So I just accepted a job as a Research Assistant with BCM-Children's Nutrition Research Center. I really didn't want to do anymore research but it was paying well so I accepted it. Earlier this summer I applied at MD Anderson as a nursing assistant and heard nothing from them. Today I get a call saying that they are interested in me for the position. I don't want to leave Baylor b/c I got the job due to a recommendation from my previous research advisor, so It would look bad on him if I quit already. I reallllyyy want to work at MDA b/c of all the patient contact and all of the great benefits of working there. By the way... I reallllllyyy want to go to UTH. What should I do, I'm so confused????😕
just got an invite from tech today, which gives me the options of 8/10 or 8/17 or one much later. how can we get from the airport to the med school? are there taxis, buses? med students with cars? im too young to rent a car!
Why does Tech give the least amount of notice even though they, in most cases, are located the farthest away from students?

Today seems to have been a lame day w/ no invites from anyone...sad way to start August, eh?
I don't remember if anyone's already asked this question, but to those of you who have already went on your interviews, is there anything (besides yourself haha) that is important to bring?
A pen, legal pad, and questions you want answered about their school. I think it's best to try to write down their answers to your questions in front of them. That way it shows you are really interested in their response. But be prepared for an interviewer not to be able to answer the question(s).
Let's see, what else...
don't were cologne or perfume
take some breath mints, not gum
a detailed map of the directions to the school and perhaps one of the campus
cell phone (on silent)
and of course, most importantly, a alternate suit in case you spill piping hot gravy all over myself.

So this is a silly question, but when you go to these interviews do you do the tour and all that in a suit?

Has UTHSCSA started giving out interviews for 6/20 processed applicants?
So far, from this forum, I have only noticed 6/13 processed applicants receiving an invite. Correct me if I am wrong.
what adamMD said plus:
if you're a girl: flat-bottom shoes
painkillers - you never know what'll come up, and you don't want to be making this face 🙁 during your interview
for UTMB: non-smelly bug repellent. you'll thank me later 😀
i don't know about extra suit though; chances are, you won't get time to go back to the hotel if you do spill piping hot gravy on yourself anyway 😛
Man I'm gonna sweat so much during my interviews...
I guess I'll bring a small towel or something, but I'll look like an old man.
Lol, a small towel? That's hilarious because it isn't a handkerchief. Im just picturing this guy getting interviewed that occasionally takes this towel to wipe his forehead. lol. I don't see anything about towel etiquette in any of my med school interview help books. I guess when it comes to towels anything goes.
so like do u take a bag with you or something to take all this stuff in? or like how does it work...some ppl say take extra shoes with you that are comfortable to walk in and stuff....but like......what do u bring that in? a backpack? and then bring that backpack into the interview room?
One of the girls at my TCOM interview brought her new Harry Potter book. She was very nice, but man I tought that was strange.

Anyone know when UTH will start giving out interview invitations? I know their first interview day is 8/24.

How do you know their first interview day is 8/24??...that is the same day as my UTMB interview...i doubt they would have the two interviews on the same days, would they?

I dont know about bring extra shoes... just wear some that you can walk in reasonably. For girls... I brought a couple of bandaids for blisters just in case but didnt end up needing them... for TCOM we didnt walk all that much

i have a feeling i'm going to hear from a med school tomorrow. *crosses fingers* i hope it's an invite from UTHSCSA, and not just "come fill out our secondary" (unless it's from a screening school)
Guess my waitlist hopes are gone...got a snail mail letter from UTMB that said thanks but were no longer considering your app for the 2011 class. Damn. 🙁 Maybe they'll finally give me an interview now...sigh. I'm not holding my breath.
