I've always heard that the MSTP cycle largely follows the same timeline as the MD cycle! I know it's easier said than done, but try not to stress too much unless we get to the end of November and you haven't heard anything, there's still a bunch of IIs that'll be sent.

I hope so! Thanks for your encouraging words; keeping my fingers crossed. I'm sorry about your R too. Although congrats on your interviews and good luck!

Ah no worries, just means I have one less school to think about haha. Best of luck to you too! I'm sure you'll get some good news soon :)

I submitted in mid aug. Have they rejected from mid aug or have they not looked at my app yet (trying to see if i survived the R wave or just havent been reviewed yet) for MD?

It seems to have been for late-July/early-August with some mid-August.

i might have survived it then lets goo

Friday night R wave is diabolical work, F in the chat for all victims. I submitted midSeptember so I know my time is coming soon.

Submitted late July… survived both R waves so far. Is this a good sign?

Definitely a better sign than getting an R! At least on the MSTP side, though, it didn't mean much. MSTP applicants have been getting rejected for a while, many of whom submitted well after me. I'd survived a bunch of those R waves, but finally got rejected yesterday. I'd say be happy you're still in the running, but also just kinda accept that the default outcome at a place like Stanford in particular is being rejected.

Me too. Early July submission still standing but no interview. Hope they get to us soon!
