Is what it is… meet the min requirements?…we’ll all get one… eventually.

Are the secondary questions similar to last year's cycle?

Mercer University School of Medicine was established in 1982 to educate physicians and health professionals to meet the primary care and health care needs of rural, medically underserved areas of Georgia.

1. Summarize your work and learning experiences that reflect congruence with our mission.

2. Based on your understanding of our mission, where and what do you envision yourself doing after completion of medical school and residency, and how does this address the critical need for primary health providers in Georgia?

3. Describe your body of work in service to the underserved and reflect on its importance in preparing you for the practice medicine.

4. Describe your personal experience with rural medicine.

5. Explain to the Admissions Committee experiences, attributes, or qualifications you believe are unique to you that will strengthen the educational environment at MUSM.

6. Discuss your academic readiness for the rigors of our medical school curriculum. If necessary, explain how you overcame academic difficulties.

7. Address any institutional action, including honor code or conduct code violations, from your time as an undergraduate or graduate student. Applicants may answer ‘None’ to this question if the action was deleted, expunged, or otherwise removed from their record by the institution.

8. Highlight any substantial updates to your application (e.g., volunteer experiences) that have occurred after you submitted your primary AMCAS Application.

9. Highlight any experiences or attributes not covered above that would help the Admissions Committee better understand how your distance traveled to medical school and will contribute to our program or the practice of medicine in Georgia.

I'm sorry, but what does #9 mean?

LOL I asked myself the same question when I got that. My understanding is that they want us to kind of discuss our upbringing maybe and how it contributes to Mercers mission fit (someone correct me if I am wrong). Or like any challenges we may have faced along this path is I guess what that question is asking. Atleast thats my understanding.

When does Mercer usually start sending out ED interview invites?

Last year, folks got invites the first week of August.
