I found a ton of MMI questions online and common interview questions. I had friends and family ask me questions over a period of a few weeks before my interview. I also recorded myself answering questions and tried to reduce “ums” and other filler words.
To be clear I haven’t had an II from this school yet, but I do have an acceptance from the school I interviewed at, so I feel like my interview prep helped. Good luck! You’ve got this!

410 interviews over a weekend is insane
Anyone know how many admission offers are given (or the post-II rate)?
Did some digging around, and found this from last cycle towards the end:
Seems like a ~50% post-II rate.
Seems like a ~50% post-II rate.
Seems like interview invites are overwhelmingly OOS right now? Is that a historic trend with Wayne State.
They're only interviewing 1,400 this year? This is 100 less than last year.
On msar it said they did 1510 interviews last year

Damn, it was ~60% in the 2020-2021 cycle.

I mean it also depends on OOS or IS acceptance rates. We just know they give those interviews but we don't know if its OOS or IS.

IS in 2021: 369 admission offers from 612 IIs.
OOS in 2021: 353 admission offers from 572 IIs.
The acceptance rates between OOS and IS used to be pretty similar, so they were likely the same last year too.
They only interviewed 1200 back then? Crazy an additional 200
Congrats! That is exciting.

Silence with a complete email on July 16th
I thought schools weren’t allowed to send any acceptances until after October 15?

Same, does anyone have any information on MMIs specifically? Do they give you all the questions beforehand to write down and then put you in the breakout rooms, or do you hear/ see the question for the first time in the breakout room? Are there any role playing scenarios, or just discussion- based?
Is there any more info from people who already interviewed?

Complete 7/6 haven't heard anything , taking this as a soft reject
I've talked to a couple current med students from all different years that said they didn't get an II until November/December so I wouldn't give up hope yet!
Do u recall whether they were IS or OOS applicants 😅?
One OOS one Canadian, and my friend who didn't end up going there was IS (and a Wayne undergrad) and didn't get anything until like December

Can anyone please provide insight on whether the interview was open or closed file? Also, did they throw any crazy questions?

Are they still asking technical questions like "Explain the COVID vaccine" or "What journals do you read?"

Think it depends on your interviewer. Mine did not ask.

For the people who have interviewed already, how are people sending thank you notes? Are you sending a note to the student interviewers as well? And the interviewers for the MMI portion?

I wrote one email and cc's the student and faculty interviewers but since I didn't have the emails of my MMI interviewers, I just asked the admissions committee to forward my email
I decided to apply a little later than I'd like and got my secondary this week. If I submit secondary this coming Monday, will I still have a chance? Or is it way too late in the cycle to apply? - Ty in advance
Just do it!
