There have been a few questions about whether it's recommended to attend the open house after interview. I am also wondering about this. Could any current student let us know? Otherwise I can email the adcom team.

I went ahead and signed up. It's the day following the in-person interviews, so definitely makes sense to attend and gain more exposure to the school, faculty, and students. Interview 8/25 and open house next day, if you're attending that date message me directly!

Hi you guys I just got verified two hours ago, how long does it take to get a secondary after you are verified?

 

[Premedguru656]

Just wanted to see if anyone else attending the in-person interview on 8/25, also signed up for the open house the following day?

I did, if Im already going to make the trip, might as well get a good second look without the pressure of interviewing.

 

[kaleidoscope1202]

I still haven’t received a secondary from here after being verified yesterday. Does anyone know the processing time?

I think it took about 3 days to recieve a secondary after they recieved my primary

Good luck to everyone interviewing tomorrow! We got this!!

 

[moonpiemaker300]

[pomegranatesmoothie]

received pre-II rejection email ( OOS non-trad

 

[nontradgogetter]

anyone know how they conduct interviews??

It's a 30 minute interview with 2 people. Open file

 

[moonpiemaker300]

Is it a chill interview? and does open file refer to seeing the secondaries and ECs during the interview?

 

[moonpiemaker300]

I'm trying to sign up for an interview but the september dates aren't even an option even though it says it is on their calendar? I'm out of the country on the only day they have open at the moment so I am a bit confused..

What is the only day they have open?

 

[moonpiemaker300]

What is the only day they have open?

it's August 18th? but i just clicked to register for it bc it wasn't allowing me to hit any of the days in september for some reason

They’re probably trying to fill up their August dates maybe but that’s weird, when I was registering there were definitely a lot of September dates open. You should call them, they are usually very responsive

okay bet

also it's really weird, like I can't click any of the dates for september even though it says I can register ? so confused.

 

[DocSherman]

received pre-II rejection email ( OOS non-trad

My sympathies.

Is it an interview hold or a more final rejection?

 

[Premedguru656]

Can anyone share how the interview went today?

 

[immaculate_colon1]

Can anyone share how the interview went today?

really enjoyed it. seems like a great school and the student panel was fantastic. hoping for the A...

 

[kaleidoscope1202]

I still haven’t received a secondary. Verified 7/21. Should I be worried?

 

[happypremed11234]

Is the AMCOS ID # for the interview times just the last few digits of the AMCOAS #?

 

[happypremed11234]

Did you know the names of the interviewers beforehand?

I did not

 

[techdoc00]

Does anyone know the post ii acceptance rate?

 

[Premedguru656]

Just noticed all the September interview dates are now full. Send me a dm if you're also attending to the in-person interview on 8/25 please!

 

[nontradgogetter]

Does anyone know the post ii acceptance rate?

I saw on last year's thread that it is pretty high (about <70%) in the beginning of the cycle and decreases as the cycle goes on.

 

[happypremed11234]

Hey! For those of you that have had a virtual interview already, how early should you show up/log on? Is there anything you need to attend at the start of the morning or is the first thing you attend the personal interview?

 

[cozu]

waitlisted

 

[chacothefish]

waitlisted

When did you interview?

 

[cozu]

When did you interview?

7/28

 

[chacothefish]

7/28

Did they say why you were waitlisted? Was it stats? So bizarre tbh.

No reasons stated in email, pretty generic. Yeah kind of a bummer

 

[Premedguru656]

waitlisted

Remember there's still plenty of time till the end of the cycle, and you're one of the first on the waitlist, so good chance for some movement. Do you mind sharing stats, and wether you're from the region? If you don't feel comfortable sharing publicly, you can always DM me. Good luck!

 

[rperson1212]

Pre-II hold. Not sure what to think about this but at least it's not a rejection :/

 

[helloashie]
