This forum made possible through the generous support of SDN members, donors, and sponsors. Thank you.
For those of you who received II, did you get a confirmation email and info about the interview details after you submitted your interview date?

The confirmation email came today and I got the II yesterday. As long as your portal says "thanks for scheduling your interview" or whatever you'll get the confirmation email eventually. I was initially concerned that it didn't come right away as well.

Thanks!! I got the email this morning too, about an hour after I posted the comment lol
 
Has anyone had any issues viewing the supplemental website? I submitted already, but the page does not load when I try to log in. I've tried different browsers and enabling pop-ups.

Also, admissions confirmed that you do not receive confirmation emails after submitting.
 
Can someone let me know, I entered my email/ID in their website to recieve their secondary, but never recieved anything..

The only email I get is one from "amcasliason" that is titled "AMCAS account--password reset request"

I have not had any issues. The page looks the same for me, except it says submitted.
 
Does anybody know if the MMI format leaves any time for normal interview questions, or if there is a part of the interview day that focuses on asking normal interview questions? Or is it strictly the 7 minute scenario-based conversations with little talk about your application?

+1. Would like to know more about the interview here.

Also is the MMI in the morning or afternoon? The schedule doesn’t say.
 
Did you get an email when your app was complete? Still haven’t yet and debating calling....
 
No, I just had green check marks next to everything in the portal.
Wait so help me out. When I log in, I have their interface where I entered all my data. But there doesn’t seem to be a formal status tab. Are we talking about the same thing and you just had check marks next to each part of the secondary application or am I not looking at the right page?

We're looking at the same page. When I log into the secondary, I'm presented with their interface which is divided into different blocks such as "Work/Activities," "Photograph," and "Required Courses." I have green checkmarks next to each part of the secondary and when I received and scheduled an interview, a new block popped up titled as "Interview Scheduled." There doesn't seem to be a formal status page, but at the bottom of the secondary application page, there is a block titled as "Supplemental Application" where I have a green checkmark next to the word "Finished." As long as you have a green checkmark next to everything, you're good.
 
Very excited but also a tad bit nervous to be interviewing here soon. This will be my first MMI. Any current students or previous applicants care to share any advice or tips about the interview day or MMI here? I would greatly appreciate it.

I have. I used the original link from there email instead of the one I saved in my "favorites" and it helped
 
For the course work section how did you guys fill arrange classes? It says add one course then on the next line it says minimus grade: 2 Does that mean I should provide one course or two?

+2. Also, for the Sunday before the interview at the Mexican restaurant the email said "casual" attire. Does this actually mean casual (jeans) or business casual?

casual like jeans is what everyone wore when I went and was a student ambassador

Congrats guys!
 
Is it worth applying here OOS if we have a lower LizzyM (3.8, ~510), but good activities?

Hi, I'm a current MS1 at UA-COMP!

Sorry for the late response as I'm assuming you were an applicant that interviewed today. But, for future interviewees - I really enjoyed my interview day at this school. It was my very first interview ever, so I was definitely nervous, but everyone - faculty, interviewers, current students, and even the other applicants - were all very nice and welcoming. It definitely put me at ease. The MMI really is a chance for them to get to know you, and was a lot more enjoyable than some of the others I ended up doing. Best of luck, and feel free to message me if you have any other more specific questions!
 
Are the match lists posted online? Can't seem to find them.

Edit: and also, what is the step 1 average?

No, I never heard anything between the initial secondary link and the interview invite (my portal just had everything as submitted like yours)
 
Congrats again guys!

There’s quite a few current students here and a new alumnae (thats me!) that would be happy to answer questions. Please feel free to ask and we’ll do our best to answer.
 
Hi all, I am very unsure what this last question on the secondary is asking? What exactly do the mean by this?

" Please reference the Work/Activities section. If any of the competencies were unmatched, please provide an explanation below. (1000)"

Thank you,

Have you completed the rest of the application? That question makes more sense at the end because your application will tell you whether any of the competencies are incomplete. If there are some that are incomplete, this question is where you explain why.
