interview

I was just wondering if interview chances increase for an applicant that stated or checked that they are interested in MS/DMD or DMD/Ph.D.? I am slightly more interested in the MS route, however, my first interview is with a school who's application just asked about interest in dual programs and...

So I had a relatively smooth interview, and even got a nice conversation going at some point. At the end of the interview I was asked “Do you have any questions for us?” to which I replied “I would like to get each of your opinions on what the strongest aspect of this school is.” I immediately...

Hi! I just got invited to SCO for an interview. I have read about some schools such as PCO giving invites to anyone that applies to the school. Does SCO also give out interviews to everyone who applies? Thanks!

Hello any Pre-Med students, current and future medical school Applicants, (This is my first post so don't take it too hard on me ) I took a big risk this application cycle and applied anyway to MD and DO schools that I think I have at least 5% chance of getting in. I am originally from Haiti...

I am interviewing on 11/9-10, and booked a room on 11/9 at Wyndham Garden Norfolk Downtown with 2 double beds. I am looking for someone who is interested in sharing the room and cost. Parking is $10.

I just submitted my secondary application to FSU about a week ago. I'm wondering if that's too late in the application cycle to receive a regular admission interview? I have decent MCAT and GPA around their average and a lot of research/volunteering/shadowing experience.

This may be helpful to current/future applicants. Please take the time to fill out regardless of the number of interview invites that you have. If I get sufficient number of responses, I will keep making these every few weeks. Thanks!

Hi All- Instead of stressing about interviews to come, I thought I would offer some laughs to the community about the comedy of errors that my interviews have been so far. Nothing drastic that would leave me in tears, but funny enough that I have to stifle my laughter pretty strictly. And this...

Hello dear friends ! I recently applied to NSU IDP DMD program, please if any one has idea about the following share your inputs 1- the process of invitations and bench test (what exactly they ask in the bench test) and what to do regarding the case presentation ? what to read from ? 2- what...

U Maryland - Accepted Penn State - Awaiting decision Va tech - II WVU - II NYMC - II At this point, my reasons to continue interviewing is: 1) Financial/scholarship offers (but that’s in Spring) 2) Higher ranked schools 3) Curriculum & atmosphere (would I be happy living and learning here?)...

Advice needed - I got accepted into WesternU COMP NW, and I have interviews set up at LECOM-Bradenton, PNWU, and Burrell. Should I cancel any of the other interviews? Residency placement is important to me, and I hope to get into the school with placements in top tier residency programs. Can...

I’ve luckily had multiple interviews so far, but my latest one seemed really short ~30 mins each. I guess this school scheduled it that way but my first interviewer didn’t seem too thrilled to interview me (interviewer sat in chair and didn’t come get me unlike all the other interviewers who...

Hi, I was looking for any information regarding Burrell interview, what its like, what questions they ask, type of interview, etc. I've searched the internet and the forums and all I've really been able to find are just some people saying how laid back it was and how nice the faculty are. I know...

I was just informed that I got an interview with Belmont on November 10th!! I'm very excited because this is my top choice for OT school!! I was wondering if anyone had any tips? I also know we have to do a writing sample.. I have no idea what to expect for that. Anything will help! Thanks!

I am from Arkansas so I know getting into state schools is harder because they only have a specific spots for Arkansas residents but I am getting alittle nervous because I have not heard back from 2/3(UMKC and Texas A&M Dallas) of the schools I applied to. I am a student athlete and have 150+...

Hi all! I didn't see an interview trade/swap thread for this year and am currently in desperate need of one so I thought it'd be helpful to get this started. Also: Just to keep things clean, maybe it would be a good idea to edit/delete posts as your requests get resolved? I'm new to SDN :D

Hey, I recently got accepted into D'Youville College of Pharmacy for August 2018, anyone have interviews or have been accepted already??

How do adcoms perceive an interviewee that forgets to unbutton his/her jacket when sitting down and/or hasn't cut the stitch holding jacket tails together, or misses any other formality? Don't care? Red flag?

Hello everyone, So I am very conflicted in the application process right now. I went through two rejections already (one school does not accept classes passed graduation, so my undergraduate GPA is low, and another school rejected me after an interview), and I feel a bit overwhelmed with the...

Hi, would it be effective to write a thank you email/letter to the medical school after an MMI interview or even a traditional interview? If so, to who?

Not finishing my thought because time ran out. Is this bad??

This may be helpful to current/future applicants. Please take the time to fill out regardless of the number of interview invites that you have. If I get sufficient number of responses, I will keep making these every few weeks. Thanks!

HI. I just interviews at ucsf and now my status and AADSAS application changed from”invited for interview” to “received/under review”. Is this normal/happened to everyone who interviewed? Thank you

Hi everyone!!! I haven’t seen any threads for this cycle for applying and wanted to see if anyone has gotten any interviews?? I got an email for an invitation and I chose the November 3 day. Anyone have any advice for preparation? Or know what the day is like?

Are December/January interviews considered late? I’m asking b/c I haven’t heard back from 20 schools and I just received an II for December. Have you heard of people being outright accepted after a December/January interview? I guess it wouldn’t be ideal if the school is rolling. My next...

Ironically, the dean of a school that I'm interviewing for next week is coming to my university to speak with the pre dental students and is doing a couple 1 on 1 interviews with a couple students. I was going to use this to put a face to my name since he is likely to interview me again at his...

I can think of several general reasons someone might get turned down after an interview. I'm sure this varies a ton from school to school, but very broadly, how does the breakdown go? 1. People who get rejected because of things they did/said wrong on interview day. Subcategories here would be...

Are wedges appropriate for interviews? (Especially with a pencil skirt)

Have my first hospitalist job interview at a location I want to be at. They sent me the itinerary - it's a 3 hour day, meeting many different people. What should I expect from the below titles? What questions should I be asking to each person? Will they be doing most of the talking? Are medical...

So I have an interview at AZCOM on Oct 16th. I have already booked my non-refundable plane ticket to Phoenix. I'm getting a bit tight with money though, and I'm trying to decide if I should still go to the interview (I haven't booked the hotel or rental car, and combined with food this will be...

Hey guys, Just trying to grasp a better understanding of the interview process. I applied to 14 schools, and have heard back from 3, all of which are interviews. I keep seeing people say that the next batch of interviews are sent out after December 1. Does that mean rejection notices would as...

Had an interview a couple weeks ago for a grad intern position with CVS. I felt like it went great, but haven’t heard anything back yet or received any offer. How long does it typically take to receive offers? Is it closer to when the internship would end, March 31, 2018?

Hey all! Last week I had my first interview. I practiced a lot for it and went through questions posted on different forums, as well as the ones posted underneath the school here on SDN. I ended up doing pretty awful still and ever since then I’ve been pretty down about how that turned out...

I have an interview tomorrow and I am really nervous. Does anyone have any tips or advice about the type of interview questions they could potentially ask me that might come off difficult or catch me off guard? I would really want to know just sample interview questions. Thank you!

Title explains it. I'll start: Wayne State I also believe UCLA does pre-interview holds on the portal without emailing you, but I only know this from someone else's application from 2 cycles ago.

Imagine yourself standing on a tennis court: Picture yourself tossing the ball into the air and then smashed an ace serve right past your opponent. Then, walk into your interview and nail that too. Why should you think about tennis when you could be spending your last pre-interview moments...
