Omg 😭 Did this cycle just get insanely competitive or what?
 
Quite a few of those "we're not interviewing you now, but maybe later" people did get interviews last year.
I think they were trying to word it kindly, which I think was partly successful :shy:

I’m in the same boat. Same exact MCAT score increase too. I haven’t received the email though. Hopefully I’m not rejected…

It's pretty early and a lot of invites are still left to go out through the fall and and some in the spring. DO's interview cycles are notoriously long.
Sit tight!
 
For those who got the interview hold email, when was your application completed?

Not sure if anyone has interviewed yet for this cycle, but wondering if the 2 hours are filled with all MMI stations. Any breaks?

There is a "rest" station between the MMI interviews. Basically, as you finish your interviews, you'll go into a room where an OMS-2 will answer questions, You'll wait there until the the time for the next MMI interview or writing prompt.

It was something like eight sessions total. You get put in a zoom "breakout room" with your interviewer, then you have 2 min to read the prompt, then eight minutes to discuss. You are bounced around to all interviewers...then an observed group activity.

Ahhh it's the group activity that fills the rest of that time. That answers a lot for me. Thank you!

I had an interview for UIWSOM last Friday, and I was doing it at the library, the wifi was spotty, so I went outside and it starting raining on my suit. The interviewers were very kind and appreciated that I kept going with the interview even with spotty WiFi and getting soaked by rain. They said they liked my determination and ability to deal with challenges. I hope my interview went well we will have to see. Definitely the most eventful interview I’ve ever had 😂

Hi there for those that interviewed? How many days before your interview did you all receive the ZOOM links?
 
Anyone submit early but have not heard anything yet? Like not even the waitlist email?

To people who've interviewed already at UIWSOM, would you care to share how long the interview process was? I am planning on reserving a library room for it, but unsure how long to reserve it for. TIA! :))

Plan for just under 2 hours. I think we completed at about an hour 45. Good luck!
