Uhmmm no i do not think it shows that you are not interested by requesting to reschedule... That sounds like a pre-med delusion. People have other interviews already scheduled and what not and sometimes can not make the date you offered. I doubt a school would hold some sort of vengence against you because you can't make the date. From my experience (rescheduled two interviews), they have been very accommodating.
But in your situation -- Med School II >>>>>>>>>>> Scribe job. Call of Work
Dude, this is your MED SCHOOL INTERVIEW. Presumably at least part of the reason you took the scribe job was to help you get into med school. Tell your boss "bye" and go get that acceptance!!!
Yeah I'm gonna go ahead and keep the interview and try to get my boss to take me off the shift. I guess I'll quit if I have to lol. But just hypothetical, do things like this really come up when adcom are discussing whether to accept an applicant? Like do they say oh good MCAT, good interviewer, but she rescheduled the interview?
I received an II yesterday, and scheduled myself for an interview on the 1st of Nov. because my work schedule for October was out by then and I was not working on the 31st. However, my boss emails me today and says that they're changing around some of the schedule because of some people quitting (high turnover scribe job), and I will be working on the 31st now. It's a shift that ends at 10 pm, so there's no way I can catch a flight and make it to my OOS interview. Would it look badly on my part if I contacted the school and asked to reschedule? Especially since it's only been a day since I picked the date in the first place. I'm trying to trade the shift but I don't think I'll get any takers because of Halloween. Sorry if this question is too neurotic, this is a dream school and I don't want to do anything that will jeopardize my chances haha
