<p>Has anyone gotten a 2nd interview at NJMS for the TCNJ program?</p>
<p>tofu had one on the 22nd I believe</p>
<p>From TCNJ program or other programs (Rutgers, Fairleigh Dickson)? I am asking specifically for the TCNJ program. Others may have interviews with NJMS but maybe from other feeding schools and not TCNJ.</p>
<p>i have one in a couple of days for tcnj/njms program</p>
<p>yeap i had one last thursday i believe...via tcnj....</p>
<p>on a related note, has anybody heard anything from rutgers newark?</p>
<p>i didnt.. (rutgers newark)
but then again my phone interview sucked! hah hehe.... err</p>
<p>How long after the first interview were you contacted for the second?</p>
<p>It doesn't matter if you applied through TCNJ, Rutgers, etc, now. You've made the initial cut - now NJMS coordinates things and makes the final cut.</p>
<p>Arwen1...ummm i had my tcnj interview on january 10th and was contacted like in the first or second week of february</p>
<p>Hi All,
My S had his interview at TCNJ a month ago. He rec'd an email requesting he call for UMDNJ interview, 2 weeks thereafter.</p>
<p>anyone get anything from Rutgers or BU yet...I got denied from TCNJ, good luck to all wit TCNJ</p>
<p>Does TCNJ allow you to finish undergrad in 2 years or do you have to stay for the determined 3?</p>
<p>I talked to some people at the Rutgers admissions today and they say that their interviewing (I guess first round). There was a record number of strong applicants alone at Rutgers (~350). So, I would not be surprised if TCNJ is in a similar, if not worst, situation. I guess this program is on its way of becoming uber-competitive.<br>
Good luck to all :)</p>
<p>To give some idea of the ridiculousness of the Rutgers program, which has a total of 10 spots, i believe, 5 ppl from my school ALONE got interviews at UMDNJ.</p>
<p>Is the second interview at the medical school with one interviewer or a committee asking questions?</p>
<p>I didn't know that Rutgers was limited to ten spots; I think the overall NJMS spots are 50 no matter where you go.
The second interview is at the medical school.
Also, what I hated most is that the admissions committee takes time to send out the decisions. I got mine, I think, two weeks into April.</p>
<p>Arwen1,
My S tells me that the interview at UMDNJ was with one committe member and not with a group of people. He also mentioned that the questions were somewhat tricky ones.</p>
<p>hydrogen, are there really 350 applicants at Rutgers alone past the 1st cut? That's pretty crazy, I think thats a lot more than last year. TCNJ is probably in a similar situation. This program is going to get super competitive in a few years</p>
<p>Yeah, this is becoming quite crazy. Take those seats if you're accepted (to any school) -- you don't want to be competing for a spot in a medical school in a couple of years.</p>
