Yes interviewed here last Tuesday! The interview day is lecture during the day then lunch then two interviewers both of which are faculty. Then after that the medical school tour and Q&A session with current medical students. Tips are to prepare for the unexpected one of my interviews was over webcam because the interviewer couldn’t make it but many of the questions were tailored around challenges, disagreements, obstacles and how you were able to overcome them and what you learned from them (besides the standard why medicine why do you want to be a doctor, etc.) Overall I enjoyed the day I like the school a lot!

Thank you! Interview day was great. Small group of us, handful of informative presentations, interviews, tour, few more presentations/Q&A. Nothing unexpected, and as for pointers, it really just comes down to the interviews. I had two very enjoyable conversations with my interviewers and really just tried to be genuine with my responses.

Has anyone emailed them after the "3-6 weeks" they estimated it would take to complete preliminary review to get an update on status? It's been 7 weeks for me.. wondering if I should just sit tight or make sure all is well.
