Has anyone that interviewed last week received the survey email yet? She said when we get that email that means our decisions are in the mail.

They say they send them Friday. But my acceptance packet was mailed the following Wednesday

 

[FutureSurgical]

For accepted students: did yall get the school code for the CBC?

Saw a lot of the interview feedback on SDN about hard ethical questions..can anybody confirm the interview style is similar this year? Not sure how old those posts were

I had a few hard ethical questions mixed with more light conversation. But that was just me.

Also received a survey. Did anyone else notice it said, “have a good weekend?” How odd...

 

[Cardioparty-o]

Hmmm, mine just said “take care and enjoy the rest of the day”

Okay.... that’s really weird. You would think they would be sent out the same day/time, so I wonder why the letters are different. Ugh I think I’ll be on edge until I get an answer.

 

[hopeful4thebest]

did anyone else not get a survey email yet. interviewed week of 20th-24th.

 

[skbeach100]

does UT mail out all decisions? Like waitlist too?

 

[premed199813]

Has anyone gotten an acceptance letter and not a call? Or do they almost always call first?

 

[CH47]

CBC?

It's weird when you've been in the medical field that whenever I see "CBC" - it means Complete Blood Count lol

Just relax and be yourself. It's a very laid back and fun interview day!

 

[soccergrl27]

II yesterday! I was complete 9/20, IS and first time applicant. Don't give up hope if you are waiting!

II last night for interview date in 5 days. Pretty quick turnaround to prepare. How were the interviews?

 

[Cardioparty-o]

Received acceptance packet today!

 

[Dad1719]

Received acceptance packet today!

That’s really awesome. I’m hoping mine comes in the mail today too. Congrats. What part of Tennessee are you from? I’m curious if the mail from Memphis has had time to make it to me yet.

 

[Autumn23]

Does anyone know when we could potentially hear about scholarships?

 

[DrJohnnyCash]

Does this school give you options for interview days when you get the II?

 

[FutureSurgical]

Does this school give you options for interview days when you get the II?

You only get one day assigned. But you're allowed to change by giving 4 alternative dates. They'll choose one of those for you

I’m from Middle Tennessee!

Congratulations! Welcome to the club!

Thank you all so much! It’s taken me a long time to get to this point haha.

 

[skbeach100]

I’m from middle tn too and havent got my packet yet even though it should be here by now. Should I call Ms. Diane??

Did you get the survey on Monday? I wouldn't worry about it too much. Mail can take awhile, even for letters in the same area. I'm in Middle TN too and just received a parcel that was shipped priority, 2-day shipping.... 7 days later. I'd give it a week before calling!

 

[DonutCat]

Does this school give you options for interview days when you get the II?

I had two days listed for separate locations, both were required. However, I was unable to make either one and provided alternative dates. Ended up interviewing all on one day instead of two, and it was one of my alternative dates requested.

You are not alone. I'm still waiting on that II as well. Secondary was completed months ago and haven't heard anything since. Keeping my fingers crossed.

Nope, nothing yet

Were interviews more on the casual/convo side or actual tough questions? Have my interview on the 17th and am trying to gauge how best to prepare.
