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.
 
Anyone who has been interviewed... care to share some of their interview questions/experiences?
you should check the school specific interview thread feeback forum for this...there are at least 60 posts last time i checked

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?

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.
 
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.

Hey Bigboosting! I interviewed in Savannah too! Who was your interviewer?

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

Maybe try writing a letter of interest?

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?
 
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!!! :xf::xf::xf:
Primary submitted 10/1 Secondary submitted 10/15 File Complete 11/2 Interview Invite 12/6 Interview scheduled for 1/6
 
I, too, got an interview invite today for 1/6 but in Macon. I was complete 11/30.
 
Last year, I think the last interview was given out as late as March...? I could be wrong. You could check the 2009-2010 thread to be sure.
 
I was interviewd on Nov.30th and received an acceptance call near 6ish today from my student interviewer. FYI. Good luck everyone!!🙂
