I just received an interview invite for Davis! Is there any info on the admitted student date? (just hopeful thinking and wanting to plan in case it conflicts with any others!) thanks

there's a bunch of opportunities so dont let a single station mess you up. just try your best to explain clearly and answer the question that's being asked. basic mmi advice but for davis, i didnt feel super confident so try and reset after each one

Agree with this. The prep time feels long and the stations feel short - as ever with MMIs, concision is key

Ditto regarding concision.

Smile lots (not too much, ofc). I have a list of saved memes on Instagram. To de-stress and reset in between interviews, I usually scroll through this list and just try to laugh my nerves away. Everyone has their own techniques, though.

Does anyone know how consistent Davis is with getting back to people in 3 weeks post-interview? That’s what they told me in my interview but seems like Admit data shows a different story. Thanks all :)

I have the same question. Not many people on the Admit "cycle results" page for UCD receive an answer within 4 weeks, yet most of this thread says w/in 3 weeks is accurate. Just strange.

Hoping we both get in!

The reason for this is the dates on the Cycle Results page are the date the II was sent, not the date the interview took place.

Maybe your writing or letters weren't what they are looking for.
