The interviewers will know your application very well and have taken notes on it. They will ask you very direct questions about things on your application and then ask you more ended questions about medicine and your path/journey. I would say its stereotypical for a med school interview and if you review your application and why you want to go to school there you should just fine. I would suggest signing up for a mock interview if possible
Is there an accepted students group?

congrats! when were you complete?
Thank you! I was complete in early August. My LM is 71.7 if that helps for reference idk
When are they scheduling for interviews?
The dates I have to pick from were times on Tuesday and Wednesday the 21st and 22nd of February. Those were the only two options for me.

Thanks! I did not reach out to them prior to receiving it. I was complete mid-august.
does anyone have any idea about how class schedules are structured? since there are no lectures, how often are classes and are they everyday etc.
I have a friend at the school and she said mandatory attendance discussions are every day 8 or 9 am (I don't remember) to 12 pm, then nothing after that. And she really seems to like how it's set up since you get to know your entire class (you basically rotate groups) and everyone helps each other understand the materials. I found the 2023-2024 academic calendar on their website too if that's interesting but it doesn't answer your question: Year 1 & 2 Academic Year Calendars | Boonshoft School of Medicine | Wright State University
I feel like those discussions might be M-Th, since Friday is not exactly part of that block, it's clinical medicine, so could be simulated clinic time w different hours.
Thank you!
II this afternoon! Complete 8/24, makes my week a lot better considering I was WLed yesterday at my top choice 🙂
People who are on the WL, how has your cycle been?
Are you still waiting for this school or have you moved on?

Are their exams NBME style?
what is nbme? is this the exam that’s the same nationally (aside from step)?

Yes, that is my understanding. Profs write questions in NBME style.
also curious about this. Is wright state still sending out interview invites?
Also wondering. I haven’t sent a follow up because their application confirmation was adamant that they will update us as soon as they make decisions

Thanks for this!
like they will interview through april or will end the last week of march and be completely done by april first? (so do we have 9 weeks to panic or 5 weeks lol)
the way I understood it was we have 5 weeks to panic. Well, 4 now.
II invite today! IS Complete early August/Late July
Congrats! May I ask what dates are available?
3/14 and 3/15 🙂

They gave a hint of where I’d be on the waitlist in the original email but they said out which tier you are in April
jjll
Full Member
Hm my email didn’t say anything about a tier… do you mind me asking where the hint was?
jjll
Full Member
Did it specify where you were on the alternate list? Someone said their email talked about tiers but mine didn’t
Nope, just said they would have a better idea of how many spots were still available by April 15, then they would communicate my status in the waitlist

Also just WL, but mine didn't give a date in April. But hinted to where I'd be in the list.

That’s what mine said too

Mine said they expect me to be “very high on the alternate list”. It looks like in previous years you’re either in top third, middle third, or bottom third.

That’s what mine said. Did they say they would follow up with your exact position?

I don’t believe they say exact positions, just what third you’re in. I didn’t get a follow up like that but based on previous years it comes in thirds
I got WL back in September. April 15 is what they said as well in terms of where I am on the list. I believe it goes by thirds. Based on last years thread, they made it to the middle third of the list.
