hi everyone,
congratulations for everyone who got acceptance in bu :thumbup: :thumbup:. This new year must have been very wonderful for u'll after making it successfully to bu & other schools. "WISH U'LL A VERY HAPPY & PROSPEROUS NEW YEAR 2006". But y aren;t anyone just discussing about how the interview was, how did it go for u'll on that day & exactly what u'll did(i mean the whole day) & who interviewed u'll. i tried to pm some of them who had already been to intv in bu but no one replied, inspite of telling they r ready to help and share any information regarding the intv. :confused: :confused:
this will be my first intv & have no idea abt how it is going to be. any input regarding the intv in bu can atleast relieve my tension to some extent. so please guys kindly take some time off, now that u'll have got acceptance, can u'll help us too who r going to go through the same phase once u'll had faced & came out of it successfully.
any help is really very much appreciated
thankyou so much.

Hey drdent,
Indeed, beginning of 2006 has been wonderful and i hope it continues to bring lots of joy to everyone !
I have replied to all genuine PMs so far and loads of them were about the interviews at BU....anyways my experience at BU was very good..... I was interviewed on Dec 1, 2005. We were 9 of us..the day started and went on as per the schedule that must have been sent to you along with the interview invitation. There were 3 faculty members who interviewed 3 canditates each.
The school tour given by a AS student was nice, also a couple of AS students joined us for lunch giving u an oppurtunity to ask any questions about the school, the program , anything u wish to.
Interviews were done before lunch, post lunch session had interactions with the financial and student affairs representatives . we were done by 3.30 pm.
IMO the whole day was very pleasant with one on one interviews being very laid back, and mainly personal questions were asked...more like a conversation than a Q-A type.
This was my experience at BU on the day of my interview...I hope this helps.

Good Luck and God bless All ! :)

Hi rgr,

heartily congratulations...
Can you please tell me how much experience did you have in usa..?? I am asking because I dont have any such experience...and I am desperately waiting to hear from BU... my stats are 91/250/3.65/no exp in USA...
All the best for the new turn in your life...
 
Thanks dantrakshak
I don't have much exp in US. Just a few months of observer/volunteer exp.
I have 5 years in India with some ortho/pedo exp.
I was told that BU looks for part 1 and GPA. Yours look good.
I was interviewed by Dr. Gohel. Was also told that applicant pool was weaker this year as compared to last year. Last year they called upward of 88 in part 1. Best of luck for your application.

hi az646,
i understand ur question as u r deciding between UIC and BU...but i'm sorry I cannot put down the reasons ,,,bcoz it was my personal choice, i had some reasons for it, but that does not mean UCSF isnt good....moreover i feel every school is good,they have their own pros and cons.....BU impressed me more than UCSF...so its BU for me....for other ppl who r deciding over schools, i'd say decide based on ur priorities and ur expectations...wherever u go, its u who matters...just try seeing urself in that environment,,,and choose the school where u will fit in comfortably the most.
Disclaimer: THIS IS JUST MY OPINION.....Both BU and UCSF are great schools.
Good Luck !!!
