Has anyone ever received an interview invite while waiting for their Casper scores to comeback?

I remember you mentioned you have a PhD acceptance - I was about to apply MD/PhD in 2020 when I got an acceptance to a DBA program (long story that makes sense for anyone who cares to listen to it, haha). I was struggling on whether I should accept the invite or continue toward MD/PhD when the director of pre-professional advising on my campus (who was writing a LoR for me) said, "Hey, you're wanting to do research in health systems... take this doctorate and do that research you've been wanting to do for years. Med school will still be here when you're done." Although the DBA is a slightly different experience than the PhD, it was an amazing experience for me and I'm certain yours will be, too. If you're still interested in practicing medicine like I am, in a few short years you'll be a stronger candidate and you can apply again. Either way, I'm hoping for the best for you and your loved ones and am rooting for your professional and personal successes.

I have another interview but if that fails and I receive no more interviews, I'll be PhD bound. After a PhD, I'm not sure if I'd have the stamina to come back (although the passion would be there still).

Please prep hard for this interview, I don't think your application or whats on paper is the issue here. But best wishes and congrats in advance! : )

For those who have interviewed, what advice do you have for interview prep?
Click to expand...

I know it sounds cliché, but just be yourself. The questions aren’t hard. They really are just trying to get to know who you are and how your mind works. That’s really it. My two cents, anyway. I haven’t been accepted yet, so obviously take my advice with a grain of salt.

Is Casper even required for Meharry because I’m debating if I even submitted it and I don’t know if I did

Yes it is required. Im just not sure how much weight is placed on it. If you already took Casper I think you can still add schools to your profile.
 
I just added it now. I forgot to do it a while. So I’m not sure either

If anything I would take that as a good sign! They are still considering you it sounds like. I’m thinking because I didn’t get the email that they might not be reviewing mine anymore and it’s over . Keep your head up! It’s probably a good thing.

I didn’t get it either, and I’m starting to think the same as you. However, being optimistic, they could have a system of how they are reviewing these applications, and maybe the people who receive that email are just within that said group that they are reviewing.

Does anybody know what the best way of getting into contact with current students is?
 
TiramisuLover99 said:
Well although it is historically an HBCU, its current mission talks about fostering diversity overall and "providing opportunities for people of color and individuals from disadvantaged backgrounds", so I wouldn't be surprised if it is an ongoing effort on their part to open up their admissions to non-Black people who also fall under those definitions. It would therefore also not surprise me if the percentage of Black students decreased over time, and if that corresponded to an increase in the percentage of students of other disadvantage identities/backgrounds.

Love their mission. Asian friend of mine attend this school.
