On the primary application, do I need to signify anything if I wish to apply to both campuses? I only see Mayo Clinic Alix School of Medicine as an option - will campus preference/selection happen once I receive a secondary?

It has historically been done through the secondary.

[Yoshi&Cookies]

+1 pre-II hold, LM 69, complete date 7/30

 

[popppp]

+1 pre-II hold, LM 69, complete date 7/30

same. i just assume this is a soft-R

 

[huntersthompson7]

+1 OOS pre-II R, LM 76, complete 7/16. For all who got pre-II holds, it could be worse!

 

[vssmedapp]

OOS Pre-II R, 09/02. First of the cycle. I laughed when I opened the email, but perhaps I'm crying internally. In all honesty, I can't tell....

 

[oolongtealover]

+1 OOS, Pre-II Hold, Complete 7/28. Going to take it as a soft-R, though I checked last years thread and it looks like some people were interviewed from the hold list!

 

[deleted1216180]

+1 OOS pre-II hold, complete 7/20, LM 76

From what I've heard, this is basically a soft R so I'll take it as is!

 

[Polyketide]

+1 OOS pre-II R. Complete 7/8

 

[kemkeys]

My interview is later this month. LM 79 and have a prob 10-15th percentile MCAT score, but feeling very excited about this opportunity. Any tips or advice? 🙂

How do you have a low MCAT and high LM?

 

[kemkeys]

I should clarify - 10 to 15th percentile for Mayo...... 516

Ah ok lol. As for the interview, approach it like any other - general preparedness for a variety of questions. They clearly believe the rest of your application more than compensates for your MCAT, so emphasize what makes you so interesting.

 

[Comradesam]

+1 OOS II, Complete on 08/12

 

[lolzlolzloz]

for the welcome session on the week of Monday, should we wear our interview attire (suit) or what is the attire? Thanks 🙂

In the email with the link, they said business professional for the welcome sessions and the interviews. It’s casual for the info session with current students on Sunday

 

[greenhondacivic]

+1 OOS II, I CAN'T BELIEVE IT!!! Submitted 7/18!!

 

[imbadatwritingessaysahhhh]

How do you have a low MCAT and high LM?

Yeah... the replier deleted their comment but it's impossible to get a LM score of 79 with a 516 MCAT, even with a 4.0 GPA (that corresponds to LM of 75)!

when i accidentally thought the percent up top was the score...my b, LM of 75 LOL

 

[imbadatwritingessaysahhhh]

No worries!!! LM of 75 is super impressive, congratulations! 🙂

just to be clear: since our interviews are for mayo AZ, AZ is the only campus we're being considered for for admission, right?

basically. they said in rare cases you might get assigned to another campus that you listed (I'm guessing like if the numbers don't line up at the end of the cycle or something)
Edit: I listed AZ as my first choice so maybe this is different if it was your second choice and you still got an interview here (?)

I got an interview at AZ, which was my first choice, so I thought I was only being considered for the AZ campus. But at the info session they still had a slide that said they'll do their best to match you with the campus you want, so I am just confused haha

hmm yeah at the info session I'm pretty sure they said it is very very unlikely you'd be matched elsewhere. But yeah, it's still possible

how were the interview vibes?

 

[greenhondacivic]

how were the interview vibes?

my interviewers were extremely kind!! my first interviewer asked me some proper questions about my non-MME experiences, and the second interview was closer to having a flowing conversation. best of luck!! 🙂

 

[weatherball101]

OOS II hold, better luck next time 🥀
