I’m not sure when interview invites are going out, but generally our first week of interviews is in the first half of August. So should be soon! 🙂

What is your most/least favorite thing about A&Ms medical school🙂
Click to expand...
Most favorite: the people and the opportunities. I can’t speak highly enough of all of the staff, faculty, professors, and students. They all truly want to see you succeed - academically and personally.

Least favorite: lectures could align more with NBME but I still passed STEP1 with little stress (school gave us great support during dedicated) and I think they’re also actively working on aligning more with NBME.
 
For those that received an II, through what time period does the interview last, I can't seem to find that info anywhere? I may have some conflicts with the dates provided thus far depending on the time it's held.

Do you mean like what hours of the day or what dates?

It is best not to plan other things on an interview day. Most interviews are all day long.

I meant the time, so 8-10am for example.

There’s is actually really short. They have an orientation on a separate day in the morning from 8-11 I believe and then the interview itself is for two hours around midday another day
 
I need help to decide if I should submit my secondaries. It’s been more than a month since I received the secondary invite but was waiting for fee waiver. I won’t get fee waiver but still interested in the school. Is it worth submitting after more than 7 weeks?

Yes, they don’t have a firm deadline like some schools so it’s not too late.
 
Hello! For anyone who has already done an EnMed interview, what kind of things should we bring to the interview? Should I bring my laptop or a notebook? Thanks in advance 🙂

They'll give you a folder with some blank sheets to take notes (pen provided too!). You won't need a notebook, and definitely not a laptop.

Best of Luck!!!!!!!!
 
Could someone please give me some perspective. I was verified on 08/12 and have received secondaries from every TX school except A&M. I got all of them the next day essentially. I have my secondary ready to submit but radio silence. Kind of freaking out!! Especially bc I would need to request a fee waiver which would take even longer. LM:70

don't freak out, the very first interviews just went out Aug 8 so you have time.
 
Has anyone interviewed here yet? If so how was it and what was your impression of the school?!
 
Any idea when typically the second rounds of II will be sent out? I submitted my secondary 05 AUG, since I didnt get verified like the last week of July, and got my secondary shortly after.

In the second post I update the days that people get interviews from all the Texas schools.
A&M started inviting in August, and has sent out invitations on 4 days so far that we've heard of from your co-applicants

Thank you but it seems like everyone has gotten their secondaries soon after being verified. It's been two weeks now. Would it be appropriate to call (preferably) or email admissions to confirm my status?

sure, plan what you want to say if you call, but an email creates a paper trail for you.
 
Im going to the EnMed in person interview and I was wondering if there was place to store my suitcase since I am trying to fly back home that night, would that be possible?

If you flew in the night before the hotel will hold it for you behind the front desk even after you check out. If your connection is really tight you can bring it to the interview

Not sure about A&M specifically, but I interviewed at another medical school and they let me keep my belongings in their office and it was a small interview cohort.

Yes! They let me store my suitcase in a 1st floor office in the EnMed building. I went straight from the interview to the airport. I had a 7pm flight and made it with plenty of time as the interview day ends around 4:30.
 
For the second prompt, do you answer it with the specific values in mind or can you use it more as a why this school prompt? I have a decent why tamu essay that aligns with the school's mission but it doesn't really incorporate the values

It’s always best to answer the question the way they ask it. Don’t feel the need to list every single one of their values but try to tie in at least one.
 
If anybody has interviewed can you confirm what the day looks like? Is it an asynchronous MMI that we can take any time that day or is it at a specific time? Also since the orientation is held on a separate day, is the day we select on the calendar just the MMI itself?

Not sure what you mean by acting or non-acting, but yes you are able to write during the MMI -- on interview day they give you a little folder with some extra pages to write notes on. Good luck!
