Any current Medical Students here that would be okay with me DMing them a few questions about Netter? Much appreciated! Thank you!
Congrats! When did u interview?OOS A, fast turn around
1/12Congrats! When did u interview?
go for it, theres a few others that post here as well, feel free to message any of themAny current Medical Students here that would be okay with me DMing them a few questions about Netter? Much appreciated! Thank you!
i appreciated getting thoughtful emails when i did interviews, certainly not expected or required, probably won't move the needle much, but it is a great way to follow up with questions and stay connected if you vibed with them. i've stayed in touch with multiple people that i interviewed who were accepted and was able to help with housing, etcthe med student interviewer gave me her email! As for the faculty interviewer I reached out to our admissions contact and he provided the email. Both replied immediately and were very appreciative!
thoughtful meaning something more than a generic copy pasted letter. it doesnt need to be a noveli appreciated getting thoughtful emails when i did interviews, certainly not expected or required, probably won't move the needle much, but it is a great way to follow up with questions and stay connected if you vibed with them. i've stayed in touch with multiple people that i interviewed who were accepted and was able to help with housing, etc
yeah? they have some mission statement stuff on the webpage. i get the impression the adcom values demonstrated commitment to service more than other places. definitely not primarily research focused, though my understanding is the new dean was brought on in part to improve that area.What kinda school is Quinnipiac? Service-oriented?
the usual places are a good start, zillow, apartmentfinder, etc. craigslist is pretty good for student rentals. canal crossing and town walk are very popular appts. theres tons in the area and a housing sheet will be sent later to accepted studentsHello! Sorry for being off topic, but I was wondering if there were any current med students here who know where to search for affordable housing options or have any recommendations for particular apt complexes?
OOS A earlier today!!! Words can’t express how excited I am right now. Interviewed mid January
Got an II todaydo we think they are done sending out II?
did they mention anything about a priority WL?OOS WL just now, interviewed in november :/
Easy interview, look at the SDN interview thread, make sure to emphasis your interest in primary careOOS II
Crying and having a panic attack rn

Thank you for the advice! I'll definitely keep that in mindDef agree with this and may be good to have solid reasoning behind why you want to do primary care in your back pocket for rly any primary care focused school. Just know your app and the WHY behind everything you have done
Is this school a bad fit if I'm not interested in primary care? I have an upcoming interview as well and my interest is mainly in surgery and neurology, and while I'm open to switching specialties, I know I'm not interested in primary care. They seem to have a pretty decent and varied match list, so I assumed they are open to students who are interested in specialities other than primary care.Def agree with this and may be good to have solid reasoning behind why you want to do primary care in your back pocket for rly any primary care focused school.

Their original mission was primary care, but their match lists from the past few years are pretty strong for nearly every specialty. I’m pretty impressed by their matches in surgery and I think it reflects their commitment to their students and supporting their interestsIs this school a bad fit if I'm not interested in primary care?

also not interested in primary care, but i talked about how gaining a fundamental understanding in primary care and the role/importance of primary care will help me in my potential fieldIs this school a bad fit if I'm not interested in primary care?

Honestly no one knows, but match day is just around the corner so we will see what happens soon (first match with p/f S1)! I will say, Netter has to be doing something right regardless of S1...looking at ortho they have matched at UCSF, Baylor, Beaumont, Tennessee, UPenn, UConn...I know next to nothing about this, so I apologize if this is a dumb question: are past match lists still reliable indicators for future match chances now that Step 1 is P/F and school rank + research opportunities will be weighed more (both of which I hear are not Netter SOM's strong points)?
priority waitlist seems to be for those that were deferred decision.did they mention anything about a priority WL?
I'd say past match lists are even more important. The benefits of an alumni connection are huge. admissions is a risk averse process, nobody wants to hire a dud. strong alums can demonstrate the quality of a program and establish unofficial linkages. its nice to have one in the room when residencies are screening apps and deciding who to send interviews.I know next to nothing about this, so I apologize if this is a dumb question: are past match lists still reliable indicators for future match chances now that Step 1 is P/F and school rank + research opportunities will be weighed more (both of which I hear are not Netter SOM's strong points)?
Absolutely!Can I accept the priority waitlist when I have an acceptance from another school?
I was like 12/10 or something and I haven't heard back yet.Anyone interview in December and still waiting to hear back?
I’m curious about the same thing. From looking at last years threads, deferred decision didn’t exist. I think it’s new this year.anyone know what priority waitlist actually means? like how many are on it can you know your rank etc
it said priority in your email? I just got WL too 12/11 interview. OOS.Priority WL just now, interviewed 11/15 deferred last month.
Yeah when you’re deferred your options are priority WL or A and I got the former. Idk how it works for people that are placed on WL directly from interview.it said priority in your email? I just got WL too 12/11 interview. OOS.
Best of luck!!Yeah when you’re deferred your options are priority WL or A and I got the former. Idk how it works for people that are placed on WL directly from interview.
You too!Best of luck!!
Not yet from what I can tell. They've been doing decision waves just about every Wednesday and are up to sometime in mid-Jan at this point. I'd keep your fingers crossed for next Wednesday. I interviewed 1/22 and am hoping for next Wednesday or the following.Do you think it’s a bad sign if we interviewed mid-january (1/17) and haven’t heard anything?
Priority WL today, same interview date. Also deferred in January.Priority WL just now, interviewed 11/15 deferred last month.
