admissions for advice and see if they can make an exception. im not sure if a january retake would count for DO schools, it may be too late, you should ask them this as well.

my first A!! Interviewed on 09/18

Just email admissions doesn’t hurt to ask maybe from a friends account. I asked about the DO letter requirement and they said it’s fine to just use two science letters which I did

do not go to this ****ty school. your mental health will suffer if you're not a academically strong student.

Can you elaborate on this pls

 

[peter pan 2024]

Can you elaborate on this pls

based on your stats so far, you seem like you will do fine. tbh they just treat people differently. if you are on dean's list, you can get away with cheating. but they do implement rules every year that prevent that. like this year, everyone has to have privacy screens. if you know the higher ups, you can get away with things. not all staff is nice, they will make fun of students in front of them if they don't pass classes/board exams. it just isn't always a supportive environment.

they made someone delete a reddit post because they wrote so much **** about the school. i'll just say whatever others have said on reddit is true and I agree.

if you want to know more, ask away on reddit. I bet if you ask why one should not attend CHSU, you will get so many responses.

 

[AspiringDoctor22]

Has anyone received the enrollment agreement yet?

 

[NocturnalSir3n]

Has anyone received the enrollment agreement yet?

Nope

 

[medgirlies]

Has anyone received the enrollment agreement yet?

Not yet! They said they are still working on getting the final details of the packet ready and the 30 days to accept/decline the offer will begin once we receive the packet

How is pre-clerkship years at CHSU? How are the mandatory TBL sessions?

 

[gclark13]

Would they call about a waitlist Or R?

 

[peter pan 2024]

pre-clerkship sucks. they are mandatory. you get a ten question quiz 4/5 days of the week in the morning. you want to sleep in? too bad, you cannot.

 

[florida1989]

Would they call about a waitlist Or R?

They said during the interview that they’d only call for acceptances & other decisions would be communicated via email.

 

[gclark13]

anyone only receive a call and no change in portal?

 

[oligeek]

Just got the call… first acceptance!!!! I’m going to be a doctor mom and dad!!
