I'll say as someone who has met a fair chunk of people who will interview you - you are in good hands! The interview is low stress, and is there to see you succeed. Have an idea of how to answer the typical MMI questions and you'll be golden. Good luck, have fun, and I hope to see you after the ungodly long orientation next year. <3

Thank you :') we all got this!!
 
Any other in state applicants not hear anything yet after submitting their application? They stop interviewing in state apps by November so I’m getting kind of nervous.

In state applications get reviewed together and receive their decision in December all at once. Then after that it’s only waitlist slots that are offered.

Wow thats crazy. For Oos Applicants they continue reviewing them until the end of the cycle?
 
Yeah. I think having so few in state applications and having a set number of in state seats in the class is why that do it this way.
 
Are there any current students/M3s who can describe some of the differences between the Connecticut and Vermont campuses?
 
for those who interviewed, can someone remind me if they accept letters of interest post interview?

Wait I'm confused. When do you get to choose the campus. There was no option for me to do that on the secondary. I actually am just now learning there is another campus.

After your interview they send you a link to select your campus (from what my interview email confirmation stated; I interview this Friday.).

Current M2 here - definitely can attest to a really friendly and collaborative culture 🙂 Happy to chat over DMs (with anyone) if you have specific questions. Also, interview days this year have scheduled student panels in the afternoons (non-evaluated) and a handful of entirely student-run Q&A Zooms throughout the fall as well so lots of chances to hear multiple opinions!

Are NBME questions used throughout school? Or are exams created by in-house professors and mostly unrelated to Step 1?
 
My thoughts: also I can't share the MMI stations because I signed a legal document.
The MMI stations were nice! Really thought provoking questions and a really tough ethical question.
Don't be nervous for the MMIs. Just be yourself and have fun. The team work exercise was also nice and everybody was really sweet. The school seems to value social justice and team work. Team work not only for the students, but the students interacting with the community of Vermont. The school seems to pride itself on having an older population of students and also having students from underrepresented groups, such as LGBTQ individuals. Overall, Vermont is a great school and values the applicant and their experiences. Also, don't be hesitant to include personal examples in the MMI questions; it's encouraged.

Exams are created by our faculty and are not NBME questions. Most are said to be NBME "style" i.e. case vignettes with imaging, lab results etc. to interpret but not strictly from any official source, as far as I know. During M1 and M2, we do take 5-6 exams that are all official NBME questions. Those exams are cumulative and curated to our most recent course and usually are the day after our non-cumulative class exam, so they encourage us to just take it and see how much we've retained instead of stressing and overstudying. It's worth maybe 5% to the course grade so certainly low stress and then you get a score report for how well you did relative to the class in different topic areas.

Do you think we'll get decisions on the 15th or 17th?

For those who interviewed in August they said we would hear back after October 17th, but they didn't give us an exact day.

interviewed 9/21 and feel the exact same. stay strong!!
 
Delayed decision as well, anyone got any idea if it's a soft-R? I assume it's probably best to try to forget about hearing back for a while.

I think it’s sort of like that…what does their website say? (I’m just remembering from a few years back when my child applied).

Yup, I believe it is! It says Accepted, WL, or Rejected can be your post-II status
