I kept having recurring nightmares last night about the interview. I dreamed that the interview was like clinical rotations and that it was over a few days. I was late to the interview/clinical rotation every single day, no matter how hard I tried to be on time. It was the most restless night of sleep I've had in a while.

Hey at least your sleeping *lays in bed each time anxious* it's like every night Santa might be coming with more interview invites, but I wake up every morning and notice he skipped my house 🙁.... Besides Quinnipiac, yay!

I just got my interview invite this morning 🙂 can anyone please tell me what the school is like? It's still brand new so I have concerns over whether I should opt for other more established schools

Hey CFCDoc, I'm an M2 at the school and I'll try to shed some light on our school. We have an integrated curriculum (organ system based), starting out with foundations of science (biochemistry, cell biology, immunology, genetics) and moving on to muscle/skeletal/skin, neuro, heart/lung/kidney, and finishing off with gastrointestinal/genitourinary for the 1st year. The material is presented with a mix of lecture, collaborative classroom (groups of 8 working on tasks, although in practice 4 pairs of 2), and seminar groups (groups of 10 and discussion based). All lectures are recorded barring technical difficulties although previously recorded lectures are often retrieved in those cases. The clinical curriculum is integrated with the basic sciences as well, so you will learn how to do the respective physical exams with the lecture content. Once a week starting about 2 months in, you will work with a primary care physician (peds, family med, internal med, or geriatrics) and get to practice the clinical skills you learned that week. I haven't started 2nd year yet, but based on the model PBL I've watched and the practice PBL's I've gone through, I think they will be much more fun for learning the material than anything in the 1st year. From what the M3's have told me, 2nd year has fewer lectures and plenty of PBL's.

My classmates, including myself, are pretty chill and since we are P/F with no ranking system (quintile ranks for 3rd year with honors/high pass/pass), there literally is no pressure for intra-class competition. I found this hard to believe when I interviewed at the school, but our class as well as the class before us are very collaborative. The M3's have shared many study materials and our class has GoogleDocs for study guides, review books, First Aid etc. that we share and intend to share with the incoming M1's. You'll catch students playing pickup sports outside when its nice all the time, hiking Sleeping Giant, and making the best of med school with what free time we have. No one really seems all that stressed (not that plenty of us aren't stressed). The faculty are also excellent and very conversational. If you are the kind of student to hang out with your professors, you'll definitely love our school. I'm not sure if they'll keep the open door policy, but last year you could just walk in to most of their offices and shoot the breeze. Most of them also don't do research or only spend a fraction of their time doing research, so they welcome a chit chat with students anytime.

A research building is being worked on near the parking lot, but I'm not sure when it will be open (couple years?), so there is no research going on at the school itself. However, many students have found research elsewhere. Our clinical rotations 3rd year are also at various sites with St. Vincent's at Bridgeport being the main site, which is about 45 min. from campus. Those are probably my two major complaints and I would take that into consideration when choosing the school you attend.

Overall, I really enjoyed 1st year here and I didn't find it as daunting as I expected. I know a few students that chose our school over established schools and most of them said they felt it was a better fit particularly because of the students. I guarantee you'll like your classmates. The curriculum is well taught and you'll find your niche in terms of what's best for learning the material. From the few Step I scores I've heard from the M3's, it looks like their class has done well. Both their class, as well as mine, scored higher than the national average on NBME questions (60% of our exam questions, although that will probably increase).

One other thing you should consider is that the school's reputation will be determined by the residency placements of the classes before you. That has yet to be determined, but I'm hopeful the current M3's will place well. Oh and the school's focus on primary care is mostly marketing and you'll find that you can pursue whatever you desire.

II!!!!!! First one ever!!!!!:banana::soexcited::banana: I had a cycle with no interviews last year so I'm very excited. For those of you still waiting, it is early don't stress out!

I would love to hear people's thoughts on best transportation and getting to know the area. Also it doesn't look like they have student hosting, but I think that would be a great way to get to know the school if anyone is willing. I have hosted extensively through couchsurfing if you need testimonials that I'm not an axe murder.

My house is willing to host interviewees. We're four dudes that live 10 min. away from campus and we all have cars so transportation shouldn't be a problem. I don't use my room and we have a pull-out bed as well. So far, it looks like we will host interviewees 8/31 and 9/24-9/28. Send me a PM if you are interested.

