EnMed interviews are separate and in-person. The interview page says you also need to be "approved" by A&M for admissibility, but as far as I know you don't also interview with A&M interviewers.

Many also apply to regular A&M and those interviews are via Zoom.
You could be admitted to one and not the other.
complete date?

EnMed had 2 interviews last year, one in person and one with A&M online.
The expectation was that if EnMed offered an admission A&M would no longer consider them but if they didn't A&M would now be the one considering them.
Early June!

Late but +1 II to EnMed!
IS ORM nontrad, 3.7/518
(Complete 8/11; II received 8/21)
I actually just attended this interview yesterday 8/28 and loved it. Facility/program all super cool and faculty were so nice!
They also confirmed that EnMed interviews pull double duty for IS TMDSAS applicants, in that the interviews screen for both EnMed and regular MD track. If EnMed does not accept an IS interviewee, the application automatically gets passed on to TAMU regular MD to consider for admission, no additional interview required.

Thanks for providing this explanation of how they consider applicants to both EnMed and MD
Last year they had two separate days of interviews (in person for EnMed and online for A&M). Do they no longer have two separate days?
Thank you so much for sharing!

From what I understood, no
I spoke to students interviewing this cycle and they said that Monday is a day filled with info about the school and Thursday is the actual interview day.
Yeah the interview days can be Tuesday or Thursday.

This might be a silly question but does anyone know or have an idea of how long after the interviews, do the admissions convene together to discuss the candidates again?
It's not very predictable from school to school, and also remember that no offers of admission can be made until October 15th at the earliest.
TMDSAS schools do not have a rolling admissions process like many AMCAS schools do, and only a fraction of the offers (about 15%) are made earlier than our Match Day in February.

Very conversational and easygoing!! Just make sure to know your application inside and out!
probably not a bad sign but more likely a clerical error/new employee sent out batch of emails to the wrong list/that sort of thing.
Hope it gets figured out soon
I'm so sorry, was it regular MD or EnMed interview? You can PM me if you don't want to say more on the public threads
Felt the worst about my A&M interview and ended up being fine. Had a similar experience with interviewer.
+1 IS Interview Received 9/12!
+1 OOS II. LM 76. Super suprised about this one. Apparently only Texas schools like me🙂
It's a long day of different things and it's an in-person interview. I don't believe EnMed uses MMI format.

Does anyone know if A&M will let you know if they will not be inviting you to an interview? Or do schools only reply if they are interviewing you.
In my experience as a reapplicant, A&M only let me know that I did not receive an II when the cycle was coming to an end

Did anyone send post-II thank you letters to your interviewers? Waiting on Admissions to hear back about this but if y'all know the answer, that would be great.
If y'all have sent letters (I'm just not sure if some schools have a policy against thank you letters, which is why I ask), did you direct it to the Admissions Office or directly contact your interviewers?

I also emailed admissions to ask what the protocol was but did not hear back. I had the email address of one of my interviewers, so I sent it directly. My other interviewer was a student and I did not get his email, so I had no means to send it to him. I uploaded both letters on the portal as "Additional Documents" just in case.

my app was complete 6/21 and no word. do you think there's still a chance of an II?
Definitely, keep the spirits up!
How sure are you? Would you change your mind if another school interviewed you between now and January?
Usually people wait until late October to see if they got an early pre-match and if not, you can send the LOI.
If I am extremely sure I want to attend one school could I send an earlier letter of intent?
The school knows if you received multiple interviews in Texas.
If someone received only one interview and they are pushing for prematch the school wouldnt care but if they received several interviews and writing to one school, they might consider it.
If someone interviewed at 4 schools and they write 4 letters, the schools will find out. Some of the administrators will have private channels with other admins and they trade stories.

Is A&M prematch heavy like UTMB or no? Sorry if this was already answered earlier I couldn't find the info haha
I think last year they started giving out decisions on the Monday following 10/15.
They said no one would hear back before 10/16
Is today the day? Hmmmmm
Last year they started sending pre-matches out today, so I guess we will see.

what is a pre match and does it effect non-TMDAS ENMED applicants?
Advertisement - Members don't see this ad
Essentially its a non-binding offer of admission. IIRC pre-matches are only made to Texas residents, not sure about ENMED though.
It does not affect non-TX resident enmed applicants. A pre-match offer is an acceptance before Match Day (in February), which only TX residents participate in.
You are insane. Congratulations!just got the pre-match call!! so excited
