how bad does it look to not have taken AAMC preview exam?

 

[superdesperate]

I’m not sure but I think people on this thread or last years thread still got interviews without preview

Hi! I have an interview on Thursday! Any interview tips? Much appreciated thank you!

 

[Just_Daikon]

Would working at Beaumont or having a connection at Beaumont help with ouwb?

I wouldn't be able to tell you since I'm not on admissions, but quite a few of my classmates have worked at Beaumont or were connected to Beaumont in some way before applying. It likely does help with answering why OUWB question if anything and creating a connection to the area

Hi! I have an interview on Thursday! Any interview tips? Much appreciated thank you!

Just be yourself and don't be afraid to ask questions! The interviewers here really do try to get to know you as a person/human being vs. you as a student and meant to be chill (as opposed to some other schools that tend to grill you about health policy or whatnot).

i think overall it is better to interview earlier, simply because rolling admissions!

 

[officially_apostate]

Anyone else get the email today from admissions but subject line is "Learn more about Oakland University Beaumont (OUWB) School of Medicine"? Way to get my hopes up for my first MD II

I didn't get that email. I hope that is not a bad sign. Did you just receive it or was it earlier today?

I also have never received any emails like this

 

[officially_apostate]

I also have never received any emails like this

Also super deceiving because on the top of the email it says "Admissions Update"

Hope this makes you feel better: last cycle, I got all of their promotional emails literally every other week but they never showed me any interest. So I seriously doubt those emails mean anything

[gabagolddigger]

Congrats!! What was your complete date?

So my case was a little strange. I received and submitted my secondary on the first day (6/30), but I was not marked complete until 7/15. Not sure why it took so long as everything was submitted on my end. Not sure if others had a similar case.

[letmerunaway]
