Hey all! I got in to UCI this cycle by the skin of my teeth and am feeling some mad survivor guilt.
I paid like $70 for the magoosh gre study program and knocked the gre out of the park - 170v, 163q - so I'd totally recommend that if you can afford it and are concerned about the gre.
I got started on my essays really early because I'm kind of a slow writer and I wanted time lots and lots of editing. I'm happy to edit your personal statements if you pm me! 
The 2017 applicants channeled their nervous energy into generating a lot of data. Here is a great deal of it -

Hey, current UCI student checking in with some info on our interviews this year-
UCI will be conducting their interviews on Mondays in Feb, March and April, the first date being Feb 12th. Last year I received my invitation to interview 6 days before the first interview date, so I wouldn't expect to hear from UCI much before the week of Feb 5th.
The current students will be inviting you to join us for dinner the preceding Sunday night

Yeah I am totally still here because, I don't know exactly, this process is still really vivid in my mind and it's interesting to watch without the anxiety of actually going through it myself. And maybe I'll see some of you interviewing at UCI in the spring! I'm already looking forward to interviews and the bounty of free sandwiches they promise.
Anyway, I have things I like about UCI but without having attended another school, I don't know what is note worthy. I am 6 weeks or so into the first quarter and I feel like clinical work is already a major component of what I do; my classmates and I are already taking patient histories and pedigrees in clinic, and we're already presenting some of our cases along side faculty in weekly clinical case conferences. I love our program director. Our schedule is busy but flexible. I'm definitely here to answer any questions about UCI!

Hi all! I started discussion thread for next application cycle. I would also appreciate if folks who already got in a program join to give us some advice! Thanks  

Just accepted an offer to Rutgers. I called to check on my status and she said she was about to call me! I also declined Bay Path!

I got in to UCI off of the waitlist! Thank you so much everyone who declined your offers quickly and made the waitlists move. I am so so thrilled I almost cried on the phone with the director. 
By the way, she said that they haven't filled out their class yet, so there is still significant shuffling to be done. Don't despair I'd you're waitlist locked, it can happen!
I'm emailing Brandeis and BU to remove me from their waitlists right now.
Where my fellow Anteaters at?

Got a call from Rutgers, I moved to number 1 on that waitlist as well so HOPEFULLY I can get out of these #1 waitlist spots and get an acceptance!

Yes! I loved it so much too! I was really torn about moving across the country but there's really no reason I can't, so decided to embrace the experience and try something new! 
I really hope UCI works out for you.. it really is such a great program too- and Southern California is the best  

@Ultrapeaches I am going to call Boston and accept, so UCI will have another position. I will call them right after

I just accepted my offer at Mount Sinai! Best of luck to everyone today and tomorrow, I hope to meet some future classmates!

There is definitely still hope for people on waitlists! I got off two waitlists already and have to deny 3 offers today so shift WILL happen. Good luck!!!!!
