lanime Posted May 4, 2016 Share Posted May 4, 2016 Good luck to everyone!! Feel free to ask questions about the application and interview process. I know how tough the waiting can be, but it really goes by fast if you stay busy and enjoy the summer! Which you should definitely do, since next summer you may be in school ; ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jlumsden Posted May 10, 2016 Share Posted May 10, 2016 I'm finishing up my second year, and graduate in a few months. Glad to help with whatever questions I can. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JLM28 Posted May 17, 2016 Author Share Posted May 17, 2016 I'm finishing up my second year, and graduate in a few months. Glad to help with whatever questions I can. I was wondering if you would be able to give me an idea of what the didactic year looks like in terms of class hours/study groups/homework? Since you're willing to answer questions! Thank you, and congrats on your upcoming graduation! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
corpsman89 Posted May 17, 2016 Share Posted May 17, 2016 I'll be submitting in early June. I have decided to wait on spring grades (all As) and my GRE is on the 27th. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peanut3 Posted May 17, 2016 Share Posted May 17, 2016 @corpsman89 - I am doing the same! good luck to you! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
corpsman89 Posted May 18, 2016 Share Posted May 18, 2016 PaigeClark3- Good to hear someone is in the same boat. I get nervous when I hear people submitting in May, and am worried that June will be too late. But in the end, I think June is still fairly early. Good luck to you as well!

hfillman Posted May 18, 2016 Share Posted May 18, 2016 If you aren't submitting your application to MEDEX until June don't stress. They said in the re-application info session that the school doesn't even start looking at applications until June because they are busy helping the PA students that are just staring school. Good luck to everyone applying! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
corpsman89 Posted May 19, 2016 Share Posted May 19, 2016 That's what I was thinking. OHSU told me the same thing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Since you're willing to answer questions! Thank you, and congrats on your upcoming graduation! Prepare to have a very, very heavy workload. Class ran from about 8:30 to 4:00. Long lunch. Some evening time, but not often. I studied most waking hours. You can probably get away with 1-2 free nights/weekend days per week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peanut3 Posted May 21, 2016 Share Posted May 21, 2016 @jlumsden- Thank you for that insight. 1-2 free nights a week sounds nice. Right now I am working 50-60 hour weeks, going to school 3/4 times, volunteering, and have a family and some weeks I do not even get a night. I am very excited yet nervous for fall to be here soon!

jwood521 Posted May 23, 2016 Share Posted May 23, 2016 I'm also applying in June. I'm taking two of my pre-reqs this semester (Bio and Micro), so it really doesn't make sense to submit my app without those grades. Since there was a question earlier about the benefit of applying early, all applications will be reviewed in the order they were received. What that means is that on September 1st, if you're the first application on the pile, yours will be reviewed first. If you qualify for an interview, you will interview in the first session and can be accepted almost immediately after. At the info session I attended, the person giving the session said that it's possible to interview as early as mid-September and get an acceptance phone call the Monday after your interview. Yes, that means you can be accepted before a person waiting until the October 1st deadline has even submitted their application! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
diablo03 Posted May 31, 2016 Share Posted May 31, 2016 I applied here...so hopefully the early app will help. I was verified 5/24 and supplemental is complete. Good luck everyone Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
corpsman89 Posted June 14, 2016 Share Posted June 14, 2016 Dang, got an email stating that, because I am currently taking statistics, they will not review my app. until they receive the official transcripts from my school. :( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
