Is anyone here interviewing on Feb 20th? I wanted to ask what you were doing to prepare for the interview? Also, what is the best cheap place to stay at?

How did you find a med student? I'm trying to find a student host but I had no luck
Got a call from a 612 number and missed it, googled it to find it was the U of M med school system.
I'm afraid to call back. I have such a f*ed up emotional relationship with this school right now.
They only call to accept you, right? Because if they call to waitlist, I am going to be so mad.
Unless they are calling because there's a problem with my application, but given that I interviewed in mid-December, I would have known by now if there was a problem.

I interviewed on 12/15.
I interviewed in mid-December as well and haven't heard anything yet either. I wouldn't be worried - it seems that they are still processing the November and earlier December interviewees. All that said, this process certainly demands a lot of patience!!Did Dean White leave a voicemail? I interviewed in mid December but didn't receive a missed call or a voicemail. I was also in a room with no signal the whole day yesterday. So I am wondering if I received a call but it didn't show up on my phone. Or probably I was waitlisted or rejected

Are the lectures at the twin cities audio or video recorded or both? Or the audio recorded and shown with the presentation slides? Or any type of the lectures available online?
where my duluth people at?
Dittowhat's up?
1. Definitely available online. Sounds like on an avg. day ~ 1/2 students actually attend lecture. ~ 3/4 if it's a guest lecturer. Can be streamed real time, and they're recorded and accessible later too.
2. I believe it's audio with presentation materials (slides). I think I remember that ad-hoc chalk talk parts of the lectures might leave you SOL, but those are pretty infrequent.
Hope that helps!

I interviewed at TC campus last week and can give a quick summary of the day. First of all, my interview group was very small which was nice because it made everything more personal. There were two interviews, one with a faculty member in the morning and another with a med student in the afternoon. The faculty member interview is open file save the stats. Mine had questions prepared beforehand and tailored to my app and essays. So, make sure to know your AMCAS and essays well. It was very laid back and enjoyable overall. The length of my interview approached one hour. Don't know if that is normal or not. I didn't get any ethical questions but one of the other interviewees said that they did.
The second interview with the med student has no bearing on your admission. The student told me that at the beginning of the interview. So, I don't know what the purpose of the med student interview is other than for you as an applicant to ask any further questions you might have about the school. Because the interview had no admissions implications it was once again very relaxing. This interview was shorter and closer to 30 minutes in length.
Overall, the entire day was enjoyable and I was very impressed by the U. All the students that I met seemed friendly and happy to be there which was a positive sign.
So... Nobody heard anything throughout this past week?
I got the admissions call on 2/7, but so far no piece of mail that would allow me to officially accept the offer. Should I be worried?
just got a post interview rejection after being wait listed.
OOS so i guess i wasn't too surprised. kinda really bummed about this one, but i do have one acceptance already so i guess i shouldn't complain too much

When did you interview? and can you share some stats? I'm OOS and I interviewed recently.
Can anyone chime in on what the internal environment at the U is doing to send all these high level staffers packing. I heard some grumblings about the Med School from an SDNer on the Iowa site saying a high ranking professor had recently left the U for Iowa. Now Dean White has left from what brob0045 states. I'm happy I got in to Carver especially if they are leaking good teaching talent from the U, but anyone know what is going on to cause these most recent high level defections/departures?
