Interviews

Haven't heard from IU and submitted my application 10-5. Just heard from CWRU today.

I think we are all in the same boat....waiting (not- so-patiently) hoping the invites will start coming in.

I have to admit, it has been painful listening to my fellow classmates going into Gsurge, Emed, OB etc. etc. etc., talk about the 25 invites they have received and who they have to turn down! :evilgrin:

I know I was starting to consider sending off another 20 applications just to increase my odds!

It is still early in the game. I spoke with my home school today re interviews, they don't send invites until the first week of December.

At least we can %*$&@ on this forum...And, I can't believe the only people getting invites are the ones with 25 publications that could be teaching the prep courses for the USMLE. But who knows?

Add my name to the list of those that have heard nothing from anyone. I applied to IU, and I haven't received any form of letter.

Got an interview offer from U of Florida today thru email. Dates 11/22, 12/9, 12/18, 1/8, & 1/17. All the dates have a getting to know you the day before except 12/9 which has it the same day/night. Good luck everyone!

Just heard from Northwestern for Nov 25th or Dec 2nd.

Iowa is sending out interview offers via email for 12/13-14, 12/20-21, 1/10-11

Thanks for the info on IU guys, I agree that no news is good news,,, at least for now.

Also, FixFx, just out of curiosity I was wondering if you rotated at NU? I want to get to the bottem of this "you have to rotate to interview" thing at Northwestern.

BigErn,

Got invite from Northwestern but did not rotate there. I've been told it's unusual but can happen. Good luck everyone, it sounds like the interviews are finally starting to come in.

Hey,

Summa-Akron emailed last weekend (?) for basically any weekday. Got a letter from CW putting me on the wait-list.

On Gen Med call tonight. :sick:
Give me my cheezy-poofs.

I have heard that Akron General and Summa rarely interview the same candidates. Anyone out there hear from both yet? I have an interview with General, but I haven't heard a word from Summa yet.

ortho2003--

I heard from Akron General and from Summa. Keep an eye out for Summa--they sent their e-mail on a Saturday.

Did rotate at NW. There were a few guys in the program who did not rotate, but most did.

All you people with Northwestern Interviews...throw out some numbers (step 1, step 2, etc.)

"I'm good enough, I'm smart enough, and dog-gone-it, I thought people liked me?" Still haven't heard a word from anyone, but realized my spam guard on yahoo is activated. I get like 80 bulk messages a day (fill out a few forms with email on it and look at porn, I mean physical art once, maybe twice on the internet and gave my email address and I can't stop the crap. Has anybody had their spam guard on and still had the offers go through? Are the offers normally individualized or as a group. Just in a wee-bit of a tizzy right now of whom I may have deleted. Any thoughts?

Also need to shout out a few Hallelujahs about Notre Dame finally showing how over-rated they are. I watched a local high school football game the other night with a better offense. The broadcasting is just getting out of hand. They win a few games and suddenly they are on every friggin weekend and it's the leading story on everybodies local news. Give me a break. Just had to get that off my chest after taking @$%& from some Dame fans when they beat Florida State last week.

BigPiece-

It seems as if interviews are being sent out in groups and not individualized. I haven't had any difficulty receiving invites with my spam guard on, but I did disable it yesterday out of pure paranoia. Hang in there, I think it's still a bit early. Good luck!

Step 1 241, AOA. That being said, I think that getting a NW invite is much more Ilikely with having rotated there regardless of your #s. I have a feeling this is just the start of the whacky process that is impossible to predict based on #s. Sit back and hope for the best. :smokin:

Does anyone know if these early interview offers represent the only offering of interviews for these programs or do they have waves of offers coming later?
