@jb9832ā
I had my interview with about 10 others yesterday. was contacted about it a while ago however.
Also got some stats about the rutgers/njms program: 250 applied/20-30 interviewed/10 accpeted
I do live in NJ however so the policies are possibly different.
@Lucky139 did you get interviewed with Rutgers Newark or at NJMS ? Also did you mean of the 250 Applied only 10 accepted applicants got forwarded to NJMS? If thatās the case then thatās a pretty BIG cut !
