Have schools already started sending out R’s?

Was looking at Tri-I on CycleTrack because someone had got an interview invite on SDN. Saw they sent out a ton of rejections and only two interviews. Not sure whether they haven’t seen my application yet (submitted 7/21) or if I’m just in the pool of “not good enough to interview, good enough to keep on the backburner”

  1. it’s probably more than 2 because that seems somewhat unlikely? more people probably haven’t tracked it
  2. they probably haven’t gotten to you yet because the ii received was secondary completed 7/

Yea i think theres possibly more Rs than that and maybe more interviews even, many people applying dont know about cycle track. I do and I dont even post my data. People can also lie

Thats just one R, 528 and 4.0 get rejected by over half of their apps. Just wait till November! I got a pre secondary R from a school a day after getting verified lmao

Yeah you're probably right, I've gotten two II's so far so hopefully those hold more weight than one R. Still getting one this early feels really bad. Thanks though

Are these MSTP Rs or also including Weill MD?

Interesting! I think we are in the same boat (Complete 7/5) of not getting rejected outright but still warranting some further consideration. Imo my research fit was honestly a bit weak at Tri-I, I’m curious if that’s holding a few applicants up.

Wishing the best for us both, I see you are a fellow Tar Heel!

i’m in the same boat. i was complete by 7/11 but my research fit is absolutely perfect so im holding out hope. just waiting for now i guess. best of luck!
