Just finished the Q&A yesterday (2/26) and it was super low-key. Very helpful and informative! Definitely nothing to stress about.
The director interview was super short, probably only 15 minutes or so. He asked me why I was interested in Case and then that was pretty much it.
Thanks for the wishes!
I think the CASPer test went well. We're not allowed to see our scores so who really knows 🤷 But you can look up practice questions and answers on google to get a feel for what the questions are like. I would argue that the main points to be thinking of are: get all the information you can before making a decision, check both sides of the argument, etc.
I just got done with faculty interview. It was very chill. Don't sweat over it, you will do fine!
I had my faculty interview Feb 12 and still haven't heard anything. I even emailed the secretary and asked if she had a general timeframe and she said they had no idea because "everything is online now". I know they were still interviewing this last week so who knows 🤷
I just finished my faculty interview. It was chill, but a bit too chill...? It only took 10 minutes, and there were only 2 questions. Didn't ask my grades or research or any ethical questions... I'm stumped. It might be a signal that I've been red flagged... But fingers crossed🤞
When I interviewed last cycle via zoom (~15 minutes), Case by far was the most relaxed interview I had; other people have also said that they had more of a conversation about various topics rather than the typical interview questions. I wouldn’t read too much into it or you’ll drive yourself crazy with theories (I know I did), just take a breather and play the waiting game 🙂 Remember - Case only has so many applicants to choose from, they wouldn’t have sent an invitation if they didn’t think you would have been a good fit for the class composition.
I wouldn't worry about this too much as it is probably a rumor. In fact, I have heard the opposite and that this cycle they are taking an even more holistic approach when reviewing applicants considering the circumstances. Just keep your head up and stay confident you have great stats! 🙂
yeah same here, I was thinking the same thing bro. I had the same experience.
Did you get your acceptance email on Tuesday (3/16)?
Yeah I got in Tuesday
Mine came pretty soon after the acceptance. Like within a day or two.
I just got mine. I guess yours will come in due course
Yeah I got mine, but have no idea how long it will take to send it to school
just make sure you have your pre-reqs done for the schools you are applying to. Some schools mandate you have microbio,anatomy, and physio done. if you have met them all, just use your time to work and maybe earn some shadowing experience? maybe take a vacation?
I would echo what has already been said and make sure you have taken the required prereq classes. Other than that, I don't know that I would really suggest more classes just because. They are already going to be teaching you the basics again in dental school just much faster and more in depth and I don't know that taking extra classes would help you a lot. That seems like money that you are going to be spending just to turn around and spend it again in dental school. Doesn't seem like a worthwhile investment
Go to a library and check out an anatomy and physiology textbook if you don’t have one from undergrad lying around. Causally look it, maybe paying a little bit more attention to the respiratory and circulatory system chapters (Heart and Lung will be one of your first challenging science classes later on in the semester). Spend the rest of your summer with family and friends, and see if you can save up money.
Same, and my ADEA status still says my application is under review. It seems like they just ghosted me
Same!🥲
In the same boat... not getting email replies either
What is the issue omg this is honestly ridiculous
me too 🙁
Nope
Also no here. I haven't heard from them since my interview in Feb (13th) and then the one email on March 22 where they said I was put on the continued review status
