first round between y’day and today. Can’t wait for my DS in 2nd round.
if you went to an interview, can you let us know what kind or moral questions they asked?
Hey @nerdgal123, sorry, but just like in previous years, applicants are not to post specific MMI questions/topics in the thread from their UMKC BA/MD interview day, esp. as it would disadvantage one interviewing group over another, since each separate interview day is a repeat of the previous day. Any posting of actual interview questions or of MMI scenarios from the UMKC BA/MD interview day in the thread will be automatically deleted by College Confidential moderators (not me).
Here are some medical ethics/bioethics topics for practice:

Thanks, @Roentgen. You have enough on your posts for our kiddos to get a feel of topics and procedures, while we parents try to wrangle the logistics, which you also try to help us with. Hopefully, my D will have time to look at your posts before her interview in a coupla weeks!!
My DC’s coach helped us for several BS/MD interviews and so far he has been on the money with the types of questions DC was asked.
We’re hoping the same will hold for UMKC next week. Good luck to everyone interviewing.
@Rainiertx If you coming on Monday certainly we are there as well.
how’d yo guys feel about the test? Was it difficult. Also how long are the chem courses over the summer?
Also, when did you guys who are already in have your orientation? I am traveling this summer so I wanted to know.
You’ll be fine on test, basic stuff, so no need for summer classes!
DS feels hopeful with interview, can’t wait until 3/24. 3 different Orientations will spread out in June so pick your best option once you are accepted.
i am currently a junior and I m interested in umkc 6 years program however my ACT score is 28 because I just came to the USA 3 years ago however my GPA is 4.278 and ranked second out of 600 students. I volunteer in a hospital and I shadowed doctors for about 20+ hours and I speak 3 languages. Do you think I have a chance to get accepted even without 32+ ACT score?
Thanks much
@Mohamed731 no one can chance you and say definitely one way the other. However my take is simple you still have opportunities take ACT before you start application in coming fall and bump that ACT as much as you can. You may want to go though article at http://med.umkc.edu/bamd/admission-requirements-eligibility/ and see yourself where you stands.
@PPofEngrDr we had a great experience at UMKC. Hope you did as well 
… GL
@Rainiertx yes we did and this is our last hope for any BS/BA/MD program. Noticed that you are having interview with few other places as well, GL to you and one of them should click eventually.
3/24? I thought its end of March or by April 1.
