***Official Thread for 2016 BSMD applicants***

The parents at REMS were told they will make the decisions on Tuesday. Decisions come by snail mail after. So maybe sooner than 15th? Yes the website still says 15th. Had a great time and loved everything there! GL to all!

Case PPSP interviews scheduled for next month as well, 3/17 & 3/18.

I am very happy to share that I received RPI/AMC admission this morning.

CONGRATULATIONS!

I am pleased to tell you that you have been accepted into the Albany Medical College/Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute Accelerated Physician-Scientist Program.

Acceptance correspondence from Albany Medical College and Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute will be mailed to you.

We are looking forward to having you join the Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute and Albany Medical College communities.

Sincerely,

Congrats @HS2DirectMed
Just got the email from AMC (Union College) saying you are still under consideration. So no decision… still in the waiting game.

@HS2DirectMed Congrats!

@HS2DirectMed Congrats! would you mind PM your stats? Thanks and good luck with your decision!

still under consideration for union :confused:

@HS2DirectMed Congrats!

Received email from my school academic counselor that I am the Valedictorian of the Class of 2016. I appreciate any advice and pointers from the current and past years BSMD students and parents for the Valedictorian Speech. Please send me a PM.

Congrats @HS2DirectMed for RPI !!! Your service to this board has been phenomenal to post all data and stats for program you are inerviewing. Thanks for it. If I remember right, you appeared Interview at Albany for Union as well as RPI. Did you got any update for your Union? Did you got selected for both programs? Reject or on hold for Union?

@HS2DirectMed Congratulations for RPI/AMC. Sure, this is the first of so many you are going to get accepted. Having a firm offer helps to decide future actions for any pending schools.

I can connect you to one of friend’s D who was Valedictorian 4 years back (she is not BSMD student). Let me know.

Congrats @HS2DirectMed … Still under consideration for us. Not sure what is the likelihood of ultimately make the cut for everyone who is under consideration. @teenagecrime it is not a rejection so congrats for being under consideration !!!

Also under consideration for Union/AMC. The program director did say that a ton of people are put under consideration and a lot are accepted eventually, so we still have a big chance depending on our rankings.

Received Union acceptance.

Recieved Union acceptance :slight_smile:

Congrats @Toshka

@HS2DirectMed Congratulations!!! we are looking forward to hear more good news soon!! Please send us your stats.

Under consideration for Union/AMC.
@Toshka, could you share your stats?

@Toshka Congrats! would you mind PM your stats? Thanks and good luck with your decision!

March is the month of acceptance notifications. Good luck to all those who got interviews any where and waiting for the good news.

Just a suggestion. Rather than asking to PM stats from accepted students, let them if it is ok for them, post it in the forum. Already @texaspg has created the thread *** BS/MD Results For Class Of 2016***. Not only accepted students even who are not accepted and even those who did not get any interviews, any one who attempted BS/MD programs. That will help the future students. For this year students the game is over and knowing the stat is of no help.

Compare to many previous years, 2015 students did not post much in the results thread. Request every one in 2016 post your entry in that thread. That will benefit a lot for future students. The key is early preparation (9th and 10th summer on wards) and that is what unlocks all the talents students in to this competitive program. So please post by end of March or April once you know all your applied schools have communicated and you made the decision.
