nope but my portal says it's been submitted!Has anyone gotten a confirmation email that their secondary is completed after submitting? Worried it didn't actually submit because I kept getting logged out...
did you figure it out? encountering the same issue
No I never heard back from OHSU. Idk about you guys but I’m on the east coast w/ citizens bank credit and debit so I’m not sure if that has anything to do with it. I’m not sure if my bank thought it was “fraud” trying to submit a payment to Oregon. I ended up using a friend’s discover credit card which worked. So my advice would be to try a credit card from a different bank
This school is pretty mission based, I would read up on if you really fit with their mission, otherwise a waste of $120
Ah I see, I already submitted secondaries for like 30 schools with no II yet so I'm getting pretty paranoid haha
Yeah you need to have a connection to Oregon (graduated hs, current resident etc). I would suggest applying to another school unless you have some type of connection.
Congrats!!!
CONGRATS!!! you got it this cycle. Always pulling hard for the reapplicants
Thank you!!! Hoping this year is my year
Try using a different web browser. I was running into this issue in Safari. I tried different CCs, entering the info directly and through the Click Pay feature. I kept getting errors. Once I tried it in Chrome, payment was successfully submitted.
During my interviews last year i want to say there was about 30 people at the orientation, I interviewed in early September. If they’re only at the first round, I’d say that’s probably the amount. Rough estimate, could be totally offDoes anyone know how many IIs they have sent out? Looks like last year there was a current student in the thread who was really helpful in informing applicants about interview and offer updates. Praying for someone like that this year too
OHSU really favors IS and OOS people with ties to Oregon. If you don’t have any ties, your chances are super slim. If you have the funds and are confident in your scores/writing, worth lobbing it up there. But tbh might be worth saving the $120 if you’re not sure about your app
Def apply if you fit the mission but be aware that of the 6000 apps, 420 are Oregon residents and 120 of the 150 spots go to them. It’s like apying to a Texas school with no ties
On their admissions page they say:
"The MD program gives strong preference to:
If you fit in any of these categories might as well give it a shot.
- Oregon residents.
- Nonresidents with Oregon Heritage.
- Nonresidents with outstanding achievements in academics and significant experiences in health care, leadership, extracurricular activities and/or community service.
- Applicants with a demonstrated ability to overcome adversity and/or applicants who have personally experienced inequities within the healthcare system.
- Students applying to OHSU’s dual degree programs such as the MD/PhD and MD/MPH
- Applicants who are WICHE-certified in allopathic medicine."
yeah there is one, gotta log into the portal to answer it
Where do you see that? I'm looking at the portal and don't see anything about a timed question. Also didn't see anything in the II email.
I filled it out the day I got my II, it was towards the bottom of the portal right after the MMI confidentiality agreement. I don’t see it in my portal anymore either though, but it gave me like 10 mins to answer a question and said it was due the Sunday before my interview date. I dont know what happened to it
Yeah, I don't see it but I think some people were having the same issue last year if I remember correctly.
This is super helpful thank you
I think I'll save myself from writing another secondary
hope you make it kogibear, show em what you got!This is super helpful thank you
interview invite
thank you! also quick question did people get confirmation emails when they submitted the secondary? It shows as submitted on the portal but I did not get a payment receipt or a confirmation email the way I've gotten with some other schoolsinterview invite
nope, nothing for me right after
You should be able to enter one and then additional ones after. Just add each rec letter as its own input with source "AMCAS Letters Service".
Thank you!
Unfortunately you and everyone else tends to think so, and admission knows this
Also, I didn't see the timed typed question on my portal this year. Someone mentioned it before in this thread, was wondering if anyone else is experiencing this?
I didn't have one again this year.
Did you interview at OHSU last year?
Hi! I did, and I did request feedback. However it was already in March/April when I got my final decision so it was too late for me to find a job that exactly fits what they suggested. I did switch to a job that was better than the previous one and I wrote about that in my applications. I just remembered that last cycle in the orientation the Dean said that OHSU will use a higher standard for reapplicants so, panicking right now…
Got it, thank you!
Honestly, most reapplicants need to take a full extra year to make real changes to their application. This is especially true for those who interviewed and were rejected rather than waitlisted.
Sorry but what does LM 73 mean?
It is a SDN specific score that you get based on GPA and MCAT I think it stands for LizzyM Score
