I wonder if they update the portal or email as well? Bc what if someone misses the call

My portal has not been updated yet. The dean who spoke with me said to expect an email this week. She also said I missed her first call so and they know sometimes we just dont answer

Praying we get some more acceptance calls today [emoji120]

 

[Deggroll]

Seeing that acceptance yesterday got me going crazy

 

[Letmeinpleaseucr]

no email, even as of today

 

[Cofeenerd]

Any lucky goose today?

I see on the MSAR they accept letters of interest (showing why you’d be a strong fit for the school and basically saying hey I’m really interested). Anyone know if they’re okay with a letter of interest before an interview invite but after secondary submission? I know some schools allow this and even encourage but wanted to see if anyone has more info on it for UCR

It's a good question... I am also interested to know... anyone can shade some light here?

Normally people send them after the interview. If you don't receive an interview by December then maybe it's worth it.

Hopefully todays the day!

Tips on how to prepare for the interview?? Is it open file or closed?

I think by going to be their info session will help you a lot!

 

[Hiiiii2024]

Do you know when the info session is?

 

[Cofeenerd]

Do you know when the info session is?

It is invitation only, once you get an interview

 

[Hiiiii2024]

Ohh gotcha, thanks for letting me know.

 

[USSFSpecialist]

Another week of hoping UCR sends some As 🙏

 

[Letmeinpleaseucr]

Tips on how to prepare for the interview?? Is it open file or closed?

Closed file, use the BEMO MMI questions as a guideline. be able to answer the prompt in about 3-4 minutes so you can chat with the interviewer. Having a conversation beyond the question in my eyes is very important in MMIs

 

[Cofeenerd]

UC employees get tomorrow and Friday off, this is not our week. Happy Thanksgiving y’all!! Let’s hope we hear back the following week!!

 

[Deggroll]

The good thing is that next week should be the first big wave of As

 

[DrBlueWaters]

Praying that today will be our acceptance day!

 

[USSFSpecialist]

Same, looks like they started around 3PM last year

 

[Cofeenerd]

Same, looks like they started around 3PM last year

oh boy, I was gonna start to be anxious around 4:30pm lol, now I moved my anxiety scheduled up to 3PM lol

 

[USSFSpecialist]

UCR playing with all of our emotions smh

 

[pennyblossm]

this is so painful 😭

 

[Letmeinpleaseucr]

this is so painful 😭

I dont know why theyre making yall wait so long lol

 

[USSFSpecialist]

I dont know why theyre making yall wait so long lol

Fr, I saw that last year there was like a single person on cycletrack who got in around when you did, and then they released the first big wave on Dec 4. Hoping (again) that today is the day. After getting the soft WL from Kaiser, and now WL'd at ETSU and USUHS, I feel like I'm COOKED

 

[Cofeenerd]

At this point I wish they just make a national decision day, let's say March 1st, all the schools release their decision on that day and you have 7 days to chose the school and drop the rest lol The uncertainty is killing me

 

[MikoMiko9]

Anyone knows if they are done with II? Or more to come?

 

[Cofeenerd]

Anyone knows if they are done with II? Or more to come?

Maybe check last year's trend?

 

[chickenloverr5]

to those that went to the prime mixer how was it?

 

[DrBlueWaters]

to those that went to the prime mixer how was it?

It was nice, lots of networking opportunities, lots of information but mostly the same stuff available online

 

[pennyblossm]

When was the prime mixer?

 

[Hiiiii2024]

It was last night

 

[MVMed99]

When are they gonna drop these decisions lol

 

[slownsteady02]

Yall know if they require research over the summer? Like ik most schools make their students do some type of research and im tryna get info on that.

 

[Cofeenerd]

Everything's alright when
She calls me back, she calls me back
Lost for a long time
Two parallel lines
Everything's alright when
She calls me back, she calls me back (yeah)

They do not! You don’t have to do research if you don’t want to but we do have one research project they want us to complete over the course of our first 3 years! It’s not bad

 

[DrBlueWaters]

I dont know why theyre making yall wait so long lol

Did they ever send an email or update your portal?

 

[Letmeinpleaseucr]

Did they ever send an email or update your portal?

Yeah i got an email about a week after the call and then my portal changed. The whole week I thought i was being pranked lol

 

[USSFSpecialist]

Your gunna get Kaiser, I expect you to be my classmate lol

Tell them to accept me then lol. Hopefully I get some positive news when WL movement begins in the spring.

We'll both get in because you will get attending medical school with the GOAT of sarcasm. There is no universe where that won't happen. 😤

Fr, it’s in the stars. Are you admitted to any other schools yet? I haven’t gotten into an MD program so currently I have my seat reserved at MSUCOM. Did you apply DO?

Kaiser is my only interview thus far. This really is a black box if I got an early II for Kaiser but haven't gotten from other schools. I applied to 43 schools.

No, I didn't apply DO.

 

[pleasegimmeA]

in past cycles ucr sent out a couple waves by now. what is happening :,). seems like we're 3 weeks behind😢

 

[EnlightenMint]

Maybe today will be the day :’)

 

[USSFSpecialist]

Maybe today will be the day :’)

I hope so, I wonder what is taking so long.. it seems this is the longest they have waited to release the first big A wave

 

[pennyblossm]

I guess nothing again today 😢
