Hey all! I know that you have to sign the NDA before the interview, but does anyone have any general advice before I jump into the MMI this Friday? I've been told you can only prep so much for the MMI since it can be literally anything but it feels super wrong to not prep at all.

I recommend reading up on the UW Ethics in Medicine page and practicing how you would respond to the case studies at the bottom of each section before reading their response! I’ve been using it to prep for my MMI with another school

i honestly did no prep at all and didnt have any trouble answering anything. the questions are designed to provoke your thoughts, not test your knowledge

I wouldn’t do this. Just trust the process

I was placed on DD, would I still be able to see uvm as an alternative with the plan to enroll tool? I have an A at other school.

It should show up as an alternate list option.

I trust these people and this process zero. Agree though.

That's what I thought, it's not appearing on my list

When did you get placed on the list? It could be UVM has yet to report it to AMCAS. I have the same issue with one of my As. It came in last Friday but has yet to show in the CYMS tool. My other As and AL placements are there though.

Could just be that UVM hasn't passed info on to AMCAS yet then. Or maybe UVM doesn't report alternate list placements or something. I'm not too sure but hopefully they get it sorted out for you soon!
