Ugh radio silence from Downstate. 130/127/132/131 MCAT, Nontrad, 4.0 post bacc.

When did people with interviews submit?

If it makes you feel better I am also living through radio silence with a 132/132/132/132.

Wow. What a feat of excellence. Good job!

guys if it helps, i submitted my secondaries 6/30. hella fucking early. i think there are j soooo many more apps schools are going through, pushing the timelines back. i got my secondary a month and a half after submitting. shits complicated innit

Did anyone who had interview get a writing portion on the day of?

They phased it out this year

that's what I thought as well, until a follow up email mentioned it. Maybe they used the template from last year, I emailed them back to make sure. But thank you for the reassurance, for a moment I was worried I missed it on test day.

does anyone have advice for preparing for this interview?

Following!

I had my interview last week and it was pp chill. I spoke with an older professor and it seemed like they just had a book of questions they pick some to ask u abt-tho it was a mix between cut and dry and conversational (i think tho it was because my interviewer was on the older side). The student interview was super chill, had a list of 6 questions they prepared to ask and then t he rest of the time was for me to ask questions - gave me a super real response of the school and made me more interested about possibly attending!
