YOU can say this again, not a single II. Got a pre-secondary rejection from Charles Drew, ghosted by the rest. I don't know what the **** I did wrong this cycle.![]()
Not a single interview invite from an HBCU for me. I might be cooked chat. Having a horrible cycle so far 💔💔

The interview wasn’t bad at all. It was about 40 minutes and very conversational. SDN prepared me well.Congrats! How was the interview for you and did they ask any unexpected questions?

Does anyone know if any invites were sent out in November yet?
chillstill

same nothing yet. I have a feeling a wave of interview invites will come soon. Been silent in the HBCU's for a while. I got the reviewed message end of October as well.I haven't seen anything yet I was reviewed on Oct. 25th no word after
Hi Everyone! First off, all the best to everyone applying this cycle. The anxiety and stress can get pretty unreal lol. I applied pretty late in the cycle (mid-October) and was only recently verified. Does this put me at a significant disadvantage?

Yes, big, big disadvantage unfortunately. Nothing you can do now, but I think you should have applied next cycle. Complete in November is tough. I'm struggling with AMCAS (complete late august), but I will say I am a pretty mid applicant. LM 70-71 range. I know if I were complete end of July, I'd have at least gotten an Interview or so... I am getting more love in TMSDAS though. Good luck, I hope you will still have a successful cycle, don't lose hope.Hi Everyone! First off, all the best to everyone applying this cycle.

Hi, no you're not at a disadvantage. As long as you submit your secondary application before the deadline you still have a chance. Howard interviews all the way throughout to march. If you look at previous years some people submitted to Howard in December and January and still got an interview and accepted. So don't count yourself out yet. Keep up the hopeHi Everyone!

I mean.. you are a texas resident. It's pretty known that school's outside of texas have bias towards texas applicants due to texas having a constitutional mandate to prioritize only texas applicants.Yes, big, big disadvantage unfortunately.

Thanks for the insight! Yeah my secondaries were submitted early October and I received the email from HUCM stating that my application is in full review mid October.

You are not at a disadvantage. Howard will still be reviewing applicants into next year because they consider January MCAT scores. Like others have said, as long as your primary and secondary are in, you have a chance. Attend first fridays via zoom and read prior threads for success stories.Hi Everyone!

Has anyone who’s received the application reviewed email gotten an R? Or do most people who get that email get an II?
