Is this school known for significant WL movement? I know med students in the past have classmates that were WL'd but not sure if its a trend

Just had my interview here earlier today. Did a anyone else get a stress interview ? Mine was a full hour of loaded questions where he not only picked out any inconsistencies in my application, and made fun of them sometimes lol. But also asked follow up questions in an assertive tone, and would disagree with things I had to Say. It was an experience to say the least hahaha

were you select or core? If select, then we definitely had the same interviewer and I almost walked out by the end
 
Has anyone else from the October interview dates not heard anything back yet? Specifically 10/22 CORE.
I would call the office if I were you. Instead of the main line, call the admissions advisor Michelle at 813-974-3396. I find that calling on Wed, Thurs or Friday works best. They usually interview on Mondays and Tuesdays so those days are not good days to get someone to answer the phone. At least she can check to see if your decision letter has been mailed. They only provide decisions via mail, not e-mail from what they said on interview day.
 
Spoke to her this morning. I interviewed 10/22 and she said last week the letter is likely lost. I asked for an update and she said there wasn’t one because they’re interviewing this week and ended the conversation. Makes me feel like it’s an R based on the vibes but I guess I’ll never know lmao
Wait so they’re just not gonna tell you the decision or what?
 
Good question. I imagine they will at some point but I have to emotionally let it go because it is making me feel a little dehumanized and I have other interviews to worry about
I’m sorry man that’s tough, good luck on your other Interviews!
 
@2551d Check AMCAS choose your school tool. All acceptances so far if any are listed there as of today.

It was wild!! I kept myself very composed and continued to stand my ground and support myself . But I honestly couldn’t understand what was going on. And it was literally questions , drill style , for an entire hour

I was interviewing for Core. And my other Interviewer would interrupt me during my answers on purpose . Did it multiple times

Just got a call, but couldn't pick up as I am scribing right now. Neuroticism is at an all time high for me ATM. Interviewed 10/22 Core, Waitlisted December
 
Omg I can't stop shaking.... I just got an acceptance call from Dr. Daniel after receiving the waitlist letter yesterday in the mail!! 11/12 CORE. Good luck to everyone still waiting to hear back!
I got an acceptance call too after being on the waitlist! I am SO excited! I love Florida and want to be around more Spanish speakers. It's such a beautiful city and I'm so ready for a change <3 <3 <3 <3

Does anyone know if Feb/March SELECT interviews are for waitlists?
Just skimmed thru last year’s thread and it didn’t seem like people interviewed for SELECT in feb or march were accepted before getting waitlisted first.
 
Is anybody looking for a roommate? I'm looking at either channelside or Ybor. More expensive than elsewhere in Tampa, but it's sort of looking like due to traffic/convenience, it might be worth the extra cost. With a roommate a decent place close to campus is in the neighborhood of $1000 a piece. In general looking for somebody who is serious about school but also laid back. I’m a guy and I have a dog.

I’m also going to be looking for a roommate soon but I would hold out until the facebook class page is made if you want to find someone who you could easily live with.

Oh last time I checked there was only 1 person in it. Once it gets more people shouldn’t be too hard. The general consensus is that you can’t go wrong with living in someone of the apts in Channelside.
