Adcoms, have you ever wanted to interview someone just via SDN behavior?

This forum made possible through the generous support of SDN members, donors, and sponsors. Thank you.

Have yall ever known enough about an applicant thru posts (Stat sigs, WAMC, general discussions, etc.) and you liked an online persona enough that you wanted to interview them in person?

I guess when typing this out it sounds like online dating, just med school edition.


if you have and its me you want to interview, PM for AAMC ID

I have wanted to meet some SDN "Personalities," but not because I thought they were ideal candidates.

There have been quite a few of my favorite SDNers who I would have loved to interview, and have as students.

Follow up question: Have you ever come across applications/interviewed anyone you were previously familiar with via contact on SDN? For instance, you recognized them via their stats, ECs, stories, etc. I'm certain it's highly unlikely given how many apps you guys look at, but it would be a pretty funny connection.

I think this question has been asked elsewhere before, to which adcoms replied: nope. Too many students to tell. Only in extraordinary cases like once in a decade sort of thing
 
If I was an adcom I would want to interview calipremed and the guy who started studying step 1 in college already. Not necessarily admit but interview them.
One of the programs I used to study the MCAT has a USMLE program as well and i forgot to turn off auto renewal and already spent the $250...so guess what your boy is doing in his spare time for funzies....
 
I'm honestly down to meet meme lord (unsure if its now Mr. Dr. Prof. Patrick) He's always encouraging others and trying to be as helpful as possible. Prob a good guy lol
Thanks, mom!

No, my mother doesn’t really provide supportive or kind words.

Thank you, SDNer! I have already arranged several SDN meet ups (Boston squad just got some Thai food)! Please let me know if you live in Ann Arbor or Cleveland and we will get some chow!
 
No, this is Patrick.

The amount of fire threads this week! I love it. Lots of good vibes on SDN.
