Is there any point in hoping for an II at this point lol

Last time they sent an update email they said 67% of their interview days are still remaining. So yes, definitely still hope

I’m wondering the same!

For sure, the last email they sent said 60 some percent IIs are left. I just got mine two weeks ago, and applied very early.

 

[ilovecats13]

AWSOM can I please have an interview 😭

 

[nationalparks]

Monthly status update just sent!

 

[SubwayFiveDollarFootlong]

Holy jump scare

 

[ilovecats13]

Did anyone get an interview invite lol

 

[thepl.eb]

Just got the monthly status update and am surprised my app is still in consideration for interview considering my lower stats and how many people are applying due to the free tuition. I have a really strong mission fit since I want to go into prevention medicine and my entire application has that prevention in medicine theme. I replied to the last monthly status update with an email that was like an LOI explaining my passion, but should I sent it separately? I don't know if I'm overthinking but this is a school I would give anything to attend.

Mine says 40 percent of II slots still left!

Did you interview with them? I interviewed back in September and was waitlisted and since then I haven't gotten any update emails. I don't think its something to worry that much about!

They just sent me the email looks like it was just a little delayed

+1 Waitlist Post-Interview. I guess difficult to know given last year was the first cycle, but anyone have any idea how the movement is?

 

[rap1985]

+1 WL as well

 

[uglywesternblot]

Rcvd email stating my application has been reviewed and currently under consideration for a virtual interview

 

[Cosecant1234]

+1 WL as well

Hopefully we will both get in after the new year! Last year's forum showed a decent amount of waitlist movement.

One person on here already got off the waitlist.

 

[smoney1178]

Does anyone have an idea of the post interview acceptance rate for AWSOM?

 

[RoundaboutWay]

Those of us who interviewed 9/5, I'm assuming we will either hear back next week or after Christmas? I can't imagine they would be releasing decisions Christmas week.

I interviewed 9/5 and was waitlisted Oct 17. But I would imagine if you haven't heard back, hearing back Christmas week is unlikely.

 

[Apple dump]

Out of curiosity has anyone that hasn’t taken the preview exam gotten an interview invite? If so are you an IS or OOS applicant? I’m just wondering if I’m cooked or not lmao

I meant 12/5, no idea where 9/5 came from lol. They told us they were going to really try and get decisions to us before Christmas, but if not we would at least hear something.

I didn't take it and got an A on 11/20. IS applicant. I don't think it matters much

 

[rkdwlgh]

Just got a call from the Dean! A! He was so kind and warm

Thank you! I interviewed 12/5, OOS

 

[Prospectivestudent1212]

+1 OOS WL 😕

 

[RoundaboutWay]

late September, god is great.

Congrats man! What month is your interview scheduled for? Cause I know February is their last month for interviews. Wishing you the best of luck!

 

[winnersunite]

how many interview days have they done so far? do they have one day weekly?

 

[winnersunite]

any advice on their interviews and what they look for in accepted applicants?

 

[morningstar220]

any advice on their interviews and what they look for in accepted applicants?

My interview was pretty relaxed and conversational. I’d say prepare lightly for common med school interview questions. But definitely be yourself and let your personality come through! They are pretty up front about their values/mission on their website (improving health in Arkansas specifically using a whole-health approach)

 

[VoodooPreMed]

Does anyone actually have a chance here if they don't plan to practice in Arkansas?

 

[rkdwlgh]

Yep. I was accepted, and I don't plan to practice in Arkansas.

 

[JPace24]

Yep. I was accepted, and I don't plan to practice in Arkansas.

Where do you plan to practice?
