I started the TMDAS app for my son, thinking that he may be interested UT Southwestern. He made it very clear that he doesn’t want to apply there. Therefore, I didn’t dig too far on that question. I did read on SDN from more than one poster that they didn’t list all of their AMCAS schools on TMDAS, but didn’t have any issues anyways.</p>
<p>kal,
“The Wolverines don’t like the Buckeyes. It is a well known fact in the college football world”
-Yes, correct. I was just hoping that it is college and Med. School is not at that level. D. did not even apply to U of M UG, she would love to atten there, but we knew she woudl not get any Merit $$. And she did not go to OSU. But, yes we are OH, and she had very good choices, so not much dissapointment here, just strange “un-proffessional” attitude towards an applicant. I do not know how to call it. As I said, a simple rejection would be much more respectful. Anyway, she is happy where she is now, and that is all the matter. I wonder if she would consider Ann Arbor for residency application. She loves the place. All will depend on her Step 1 score (few more days…)</p>
<p>I think many applicants end up with a school that just totally ignores them. Well. Except for taking their money. They all appear to find a way to do that. ;)</p>
<p>"Here’s looking at you, University of Chicago. "
-Not really. Chicago was one step ahead of Michigan in our case. They have sent rejection, they did not ignore completely. From what I heard, they usually send rejections, this might have changed over time.</p>
<p>Regarding the discussion about sharing where you’re applying: Rice asked that question on their UG applicstion. My son listed a number of peer schools, including his brother’s uni, to show he was interested in different parts of the country. My son got into a lot of schools, but didn’t get into Rice. And no, he didn’t go to his brother’s school.</p>
