The stress, nervousness and energy, maybe too much for 3 days, but the added worry if any delays in travel could put you over the edge. Part of admissions for applicants is reducing risks and I would seriously consider reducing this one
Interviews get rescheduled all the time. If you're >2 weeks out, they'll be able to get someone else to fill the spot and it won't look bad on you at all. My current school's interview policy is that you get one rescheduled date, essentially no questions asked, but that new date is final, so just make sure you can make that it. Other schools might be more flexible.Funny. Just wrapped up a fresh loaf of banana bread I made for my lab section as a parting gift as I head out for my first week-long marathon of interviews tomorrow. I have 3 next week but one of them is near my family home (yay for the long weekend at home!) and the other two are in the same place, so it'll be tough but not too bad hopefully.
Right after I posted this thread I had a boost of confidence and signed up for the interview that inspired the thread in the first place. I regret this decision though, especially after I realized there isn't a way for me to finagle a flight that allows me to go to an evening event hosted by my final med school that week.
Does anyone have experience in re-scheduling interviews? In the interview confirmation email, the school provided contact info in case I need to change my interview date. How bad does this look? (It's a top 10 school, don't wanna mess around, but comparing the two evils - a reschedule request vs. poor performance due to exhaustion - makes me think it's worth a shot).
Thank you everyone for all your input, would love a little more!
Much love,

If we are staying in the same city the whole time, but have three interviews in three days, do you think that would still be too much? Don't know if this is something anyone else can answer for me really, but would love any tips from anyone who has done this or something similar!
