Applications were submitted to the selection committee at the end of each month and it takes 4-6 weeks for final decision. Its almost six weeks in my case and I first thought I would be rejected because of the late reply. Nothing much about this program in forums and blogs and as an applicant, I know how anxious and puzzled we are when applying and waiting. I'm hoping these tips help. I'm an IMG and have been practicing for some time overseas. A few publications. I was told GRE quantitative result is very determinating, otherwise your CV must show good maths records. Second, it's better to well identify your research area and if possible, contact some faculty members or physicians who share the same interest as yours. Remember Stanford or any world class institutions are here to teach and bring up students with motivation and potential to succeed. Good luck to everyone.

How competitive are admissions to these top-10 English terminal MA programs anyway? Please post to the wall if you know. Do most people just not bother to apply because there's no funding?
