I would say so. I don't have the most amount of service hours but very meaningful/leadership experiences that I was able to speak upon in my secondary responses and connect to opportunities at WSU that I hope to be involved with

That’s awesome!! You got this! Did you have your interview yet?

Same here! 😭 I think my secondary essays are very strong and fit their mission perfectly.

Not yet, but based on other peoples feedback it appears to be a very applicant-friendly interview. Best of luck with everything!

Hi,
Could you elaborate on this? What makes the interview very applicant-friendly?

Just implying that it's a chill interview, not trying to grill you, very conversational, etc.

Hi,
If there are any current or former Wayne State medical students on this page, would you be open to answering some questions about your experience at this school? Thank you!

they literally denied me and keep sending me these

 

[PagingDr.V]

Does Wayne State send a secondary app to every single applicant or do they screen first?

 

[saran_wrap]

Do you all think that going to this on-ramp webinar would affect my chances at getting an interview? Like do they factor demonstrated interest into these decisions?

Not sure but they do ask for your aamc id

 

[futurederm1214]

Oh no! Sorry to hear that 🙁 When did you submit your secondary?

 

[futurederm1214]

I'm definitely attending! It doesn't hurt. May help your chances or have no affect. I would attend if you have the time 🙂

Yeah, I think they send secondaries to everyone who submits the primary app.

 

[deleted1195293]

Yeah, I think they send secondaries to everyone who submits the primary app.

does everyone get the "we were impressed by your AMCAS application" when invited to secondary?

 

[averagepremed0101]

does everyone get the "we were impressed by your AMCAS application" when invited to secondary?

Yup 😂

 

[stew_md]

does everyone get the "we were impressed by your AMCAS application" when invited to secondary?

Probably, I did.

 

[PagingDr.V]

does everyone get the "we were impressed by your AMCAS application" when invited to secondary?

Yes 🤣 that's why I asked if everyone received secondaries. I feel played lol

 

[futurederm1214]

Yup 😂

lol yeah I only think Central Michigan screens your primary first before sending out a secondary! MSU also sends secondaries to everyone.

This is probably the last year that I’ll be doing this, but I graduated with the class of 2024 and I’ll gladly answer questions about the clinical program, scholarly concentrations, research, and life in Detroit.
I completed my pre-clinical training during CoVID so I’m not able to answer any questions about the preclinical program.

 

[aKidCanDream23]

Have there been waves of Rs sent here yet?

 

[youngdumbandbroke]

According to Cycletrack there have been several Rs sent out

How is the campus life/vibe? My pre-med mentor who interviewed last year wasn't too sad about her WL because she felt the campus and area weren't the best.

 

[GooseGirl24]

anyone complete after 7/20 get an II yet?

Complete 8/8 IS II 8/15!

Hi! Did my interview today and learned a lot about the school. What is life like in Detroit?

 

[FutureMD.ddoja]

My application status shows “ready for review”. Does this change to under review or something when they actually review your app?

Honestly, who cares? Knowing that doesn't affect you at all.

It will likely stay like that. I still have it despite interviewing.

 

[rohdezz]

Midtown is a very nice, safe neighborhood to be in. There are lots of restaurants (such as pie sci pizza). There’s also a Whole Foods near campus and the entire neighborhood is patrolled by Wayne State police, which makes it much safer than the rest of Detroit. Scott Hall might not be the nicest building around, but It has several different spaces available to study in and there’s a nice student lounge that I never used. There is also a dedicated medical student gym at Scott Hall and several other relaxation spaces such as a meditation room and a music room.

Detroit is a major city. It has a vibrant food scene with an especially strong focus on African food and Middle Eastern food. If you’re looking for entertainment, there are several major museums available and you get free or deeply discounted access to them with your Wayne state student ID. Windsor Ontario is right next-door, they have a casino and some additional entertainment options that Detroit does not have. If you’re interested in hiking there quite a few nice state parks in the suburbs surrounding Detroit.
Like a lot of big cities, Detroit has its own share of unsafe neighborhoods. As long as you take basic safety precautions, you’ll be fine.

Has anyone else still not received secondary?

Hi can you talk a bit about the scholarly concentrations? Are they mandatory?

 

[merandderek]

Hi can you talk a bit about the scholarly concentrations? Are they mandatory?

M3 here! Scholarly concentrations are completely optional. You will have the option to join one during M1 and M2 if you would like, but they are definitely not required.

 

[FutureMD.ddoja]

any edp applicants still waiting on a II

still waiting

 

[gilgameshMD]

Anyone not receive a link for the welcome session for tomorrow's AM track interviews?

Edit: Came in at 11:50pm. Don't be worried if you don't see it the day before!

 

[DeleriousStudent13]

I attended the webinar on Wednesday, and just got a notification that Wayne State was checking out my LinkedIn. Please stop teasing me and send me an interview invite. 🙄

 

[ClashRoyaleKing]

Got an invite to tour the campus in September, only available to interviewees. Interesting, but I’m not even accepted yet.

"Available to interviewees"
nobody can be accepted until October 15th

First rejection of the cycle 🙁

+1. Is it ok if we don’t go to the tour? It would require me missing classes, flying, booking a hotel etc. I just hope it doesn’t reflect that I am not interested in the school - even though I am.

I mean, many applicants are school. They should understand. Maybe send them an email thanking them for the invitation and that you hope to visit when availability allows.

Sorry to hear that. When were you complete?
