Dear Medical School Applicants:
1) Secondary applications: I hope most of you have finished your secondary applications and are getting a brief break before the interview season. For those of you who submitted AMCAS later and were verified later, it can take a few weeks for all the secondaries to come to you. Good luck on finishing them up. Some schools do screen applicants before sending secondary applications and those schools send those secondaries a bit later. The policy for secondary applications for each school can be found on MSAR.
2) Interviews: Some of you have received interview invitations, but most of you have not, so do not worry if you hear of others having gotten them already. Most schools have not yet sent out any interview invitations.
Please come to one of the upcoming Medical School Interview Workshops at OCS. All workshops except for the last one were full last year, so sign up early to get a spot and to be sure you are able to come before your first interview.
In this workshop we will discuss the basics of interviewing and will practice answering traditional interview questions and doing an MMI partner exercise. We ask that only current applicants or seniors who will be applying in a future application cycle sign up. Students applying to other health-related schools (e.g., dental and vet) are also welcome and will find the information relevant to interviewing for those schools. Please register through Crimson Careers. Each workshop is limited to 35 participants.
Here is the schedule:
Thursday, 8/25, 4-5:30 pm --Interview workshop # 1
Wednesday, 9/7, 4:30-6:00pm-Interview workshop # 2
Monday, 9/12, 4:30-6:00pm --Interview workshop # 3
Wednesday, 9/14-4:30-6:00pm -- Interview workshop # 4
Thursday, 9/22, 4:30-6:00pm---Interview workshop # 5
I hope to see you soon.
With all best wishes,
Ellen
