Can someone update the intv tab with invite updates from yesterday and today? UTSW released 2 yesterday I think that was the only legit one haha and WVU
Any UTSW invites today?
No invites or rejections on my end. Anyone know if Iowa sent rejection yesterday? Was difficult to tell if people were trolling
How many have recieved an Iowa invite today?
Me! |
Finally some derm interview activity after what feels like forever silence! (Timestamp: October 26, 2017): U Iowa, UTSW, Penn, Cooper School interviews reported today!
Penn derm internal interviews just released
Feeling worse by the moment
Dont think its time to feel bad yet unless you are Penn internal! Only 12% of interviews are out at this point
Was hoping for Iowa
Oh, maybe send them a love letter? Are you associated with Iowa somehow, or just think its a great program overal?
Just thought it was a good program. I'm from a med school in Illinois so I thought I could get some Midwest love.
I see, well, they have several interview dates coming up, so I bet they are still going to send out some more interview invites. We shall see!
Iowa rejection x4
RTM calls started today!
From where?
Also curious as most programs have said they do not do this x2 \| RTM calls x2 (from a top 10 program) - previous spreadsheets show what programs have done RTM calls in the past (., ., ., Henry Ford, BU, etc) - Was it ., . or .?
Yale is also top 10 and outright told us at the interview that they would be making RTM calls.
not OP, but I already got a RTM call from a top 20 program this week.
WashU or Iowa?
I didn't interview at Iowa, but my friend said he got a call from them. Didnt seem like a RTM, just a hey, we think you would be a great fit, any questions? kind of call.
So you think Iowa called all of their interviewees and said "we think you'd be a great fit"? Or what exactly constitutes a RTM call? Do they have to explicitly say you are ranked to match?
. will make calls This year but as far as I can tell they haven't started
I think Iowa called everyone. Why do you think this?
Maybe Iowa is lonely.
I interviewed at Iowa and didnt get a call so.... x2 |
<<I'm also curious about this. It seems kind of early for this
Maybe it's ., they finished their interviews in mid December. Or Yale.
I got a call from Yale
Did they try to get a sense of where you ranked them?
When did you get the call from Yale? Did anyone get a call from .?
Iowa made RTM calls.
What exactly did they say on your call?
Did anyone get called by Iowa? And what did they say?
After the most recent Iowa deletion, I did some detective work, and found that Iowa-deleting-DBruh is NOT the same as spreadsheet owner DBruh, as I think the real DBruh had hypothesized. In the version history, the user “D Bruh” implicated in these deletions shows up in a different color compared to the “D Bruh” who posts sane comments and was the only one of the two posting months ago (for me, it’s dark gray blue vs turquoise). The problem is that we can’t tell who the fake DBruh is. Only the name is visible in version history, not email address, so not sure we can get rid of them. Anyway, all this is to say, lighten up on the mods. If the FBI is reading this, give me a job. x2 |
Ohhhh snap!! The real D Bruh can definitaly get rid of him/her by looking through the people he accepted and deleting
D: I told you guys! I have no way of "banning" this other person as far as I know unfortunately.
Awesome, glad you deleted this again... but does anyone know if Iowa has sent anyone a RTM notice?
| No, they have not.
Hm, how are you sure whether they have or have not made calls?
I'm an internal
Dont know whay this keeps getting deleted. I am an external, I got a call from Iowa. To whoever is "internal;" and acting like they know how it is... just because you didnt get a call does not mean they didnt make calls.... dont lie to yourself and others to make yourself feel better.
I got an encouraging call from Iowa but they did not specfically say I was RTM
I did receive a call from Iowa that explicitly used the words ranked to match.
Congrats then! x2
^ wow, A+ detective work! I pasted the most recent comments about Iowa to the left one last time... hopefully the fake D Bruh gets banned and can't delete.
Some posts are shown because their comments mention this program.
Sooo many supplementals, wtf, thank god it's only 100 words,
