Did you guys leave a voicemail to confirm your interviews? I hate leaving messages for important stuff 

So....has anyone else been able to get ahold of someone in admissions to verify that they got your interview confirmation? I left a voicemail the day I got the invite to "confirm" my interview, but I haven't been able to talk to anyone to make sure they got the voicemail. I even emailed Yolanda, but no response.![]()
Same here. One more week to go...I haven't gotten ahold of anyone either. I'm just really hoping they got my message.
I have the same time!!Is anyone else starting to get really nervous?
My interview is the 15th at 3:25. Does anyone else have the same time?
Have you guys done much preparation for the interview? Back when I thought it was going to be a traditional interview, I was ready to practice tons, but now I feel totally unprepared.![]()
Does anybody know what will be involved in the luncheon? Is it just a lunch with other applicants, question and answer session, etc.?
just wanted to say good luck to everyone tomorrow and saturday! my interviews at 11:25am!!! AHH!!
If you are a dude, I think you were in my tour group. 🙂I was one of the early interviews too. The MMIs aren't too bad and in my opinion there's not quite enough time to say what you want, so I recommend trying to be concise 😛 good luck everyone!
ATX00 - how did the early/first time slot go? I know I was mentally exhausted by the time I got out!
I would just like to say that I agree with a similar thread (I think about VMRCM's MMI) that it is more stressful than the traditional interview. I do agree that it is probably more fair/objective, but I definitely didn't think it was "FUN" (as it was referred to during the pre-interview orientation!!) 😛
I think going first was probably fine. If anything, maybe there's some benefit to going when the interviewers are still really fresh and not sick of hearing the same thing a million times. But to be perfectly honest, I have absolutely no clue how I did. I wish I could have watched some other people do it just so I'd have something to compare myself to, lol. 😳ATX00 - how did the early/first time slot go?

I agree. Some of the interviewers were totally straight-faced throughout, and gave off a vibe of "I AM JUDGING YOU EVERY SECOND!" ... and I know they were all technically judging us, but some of them were a lot friendlier about it than others.i totally agree. it was stressful. i just wish we had more time to look over the situations sometimes all i could do was read it over once or twice and fully understand what was going on and then it was time to go in. not to mention the complete BLANK expressions on the interviewers which were no help at all. i have no idea what they thought about my answers but i think thats the whole point lol!

Y'all got a handout of all the situations they'd be talking about prior?

Really! I felt the same way. I also felt a little cheated since the first station I went to, I didn't hear them say we could look since I was just getting seated and they had kind of whispered it from across the room, so I wasn't able to read the whole thing before going in. For a few others, I wrote down notes but never referred to them. I think I took the eye contact a little too far and did an eye-to-eye deathlock for six minutes.YES! I felt the same way. We only had enough time to understand the situation, and no time to think about it. Forget making notes on that paper!!!
I just wanted to say congrats to everyone who interviewed over the weekend! does anyone know when we're supposed to hear the results by? Is it March like it has been in the past? Personally that seems like an eternity from now.
Are you guys writing thank you notes?
I wasn't planning to because of the whole MMI setup, but after that email, I feel like I better do it. It seems pretty silly to me to write 12 identical, impersonal notes, but if everyone else is doing it... 🙄
I wasn't planning to, either. I figured it wouldn't mean much if their names weren't even on there, and I have to admit that I don't remember any of the names. 😳
They said they're shooting for it, but I wouldn't hold my breath to be honest.Does anyone think we will find out earlier this year because interviews were finished so much sooner?
Focusing is definitely hard right now, but it probably will be even harder after we're accepted or rejected!
Oh gosh, I momentarily forgot about that possibility. You win. That must be the worst by far!...and even HARDER if we are waitlisted! I was waitlisted last year, and the extended waiting period is the worst!
