[doitforthewhitecoat]

When were you complete?

7/11 - from the west coast, no ties, and LizzyM 66 so wasn't holding my breath.

 

[orangeseahorse]

Interviewed 9/23 and I have yet to hear anything, anyone else? Also, congratulations to everyone that got an A!!

I interviewed 9/27 and haven’t heard anything either :/

 

[absurdlyabnormal]

First A in two cycles 😄 so relieved!!! Interviewed on 10/14! Good luck everyone waiting to hear, good news will come!

 

[wanttobeamd22]

Congratulations to all the A's!!. You're all going to have an awesome weekend. 😀

Hello! Does anyone know if there is a drawback to selected the West Reading Campus? I know the environment would be different, but is there any other major difference? I kinda like the idea of being in a more open area and having a known location to be at for 3rd year, but I also do not want to limit my options in the match in the future, or be in a hospital that is not used to medical students. Thanks!

Anyone who got an II post-hold?

 

[CrabcakesandFootball]

Has anyone been rejected post interview?

 

[tandapp]

Has anyone been rejected post interview?

They list it as a potential post-interview decision on their website (accepted, deferred, rejected) but I don't know if I've seen anyone report a rejection!

 

[medwannabe350]

Deferred yesterday after interview 10/7-- anyone have an idea of the movement on their deferred list?

Congrats on the As!

 

[Rocky1976$]

hold = rejection?

 

[pre-doo-med]

OOS II received! Complete early-mid august.

what dates are they booking out to?

 

[Trained LabRat]

hold = rejection?

I don’t think so. Some reported pre II rejections

 

[Dr.StevieBrule]

what dates are they booking out to?

12/14 and 12/15 were the earliest dates available, pretty decent

 

[keeppushing99]

Deferred yesterday, interviewed 9/29

 

[bsiddiqui0211]

Just wanted to add to this thread late in case it might help anyone. Got II on Nov 5th when I was complete in mid-August.

For those of you that have interviewed, was there time to ask the student questions in your group student interview?

 

[BioPsychotic]

Dear Drexel adcom,

I went to Philly and didn't have a Philly cheesesteak. If you provide me with an II, I can remedy this mistake.

Best,
BioPsychotic

 

[dreaming_doctor]

For those of you that have interviewed, was there time to ask the student questions in your group student interview?

Yes, for mine it was a low-stress conversation between us interviewees and the student interviewer. You'll for sure be able to ask some of your own questions.

Was it a group interview? If so, with how many other students did you have your student interview with?

Edit: Jk I am dumb I see that it is a group interview. But with how many other students?

 

[ananxiouspremedstudent]

Is there a way to find our interviewers emails to send thank you letters?

 

[medicineandrunning]

Is there a way to find our interviewers emails to send thank you letters?

They said that we can send our thank you notes to the admissions email and they will send them out to our interviewers

 

[bananamacaroon]

Pre-II hold today, complete late july, LM 72, OOS

how did you find out? was it just updated on your portal? I submitted in mid July and its been radio silence since then...

 

[AnotherPre-med]

Hello everyone! I hope you all are doing well! Did any of you get a response to the thank you notes or email submission for update letters post II? I haven't gotten any response, so I was curious.

I had two others with me. It may or may not vary depending on how many people are there for interview day.

I didn't get any replies to my thank-you notes. I think some previous posts also didn't hear back and that it's safe to assume the admin counselors passed them along.

 

[Dr.StevieBrule]

Ok, to clarify on the group interview, are you interviewing in a group with other applicants? Or do they mean you are being interviewed (solo) by a group of current students?

From reading other replies to this thread and from the internet, it sounds like a group of applicants with one student interviewer. Bizarre! Can anyone who's interviewed explain how it worked? Surely they can't have everyone answering long-winded questions like 'Why Medicine'...

Ngl that sounds awful haha jumping from the first circle of hell to the fifth

It’s not that bad. Mine was just with one other applicant and it was taking turns answering pretty standard, more relaxed and decently conversational interview style questions. Think teamwork experience, adversity, etc.

When i interviewed people i asked questions about what they like to do to gauge who they are as a person.

Would you suggest picking up hobbies other than lifting and Warzone or is that an impressive enough answer?
