Members don't see this ad.

I'm in the same boat. A little disappointed that they didn't at least include it in an email. I've been sitting here waiting on secondaries and didn't know what was going on

Did you see that the AAMC added dates for October

 

[blan2311]

Do you all think they will accept the October SJT since AAMC added new dates?? Debating sending the secondary back if they don't accept the new date

The issue is that by the time you get the score back it will be late into the cycle

You should email admissions and ask if they will accept the October date. Also ask if they can begin reviewing your file without the score (so you can submit everything else in the meantime).

Yes, but I don't know if they will accept those scores. The site says they only accept until September.

Does anyone know if they provide iPads for students?

 

[futureeeedr]

Can anyone who interviewed already remind me what email we send thank you letters to please?

Hey! I am in my gap year now and scored a 499 on my MCAT. I was on 3 executive boards in college, did 3 research internships, served as a peer mentor on my college campus, and helped with covid-19 vaccinations for 6 months. What are my chances of landing an interview? My cgpa is 3.73 and sgpa is 3.63. I am also an in-state aa male.

Have you taken the MCAT more than once and what were the scores if you did? Are you planning to take it again in near future?

 

[dociceman]

I retook it a month ago and my score decreased slightly

Always there is a possibility how high or low is based on a lot of things.

I suggest posting in the WAMC forum. They can help you evaluate your credentials and craft a school list.

Anyone know how long before the interview we get the link? Starting to get nervous I won’t have it in time!

I got mine 4 days before my scheduled interview. I noticed up thread you said you didn't get the interview confirmation email? The itinerary? That is the email that contains the link.

Good to know! Yeah I didn’t get that confirmation e-mail…I’ll reach out in a day or so if I don’t see anything come up. Thanks!

[musicxroyal]

[Medlife006]

Good luck to everyone this cycle!

 

[bbldoc4]

Pretty chill. My interviewers pretty much just went through my app and asked me to talk more about my experiences I listed

 

[futureeeedr]

One interviewer actually just wanted to get to know me while the other one asked me the basic why med/morehouse and that was the end lol

[Crotchetlittlebuckets]

I guess so lol. Let's hope we hear something in the upcoming weeks

 

[futureeeedr]

Do you guys think people who interview In September will hear back tomorrow?

I interviewed in August (not Sept) but they told us we could expect to hear back late fall around November.

Last year their first round of decisions came out around that time too (mid Nov).

IS II, complete 10/7

 

[edgydoc]

II just now!! IS, complete 8/17. I was starting to get nervous that I'd been passed over, especially since I'm IS. So excited!!

 

[brownboy24]

II this morning as well!! IS, complete 9/28.
Does anyone know the post interview acceptance/waitlist/rejection rate?

I believe those numbers aren’t released. MSAR can tell you about # of interviews granted —> # matriculated, but not # accepted.

I do know that they usually have a lot of waitlist movement. Now go rock that interview!

what are your stats?

 

[gabid2b]

How far out are the interview dates currently?

first week of november

 

[brownboy24]

This is my first interview, would anyone be interested in doing interview prep and mock interviews?

Congrats on the II!! If you don’t have any luck here, there seems to be a group of people organizing weekly mock interviews on the premed Reddit.

 

[BioPsychotic]

I can definitely help! Hit me up if you’d like one. I felt that doing a bunch of mock interviews with different people helped my actual interview go really smoothly.

 

[lela013]

I had my interview yesterday, and I absolutely adored my 2 interviewers! Both were very kind and candid during our discussion. I will say there were multiple questions they both asked, so I repeated myself a few times! Other than that, I feel like they really just want to get to know you and see if your values align with the mission.

Would you recommend any way to prepare? From what im hearing, the interviews are very laid back, however I still wish to prepare to maximize my chances

Know what is in your application and how you can support the school in its mission. Prepare answers for standard interview questions too like why medicine and the like.

I agree! Pretty standard questions. Know the mission and know why you applied to the school. Nothing out of the ordinary and no ethic type of questions! The hour flew by so fast since it was very casual and more conversation like. 🙂

Does anyone know if they accept email updates?

 

[deleted853360]

Does anyone know if they accept email updates?

they do! I believe all updates should be sent to the admissions email. They love when students let them know that they’re still interested in their program

Edit: [in case this is seen first] someone commented below and said no pre-II updates

 

[TDCH33ZY]

II just now!! OOS

[icysnake]

For those of you who interviewed earlier on- have you sent update letters? I know we won't hear back until late fall, so I'm wondering if there's anything I should be doing in the interim. Thanks!
