Summary of Experience:
interviews went really well I think. Very laid back. 10/20: I\'ve been accepted three places now, wasn\'t blown away by this school, best to just withdraw.
Summary of Experience:
3/13 - waitlisted. Really a bummer since I got waitlisted at vandy yesterday and decided this was my second choice. Waiting game begins. 2/7 - School was really nice, beautiful buildings, great reputation, lots of flexibility. Lets just see if I get in first...
wow, cannot believe I got invited for an interview here! Not sure if I\'m gonna go though, it\'s expensive and I probably would not get any aid.
Summary of Experience:
3/2 - barely made the cut, last interview day. Group interview did not go well for me, I feel like I was just making the other people look better. I\'m really not a good interviewee. Interview day was waaaaay too long. If they\'re gonna make you show up at 7:30, there should be some sort of breakfast. Bagels, fruit, something healthier than cookies and soda. Tour was like, 3.5 hours long, included way too much.
2/7 - interview invite, during my interview day at Wash U. Really surprised, hopefully this is the last interview of the season, I\'m getting so burnt out. And they have a group interview here...
Summary of Experience:
3/12 - NOOOOOO!!! waitlist. still have no idea who my second choice is, such a hard decision. 2/2 - Praying to the adcom gods for an acceptance here, Looove this school. This is my 1st choice now. 10/17 - finally got my secondary submitted, interview scheduled...for january :( 7/22 - OMG secondary and interview invite!! definitely considered this a reach, so excited!
Summary of Experience:
5/15/12 - accepted off the waitlist. This kinda sucks. If they\'d accepted me a month earlier I would be going here. Probably should have waited to make my decision but other circumstances forced me to make a decision quickly. Hope it wasn\'t the wrong one...
Loved this school! Hope they love me too. no secondary, received app complete email 8/16
Summary of Experience:
2/15 - Withdrew, I just don\'t like it as much as other places I\'ve been accepted. First interview was horrible, second and third went fine. Really like this school, nice safety. Average step 1 scores are like 6 points below Galveston, not sure that really makes a difference. Sim Lab is amazing, way better than Tulane\'s. Class size, 200, not small, but does 25 students really make a difference? New hospitals being built, but probably not done until I\'m in 4th year. I give it an 8 out of 10.
Summary of Experience:
2/15 - Withdrew. Kind of put off that I didn\'t hear anything about whether or not I would have to pay in-state or out of state tuition yet, and I think the class size is too big. Gonna go with one of my other options. 8/26 - really like this school, but I don\'t think one of my interviews went so well. Hopefully the other one will be good enough to get me in.
