yes i was prompted to fax it back. I finally tracked it down and sent it today.thanks and let me know!
i'm not sure i understood what you meant by that. But I believe you asked if they needed to be below 250 words and yes that is correct.Hey,
I got this secondary pretty late...but waited to fill it out due to my MCAT...
But I have a question...are all the essays should be below 250 words ...even the optional essay???
you should check the school specific interview thread feeback forum for this...there are at least 60 posts last time i checkedAnyone who has been interviewed... care to share some of their interview questions/experiences?

Where is that?...I thought this was the mercer interview thread feedback forum.
Scroll to the top of this page (all of the SDN pages) and you'll see "Interview Feedback" click it then "All Schools," then go to MercerWhere is that?...I thought this was the mercer interview thread feedback forum.
Ive been complete since mid August and have not heard anything. Does Mercer take a long time or have I been passed over? If I call and ask the status of my application, will they tell me if I have been rejected?
😕
Who knows. I submitted my application on 10/4, mailed my residency verification on 10/6, and received an interview invite yesterday morning.

Overhauser - can you post your stats, please? just curious to see what range of individuals theyre interviewing at this point.
thanks! and congrats on the interview!
Accepted regular decision! 🙂

Congratulations!!! I bet that is an awesome feeling. Do you mind posting your stats? I have not heard a word from Mercer, thinking about writing a LOI. I know they accepted 50 EDP though so chances this year for regular are slim.
Can someone tell me what sort of questions they asked at the interview? I got some really weird questions and want to know if that is the norm!
What kind of questions were you asked? Macon or Savannah campus? I interviewed a few weeks ago and was accepted. When did you interview?

BigBoosting Did you interview at Macon or Savannah? What date?
Savannah on Oct. 19. My husband interviewed Oct. 14 in Savannah and was also accepted.
Awesome, congrats to both you and your husband that is really cool!!! I interview on the 12th at Macon campus. Haven't heard anything yet. It is really bothering me. Maybe after next committee meeting I will hear.
Hey Bigboosting! I interviewed in Savannah too! Who was your interviewer?

I interviewed in Savannah with Dr. Greenberg and another non-committee member.. but I forgot his name..

Man... I submitted my app end of Aug and have yet to hear anything. I called today and talked to Mrs. Coleman and she gave me about zero info. about my file. I feel like my stats are not too bad and Im committed to underserved areas. I would kill for an opportunity to interview at Mercer and have no idea whats going on. 🙁

Thanks 🙂 I hope you do hear soon. Maybe they're putting you in the next meeting or waiting on Fall grades or something.

I had Dr. Yang and a 4th year medical student. Ditto for husband's interviewers.

Maybe try writing a letter of interest?
Wasn't the committee meeting for this month supposed to be yesterday? Has anybody heard anything?

Come on guys - they said a day or two before we'd hear back 😀.
Still no call. 🙁 I guess I will have to wait until next month. Has anybody else gotten a call?
Also, does anybody know if they will be having an admissions committee meeting in December since it's near Christmas?

Congrats!!! You didn't get a call as well? I haven't heard of anyone getting accepted in a while, I was getting worried that mine was a mistake

Did you get a phone call before this or just get a letter in the mail?
I never got a phone call - just the letter.
And I haven't made a decision yet concerning campus preference. I interviewed Savannah, so I'm trying to gather some information about the Macon campus.

Congrats! You can always tour the Macon campus before you choose and probably even sit on a class, if you are able to make the trip. They're very good about that sort of thing.

I interviewed the 18, just one day before the last committee meeting! 🙁
Now the next one is Dec 15.
My interview went very well! The committee member interviewer basically told me he was going to advocate for me.
Is there anything I can do to make them remember me since Dec. 15 is so far away? I already sent them a Thank you letter.

I finally was invited for an interview at the Savannah campus!!!!🙂🙂 I am so excited!!! I am a reapplicant that literally received the last possible interview spot 2 years ago and was rejected. This time will be completely different!!!