Thanks for the response. We really appreciate you taking the time. Also, how is the Interview day/vibe ? Any particular suggestions-tips for upcoming interviewees?
 
@MedSprinter how do you recommend getting to the New Haven area? In the easiest/cheapest way? I'm from around DC/Baltimore, so was just thinking about taking an Amtrak up there.

I appreciate you taking the time to reply with such detail. You've answered my question in the most ideal fashion so thank you very much 🙂 the cons you listed are not nearly enough to deter me from the positives you mentioned. I hope to see the students get the residencies they want because that is my one major concern, as I want to do surgery. Thanks again!

Megabus from DC to NYC and then either megabus or metro north to New Haven will probably be cheapest. Amtrak is most likely easier because it's more direct. Flying would be fastest, but could end up expensive

I would go with whatever anyone else suggests because I'm horrible with directions and I have nearly no experience with public transportation. I'm from Ohio and we drive everywhere and my aunt happens to live 30 min. away from the school, so I drove 10 hrs from Ohio to get to the interview.

Also, is there a reason you are trying to get to New Haven? To catch a shuttle perhaps? The school's in North Haven, just in case anyone has gotten the two confused.

Click to expand...

The interview day is probably the most chill one you will have, at least that was the impression my fellow interviewees gave as well as my classmates. I only had an interview to this school so I have nothing to compare to, but all the faculty I interacted with that day, including my interviewers, were very conversational and laid back.

The director of admissions and financial aid officer talked to us about the school and financial aid separately, which took maybe an hour or so. There were 10 interviewees when I was there and we were each asked a question to get to know us better, such as "what keeps you up at night?", or "what's something you are passionate about (besides medicine/helping others, etc.)?". Everyone gets asked the same question so it's only difficult if you are the 1st to respond. There was one interviewee who went 1st that said social networking is what kept them up at night, while the rest of us responded with some medical problem (childhood obesity, inequities in healthcare, discrimination, etc.) and they got in, so if you come up with a good response it shouldn't matter what it's about. The associate dean of admissions then talked to us about the school and asked us another question. We then split up for 2 interviews with faculty around 30-45 min. each. I do know the format is probably going to change a bit this year though because we've received emails about becoming student interviewers. After the interviews, everyone loosened up their ties and lounged in their chairs because it was much easier than we all expected. We did have lunch (Panera) with two M2's although I don't remember if it was before or after the interview. The ADCOM chair then asked us to expand upon our interests based on our apps and answered any questions we had (I was asked whether I enjoyed running or cycling more). Dr. Yeckel was the chair when I interviewed and he's one of my favorite professors. He'll probably tell ya'll the story of how he wound up in a Yale interview dressed in shorts. Finally, you will be tired and ready to leave, but will go on a tour of the school. ~5-6 hrs later you will have enjoyed your interview day!

In terms of tips and tricks, RELAX! You already have all the answers to the questions that they will ask. The interviews are conversational and I probably spent roughly half the time talking, while the interviewer talked the other half. Our school loves interviewees who ask questions and the interviewers will probably tell you that as well, so make sure you have some questions prepared, but also come up with questions during the interview. It shouldn't be difficult to come up with questions given that we are still a relatively new school. I found that my interviewer talked so much that I could always continue the conversation with a question myself. I'm not a talkative person whatsoever (fairly antisocial actually), but it felt natural to keep the conversation going during the interviews and we ran out of time for both of them (although both were late and one interviewer forgot about it, so the director of admissions gave the interview). I don't know for sure, but I believe the questions we were asked by the faculty outside of the interviews played an important role in our acceptances, so definitely don't give fluff answers. Finally, definitely be the most social and interested you have ever been throughout the interview day. This shouldn't be difficult as I found it a thoroughly enjoyable experience.
 
Busses are cheap but so much hassle. I would take the amtrak from Dc. It's much more direct.

I luckily have family in New Haven, so they've offered to let me stay with them and pick me up from the train station if I take an Amtrak, and then take me back and forth from the school the next morning 🙂
 
Also, is there really a Meditation/Yoga room in the building? I'm really excited to tour the facilities since it's a new school!

