Just got a JMP II, the only dates available are Thursdays and they will tell you the time of the interview the day of. You also need to apply to UC Berkeley Graduate Studies after you get a JMP II.

I just got an interview invite and for the information session, has anyone been able to reschedule it without changing the interview date? I scheduled my interview for a day I can be free all day, but I have a prior commitment on the day before, which is the day they assigned me for the information session.

if you strongly communicated your reason for medicine, you are probably fine. They seem to asses that the most.

Has anyone received an SJV PRIME interview yet? Thank you! :)

Could anyone clarify if you're told in your II email whether you will be interviewing for PRIME-US? I applied for PRIME-US but my II email just said that I would be interviewing for the medical degree program.

I think they're told to stay neutral. Had a similar experience and I've heard the same from others.

Isn't that data from last year's admit tracking? This year I thought UCSF started the process a bit late (1-2 months or something), so it's possible that last year's tracker wouldn't hold
