is it true that Jeff averages multiple MCAT scores? Saw this in a thread from a few years ago
Yes I heard abt this during an open house. They said they use it for initial scoring, so not sure if it matters once you have the II. I was told it’s not a make or break though and they still view applications holistically.

Dang, I can now see why I haven’t gotten an interview.

Interviewing here in January. What was everyone's interview experience like? How do you recommend preparing?
Just want to confirm, but for sending update letters, do I email a PDF to admissions? I can't find anything on their website about them.
Or maybe it's just too late for me period, lolol.

Yes email a pdf to [email protected]. It’s not too late shoot your shot!

Do they email more details about interview closer to date?
It's hard to tell at this point. All they've signed is a non-binding letter of intent. A bunch of negotiations and regulatory approvals need to happen first, and I wouldn't be surprised if the medical education pieces still need to be hashed out.
Based on the wording in the press releases so far, it sounds like rotations at LHVN will be available to, but not required for, SKMC medical students.

To an extent you do. You'll find out the faculty interviewer name before lunch and might interview right after lunch or right after the person that interviews after lunch.
You won't know the student name ahead of time but that's blinded and conversational anyway.

Does anyone know if there's a Class of 2028 Facebook group yet?

Have you gotten any email confirmation from them that they received your update letter(s)? I sent one months ago and another one recently, and I haven't received any email. 🤔
I got an automated reply within a few min but nothing directly from admissions

I thought that you have to go into the portal & check under communications or smth to see if they received it.

Ok I just checked. I received confirmation of my second update letter but not my first. So at least I know that info is there, thank you!

The "info for admitted applicants" page has the 2027 facebook group still up, seems like it hasn't been updated since last cycle. Also wondering when the 2028 group page will open...
Time to neurotically start assessing what not getting the maintenance email means for me

okay kind of dumb question but did you guys like shake hands with the interviewers??? Idk how life works post covid 😭
Yes do it
wear a mask when you can, you can def eat outside (there’s lots of benches near the library) and if you’re super worried, just done volunteer for like a week and test a few times.
this is just advice from someone who works adjacent to the jeff area so idk how the interview is
ps i am pretty sure masking is mandatory for jeff clinical staff again so i don’t think it will be weird if you wear a mask. you could even relate it to your volunteer work (“i’m being extra cautious because i work with kids that are immunocompromised”)

fair warning the interview has a group lunch inside a restaurant. maybe you'd be able to eat it outside but it's buffet style. if you are still concerned I'd email admissions
