are we supposed to send thank you letters here? I know it’s an MMI so not too sure how that would work
I don't have an II here, but I have done two MMIs and I asked those schools what is the best way to say thank you (both said do not write thank yous for each MMI person haha) so I just wrote a general thank you letter to everyone and mentioned them in it! usually there will be an admissions person or director that starts or ends the interview, so I also wrote ab them in the letter to thank them. But you could always ask during the Q&A portion of your interview too!

Hello Everyone,

I am wondering if any current students know if the clinical year is Duke Pass/Fail unranked.

I've seen information online saying it is still graded P/HP/Honors but I thought the entire curriculum was P/F unranked as per surgery clerkship student guidebook I saw on their website and another SDN thread.

Please let me know. Thank you!

Warmly,

Clinical year is Pass/Fail. There is no ranking.

Duke enables you to find the best version of yourself, giving you the latitude to explore career pathways early and often. People are happy here. The faculty are beyond supportive. I feel like I belong.

If you think Duke is a place you'd enjoy attending, submit the secondary. Don't self-select out. Give it your best shot and let the admissions committee decide.

Echoing the best of luck on Duke's interview for you all! Biggest piece of advice I have is to not let an MMI station trip you up, just take a quick breather and move on to the next one. I thought I bombed two stations at mine and it ended up making no difference in hindsight. Admissions is more interested on how you answer the questions and your thought process vs actually getting the "right" answer.

Feel free to @ me if you have Duke specific questions!

I had my regular interview 9/16 and just got an invite for a phone interview for the PCLT! Has anyone else already interviewed and received this invite as well? Should I take it to mean that my interview went well or do they have everyone do two interviews if they apply for it? Maybe too difficult to really know!

Where are we supposed to send thank you letters to? I remember they said something about the admin email but I couldn't find it anywhere
