Has anyone been scheduled for an interview here yet? I was told that pretty much everyone receiving a secondary would get an interview, unless something strange showed up in the secondary....I'm starting to get nervous
. But I guess it's better than the alternative.
I'm in-state.
Not yet. I called the residency office and they sounded very confused about the whole thing. They said we needed a "student ID number" before filling for residency, so I assume we wait to see if we are admitted, then we file those forms. Makes sense that they don't want to bother with processing the applications when they aren't even sure the students will be admitted.
I submitted my secondary in early September, got my interview invite 9/23, and am interviewing 10/6 (it's merely an assigned date, you don't get to choose).
It's very low-key. You arrive, stay in a room with the other interviewees (there were 4 total on my day), and get an into from Beth Ann or one of the other admissions staff. Then you go on a hospital tour with two of the medical students. You can talk to them about anything as they don't report to the admissions office and have no say in the final decisions. Next, you're all herded back to the waiting area and you interview 1x1 in 30 minute increments with two admissions committee members at the same time. They were really nice and take a lot of notes! Hope this helps and good luck!
