Hi, does anyone know what interview day looks like? Like, is it just the interview, or is there also Q&A and/or a presentation? Also, how long does the whole thing take? Thanks!

I waited a bit over a week and then called them up. The student immediately reached out after that.

Does anyone know if Downstate accepts updates or letters of interest? If so do we submit to the portal? I can't remember what they said on interview day.

They said to be "strategic" with the update letters in terms of timing dunno what that means
