Do we think tomorrow is the day? Certain I’m getting an R but there is 0.01% hope. Not sure what qualifies applicants for the final pool but it seems a like a majority get in based on SDN.

For what it's worth, I participated in the final interview day, and they mentioned that we were automatically placed in the final pool and should expect to hear back during the week of March 11th.

My understanding is that pre-clinical uses in-house exams but that in the clinical curriculum, NBME shelf exams are used for core rotations. This was a few years ago though I’m not sure if that has changed!

This is true. My boyfriend is an M3 and they use NBME shelf exams

 

[mudbugbranchblock]

Im guessing it's gonna be next Wednesday at this point, see y'all in a week lol

 

[virallabyrinthitis]

I guess 9 days before match is their preference, should any of us need to reapply.

 

[disciplinethemind]

Dang, was really hoping to offload some of this stress with a decision 😭😭

 

[bananaboat10]

Does anyone know if we’ll receive an email with our decision, or will we log into the portal to find out?

you should get an email that says something about an update being posted in the portal and to check there, kinda like what they did for the final pool announcement

My final pool email was very detailed, I didn’t have to log into the portal — did you have a different experience?

 

[chicagopackerfan]

Does anyone think it could be today?

Does anyone think it could be today?

Could be but last 5 years has been a Wednesday

 

[AnEndlessSourceofLove]

Sending everyone good vibes for Final Pool Decision Day! 💛 Proud of us all for making it this far, and wishing everyone the best! 🫶

 

[shinymagikarp]

As an OOS applicant, genuinely a nervous wreck for the decision release knowing full well the odds are against me. Bring it on!

 

[Malignwine]

I'm sleuthing on the website and it says "all final admissions decisions posted" on March 15th... I REALLY hope they release results tomorrow, I REALLY don't want to have to continue to wait till Friday

I'm assuming that means all decisions will be posted by March 15, not exactly on March 15

Yes, March 15th is just the deadline. So decisions will be posted by that day at the very latest, but could come sooner (probably tomorrow)

 

[littlebug<3]

if todays the day, good luck everyone!

 

[Malignwine]

Do we have ANY idea what time to expect?

Do we have ANY idea what time to expect?

Pulled this from a thread 2 years ago, credit to hawksfan4, I did not fact check it myself.....

"Some more info for those as neurotic as me: In the last 5ish cycles, if they release the results on a Wednesday, they send the email in the morning, any time from 9 to 12 am. If they release the results on a Tuesday, they've sent the email later in the afternoon, from 2-4PM.”

[tarkovskiyeva]

OOS A, interviewed december(?)
probably gonna withdraw but it is such a lovely school! Partner who goes here has nothing but praise 🙂
Congratulations fellow matriculants!

 

[king20]

Did anyone else hear back? Or are only accepted people hearing from them right now?

stressing so bad, should not have looked at sdn

 

[shinymagikarp]

stressing so bad, should not have looked at sdn

Genuinely think the fact the decisions take this long mean we are in the WL or R pile

 

[SpunkyDLuffy]

OOS WL

 

[ninidia]

OOS WL, declining. Congrats to everyone who got the A!

 

[youmatter:)]

OOS AL

 

[Bubble_hehe_XD]

IS A!!!!!!! I am shaking rn
Interview 9/23
Secondaries 8/16

 

[Willybsknees]

OOS WL…going to be withdrawing as I was accepted to my in-state school with scholarship but I want to say that this was my absolute favorite school throughout this process. Had I not had to consider a lot of family circumstances CCOM would absolutely be my first choice. If any future applicants are reading this please do yourself a favor and visit the school and the amazing faculty

 

[packerfan5]

OOS WL

 

[sunflower_phoenix]

OOS WL #81 damn this was my top choice

 

[Malignwine]

OOS WL. Not sure whether to give up hope considering I’m in the mid 40s

 

[mudbugbranchblock]

OOS R, damn. Felt really good about my interview in October

 

[shinymagikarp]

OOS R.

 

[premedbunny]

OOS R, I thought my interview went really well so I’m surprised! I would have had to decline an A anyway, so that’s okay 🙂

 

[anonymousdeinonychus]

OOS AL >80. Considering this an R since past years say the OOS only moves up 30-40😞

 

[IncredibleRatatouille]

IS WL

 

[ethandmax]

OOS R

 

[medapp1972]

OOO R. Rejections sting a little more after completing the interview

 

[king20]

OOS WL. Not sure whether to give up hope considering I’m in the mid 40s

at No.127.... don't give up hope apparently the OOS moves more than the IS "Two separate alternate lists for residents/nonresidents. Applicants are notified of position and updated on secondary. 19 residents & 46 nonresidents were accepted from alternate list in 2019 cycle."

 

[girlbossqueen]

OOS R w/strong ties to state 🙁

 

[premedddddd]

IS R, was kind of expecting it but still kinda hurts🥲

 

[BullShooter]

IS WL Position 17. Howdy Fellow IS WL neighbors! 👋🤠

 

[deleted1208873]

IS R 🙁 really stings, but glad the uncertainty is finally over. Congrats to everybody accepted!

 

[asdfghhfff]

IS A. Interviewed 9/13!

 

[cerebralforks]

+1 OOS R

 

[Malignwine]

The fact that they have a real-time tracker is so kind of them. Instead of my email, I now will have a new thing to keep on refreshing🥹.

 

[kikikat]

OOS A, interviewed November! I really love this program but it is a bit far away from my family and support system so might be withdrawing. Hopefully this deserving A goes to one of y'all!
