Open file and no notes. All the faculty and interviewers truly try to make it a fun and relaxing interview day. As long as you know your application and yourself, there will be plenty to talk about!

All those secondaries become a blur after a period of time
I feel this on a spiritual level after submitting over 50 secondaries.

Thank you so much, you dont know how much those three sentences did to turn down the chaos that is my brain right now
Interviewed back in August, and I know its the neuroticism that's killing me till match day, but every day that goes on I just feel more and more pessimistic about my chances of getting in: Was it something I said in my interview? My interview could've gone much better. Is my writing really poor? Just so many things in my head getting to me. Accepted to the Caribbean and some other schools, but NEED Texas.
"some other schools" - do you mean DO schools? Going to those would be >>>>> than to the Caribbean.
Texas Tech Lubbock would accept a letter from you telling all the things you like about it, but don't say you "need" to go there

It was a lot of fun! It was very informative and we got to see a lot of the school. It honestly impressed me more than I was expecting so if you're able to go I highly recommend it!
What interview dates are there?
IS II, complete 7/13, LM 74
January 17 was the only one available (for me).

Hi everyone! I interviewed on 11/6, but I’ve noticed that Texas Tech still hasn’t appeared on my rankings yet. Has it shown up for anyone else who interviewed on or after that date?

Is it fair to say if it showed up on TMDSAS to rank = no prematch?
Anyone who interviewed will have it show up on the portal.
If you are offered acceptance before match day (prematch) you will get an email with the offer
MSI here: most frequently hear it called “ The HSC.” I call it the SOM (like it’s a word), but after seeing the weird looks people give me when say it during tours, I don’t think the world is ready for that one yet 😌

Hello, I applied ED to Tech. I submitted my ISII back in June and had my interview in mid-august. Was not accepted as ED and placed in regular pool on October 1st. Have not heard from Tech since. LM of 68. Should I send a letter of interest or something else? The waiting has been brutal.
At this point @Saltyplacebo if you have something new to add send it now, and check to be sure all the schools where you interviewed are showing up on your Match ranking list on your TMDSAS portal. Save your rank list before January 31.
If you only had 1 interview, still rank it #1.
Those who get the "No Match" message on Match Day still have a chance to come in from a WL

Is canceling a preview day bad? Would it affect how the applicant is viewed?

No, but it is better to let them know you can’t make it so they won’t go looking for you that day. Shows maturity & consideration too
Has anyone who interviewed 12/18 been able to rank yet on TMDSAS?
Contact the school directly and ask them to update your info on the portal so you can rank them
It took a very long time before it became available for my cohort. They did eventually put it in. I would imagine that they would be quicker with yours since the deadline to rank is the 31st.

Same here. It took about a month and a half for my cohort.

does anyone know if TT Lubbock accepts update letters or letters of interest? i dont think i see a document upload section on the portal
If you have something to say to them send it soon, their regular admission address is fine. Choose a good title for your email to identify yourself and your reason
This is my top choice school and I interviewed pretty early on in the cycle and sent an LOI after my preview day back in September. Haven't gotten a prematch and no new updates that I really have. Should I just wait for match day or send in another update if that would help since its been silent for months now.
Anything new to add since your first LOI? You can send another if you really want, but also you can just wait for Match
Yeah nothing new to add, I will probably just wait till match. I just hope the school didn't forget about me haha
I interviewed at the beginning of December, and TT Lubbock has now popped onto my ranking list (happened sometime between 1/14 and now)!
Starting the IS pre-II R chain…

Hi y'all! Interviewed 10/25 and haven't prematched! I already sent a letter of intent and update letter in late November, but having since attended preview day, I have a lot more insight on the character of the school/appreciation for student support and the genuine feeling of contentment/family I feel from interacting with faculty/MS2s. I truly believe I would be happy and successful at this institution- Is this worth including in another follow up letter of intent, or will that be detrimental? Other than that, I don't have any application updates other than submitting an abstract/poster for an upcoming conference.
One LOI is enough, check your rank list and be sure you placed this school #1
