Would you please provide insight to me as well? I am preparing for some interviews, namely AMC since that is my top program. Thank you!

I also got an interview for Drexel. Do you have any details you can DM? Anything at all would be much appreciated.

I am including the list that I use as the five non-negotiables for approaching the decision of services (what I wish I knew before I considered that in my own BS/MD process):
#5 – BS/MD Exclusivity (their central focus is BS/MD students)
#4 – Intimate Familiarity with the BS/MD Process (truly know the BS/MD experience)
#3 – Driven by Current BS/MD Admits (adapted through recent cycle successful admits)
#2 – Designed by Strong Scaffolding, Yet Flexible to the Individual Student (structured around the individual student, not one-size-fits-all)
#1 – Listens First, Speaks Last (seeks to understand your student’s needs above all)
I hope this gives some clarity to parents and students overwhelmed by this decision. There are very few services out there that have these qualities, so be sure to look closely!

Those who received Hofstra invites- when did you take the Casper exam?
If you did not receive Hofstra invite today it means your BS/MD application has been rejected?

I got waitlisted for interview at UMKC. Honestly I’ve gotten 3 interviews and 2 waitlists with a 1480 superscore and 2 Bs on my transcript, all while being an ORM. I really do think it was my essays that did grant me some interviews, which is amazing.

Sometimes ORMs get lucky if they have rare situations which allow excellent essays

Being able to write well is an art. Having read a lot of essays from med school applicants and how badly people write to convey something they did very well but write very badly about, I can completely understand.
