II on Tuesday. So excited and nervous.
Can anyone who interviewed here give me more details about the clinical activity part of the interview. Someone mentioned that there is a 7 min writing portion and then two 5 min simulated interviews with actors. What was the writing portion about? Was the simulation like taking a patient history?

I don't really think anyone can tell you about this without violating some kind of privacy policy. But just know that you will be fine! If you have a brain, and you can talk to other humans, there's no more prep you need to do and you will be fine.

Does anyone know exactly what the CCL is? Is it a ranked waitlist or are they reevaluating all of us on April 30th? Just unsure in terms of sending them updates and additional recs.

Does temple accept additional letters of rec while on the CCL?
 
Any February interviewees hear anything yet? I'm ~7 weeks out and recall them saying we'd hear in 4-6 weeks. Can we ask for our status if it's been over 6 weeks?

In my CCL letter they said you could send any letters or updates to the admissions email. I'm guessing people have done that in the past and I just had someone submit one for me.
 
Im beginning to prewrite secondaries, is it OK to write "Temple" when referring to the school, or did everyone write "the Lewis Katz School of Medicine" ??

Not complaining ofc haha, just confused!

It happened on 3/31/17. If you have any questions you can always call the admissions office and maybe set up a day you can shadow a med student
 
Convinced Temple lost my application or something after all these pre-II rejections have gone out yet I still haven't heard anything.

I'm with you. fwiw it shows that my application was updated on 4/12 so I don't think it's actually lost lol.
 
Just got mail from temple with my decision. No email. Is this normal? I'm too afraid to open it.
