Summary of Experience:
I really want to interview here! I hope I get a chance to check out the school and learn more about the program. The facilities look great.
Summary of Experience:
App status changed from "processing" to "preliminary review" on 10/26, small pooled on 11/2! This school seems really cool...awesome facilities, curriculum, and location!
Summary of Experience:
Secondary status says my application will be reviewed in the spring should spots remain...basically a rejection. I was surprised that I didn't receive an II from this school, but oh well! On to the next one.
Summary of Experience:
Great interview day. Interviews were relaxed and interviewers were genuinely interested in what I had to say. Loved the North Shore Health System opportunities (EMT training, early clinical experience, etc). A little hesitant about the new curriculum, definitely something to think about in terms of whether or not it will be good for me. Not in love with the area :( Students were extremely nice and welcoming, willing to share their experiences. I am hoping for an acceptance for sure!
Summary of Experience:
Not happy to be waitlisted. Technically, I am "on hold for spring consideration". I really liked this school, especially the student body. Hopefully if I write some good letters of interest they'll change their minds. However, Downstate hospital's financial crisis makes this school less appealing, and that makes me hesitant to want to go there for medical school. I guess we will see!
