Basically title!

I know it likely differs between schools, but I am genuinely curious to hear about the process regardless. For instance, are interviewees put up on slide shows with pros/cons? Are they directly compared against each other? Do they have a formula with scores?

Side note: I accidentally previously posted this on the 2025-2026 specific school discussions forum. That is my bad.

Every school is different. I feel that the Admissions All-Access podcast (by CWRU) might be useful to you. The OHSU episode was one that stood out in terms of detailing the post-II process.

This is awesome. Thank you.

Now I suddenly understand all of the previous “stairstep” allusions on this forum😳
