-Any questions, please message me! I would like to help as much as possible!
Summary of Experience:
Secondary submitted in July. Interview invite late August (I think?). Interviewed in early September (on the first possible day). Accepted in early March.
My interviews here both lasted fairly long (like 90 minutes each I think?). I also got to chat with the MD admissions director; he's a nice guy with many interesting experiences. If you have down time during the interview day, definitely talk to him! I don't think he's out to find your flaws or scare you.
Summary of Experience:
Submitted in July (I think...), Interview invite in late January, interviewed mid February. Accepted right at the end of February (almost 2 weeks to the dot).
MMI interview format. What I found interesting was how some of the students were able to discuss founding biotech start-ups.
Summary of Experience:
Submitted secondary late July, Interview invite in late October. Interviews attended in mid-November. Accepted first Tuesday of March to New-Pathway and HST.
New Pathway interview with a faculty member and then a student. HST interview with two faculty and one student.
