To anyone who interviewed around the same time as I did (Oct 3): did they say when we would hear back? I don't remember if they did lol

I interviewed a little before you so we would have been in different info sessions, but I remember Dean Ratts saying everyone will hear back by March 6th at the very latest -- I didn't hear her specifically mention a december release like in the past though, did anyone hear the admissions team mention that they are still doing that? I don't think the way she said it precluded a potential december release date, but just curious either way
 
I'm trying to submit my WashU secondary (MD), but the text boxes are greyed out, and the cursor turns into a 🚫 when I try to click into the boxes. Has anyone else come across this problem?

Has it been more than 2 weeks since you received the secondary? WashU required you to submit 2 weeks after being invited to complete the secondary

Unfortunately, it has. I had other obligations that took priority, and I didn't realize I'd be locked out of completing it. Thank you for your response!

i submitted my secondary >2 weeks after receiving it and received an II, so this is probably not the reason

did the secondary submission deadline pass?

It doesn't look like the deadline passed, but I have had the secondary for almost two months. I had to finish and defend my dissertation, so I couldn't write any more secondaries.

It may be worth sending the admissions office an email or giving them a call to ask about it. Congratulations on your dissertation defense!

Crap, I didn’t get it. Might as well head over to CVS to buy sunscreen.

This emoji bug on reposts is annoying!
 
@TheHelper74 if you are using the Tapatalk app for SDN posting, try deleting the app and re-installing it.

If that still doesn't help, try responding to a comment without "quoting" it.
You can address your comment to a specific SDM member by putting the @ symbol before their username, no space after the @
 
I haven't received anything but newsletters so far this cycle. Feelsbadman
I’m really sorry to hear that. I know how uncertain the waiting can be, and totally understand the anxiety.

I would argue that there is still plenty of reason to have hope! We just hit the halfway point in the cycle.

However, if it would help, I would be happy to talk over your app with you in DMs.

You’re collecting interview invites like Thanos collected Infinity Stones. What’s your secret?
 
What kinds of questions should I prepare for Kira? Ethical, MMI, situational, traditional stuff like “tell me about yourself? I feel like I’m going in blind
 
Just had my interviews here and they were pretty relaxed imo!

does anyone know how to get into the deans greeting sessions later?

@thunderlight8 It should be in the same confirmation email you got after you scheduled your interview! Both the student session + dean session.


Quick question: when did/where did you get information about the interviewers for your interview day + times of your interviews?

Found it, thank you!

I got mine early morning (around 7am central) the day before the interview

If I have my interview on Tuesday, do I attend the deans welcome the week prior or attend it on the same day?
 
Very easy with practice included to get you warm. Format is Casper like but not as weird feeling.
For anyone who did the kira portion: is it basically just ethical scenarios? or not necessarily ethical but like conflict resolution and all the other casper stuff. this is my only interview and i really dont wanna mess this up.
