CONGRATS! By chance, can you share when you received the " preliminary application review complete" email, and then when did you receive your II? would be super insightful! Thanks.

What was the area code of the number that called you from Hackensack to let you know of your acceptance? I got my interview around the same time you did and am waiting to hear back. I got two calls marked as spam from a (973) number that didn't leave a voicemail but I'm paranoid it was them

normally how long after they send an interview invite do they call you to schedule a time?

I waited around 2-3 weeks before they called me.. I think it depends on how many interviewers they have available; I was interviewed by someone within the HM health network and not necessarily affiliated with the med school
