Anyone do the “you do iq”? I’m scheduled for it tn but I haven’t really researched the case much at all beyond reading it once. been busy at work and lazy lmao. I’m going to read the case for about an hour before probably and look up vitamin C and collagen. Does it even matter anyway ?
This isn't a test or some kind of game. It's just an opportunity to get a feel for how our small-group learning process works. Our medical students act as the facilitators and help guide you through the case as they would do it. There is nothing evaluative in this.

OK, Thanks for the response. I honestly was afraid to look like an idiot and not know anything haha, but it was really a casual and fun experience! The M2 students leading the discussion were great and understanding. Appreciate the transparency of you and the rest of the staff at CWRU my interview made me think nothing but positive things about you guys.

i did the you do iq session and yeah i recommend at least googling what vitamin c and collagen is and what they do. I came in to this session with zero preparation and I felt like a buffoon. Still really enjoyed the session and love CWR

Yeah, I agree. I definitely thought I would be happy being classmates with them! Good luck to us both!

Looking at the communication log, and I'm only seeing the invite to complete secondary email. I did receive another email that confirmed that I was complete, but it's not showing up on the communication log (usually appears for other schools). I'm most definitely overthinking things but wondering if this has happened to others!

Last year they did some strange zoom link thing the day before apparently

Do they only send A's on the 17th or will everyone who interviewed in Aug/Sept get some sort of notification?

Also good luck!!
Yeah, I read last year's thread, kind of sounded like reality TV show.
IDK I interviewed in August though, they told us we'd know October 17th. Later interview dates I have no idea.
 
II IS LM 77 complete 8/5. Very excited and hope to hear from the college program as well.

Even though I didn’t get the link, I’ll say that I think it’s nice in theory to give them a live acceptance via zoom. I think the intention is to give a more personal acceptance and congratulations.

But people were going to inevitably share it on places like here so those who didn’t receive it and see everyone who did are going to feel hard done by.

I think they tell them to not say anything because there are no acceptances shared on the past years threads
ohhh nvm i get what u mean now
 
This one really stings… assuming there’s no chance more zoom invites go out this weekend?

oh also - just in case anyone was wondering, i got an interview without having filled in the optional covid essay (i actually had written it but i just forgot to fill it in i guess hahaha) so optional truly means optional!
