Just for transparency, from that "first round" of interview invites, there were something like 280 students present at our info session. MSAR says they interview around 350 students total. It may be that they have already selected their "main pool" of interviewees, and are using this later info session to gauge what other II's to give out. This is just speculation tho.

i agree with this. My guess is that they will use the path prep session to gauge which students actually are interested. From that point they decide. That’s why ours isn’t “mandatory” but the previous one was. It could also be because they r still working out the kinks in the interview process since the last group had some issues with scheduling. That’s just my guess tho.

just an info session but people were dressed in suits

As in something I could theoretically attend while a passenger in a vehicle as long as I’m dressed correctly 😂

 

[That Guy 20125]

How do they gauge interest? Do you ask questions??

 

[HeyBabyBoy72]

Welp x 2 lol

Welp x3

 

[embaddie]

Do they gauge interest just by seeing if you show up to the session?

 

[ILoveNeedles]

I’m curious what stats people have who received this message if it is gauging interest for an interview vs a program to help increase candidacy

I am LM 69, MCAT 50x, sGPA 3.9x, cGPA 3.8x
I feel they are probably just gauging interest considering how different the first wave of emails are and our email lol.. They didn't even make it clear that the Zoom was required for an II.

Oh oh, my bad. I read that happened to a few other people in this thread too, not sure what ended up happening after though

 

[futuremddoc2028]

They haven’t sent me one so I’m guessing they rescheduled me

 

[IndilEruvanda]

Had my interview at NSU last week, can't give any details (confidentiality agreement) but what I can tell you is that it was a really nice experience. All my anxiety beforehand was completely unnecessary. I felt like they truly wanted you to succeed and they tried really hard to make you feel comfortable throughout the process! So if you're currently stressing out for your upcoming interview here, please take a deep breath and relax, you will do amazing and have a great experience!

 

[cehapp]

Does anyone know if they accept pre-II update letters?

 

[fla227]

Hopefully they just come in waves, there were like 190 of us and only two staff members in admissions are sending them out so I have hope..

[dracotarg]

Has anyone with AAMC FAP received the invitation to the pathway Prep or an II?

I wonder if there is a technical error with the application processing for the AAMC FAP applicants because we haven't paid

yes i have fap

 

[deleted1167652]

did anyone else receive an email “Tips to Become a MD Student in an Hour?”

I didn’t even submit a secondary here. so I’m assuming I’m just on an email list?

 

[one_masterpiece]

Does anybody know if they accept post-II update letters to their email? I cannot remember what they said.

 

[Victor14!]

Just received the path prep invite! Does this mean interview or not quite yet? I’m seeing a lot of conflicting info on this thread. Would love to go to NSU!

It doesn't mean an interview but your chances of getting one after attending are higher! Path prep is basically required for you to complete to even be considered for an interview (aside from the first path prep session which invited applicants to an interview simultaneously)

To add, I attended the optional one (second round) and got an II. But curious to see if anyone who attended still hasn’t gotten an interview invite.

hey everyone, i'm wondering if it's too late to apply to this school? is it worth it?

 

[J29X]

+2 -- don't know why I'm still expecting it lol

 

[finnster]

Why do they wait till February for 1st round of acceptances?

they have a really small admissions office lol they probably need a minute to get thru the apps

I just got the II after attending that pathway prep. On that note though, how are we supposed to attach a headshot photo to our app when our app isn't accessible? When I click the link, it would just allow me to basically start the secondary over again. Thanks in advance for any help!

 

[Gormeh Sabzi]

I can't exactly remember if they said they accepted update letters post-interview. Does anyone else who interviewed remember? And if so, we just email them the letter correct?

If I remember correctly, they said we could and encouraged us to do so. We just email them to the admissions regarding any updates

I applied here around early November and it was the only school I got into lol
