Hi, do you guys think it's still worth it to submit a secondary here? I got so swamped and this one fell by the wayside... reviewing the thread from last year it seems like people who submitted in August or later didn't hear back until Feb/March and most of them were Rs. It seems like Dartmouth is a school that really favors early (July) submissions!

If that's the case, then I'm cooked here. I just submitted recently but I figure you can give it a chance too. Always worth a shot

 

[opaqueglass]

this could be my fault but i swear i never got the email for my secondary... i'm a reapplicant so i logged in yesterday with the same account from last year and it turns out my secondary has been available this whole time (since like 5 weeks ago). when i submit it, should I write something in the additional info section about it or are they typically more flexible with this kind of stuff?

Does anyone know if interviews are open or closed file?

They are open file

[mountaingoat23]

They are open file

It is up to the interviewer 🙂 Some of them might have read your file before the interview and some might have not. If they don't then they will review in detail after the interview.

Upcoming information sessions. They talk about both the school and the admissions process, leaving a half hour for Q&A.

Wednesday, June 25, 2025, 7 PM-8 PM Eastern: Welcome! You are invited to join a webinar: Geisel SOM at Dartmouth Info Session. After registering, you will receive a confirmation email about joining the webinar.

Do you know if there will be any more of these coming up? Or where to look to find them?

Any advice for the one on one interviews or the group task session?

I believe it’s generally frowned upon to ask school specific interview questions as it’s not fair to people who may not have access to this forum or to people who have already interviewed

ive never heard that, heres a link to some of the interview questions: https://www.studentdoctor.net/schoo...mmary/DMS/dartmouth-geisel-school-of-medicine

Nah, its only bad if you asking for specific questions. Someone in a different thread was asking for any specific difficult or screwball questions which obviously shouldn't be shared ahead of time. If you are asking for advice or a general feel it is fine. As above, usually check the interviews forum.

I cannot believe I am writing this, but this is my first MD II of the cycle! OOS. Submitted and Complete 7/14.

 

[5pinalc0rd]

Do we think that a 9/18 interview could get a decision on October 15? Or is that a little early?

You could. Based on last year's thread, some people who interviewed Aug/early Sep started hearing back on the 15th.

Is there anyone back from their interview yet? Mine is coming up and I'm really nervous.

It was so chill, don’t sweat. Group exercise is pretty fun and the two one-on-one interviews were also so laid back and conversational. As long as you have an answer for why medicine and tell me about yourself, you’re golden.

 

[PawneeGoddess1]

+1 II OOS on 9/30! Submitted 7/7 and LM score 78.8

Geisel is geniunely one of my favorite schools and I was getting worried since I haven't heard back, so if anyone is on the same boat - there is still hope!!

On a seperate note, it looks like my portal still hasn't updated and I cant see the interview tab yet. Did that happen to anyone else?

 

[polymerization]

Anyone interviewing today?

Huge congrats! As a fellow OOS applicant, what's your LM if you don't mind me asking?

 

[polymerization]

OOS II complete 7/13

I was really hoping after they'd interviewed me yesterday that there would be no reason for them to continue looking, but congratulations!!!

You're going to love this place! They go out of their way to really try to reassure you. I came out of my interview with a very positive impression of the faculty and staff.

Huge congrats! As a fellow OOS applicant, what's your LM if you don't mind me asking?

Thank you! LM 77

Did they email you or did you have to check your portal? I've heard conflicting rumors about whether or not they send emails for interview invites...
