Guys I got another email saying it was from saint louis. Still good I guess but would have preferred an IS II. tbh i forgot i applied to SL lol

For those that got an II, does anyone know where to access the Virtual Interview Agreement form?
 
Nah, I think it's more likely that there was some kind of mistake. There are no available dates anymore. Kind of crazy, I've never seen an interview invite before, so I about fell out of my chair. It's a shame really... I already told my mom.
Hey! Kinda of late on this, but the same thing happened to me with a different school that also used the aamc portal. I called them and it was a legit II, but they did say it was an error that I got the II before the secondary and they just told me to submit the secondary asap. So maybe its a glitch with the website, but they still meant to give you an II? I would definitely recommend calling to be sure!

So I know the committee had a meeting on 10/7 and they meet every other week. Does anyone think those that interviewed between 10/6 and 10/14 will hear this week since they’re meeting tomorrow 10/21?

In the follow up email it said we may not hear for 4-6 weeks. I feel like if we don't hear back this week it will probably be two weeks from now but maybe even longer. I have given up hope hearing from schools quickly I think they just like to tease us.
 
Interviewed with Wright State recently. I didn’t think they did a great job at “selling” the school in their presentations and info sessions. However, I had a blast with my interviewers! Both were kind and easy to talk with, definitely felt more like a conversation than an interview!

I second this. One of the interviewers actually spent the interview selling the school to me specifically and learned more from her than in the other sessions. That's not to say those other ones are useless, though.
 
I'm glad others felt this way. I unfortunately had an interviewer who had been retired for 10+ years and couldn't even answer basic questions about the school because they are "no longer involved." They also grilled me on where else I had interviewed and told me "Well good luck with those...they have high standards," in a very mocking tone. I was really disappointed with my interview day. This school was my top choice before I interviewed. I understand it is hard to transition everything to a virtual format and I am grateful for the chance to interview, but every person I met was apathetic at best about the school. Super disappointing.

Wow, that really sucks. I'm sorry that happened to you. May I ask what other schools you're applying to? (Or your new top choice, haha!)
 
Submitted secondary in September and received Interview Invite exactly one month after on the Weekend. Actual Interview was 10 days after. Im out-of-state. No ties to Ohio or the school. and I really liked my interview. Super nice. Conversational and informative.

Do you mind sharing your stats?
 
II last night at 10!! Complete 8/28. LM66,ORM,OOS with close ties to med school and undergrad. Dates available 10/10,10/17,10/18,10/24. Good luck everyone!

I think you meant November dates, not October 🙂
Have you gotten an interview confirmation yet?
 
anyone who has already interviewed have any advice/willing to message me about how you prepared for the interview? I've heard it's pretty laid back but just wanted to talk to someone who has already interviewed 🙂

Yes, I meant November, thanks for catching that! I confirmed a date but haven't received a conformational email yet.

Thanks for letting me know 😀
I haven't gotten a confirmation email yet (where we're supposed to sign the document and attach a pic of ourselves), so I was wondering how long that takes usually haha. Just being neurotic and making sure I don't miss it.

Just received the confirmation email!
 
Hey guys, do we have to take the photo using the Passport Booth app when we sign the document? I wanted to upload a professional headshot picture I have saved on my laptop
 
Too late to submit secondary? Received it early September but two full-time jobs have really limited the time I could dedicate to writing. Will submit regardless as it’s definitely one of my top choices- just would like to know how negatively I will be affected by this timeline. Heard mixed opinions given COVID & whatnot, especially since schools are each at a unique place in their review process.
 
Anyone who has gotten an interview: how long does it take for WSU to send the interview confirmation that we need to sign + attach a photo with (within 48 hours of receiving it, I believe)?

Just selected my date so I want to be on the look out for the confirmation/agreement we sign.
mine was the next morning. good luck !!! u got this homie