Yes, 3rd floor and it's pretty nice. If only the fitness center was better. :whistle:

The fitness center on the main campus is what you would expect of a fitness center. It's got plenty of machines and weights. There is a "fitness center" on the med school campus affectionately dubbed the Hamster Cage because it's right next to the cafeteria and everybody can watch you work out through the glass walls. It has two rowing machines, two stair climbers, two bikes, and a full set of weights up to 65 lbs. Oh yeah, it has NO TREADMILLS. I suppose it's better than having nothing on campus like we did for half the year.

Thank you so much, for giving such a good explanation and for the your input. I really appreciate the time and effort. I get the "vibe" that it should be a "chill" interview day, hopefully :xf:. I regard myself as a talkative person, so hopefully I should be all right.
 
Why can't I find Quinnipiac in MDapps? I can't find it in the pull-down list under Quinnipiac or Netter. I want to look into interview experiences from past applicants. I've never used MDapps before, so I'm confused on how it works. What is the best way to query all the interview experiences from past applicants on the site?

Do you have access to the main campus fitness center as well / the main campus facilities? Also, is it pretty easy to get into New Haven via public transportation from North Haven?

Yeah, we have access to the main campus fitness center, but it's a 10 minute drive. There is also the York Hill fitness center which is about 1/2 mi from the main campus, but I haven't used it before. I don't know anything about public transportation, so unfortunately I can't help you with that one, but New Haven is only a 10-15 min. trip, so I can't imagine it's all that difficult.

True, we only complain because it's an inconvenience to run outside when the weather's not palatable and because the fitness center is underwhelming considering our expectations. Plus, although it only happens around noon, it sucks when the machine you want is taken up. There is a sign-up sheet to reserve machines however. The fitness center also doesn't open on weekends either. I believe the fitness centers are open on the weekend at the other campuses.

Almost everyone I know has a car. There are a few people within my class that don't have their driver's license yet, but it's definitely a hassle for them to bum rides off of other people/take public transportation. I would highly advise getting a car by 3rd year since there are multiple clinical sites and the main one is 45 min. away. Plus, your MeSH site will most likely not be within walking distance although our school takes your ability to drive (Californians that have never seen snow before) and whether you have a car into consideration when assigning MeSH sites.

Do you recommend a 4wd car (because of snow and weather) or will just any car do?

How much driving experience do you have? Even though last winter was the worst winter I've ever experienced, I made due with 2wd. However, I've been driving for >10 yrs through Ohio winters which are fairly similar to winters in Connecticut. Personally, I love driving through snow as it's the only socially acceptable time to fishtail through intersections. The major roads will usually be plowed, but their are plenty of smaller roads (and maybe even your own driveway) that may not be plowed often. I've never tried it, but I've heard that kitty litter works wonders for getting traction over snow if you're stuck. Bottom line, 4wd isn't necessary, but if given the choice I would take it.

I am from the land of no snow (aka west coast) so Im not really used to snow driving. That said, if they'll give me a better rotation site for not driving, I'll take it 😀
 
From the website, it says we need 32 semester hours in the pre-reqs. I didn't take Ochem lab 2, but because my other courses were more units, I would have 34 units. Cool? :nailbiting:

I would send an email to MD admissions and see what they say, but I believe you would need a class to replace the missing Ochem lab credits. I had well over the number of prereq credits due to 7 years of undergrad, but I still had to find a replacement class for my missing credits to fulfill the English prereqs. Keep in mind though, you need to fulfill the requirements BEFORE MATRICULATION and not before applying, so you could take Ochem lab 2 this fall or spring semester and still apply.

For the secondary question: What area of medicine do you envision yourself working in at the end of your training? What is shaping your vision?

Are they asking us what field we would like to go into? I honestly don't know what kind of doctor I want to become. However, I do envision myself working with the underserved and disadvantaged population. Can the population I wish to provide healthcare to be considered an "area of medicine"?

Lol calm down man. Freak out over one rejection? You're most likely going to a majority of rejections, just like everyone else. That's just how it is. Tulane is highly selective based on mission and fit. Plenty of high stat applicants get rejected off the bat and early on. Be happy you have an early II and don't be so anxious

Lol calm down man. Freak out over one rejection? You're most likely going to a majority of rejections, just like everyone else. That's just how it is.

Not freaking out but it's normal to dislike rejection. I don't really care for Tulane after going there for undergrad. More of doing what I can to prepare for the interview and those feedbacks seem most helpful. Go-getter lacking in interview skills here.
