<p>Interviews tend to be structured in the following way:
You talk about your research.
The professor talks about his/her research.
If the professor doesn’t take up the rest of your time talking about his/her research, you ask a) questions about the program and/or b) what are hopefully insightful questions about his/her research.</p>
<p>Did anyone else apply to Gerstner Sloan-Kettering? I know interview invites were sent out around this time last year so I’m getting a little nervous…</p>
<p>@IMSageek: I am also very curious as to GSK. I’m here sitting on the edge of my seat and whenever i hear the phone ring or the sound of an email i dash to check it out. Usually just some spam from Apple or Geico.</p>
<p>@ImmunoNIH Ahhhh, edge of the seat is right! I looked at GradCafes database and of the ones listed for last year, no one was accepted. >.< I keep checking the website and the only difference this week is that the application download is back to fill-out format.</p>
<p>@IMSAgeek and Imm2010: I remember reading about this last year from GCN2’s post. They started changing stuff on their application website and a few days later invites seemed to have been sent out. Maybe this is that prelude this year around? Will it come in time for the holidays? WHO KNOWS?!?!</p>
<p>Have they even started offering interviews for Yale’s MCGD track?? I tried emailing the point of contact for the program asking about this since I have another interview date piggybacking the date that Yale has listed, so I wanted to know for planning purposes and trying not to wait too long to make arrangements with the school I’ve already been invited to, but I got no response :(</p>
<p>@kurplunk18, can you please let me know what they tell you after they get back to you? I think I read somewhere that someone got an interview. I could be wrong though. Judging from last year’s thread, it looks like MCGD interviews were given out 12/18. It could be different this year though.</p>
<p>I am going to de-lurk on this forum as well. I am also waiting to hear anything from GSK, and pretty much all the schools I applied to. One invite last week for UNC BBSP though.</p>
<p>Also, has anyone heard anything from Scripps? It seems that last year, they sent out invites around this time.</p>
<p>@cellculture, I’ll definitely let you know, but for whatever sad reason, I highly doubt that she’s going to reply… It was such a nice email too! I’m hoping they’ll start making offers any day though, and not keep us waiting until January. I feel like many more people on this forum would have posted if they started, it’s a pretty popular track I would guess…</p>
<p>I just missed a phone call from Georgetown about an interview! This comes less than 24 hours after I got an email from NYU sackler about an interview! Like some of you, I’m also waiting for GSK and Weill Cornell. I don’t know when they will come or if they will come at the same time as last year, but I feel like its still really early to be hearing back from places. I don’t think we should worry yet about GSK. Maybe if it gets to like mid january and we haven’t heard, then maybe we should be concerned about not getting an interview.</p>
