I actually thought it was quite thorough. They watched you all day, not just during the one on one interview. I had people in my group cursing and messing around. Don't think they don't notice that stuff!
I feel that I had ample opportunity to express my interests and passions during my interview, but every interview is different. In fact all they asked about were those things.
My interview was quite personal. They asked very intense questions but they are obviously a reflection of your file. I had other interviews that weren't personal at all.
Nope. What'd they say
Basically, they want my fall grades, because I'm currently in physics I. So, the wait continues!
Congrats. Great schoolAccepted!
YAY!!!! Congrats!!!Interviewed 10/27
Accepted 11/12
Your stats are fine, but it's late in the cycle. If you don't make it this year, definitely reapply next cycle.
Around November in your second year, there will be a "Site Selection Day" that will determine where you will do clinical rotations your entire third year of medical school. You will have a base hospital to which you are assigned, though some of your rotations will be in other clinics or practices. As each hospital system can only take so many students, the sites can go to lottery if there is overflow. If you need to know the exact method it's determined, PM me. Fourth year you can fulfill your graduation requirements however you wish (a lot of students rotate in their home states, or wherever they are auditioning to match for residency).
All sites are put poster-board style across the room with a number 1-?? representing however many students the site can handle. Larger sites can handle 18 or so, smaller may only take 4. If Site A has 6 spots, but 8 students write their names there (you can only write your name once per round), then all 8 names go into a hat, and the first 6 names drawn get the site, while the remaining 2 students wait until all other sites have undergone the same process. Those who didn't get their first choice compete for remaining sites, as not all sites "overfill" on the first round.
The majority are in WV. There's one in Maryland, and a few in Ohio and Kentucky. I'd say almost 90% are in WV, so plan on being there for third year. I can't give you numbers, and the number of spots at each site can change from year to year.
I did not get an e-mail, but checked my portal and there it said "Accept Applicant" Then the next day, the letter came!
yeah I found out it through the portal as well. No email though and I am still waiting for the letter.
It was about a week for me. In state (not sure of that matters).
Thanks!! I hope it comes soon.
I am OOS, and my portal changed to accepted on Tuesday and the official letter came on Thursday. Fairly quick turnaround time!
