Drexel BA/MD

<p>If you are rejected from the Lehigh/Drexel program, is there a chance you will still get into Lehigh undergrad. If you received an interview for the Lehigh/Drexel program, does that mean you are basically into Lehigh? Or does that no bearing.</p>

<p>Thanks.</p>

<p>I think you are naturally accepted into the Undergrad if your application gets passed to the Medical School. </p>

<p>Does anyone know if Drexel Medical College has given out all their interviews yet?</p>

<p>First to Dagol- if you are rejected from the program, chances are you will still get into Lehigh undergrad. The process of the program is like this: first you have to be accepted into Lehigh’s undergrad, and then Lehigh forwards all the applications of people they accepted to Drexel Med. Drexel Med looks at the applications and narrows it down to the top 160, whom they interview. They just break it up the way they do into two days because its easier for them
Some people apply to a lot of programs, but a few applied only to Villanova/Drexel or Lehigh/Drexel etc
my stats ummm idk i had a 3.7 gpa in high school, a 33 on the act, and a 21something on the sat (sorry i cant remember everything). I volunteered at hospitals all throughout high school, and did research every summer during high school. I also played piano and did plays and musicals in school, started a volunteer youth group, adn volunteered at the local temple.
ok about the day of the interview; you first go to drexel med, from what i remember. Make sure to get plenty of sleep, and be ready to pay attention and be alert (thats all i can say because i dont want to give too much away). You will get a tour of drexel, when depends on the time of your interview. The interview for me lasted only about 15 minutes and was with some professor at Drexel Med. Try to ask your interviewer one or two questions.
The part at Villanova is very informal, you just listen and ask Dr. Friede questions if you have any.
Just be calm and think your answers through and you should be fine. Right now i’m in the Villanova/Drexel program and i love it.</p>

<p>24th for me ^_^. Good luck!</p>

<p>Tomorrow’s interviews got canceled due to bad weather.</p>

<p>hey i was wondering, does anyone know what order they pick the interviews on? LIke for everyone, does it say the same time 9:00 AM and then they will pick in a random order there? And if so, do all the interviews end before 1 pm or smthing?</p>

<p>okay so i guess, i got the answer to my questions (ABOVE) at the interview, but jw, if anyone knows if they are still giving out interviews?</p>

<p>zaara,
i don’t know if they’re still giving out interviews, but how was your interview? and would you mind sharing the answer to your question because I’ve been wondering the same thing. My interview was supposed to be last week, but it was canceled due to the snow.</p>

<p>when do you have it now? well my interview was quite odd. he asked me all personal things, like abt my family. nothing academic, which really upset me. because i felt like he didnt take my interview seriously, but idk. um the interviews usually last like 20 min. um there’s an hour lecture sort of before the interview. actually no, that was for me. it went in diff order for diff ppl. it was interview/lecture/tour. um just be yourself is all i can really say, dont be nervous. when is ur interview though? well good luck!</p>

<p>my interview is on the 25th now. hopefully it’ll go well. i didn’t know that there was a lecture and tour included on the interview day. thank you :)</p>

<p>zaara - when was your day over? I didn’t sign up for the BS/MD student tour, so will I make it back before 1:00?</p>

<p>ur day will be over by 1, even with the tour</p>

<p>What kind of interview questions are there?</p>
