II! Complete 8/4, OOS. Are the only interview dates 9/7?! I have an interview IS on 9/8
Edit: Emailed to reschedule, hopefully it'll work out.
Congrats! Do you mind sharing when your AMCAS was verified?
Did you find out through your portal or did they email you?
Wow quick turn around! Mind sharing your stats?
Not very competitive to be honest. I am so grateful for this opportunity. I just hope I get accepted
You have the same stats I do! MCAT 499 with 3.6 c/s gpa. This gives me hope. Congrats!
oh wow thanks, well you have a better overall gpa than me I think you definitely have hope , hang in there.
It’s not so bad, and it’s nothing you can “prepare” too much for. There are 10 stations total, with 2 stations being “break” stations meaning you get to sit in a room alone and collect your thoughts before you keep going. It moves really really fast! You only get to discuss the prompt with the interviewer for 6 minutes if I remember correctly, then it’s on to the next room. So just be prepared for that, and remember to not get flustered! If you do bad on one station, let it go before reading the next prompt. I know that’s easier said than done, but each room is a “fresh start” so take advantage of that.
During my interview, we had a little issue with the PA system where we couldn’t hear the directions at one point, so just be flexible and try not to stress if that happens.
As for the prompts, they asked a wide variety of things that focused on your creative thinking/problem solving skills, ethical reasoning, and leadership/teamwork skills in a sort of “what would you do?” type of question, and most of them were NOT directly related to medicine or science. Nothing too hard at all! The best thing to do is just be honest, answer the question, and back up your answer with confidence. You can look up practice MMI questions to get a feel for what could be asked, but personally I did that and none of the questions on interview day were the same as what I found on Google haha.
Don’t be nervous! I had a great time at UT. And you should be proud of yourself, you’ve already cleared the biggest hurdle which is getting the interview in the first place, so congrats!! You’ll do great
I just got the accepted email! They only accepted 20 people today.
