Can anyone talk about what the format of interview day is like?
I can't recall specifics but they do a really good job of setting up the interview day for alot of opportunities for applicants to interact with eachother. It's really hard to achieve virtually but Emory did a phenomenal job with facilitating that bonding! Or atleast thats how I felt... On the down side to that, the way they facilitate this bonding is having you keep your webcam on at all times even if you need to take a break so you feel alittle pressured to be on camera a lot more which you start to feel at the end of the interview day.

Oh wow! It seems like a very long day then. Are there at least scheduled breaks?
I don’t remember there being a formal break but I could be wrong...

Are they still sending IIs?
Did anyone who interviewed on 10/12 hear back? I think I remember them saying we would be included in the October committee meeting but I don't believe I've seen anyone from that date say they were accepted yet.
II just now!
SHOCKED I heard from a school like Emory.

There were not! However, they were super cool about you being able to get up and go outside as long as you kept your camera on. I went to get coffee and snacks and ate while we hung out in the "waiting room" space and so did a lot of other people. It's a long day and I was exhausted at the end but they were SO nice and I honestly really enjoyed it.
There are two December dates: 14 and 21st. I have to check my final exam schedule before choosing.

complete late July and still no word... are they done with giving out II?
Can anyone speak to the structure of the group interview?

It's really just that. Group of 3-4 students and they ask the same tradition interview questions to everybody. It's really low stress though, so don't worry.
No but good reputation
From what I understand, it’s kind of in the top20 spill over. Similar to Case, etc. This goes with the idea that there are “more than 20 schools in the top20”. It is in the top20 for RD ranking. It’s all kind of arbitrary though so everyone will have different opinions around cusp schools.
"Top 25" I believe.

Yeah, and that's the drawback. Because a few answers definitely got personal for everybody.

Got one Friday so I don't think they're done.
If I were lucky enough to get an interview, my answers would get very personal too. I think you just go ahead and open up, tell your story, and know that your name and face are likely going to be a blur for those you're interviewing with, and you aren't really that likely to be classmates with them anyway, as most people Emory will choose will have multiple schools to pick from, as will you, hopefully. Don't let the other blurry Zoom people on the screen keep you from telling your story. Just go for it.

How far out is Emory scheduling interviews?
Looks like their website says that they have interviews scheduled through February and that they will also be giving out II through that month as well.

I should have added *currently* I'm curious as to whether November/December dates are still available.
July 31st.
What interview dates were available?
tons! lots of December-January dates
THank you so much for answering. Yay! That is surprising. 🙂
Same! Such great vibes at Emory.
Like post-interview decision? They have an acceptance release once a month I believe

Many people who submitted in July haven't even heard back yet. In this cycle, there is no "expect to hear by" date. We all just wait and pray to the pre-med gods for patience in the meantime.
i am kind of in your boat. complete mid september. not expecting a ton, but i couldn't just not submit it
II just now! Complete 7/21.
