Mt. Sinai Interview!!!!!

[gmendese]

Well, as you can probably guess from the subject line, I just received an email today inviting me to interview at Mt. Sinai! I am absolutely psyched. I'm a little perplexed, too, because I don't even have my August MCATs yet...I guess they like me anyway! Anyway, the interview is on November 8, so maybe I'll see some of you there.

Care to share your stats?

 

[gmendese]

Sure, no problem. I graduated with a 3.82 from UMass but was a transfer there and had a crummy freshman year and had a cum of 3.70. My MCATs are 7, 10, R, 10. My 7 is the downfall and the reason why I retook the MCAT in August. But...the kicker is...this is my third time applying to medical school. I guess persistence pays.

I wish that woman who was "in charge" of my app. at Mt. Sinai returns from her God-damned vacation! I couldn't believe what i heard when they told me to call back Monday cuz she was on holiday!

Resident Alien - at least she doesn't hate you. I've called quite a few times, and the person in charge seemed rather upset that she had to call AMCAS for me to find out why the app wasn't sent. I was told very huffily that my app is not verified so Absolutely nothing can be done (even though they have a copy of my amcas sent in by me - I even work at Mount Sinai). Alas!

Wow...im with you E01, being there and feeling helpless......
I'd much rather have them tell me over the phone that they aren't considering me than give seemingly incredible answers.

E'01, which department in Sinai do you work in?

 

[gmendese]

sjordan,

My application hasn't been verified yet. I have the Xs, but I'm not quite done with the process yet. I guess they went ahead with my application before verification. Nice, huh?
