You're not late, it's just that there are ridiculously early applying ppl, including me. Getting AMCAS done by June is early and secondaries by July and early August. After that, you're normal, and if you submit secondaries in september and beyond, you're lateI know! I feel like soooooooooooo many people already have multiple interviews. I wonder if submitting secondaries in early-mid August is considered late? I had to wait for my new MCAT score to be released before I added anymore schools to my primary. So that put me behind about a month. 🙁
Can any applicants from last year explain what the "team based learning exercise" is?
It's scheduled right before lunch on my interview day.
I thought there were many SDNers who got invite to Oakland. Check them out and PM them to see. I'm still waiting for the inviteAm I really going to be the only one representing SDN tomorrow?

The TBL session is just to give you an idea of what they are like -- don't stress about it at all! They don't judge you on your performance or anything... it's definitely just a way for you to get a taste of what going to school at OUWB would be like.
I'm also semi-concerned about this...hopefully they send out more information before hand, but I'm sure they're just assessing our ability to work in groups effectively.
Anyone else interviewing on 9/16 by chance? If so I'll see you there.
Good luck tomorrow! Maybe I'll run into you -- we're having our first AMWA meeting in the medical student lounge area. =)
AWESOME! I hope to see how awesome Oakland is! I'm at my hotel right now!

Ooo! I just realized that you also have an engineering background... we love our engineers here! 🙂
I'm going to be interviewing on 9/16. Super excited about it!!! really, the more I find out about this school, the more I like it. They are really doing everything right to start a top tier medical school!!!
See you there!

So my experience at ouwb was amazing! The faculty and staff are EXTREMELY nice they really made the trip worthwhile. OUWB is definitely an innovative and cutting edge school. Their facilities are top notch and everyone seems to take pride in their school and creating a a tight nit friendly culture.
OUWB is definitely at the top of my list after interacting with their staff and students. Beaumont is also an immensely valuable asset for this school. It is enormous and offers access to almost any specialty you want! Having access to basically the largest hospital in the country will definitely allow OUWB to become a reputable medical school not only on Michigan but in the country.
Best of luck to everyone applying, I can visualize myself at OUWB and hope to matriculated there next fall.
Pm me if you have further questions about the interview, but it was low stress and a lot of fun!

How long did it take you to find parking/get to the location from your parking spot? Every publication/email I've gotten from Oakland has a warning about parking difficulties and it's got me kind of nervous about finding a spot and being on time. I'm considering having my mom drop me off (pathetic, I know) if it's as bad as they seem to make it sound.
i was just at the interview on friday and everything azdesertdoc says is so right. The school exceeded every expectation i could ever have had and it is my number one choice. I cannot stop thinking about it - hoping for an acceptance a few months from now!!!
I want to interview here so bad. I've never even been within a 100 mile radius of Oakland, but the school looks awesome. I never knew it was the biggest hospital in the US
Beaumont is 21st largest.... 🙂

But never the less.... it's still awesomesauce.
Depends on what largest you mean...They described themselves as largest in terms of surgery and admissions
Congrats!!! When were you complete and what are your stats if you don't mind me prying.Interview Invite! OOS (NY)!
Nice! I agree, after learning more about it this school is moving more towards the top of my choice list for schools. I'm glad to hear that the TBL isn't used for assessment!
Are you flying out right after the interview day on Friday? I'm staying until Saturday because I couldn't find a flight that gave me enough flexibility on Friday.
See ya there!
