Summary of Application Experience
Also applied and received IIs at Quinnipiac (II 8/8/16 -- WITHDREW) and UT-Rio Grande Valley (II 7/18/16)
Summary of Experience:
Probably my worst interview. I felt off the whole day and kept unintentionally spacing out due to the long amount of time we were inside of the same, small room.
The school itself was really nice with great facilities and access to a large amount of hospitals. My concerns with Tufts are mostly related to cost and location. Should hear back the first week of Nov. Expecting a solid WL.
Summary of Experience:
Interview went well. It was a long two days with a lot of time to ask questions and really obtain a full grasp of the revamped curriculum. The administration kept stressing how attentive and caring they are.
UTSW tends to pre-match heavily, but as a re-applicant I am not exactly expecting to hear back Nov. 15th, but will be pleasantly surprised if I do.
Summary of Experience:
II was over the weekend on the portal. I never got an email.
The interview day was great and we were provided with ample time to talk to the students candidly regarding their experiences. The admissions office was stellar and very inviting. Lovely experience.
