for the pre-interview update, would it look bad if i don't have anything to write for a particular section (research)? also, should the updates be really detailed or a few sentences? none of my activities have changed since i submitted my app other than increased hours;-;
 
for ppl who sent thank u notes, did u send one to both ur faculty interviewer and the student? if so, did u upload two different files on the portal or have them in one?
 
also i forgot what they said in the welcome session.. but did they say to *only* upload notes on the portal or to send it to the individual *and* upload to the portal?

For the pre-interview update, would one put a gap-year research position that was mentioned on the secondary gap year essay but not the AMCAS experiences section under "Updates to Research Experience" or under "Not mentioned on original application"? By "original application" do they mean primary app?

I would assume that “original application” would typically cover both primary and secondary application. However, since the primary application is the one that usually has your experiences listed on it, I would say “yes”to answer your question.
 
Anyone interview past 11/3 and recieve a decision? I know people who have gotten decisions from 11/3, but I haven't recieved anything yet

Does anyone know how to apply for the scholarships they sent in the acceptance e-mail? It seems like we need a SLU login but I'm not sure

Yes, you do. I’m a SLU undergrad, so I already had one. I suggest reaching out to finance officer or admission for SLU account setup.
 
received an II today! do you think interviewing in Jan puts you at a disadvantage since it’s relatively late in the cycle? as in are you interviewing for the waitlist? slu is one of my top choices for sure so i’m kinda worried
Not really, plenty of current med students I’ve talked to interviewed later in the cycle.
