I'd love to hear anyone's experience with the dual MD/Master's interview! I did the bioengineering one, but I'm sure any MD/Master's interview experiences would be helpful to share. Or, perhaps the interviews are no different than regular MD ones - regardless, any info would be appreciated 🙂

One faculty and one student interview. Q&A session with med students as well( which supposedly don't count towards admissions, but it doesn't hurt to ask questions and leave a good impression). I was super nervous leading up to it but they were very conversational. Def a low-stress interview. If you get an invite, they already like you, you just gotta show them that you are who you say you were in ur application. Be authentic and you'll be alright(I'm guessing lol, can't say for certain if they liked me lol)
+1 to the above response. The interview is open-file, so admissions will send you the names of your interviewers along with the Zoom links, and your interviewers go in having read your application. It wouldn't hurt to brainstorm questions specific to your interviewer or their line of work especially if it aligns with your app or interest since there will most likely be time for a few quick questions at the end! Good luck!

Is Maryland moving slow this year? I was complete 8/6, have gotten two II from top 10 schools, and its been dead silent from UMaryland.
I bring up the 2 II bc im kinda blown maryland is ghosting me. My stats are good for t10 and IM A MARYLAND RESIDENT. Maryland denied me last cycle so i was ready to prove myself this time around 🙁(

they told me at my interview that it takes 4-6 weeks for them to release your decision, so it's not quite time yet! hang in there

Hey, I have my interview this week and nervous!! Can anybody say a little about what their interviews were like?

You interviewed 10/28, right? Any news yet? I was the week after you so this week will be 4 weeks since interviewing. Fingers crossed for both of us!
I interviewed 10/28 as well, no news yet. From previous years it seems that late October and early November interviewers heard back around mid December!

Yes, I did. I was hoping to hear this week bc people from the week before (10/21 and 10/26) seem to have heard back last week. Good luck!!

Someone in last year’s thread mentioned that "adcom meetings are on Mondays, calls happen Monday/Tuesday, and official emails go out on Wednesday." I’m not sure how accurate that is, but based on when people received decisions, it seems to align (with some outliers of course). not that it really matters, but im guessing lots of ppl are gonna hear back early in the week.
