Do you know if the TMDSAS application also gets sent to the MSTP adcom if applying for both? Not sure if to include info from my TMDSAS app on my MSTP secondaries in the case that it is sent.
pretty sure all bcm interviews are open file
called and talked to folks in admissions--they were very kind to clear it up! apparently that md only secondary is "to determine your fit for Temple Campus" haha. They said I was ok without sending it! personally I didn't include stuff I covered on my tmdsas primary in my secondary. idk what they see but I recall seeing both of my letter packets in the received tab so id try not to reiterate to be safe.
Baylor spells out their preferences about updates clearly on their web page:
Congrats! Hoping today is another wave of interviews for all of us!
Hoping the best for John and Amy 🙏🏻
Waitlisted
Well since those last 3 dates in February are all BS/MD candidates, they are a younger bunch and won’t be in the TMDSAS match this year so I don’t see any conflict with this interview list
And I forgot one date:
Surprised they have 4 BS/MD dates. What are the feeders outside of Debakey high school and Baylor undergrad since Rice cancelled?
Don't they have a few early assurances as well
Honestly don’t know
Baylor/Baylor has 6 seats, Debakey high school used to have 10 seats via Univ Houston, they dont mention how many for St. Mary's but they also have 3 seats for Xaviers. Wonder how many go for JAMP (there is no BS/MD interview for specific colleges, only direct MD interview).
ii invite just now! super excited
when were your completion dates?
I was complete 6/9 for Baylor
You are doing well! Seems like you have applied far and wide.
Thank you! I have applied to a couple of places (more like a few...), and we'll see where life takes me for the next 4 years!
This is a super rough estimate, but going off msar - they interview about 900 in-state applicants for 150 -160 in-state spots. You would think that a lot of these would cross-interview and split somewhat evenly in ranking Southwestern as their top choice over Baylor, leaving you with 500ish prospective students going after ~ 160 spots. You have to ignore a lot of confounding variables (e.g. interview performance), but looking at it bare bones like this, you end up with a 1 in 3 chance.
thanks!!! I wonder what their ratio of offers to matriculation is... im hoping it's like 250 offers for 160 spots
900 in-state interviews or total? I thought they interview many OOS applicants with a much lower acceptance rate and it dilute overall acceptance rate?
That's just the in-state number, but yes OOS is a whole different ball game
Thanks! So ~50% in-state acceptance (500/900) from in-state interview population and ~35% matriculations to acceptance offer (~17% matriculation from in-state interview population)? Is this number similar to Southwestern as well in other words is one harder/easier to get accepted over other for the in-state students?
Where are you getting the 150-160 number? Does that include Temple?
We're probably looking at similar data, I was using the report published by Baylor Registrar's office every year. It doesn't specify if it includes the temple campus or not.
They will assign you a date but if you absolutely cannot make that date email them and ask if you could schedule for a different date
These ballpark calculations can be a little difficult since you are trying to get a hard number with incomplete data.
Someone went through US News data submitted by schools and calculated Baylor had a 32.44% Post-II A rate IS and 33.51% OOS last year. I believe based on how it’s presented that it encompasses both the Houston and Temple campuses.
That’s 230 IS A’s and 158 enrolled, for OOS it’s 65 A’s and 27 enrolled.
These numbers don't add up though:
Your numbers dont reflect Temple unless Baylor published 2023 numbers and even then the number of seats at Baylor went up by 40 to 220 so we should see that total.
There were fewer than 6500 total MD primary applications submitted to TMDSAS last year, and some people didn't try applying to Baylor and/or never completed their secondaries.
MSAR says 5877 apps last year. I think your interview rate numbers are also a little different from the most recent version of the spreadsheet (which I didn’t make myself and can’t completely verify). The current version has a 17.17% IS interview rate and 11.73% for OOS.
I dont predict anything. If someone has numbers, they need to ensure it is for specific year and state what has changed. Things DEFINITELY have changed for Baylor since 2022.
7/11
