Hi all,

I too am interviewing this saturday. There is another thread that mentioned the format....i believe it was 1 faculty, 1 current OT student and 3 to 4 other interviewees.
I'm not sure how much were invited this year but judging from previous posts I'd say 100+

I will be interviewing Saturday as well and from my understanding from looking at past forums is that it is a group interview as @ShellStar mentioned and it is with multiple interviewers (faculty, current student(s)). In the group interview (from what I have seen other people post about in past forums) is that it can vary group to group how the interview is conducted; some groups every interviewee were asked all of the questions whereas other groups have each interviewee answer a different question. There is also an activity that varies year to year but in past years it has been groups given a prompt in relation to OT (ex. create a program that benefits x, y, z), and your group has to work together to come up with whatever is asked, make a poster and present it to the whole group of interviewees/interviewers. While this is going on interviewers will be taking notes.

Lots of info but I hope that helps!
