They called at 12:30! (But I missed the call and then there was some phone tag )

I had this too - what area code was your call from? I think the number I got a call from was out in CA and they didn't leave a message, so I kind of disregarded it. Did they leave you a message?I also got a call at 12:30, but my phone was on silent and when I called back it said the number was not in service. Not entirely sure what to do now - should I just wait for them to call back?
Thanks! (And thanks to @FettyWapsGF too!)Nice and congrats. Just trying to figure out there system of informing... are you in the first or last half of the alphabet, and were you august or sept? That is, if you don't mind sharing

@angus2193 Is your last name in the first or second half of the alphabet?
Did they call just now?Accepted!! Also had a voicemail from Roanoke area code from Dr. Prusakowski. Called back and got someone else in admissions but they were lovely too!

Congrats Do you mind saying if your last name is in the first or second half of the alphabet? Sorry for all the prying.The voicemail says 1:49, but the hospital I work at has the worst cell service so I didn't get the notification that I had a voicemail till 2:15 or so?

Wondering this as well. Complete mid-Aug and still waiting to hear backany new IIs this week?
Pros: small class, awesome research support and research built into the curriculum, nice facilities, faculty/admin seem really invested in the success of the students, cool curriculum, laid back studentsCan those who have interviewed already comment on the things you were impressed by/your overall take on the school after interviewing there (especially in comparison to other interview experiences if possible)? I am trying to decide whether or not to withdraw my app or attend my interview because I'm not sure if this school fits me as well as the one I've been accepted to and I'm worried it would just add more time off work, travel and unnecessary expenses. Any input you may have would be much appreciated!
Congrats and thanks so much for sharing your completion date!II for 11/19 just yesterday... I was complete July 25, so I was really surprised (but very excited)!
I hope they are keeping spots open for the last interview dates!
There are either 8 or 9 MMI questions (can't remember) and 1 traditional interview that it 2x as long.Anyone mind talking about how the MMI interview is set up? Are people asked any traditional style interview or do you just do stations with different scenarios?
1. Yes you can, but honestly I wouldn't. I took notes at this one but didn't at another MMI and felt like I had a lot more time to think when I wasn't trying to write. There's not enough info to make it hard to retain for 10 minutes.I had some more questions about the MMI process
- Are interviewees allowed to take notes?
- Does the interviewer tell the interviewee that their time is low? (just wondering from a time management perspective)
See ya there!!Got a call this afternoon, offered II for this Saturday. Complete sometime in late July/early August.
+1!See ya there!!

I'll be coming from a different interview so I'll still be traveling that night :/ I went last year though and it was business casual. Most people wore suits and it's just talking with current med students and eating food!@trainracepace @sav5716 See ya there!!! Are yall going to the reception the night before? Anyone know the dress code?
I thought they said DecemberFor people who interviewed on 10-1: does anyone remember what date in November they said they would be making decisions regarding our group?

Congratulations!They had a slide at our interview day on 10/29...the first two interview dates heard in October, the next three would hear in December, and the last two in March or April. I think.
Thanks much, I appreciate your enthusiasm! Good luck!Just wanted to give an overview of what to expect on the night before interview day and on the day of the interview.
During the night before the interview, VTCSOM hosts a reception at the hotel nearest the medical school. It's an opportunity for you to get your questions answered by current medical students. Good food there.
After all of that, they give a short talk with current medical students. Then you get to go home.
Cool swag that you get: a pen with the medical school's name on it + name tag (this one doesn't really count tho)
I hope this write up helps.
+1Have there been any more II recently or are they pretty much done for the rest of the year?
I doubt they're done because they have a total of 6 interview dates (1 each month starting in august), which means they have 2 interview dates left.Have there been any more II recently or are they pretty much done for the rest of the year?
Sounds right !I doubt they're done because they have a total of 6 interview dates (1 each month starting in august), which means they have 2 interview dates left.
