I was more concerned with how it translates into medical practice, like the question asked.

HMO stands for Health Maintenance Organization that were originally set up to provide preventative type of health services (i.e. early screening, yearly physical exams, etc.) Kaiser is a type of HMO for it comprises all types of health care practitioners all in one building for ease of treatment, coordination of care, etc. Personally I am interested in working in that type of environment that fosters team work and communication between providers to administer the best and most appropriate care possible.

Thanks Dr. Curitas, well said. Where were you when I was filling out my secondaries?!!!

My pleasure, although too late. I figured you might already have found the answer but I could still add my 2 cents. Now, you know how to handle it for the interview!
Best of luck.
 
Regarding the secondary application question, how many words/characters did you use? Is there a limit? Thanks for sharing your info.
 
Dr. Curitas,
There is no word limit so you can write however much you want. I wrote a page and a half. I think you should try to be concise. Hope this helps.

Has Meharry sent out any acceptances to you guys who already interviewed?
 
No acceptance, decline, or wait list yet. Estimate is another week and some days perhaps...

yikes! UGH!! how did u find out about the delay? I have been anxiously awaiting an email!:xf::xf::xf:
 
Just got the conformation e-mail, now I have to wait 6 more weeks! My MCAT score was pretty low, but I have a year of overseas volunteer work and very good post-bac grades.... God willing I'll get an interview!

I hope you get it too~ ;-)
 
Hey so can anyone who has had an interview shed some light on the interview day. I also was wondering about the hotel they suggest we stay at. It seems a bit away from the college and I wondered if we are suppose to take a cab or if there is some kinda shuttle? Just trying to figure things out.

The hotel that they suggest to you provides all the shuttle service from/to the school and airport.
 
I received my complete email on October 20th...still have not heard anything yet :-/ . My mcat score isn't the best but I'm hoping they show me some love!

meeeee toooo. It's really starting to feel like my life is on hold. I really hope we hear back soon. :scared:
 
Still waiting for an interview invite :xf::xf: How fast does Meharry go about rejecting people? Are they one of those schools who wait until the last possible minute to let a sista know? I'm just really impatient and I NEED to know sooner than later, lol.

Brittany, I think Meharry actually sends out invites quick. That's what it felt like to me when I got mine, it was the first school I heard back from. Your situation might be different if you applied late (assuming they have a much higher volume of applicants now).

Keep the faith :) You'll hear back soon

I'm on a boat! (on a boat!) On a boat! Hee. :D (Aka, nice to be on the October completion date boat with everyone)

Meharry did say to allow up to 6 weeks for feedback, so worst case scenario, we should hear back early December...

Hi ya all,

I am new to this forum but I hope this can help. to all of you that were completed in Oct, just be patient you will be receiving an invite after a month. I was completed on 09/19 and received an invite on 10/20 for 12/05. I checked the turnover time from last year's applicants and on average it is 4 wks. Hope this helps. Good luck to us all.
 
Anyone knows how many students Meharry interviews per invite day?
 
Anyone that had 10 am interview. What time where you done? I am trying to book my flight and I don't wanna miss my return flight.

For the am interviews, I think the day ended at like 1pm. You do a survey after lunch, then you are free to go. It's prob ~ 20minute trip to the airport.
 
meeeee toooo. It's really starting to feel like my life is on hold. I really hope we hear back soon. :scared:

Yes!! Hopefully we will know by MONDAY!!! I'm pretty sure they told us we would know in three weeks and that will be three weeks from the interview!! :xf:

We finished sometime around 2:30pm, but I would say just to be in the safe side plan to be done around 3
