wow that’s super low the amount of accepted. Like some other schools I’ve heard are accepting like 3x class size

Yeah it could be he was just trying to sell the school up... does seem kinda low idk

Congrats on the interview! I was just hoping you’d be able to confirm that the interview day is in fact from 8-3. I’m looking to take time off work.

 

[arabinow]

Hi congratulations on your interview! I saw some people had bad cop/good cop experience while others had a laidback experience. Would you mind sharing how your experience was?

Hello! I have my interview scheduled for Oct. 19th and was wondering when I would receive the agenda for the interview day? I would really like to know when my individual interview will be especially because I'm in the pacific time zone so I need to adjust my sleep schedule

 

[premed1996]

Does anyone know if this school screens for secondaries with mcat minimum? Is it IS heavy or no? Thanks!

Their minimum MCAT is 497.

Has anyone who interviewed already heard back with decisions yet? I interviewed 9/21 and still nothing. Pretty sure they said 3-4 weeks for decisions.

For Touro middletown or in general for DO schools? Bec I've seen people post about A to the Harlem campus already. And I've also been accepted to a diff DO school about 2 weeks ago...

Oh okay good to know. Thank you!!

 

[atdr2020]

I have an interview in Nov. Is the interview format similar to the Harlem campus; some of those posts said they grilled the candidate.

 

[pre-med202022]

Had my interview here today. Very chill and conversational.

 

[BenAffleckIsAnOkActor]

Just had my interview as well. The faculty were really nice and laid back. We were able to joke around and have fun which is something I’ve yet to do in a med school interview!

 

[DO123xyz]

Does anyone know if Touro accepts update letters? I already interviewed but I can't remember what they said.

 

[Mill314]

Looks like us 9/21 interview folks are going to the last day of that six weeks

I interviewed on 10/5. I wonder if they’ll send out the first batch of acceptances all together?

That makes me feel so good about my stats. If you do not mind sharing, what was your GPA?

 

[Med_bound_maybe]

congrats!! I submitted my secondary about a month ago and haven't gotten a complete email yet. When you say you were complete 3-4 days ago, does that mean you got a complete email 3-4 days ago? When did you submit your secondary if you don't mind me asking?

 

[Mellyjelly123]

Thank you so much

 

[Mellyjelly123]

Thank you so much

Of course! And it was my 4th MCAT retake. I’m URM as well.
but I felt confident. I have a very unique story and emphasized working with disadvantaged communities and addressing health disparities. I applied to HBCU MD schools and DO schools that has that in their mission

So actually in my interview Monday, Mr Rose mentioned briefly that they were finishing up reviewing the past interviews and sending decisions sometime soon (I’m assuming this week or early next week).

I remember Mr. Rose saying they will accept letters but you have to email them to him or Buskey directly.

for those who have interviewed already, how did you prepare?

for those who have interviewed already, how did you prepare?

Make sure you research your interviewers you could have a couple specific questions to ask them at the end.

Also make sure to know why DO/medicine/Touro Middletown. Be ready to delve deeper into your experiences and your whole application in general. Also maybe some ethical questions.
