The PSTP is different than the in-depth research experience pathway, correct?

PSTP is MD/PhD
I erred, see below

PSTP is MD/PhD

PSTP is not the same as MD/PhD

MD/PhD is MSTP, PSTP is a 5 year research program

The distinction between PSTP and MSTP makes sense to me, but on the curriculum pathways it shows “regular MD + in-depth research pathway” (no extra degree) which is 5 years. But in the MD physician scientists programs, it lists PSTP, Berg Scholars, and MSTP. I’m confused if the “in-depth research experience pathway” and PSTP are two separate things.

do we expect any more R waves/movement today? also if we have survived the R wave so far is it a good sign?

I think it just auto disappears after a week or so of interviewing. They said you have to send post interview updates within a week

If I applied late September, would I have heard back yet? (MSTP) I applied super late everywhere and have no idea what I'm doing with applications but I think my app is good but still nervous.

Just to follow up, I don't want to date things for anonymity, but somewhat recently OOS II!
