***Official Thread for BSMD Applicants 2018***


[QUOTE=""]
According to who? Usnews? Whose rankings methodologies are controversial and criticized even by institutions highly rated by them?

Thought this was a good article which I read a while ago and sharing now.

@collegebound4884 I got mine at around 12:30!

Got into tcnj/njms
Finally after so many rejections
Unbelievable and unpredictable
Thank you everyone!

@rdk2018 Hey, when did you get the email?

At 137

My son also got acceptance email at 1.44PM from for TCNJ/NJMS… this was his last chance after getting rejected from everywhere else.

Is there a Facebook group for TCNJ/NJMS yet?

Got TCNJ

Hard part now is deciding NJIT or TCNJ!!!

When did you get your email?

Hi all, congrats on your selections to BS/MD programs. Can you please help us in narrowing down the selection?

  • penn state / Jeff PMM , no aid or scholarship
  • OU , national merit finalist package
  • union / Albany , Half tution covered from union . Still waiting on decision though.

Thank you alll so much .

@BSMDAD @NoviceDad I am someone who recently went through the match process so I feel like I have some level of knowledge on this topic. Again, it’s definitely more than possible to obtain top residencies from a mid-tier/lower tier school, but I guarantee you that the difference in the match lists between a school like NW and mid-tier/low-tier schools does not simply boil down to step scores. If you choose not to believe me that’s fine, but I’m trying to bring some data to the table as someone who recently went through the process as opposed to anecdotes about a few people who might have beaten the odds.

It does not offer instate tuition to OOS BSMD students unfortunately. I guess it is going to be pretty expensive!

@CStudent13
Exactly 1:00

After much consideration, I have decided to enroll in HPME rather than PLME. We already put down the deposit. We got good financial aid from NW, Thank you everyone!

Didn’t get a call from NJIT yesterday and haven’t received an email from TCNJ yet… Safe to say I’ve been rejected? I’m sad to say this was my last shot.

@dblazer Can you comment on Florida Atlantic University’s medical school? Thank you!!

Applied only thru TCNJ and still hoping… I thought the interview went really well. Not sure if TCNJ is done sending all emails…

Did anyone get a rejection email from TCNJ?

@campan1 yeah in the same boat as you rn

I’m actually rather confused. I hope someone can clear it up. I applied through NJIT and TCNJ. After my interview with NJIT, they forwarded my application to NJMS and I had an interview there. However, after my interview with TCNJ, I got no word back from them at all. Not about whether they forwarded my app or not. I haven’t even heard back from them about the status of my undergraduate only application. Has anyone experienced anything similar? Thanks in advance for any answers!
