Closer to my home (I'm from Illinois). The school is a little more established and well known in the midwest for which I want to do residencyWhat made you pick Chicago?
Congrats! I had the same interview date and thought they said decisions would be made on the 15th so that's crazy fast turnaround.Interviewed on 12/07/2021 and just got an acceptance email! First of the cycle!!
Yeah, I wasn't expecting to hear anything until the end of the next week but I am not complaining lolCongrats! I had the same interview date and thought they said decisions would be made on the 15th so that's crazy fast turnaround.
I'm 95% certain this is the case.Accepted students: I would like to hold my seat at AZCOM but am also keeping my options open as I've interviewed at other schools and haven't heard back. If I pay the deposit, I can still decide to go elsewhere, but I just lose that money? Its not binding that I sign it and HAVE to go there right?
nah, it's just a hold. and if you decline before some deadline you get half of it back. I would say 90% of people hold their seat here because decisions come pretty fast and it's pretty cheap.Accepted students: I would like to hold my seat at AZCOM but am also keeping my options open as I've interviewed at other schools and haven't heard back.

I interviewed today and they said that they’re trying to give all December interviewers a response by this Friday 12/17, but also that it’s not a guarantee and there’s a small chance we could hear back first week of January!They said the committee meets tomorrow but here I am spam refreshing the portal every 10 minutes.
Given my other DO deposit is due Sunday I’m really rooting for FridayI interviewed today and they said that they’re trying to give all December interviewers a response by this Friday 12/17, but also that it’s not a guarantee and there’s a small chance we could hear back first week of January!
+1 I got that email and it reads as extremely disrespectful.Just got an email saying I’m still on the interview waitlist but that I should apply to their pharmacy program. That’s gotta be a fatal blow.
A lot of my app does similar things in regards to working with certain marginalized communities and was singled out in a similar manner during an interview last application cycle, excluding the use of slurs. It quickly turned an interview at my top choice into a mad spiral of doubting myself and all the work I'd put in up to that point. Definitely report this interviewer, and if you aren't entirely turned off of the school, maybe even request a redo. Thank you for sharing this. I'm glad to know about these things before I interview, and may have to more heavily consider my options.I interviewed at this school, and I have to say that I was extremely displeased with my interview experience. Much of my application centers working with a historically excluded and marginalized community, and one of my interviewers did nothing but attack me for working with them. They asked me questions about whether or not this community deserves health care and referred to this community by a derogatory slur purposefully to antagonize me. I walked away crying from my interview, shaken with rage. I will be reporting this interviewer and taking serious next steps so as to ensure that no other student is insulted and injured like I was in the process. They frankly turned my whole interview into a political debate, as opposed to an experience in which they might get to know me.
+1!!!Oh my gosh. My accepted student checklist populated, 430 pst. I have no idea when since I just looked and I haven’t received a call or email or anything but assuming that means accepted!
I am a current student and actually participate in the interview process at AZCOM. I can’t not imagine any of the faculty at doing this. If you would like to message me with more specifics I would be more than happy to follow up with administration on what exactly happened. It is actually a requirement we work with underprivileged individuals through the HOMES program so I wouldn’t see why anyone would attack you for thatI interviewed at this school, and I have to say that I was extremely displeased with my interview experience.

I walked away crying from my interview, shaken with rage. I feel like my interviewer took advantage of an unequal power dynamic.

This person quite frankly turned my whole interview into a political debate, as opposed to an experience in which they might get to know me.

Can confirm. They can also access your personal statement.Believe it's closed file, but they do have access to your secondary responses and the CV you submitted.
