It's two one-on-one interviews

Anyone who applied to FIU MD, did they request course syllabus for all your pre-req courses? A friend who applied to the PA program there was asked for all their syllabi. I didn't keep hardly any of mine.

Believe you can link the course descriptions from your school's online course catalog or email professors for that info.

Is the 2 science LOR a hard requirement here? Or would 1 science and 1 research / 1 letter from a MD suffice? Graduated 2020 btw

I would email admissions and let them know about the circumstances

 

[eeeeps]

This sounds stupid but how do we know for this particular application portal format that our app is complete? Do they email us completion? When I log in, it just shows I've submitted everything. I don't see a status page like the other typical portal format for other schools has.

I think on last year’s post II acceptance rate spreadsheet it was 51% for OOS applicants and slightly higher for IS applicants

do you know how accurate that spreadsheet is? on MSAR it says they had around ~4500 OOS applications last year, but the spreadsheet says ~2500 applications for OOS

For those accepted this year or previously do you know how much this school weighs being bilingual and/or from somewhere international?

I recently interviewed and realized I was the only one who did not have international decent and/or being bilingual. It makes me worried about my chances.

I had neither and was accepted. I'm sure it does help if you are bilingual considering the patient population.

For those that went to the Cafecito hours, we’re they chill? I’m at work so I’m only wearing scrubs. Is this appropriate or should I try to go to another one where I can dress up?
