You donât need to worry about it they just randomly sorted it and each interviewer is given equal weight - it doesnât matter who the interviewer is

yeah
Can anyone answer my previous question about having an interview that was a time slot of 40 minutes but ended up being 20 minutes haahah
No thats pretty worrisome because I dont have a doctor. The doctor who is interviewing you is probably directly in charge of decisions in some way. I think they may have ranked atudents prior and then decided or created a preliminary rank to interview students.
you are overthinking this too much LOL just because they have a doctor title doesnât mean they have more say!! just relax and see what happens. They chose you as a finalist be happy that is a big accomplishment!

Yeah i mean im hyped true but i really want to get in the program too uk. Is your doctor one of the admissions people it shows above at the top? Also, how do you know the bolded means interview i didnt even know this third one is an interview
@REMSHOPEFUL123 Please relax before interview and go with clamness. These REMS folks know what they are doing.
Alright,. Im just disappointed because I wanted to talk specifics about my medical ventures and the man interviewing me isnt a researcher/doctor but i guess its alright
FYI, a resident may be the chief resident who is in-charge of all residents at UOR hospital. Be respectful with medical student/resident as you will be with a MD or a PhD professor, IMO.

You go around everything in circles! Just go to interview and get it done in awesome way. Everything else is immaterial because you have no control on who and in what order they interview you.

No one knows exactly how Step 1 going P/F is going to affect residency placement. The general consensus is that PDs will simply use Step 2CK as their numerical filter instead of Step 1.
Both FAU and SKMC likely place many (most?) of their students into regional residencies because those programs are most familiar with the schoolsâ respective reputations and are more familiar with the preceptors who write studentsâ LORs.
Also there is a certain amount selection bias going on from the studentâs side. Presumably students at each school are more likely to be from the region (Tri-state/mid-Atlantic for SKMC and SE US for FAU) and want to stay local for residency because they like the area or/and intend to remain in the region to practice post residency.
The difference in the perceived prestige between FAU and SKMC is pretty minimal. If the questions was whether one should attend either FAU or Brown/Northwesternâthen this would be a different conversation.
If the parents/student can afford both FAU and SKMCâI would recommend the student choose the program that offers the best fit because the student is going to spend the next 7-8 years of their life going to that school. And thatâs 8 years of their young life they are never going to get back. If they are unhappy/discontented/miserableâthe odds says the student wonât make it to med school graduation.
