[wysdoc]

does anybody know whether mstp admission is rolling after interview, or do they reconvene in jan to make final decisions?

best to ask in the physician scientist forum

I meant you received IIs from most of them.

A little late to the party, but received OOS II on 9/19, complete 7/25. Wishing everyone luck!

I recently interviewed with Baylor. One of the prerequisites for Baylor is “Recommended Spanish.” I took 4 years of Spanish in high school, but since it was a while ago, I listed myself as a beginner in language proficiency on the TMDSAS app. Since I didn’t take any Spanish course in my University, is it worth sending an update with this info with my high school transcript?

I don't think you need to, as it isn't a required course. You might want to get a book of medical Spanish phrases though and start brushing up on your Spanish a bit. Almost anywhere in Texas being able to communicate in Spanish on a basic level will be helpful, even if you still need help from more fluent speakers for complex questions & answers.

Temple students are specifically chosen by hand by the dean of student affairs of Temple.

You mean the dean is driven by divine providence.

On a boat with Temple. Yeah, Baylor is intense with course load but we do have fun every now and then. 🙂

Looks like Lake Travis if you ask me. Ah, nothing like a good Lake Travis boat party.

Edit I'm wrong but it still looks like an awesome boat party

 

[MCAThiccy]

Lake belton!

Baylor Temple now owns this waterfall. We considering making a boat ride a tradition for the incoming MS1s! I had a lot of fun today and it was awesome. Definitely rank Baylor first!!!

Lived in Temple for 5 years and loved every minute of it. If you haven't yet, check out Stillhouse Hollow Lake as well!

I'll note this in your application (joking!). I'll check it out. Thank you!

Either option is fine!

Hahaha, call me whatever you like I just want to turn this II into an A!! And I remember you telling me on the TMDSAS thread that you do NOT grant me permission to worry about my Texas apps unless I have no II by the end of October. Well, you were right!!

 

[texasvandy]

Epic thanks dude

Thats Professor Mcathiccy to you. 🙂

 

[j_diggity]

Thats Professor Mcathiccy to you. 🙂

Either option is fine!

Ok I've been wondering and have to ask, is it pronounced "MCAT Hiccy", "MCA-Thiccy," "MCAT Thiccy," or some other variation?

 

[MCAThiccy]

Either option is fine! But Option two is the only one that's correct and that I will accept.

I don't see this option on my interview tab (only uploading a pic of green card if applicable), and I'm interviewing Friday. Should I email? Or is i fine since I think I already submitted a pic with TMDSAS primary?

I would also like to know this, in the same situation.

 

[Upstairs_Syllabus781]

Also, the pre-interview social is not mandatory correct? I would love to attend, but I am currently in Europe and the social does not start until 1 am for me.

No it's not mandatory! I believe just an opportunity to get to know more about the program from current students in a casual setting

 

[sdfwr312]

Interview here felt pretty stressful.

[confusedcurls]

Anyone here know how Baylor feels about pre-interview update letters?

 

[Rite1234]

[swifty1027]

+1 II IS! Complete 6/17. Has anyone had any success with asking for a different interview date than the one they offered?

 

[MCAThiccy]

You do have the option to switch dates. Just email the admissions office or contact them through the portal.

They will only reschedule once and they gave me two alternate dates when I asked.

 

[Skiwizard118]

Sorry if this has already been answered, but is the interview open or closed file?

 

[Neurostate]

Congrats to everyone who received an II. What interview dates are being offered currently?
