Hello all, So I was lucky enough to score an interview with the dental school at Dalhousie but I have absolutely no idea how to prepare. Would anybody who have been previously interviewed mind sharing their experience and some resources they found super helpful for the interview? All tips and...

Had an interview on one of the last days with Mercy. They said that we would hear back by end of February, but after reading some of the past Mercy posts, I know that was a lie. I have heard of students getting accepted in mid-march. However, anyone hear of anything yet?

Hey everyone, I posted in the typical Pain Fellowship interview thread as well, but wanted to create a new thread so it does not get buried throughout the season. I created a google spreadsheet that allows applicants to anonymously add their data to the table. I'm hoping it can help people get...

Any tips or advice about this will be greatly appreciated. I know letter of intent helps, but how to write such a strong letter. Also, will getting a new LOR help? - Like from your new research PI?

I just wrote a program to tell them I'm ranking them number 1, and the program director wrote back to say 'this made my day!' and that I should let him know if I had any questions up until I submitted my very final list. I'm trying to read this as a generally positive sign, and nothing else. It...

Hey guys! I am trying to prepare for my interview coming up and its my only one so I really want to kill it! I was just curious for anyone who was accepted on how you prepared for your interviews and any recommendations? Thanks again!

I feel so incredibly lucky to have received an II, but the two dates available are either in two days or the last week of February. I would be driving up for 6-7 hours, so travel arrangements are not an issue. I would prefer more time to mentally prepare, but I don't want to risk the rolling...

Hi all, I thought I'd start a thread in advance for those of us who either know that they will be in Phase II since they received no interviews in Phase I (hello, me), or who end up in Phase II after not getting matched in Phase I. Hopefully this can be a great source of support and...

With all the excitement of first round acceptances going out tomorrow, I'm feeling pretty discouraged because I have not gotten any interviews. I know I'm not the only one, so I figured we could use a little solidarity. Feel free to post your stats or not, it's a judgment-free zone! :highfive...

Hi, can anyone share information about UConn's AEGD interview? I know for 2019 intake, the interviews started on Oct 30, so some have for sure completed it by now. I can't seem to find any information about this interview ever since the program director changed from 2016. I would like to know...
