May god bless me with acceptance here!

anyone interview recently?? How was it? nervous for mine

I interviewed last month and it was a really nice experience! The interviewers were excited to talk and knew a lot about my application. It was semi-structured but still felt like a simple conversation. Try your best to relax and just share your most meaningful experiences and how it aligns with what you already know about Icahn. Honestly going in with the mindset that I can enjoy talking with people passionate about medicine and this school helped lower my nerves. You've got this!

How much does a letter of interest weigh here if at all?

they made it clear during interview day that they love it post-interview but not sure about pre

Rejecting me on Thanksgiving?!?!?!

Oof, did y'all get it at the same time? Randomly logged on and just saw the huge wave, so I've been feverishly refreshing my app portal and email...

sinai is not real, logging onto your computer to work on thanksgiving just to send rejects on thanksgiving

did people who got interviews send update letters/LOIs?

Does anyone know if they are done sending interviews yet?

are rthe people liking this saying you did send them?

I keep dodging all the R waves but haven't heard anything yet. Is there still a chance I get the II? 🥹

Same, one of my LOR writers has a background from Sinai too...

same

They encourage everyone who interviewed to express their ongoing interest

Any ideas about when post II decisions will come out??

First round of decisions def come out next week or week after. Don't send me these Icahn Insights on the month of decisions. I do not care about your school unless you let me in. ugh

Do we think first wave of As this week potentially?

yeah

honestly no. I predict the week after

countdown to the 23rd...

If you submitted a letter of interest or update letter, did you upload to the portal or email it to admissions?

portal

thank you!

Any reason? Or just a gut feeling

Next week based on when they released decisions last year. But who knows, they may switch it up

anyone know what time they might release decisions tomorrow?

Ima be fr chief its prob gonna be next week Friday

wahhh

lol real

If they do usually late evening EST (5-9 pm)

Previous dates for Jan wave from SDN:

1/24/25 Friday

1/19/24 Friday

1/20/23 Friday

1/14/22 Friday

1/22/21 Friday

1/17/20 Friday

1/18/19 Friday

This is really interesting because I've been seriously thinking there's no way it's tomorrow and that it's most likely next Friday. But given that next Friday is 1/23, they're actually fairly equally toward the edge of that range:

1/14/22 Friday

1/16/26 Friday <--

1/17/20 Friday

1/18/19 Friday

1/19/24 Friday

1/20/23 Friday

1/22/21 Friday

1/23/26 Friday <--

1/24/25 Friday


Lol this is the closest I get to sports betting

If only we had polls and could actually bet

Can we get med school decision dates on polymarket or smt

Parlaying the +350 decisions release today with a +5000 acceptance

Icahn waitlist moneyline looking pretty good for me

Where is your sword?

Don't need it (Insert sick music)

I think decisions will come out today. They consistently come out the 3rd Friday of January, with the exception of 2021 (COVID), when decisions came out on the 4th Friday. My gambler bet is that decisions come out 7:30 pm EST 1/16/2026.

Why not next Friday?

Today is the 3rd Friday of January

nah my bet's on next friday, 1st friday of jan this month was basically a holiday

Wasn’t last year the 4th Friday 1/24 ?

Thors clearly never applied to med school or else he would definitely have enemies

My gut screams next Friday, my heart screams today, my brain is empty

Yeah, it was. Historically, it's always been anywhere from the 2nd to the 4th Friday in January. We are on the third, so I think it's a 50/50 between today and a week from today.

Seems like it’s not today

I gave admissions office a call and they didn't give any definitive detail. They did however say they were very busy and trying to meet a deadline—may be for flexmed or another program though.

you asked when we could expect to hear back?
