<p>If you have no research experience for the physician-scientist program...does that automatically disqualify you from contention...cuz from the looks of it, having that experience means alot...</p>
<p>really?? i didn't no that....</p>
<p>I think it would definately help a lot to have research experience but this supplement has questions that are very difficult. I think if you don't have any research experience then you are less credible since this is a physician-research program.</p>
<p>oo..right..i see what u mean</p>
<p>Are the other AMC programs (eg. Union) as research-focused as RPI's? Also, what kind of questions does RPI ask on the supplement (I didn't get one, I've been rejected from the program)?</p>
<p>filabusta...don't worry, i thought i was rejected too, but i got it like a week ago...it takes a whole helluva long time fer them to get it to everyone</p>
<p>oh, hopefully I'm not out of the running for them</p>
<p>anybody know about Union/AMC or Siena/AMC</p>
<p>No, I already received a letter indicating that I'm out. So, is the Union program this centered on research too?</p>
<p>dunno...i know siena is community service (i was placed on the alternate list on this one) and rpi is research...i THINK that union is leadership</p>
<p>yea RPI is physician scientist
Siena is ethics/humanities
Union is leadership/healthcare management</p>
<p>what do you mean u were placed on the alternate list, like waitlisted?</p>
<p>so thats why they have three different schools that are linked up to Albany Medical College</p>
<p>does anyone know when interviews begin and when we are notified of the final decision?</p>
<p>matrixrebloated: uhhh, it said:</p>
<p>"There were over 300 outstanding applications this year. After careful review, the Admissions Committee has decided not to forward your application to Albany Medical College....however, they have decided to put you on the alternate list. If one of the 42 finalists can or will not attend, you will be notified."</p>
<p>I called, and they said that if one of em enrolls somewhere else or drops out of the running, they'll call me and i'll take that spot</p>
<p>ok tofu, I get what your saying</p>
<p>anybody get interviews from rpi?</p>
<p>i've got one on the 16th</p>
<p>mine is Monday 2/5</p>
<p>snail mail or email notification...havent gotten anything yet?</p>
<p>i got it via email</p>
<p>i havent received anything- no AMC supplement, no request for an interview...does this mean im rejected?</p>
<p>I received the supplement today.</p>
