<p>its pretty standard questions, why u want to be a doctor, info about your school, extracurriculars, interests, etc. I imagined it would be really formal and kinda nerve-racking but it was 100% the opposite.</p>
<p>My son is flying from NJ for the interview. Does any one know what is the acceptance rate for out of state applicants.</p>
<p>i dont know what the acceptance rate for out of staters is...
BUT, i'm almost positive that 97% of their med skool is instate residents... meaning, that if ur an outofstater from jersey... ur chances are slim, not impossible, but still..</p>
<p>best of luckk...</p>
<p>well 230 applied, 120 were chosen for an interview, and they will select 25-30</p>
<p>:( that's it? I thought about 25-30 actually matriculate, and they choose more than enough, like 50</p>
<p>do you mind answering whether they asked any of those questions about current trends in medicine, etc.</p>
<p>Last year, about 20 matriculated so I'm guessing the acceptance rate is a bit higher.</p>
<p>This year the program is changed from 6/7 years to 7/8 years. Do you think they likely to have different applicant pool this year.</p>
<p>Probably changed a bit, but not too much IMO. If someone wants to go to UMiami, they'll apply anyways. There's no med program like it in FL that's open for out-of-state people.</p>
<p>How many ppl interview you
How medical related questions?</p>
<p>im going for an interview this tuesday, feb 22. who else will be there?</p>
<p>I will be there Tuesday the 22nd in the afternoon. My email says that I am scheduled for 2:30 PM. Is the the time I show up, or is there an information session or tour form 1-4 PM. Is ther an actual program and day scheduled, or just come in an interview at 2:30 and go?</p>

<p>I go to a school in South Florida, and I know 4 people who were very interested in Miami's program, but when we heard about the change- only one of us ended up applying to UMs program. UMs program was my second choice, and I didn't even apply so I definitely think the applicant pool has changed.</p>
<p>My son's interview is tomorrow (2/22 at 1:45). The interview is for 30 minutes. There is no info sessions or tours.</p>
<p>Wow really. I have 2:30 tmro. I guess that is just the time to show up then. I wonder if there is a way to schedule a tour or information session. It would be nice to see the hospital.</p>
<p>so how'd everyone's interview go? I think mine went ok...my interviewer seemed sort of dazed and didn't really follow up with the questions, so I ended up doing most of the talking. I really hope I get in, but the competition seems incredibly tough...can't wait 'till April!</p>
<p>When do people know if they are rejected and will not get an interview?</p>
<p>the last interview was on feb 24th...so by now u prob were rejected</p>
<p>my interview went pretty well, im still not sure of my chances though. Isnt there only a 1/6 chance for the interviewees? Do they only consider the interview at this point, or do stats and all that stuff still matter? How were everyone else's interviews?</p>
