Anyone know when the MD interview day ends? It's not entirely clear on the website. Trying to figure out transportation back to New England.

does anyone know if there is a way to see who specifically (their names) will be interviewing us?
I imagine we'll only find out on the day of the interview.
That information wouldn't help you at all tbh. If you brought up something in the interview that made it apparent that you looked them up it would reflect very poorly on you.
Did anyone interview here yet? Any tips/general thoughts on your experience? Any comments are appreciated y'all

It depends on how early your scheduled interviews are. People left at different times. But I think the latest was around 3-330 pm.

There were also a few people there who notified the interview coordinator beforehand that they had to leave by a certain time, and the coordinator scheduled them for morning interviews only I think. So they were able to leave at like 1:45/2
Thank you both
I was the latest to leave from my group and left at 3:30. About half the group left by 1

What'd you do during downtime? Did they let you explore the campus, did you just sit there and chat with other applicants, or did they bring you to shadow classes or whatnot?
I hung out in the room for a bit and chatted. Also one of the 4th years was willing to take me around and show me cool spots like their A lab. Generally most folks just chatted amongst themselves. It was a cool group of folks
Interview invite received today! I'm pretty excited 🙂)
There were a few slots left in late November and a bunch for early December.
Complete early August, IS, LM 73

Not a medical student here so take my advice with a grain of salt, but I don't see why not. Speaking with current students, Stony Brook has a big emphasis on research, especially in basic sciences. As a medical student, you'd have plenty of opportunity to pursue whichever field of research you desire.
Thanks for the response! I agree. Plus, if you do research (specifically in cancer) with SB faculty, they probably will be conducting it in the MART anyway, so I don't think they'd deny students access there.
Just wondering, do most med students at sbu conduct basic science research or clinical research?
will we be hearing anything tomorrow?
The first interview session was on 9/12 so no one’s been interviewed more than 6 weeks ago. I’m not sure when the earliest interview date was last year, but looking at last year’s thread it seems people started hearing pretty soon after 10/15. Good luck everyone! Eeeeeekk!

Excuse my interruption in the string of Acceptances.
II today, complete late September. Dates all throughout December available. They have so many interview days left! I can’t believe they handed out what seems to be a lot of acceptances already
