ACOM's interview is rather straightforward. They want to get to know you and see if you are a good fit for the school and its mission. Just be yourself. Also be polite and personable.
I plan on saying something along the lines of, "Well, right now I am a single person, but in the future I would look forward to getting married. I also have my four siblings, and my parents too."
I am! Can't wait!Anyone interviewing on 9/1?
Completed 07/31. Congrats on everyone interviewing! How long did it take before you received an interview invite. The email says within 3 weeks but I'm hoping it's sooner if I get invited.
How long do they usually take to inform interviewees of offer/WL?I never read any interview books and I'm still able to do well in my interview here. Just prepare for basic questions like "why DO, why medicine, why ACOM." Be yourself, you should use your own experiences to answer those questions cause that what they are looking for.
Yea they are super quick once you are marked complete!Completed 07/31. Congrats on everyone interviewing! How long did it take before you received an interview invite. The email says within 3 weeks but I'm hoping it's sooner if I get invited.
I think it was within 2 weeks last year. first interviews are Friday so i guess we can report back with what they say!How long do they usually take to inform interviewees of offer/WL?

That's great, thank you!One to two weeks usually.
Hey yall!! I just applied here recently and am excited to hear back soon, hopefully! Do yall know the email format for this school? I am trying to reach someone specific in admissions and can only fins a generic admissions email. Normally schools are first name or first letter of first name, then last name @ whatever school address, but I truly cannot find any email addresses, so I wasn't sure. If you know anything, I'd love the help!

Good Luck with your interview! I'm interviewing on the 11th as well!How was your interview? I'm interviewing on 8/11 and feeling a little nervous (I tend to babble when I interview). Did it seem relaxed to you? Any curve ball questions?
Can anyone clarify this message I got from ACOM? Will they send out another batch for II? "The AdComs has not selected you for an interview at this time. Your application will remain active and you could be selected for an interview at a later date."
To you and all those interviewing this Friday, good luck and have fun!flying to dothan tomorrow and feeling pretty terrified lol
thanks!To you and all those interviewing this Friday, good luck and have fun!
Thank you, so excited!
Try to keep in mind that it's still very early in the application cycle and they are probably getting mass amounts of emails and phone calls in addition to getting our class situated since we had orientation all last week and this was only the 3rd day of lectures. They are well worth the wait trust me. But don't be shy about continuing to try to contact themHas anyone been hearing back from the school? I've had multiple emails unanswered and a phone message unreturned. It's really dropped the school from my top choices list with how unresponsive they've been.

anyone know how many people they interview? vs how many get accepted? curious to see this because so many people are getting II's. good luck to everyone this cycle!
I can't find much info but they interviewed 450 their first year and usually accept 162.
They matriculate 162, they probably accept significantly more than that!

I'm not sure about food since I either eat at home or at the school but definitely check out the Recovery Room! It's the favorite bar for a vast majority of ACOM students!anyone know of places to grab food in dothan?!
I am pretty sure the first interview is tomorrow! But if you look at the ACOM 2016-2017 page you can find TONS of insight on the interviewFellow SDNers who interviewed today, do share your thoughts! Did you feel prepared? What did you wish you knew now that you're done? Any wisdom is much appreciated!
