ff0923 Posted December 27, 2017 Share Posted December 27, 2017 Anyone still in a position where they haven’t heard anything at all? Just emailed to check since it seems like all interview invites have gone out at this point Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You get to meet the faculty members and there's food. Also you your the school! The interview itself is pretty casual 3 one on ones very traditional but they're nice for the most part!! Depends on who you get, as some are more casual some are more serious/intimidating imo. I got waitlisted and heard today I got an interview for 1/20! I appreciate you for the advice! And congratulations for getting in a spot! :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PAGothamCity Posted January 1, 2018 Share Posted January 1, 2018 Hello, everyone! I'll be in Group A with all of you on Jan. 17th-18th. I just wanted to reach out to everyone and ask something. I've interviewed at a few schools both last year and this year (still waiting to hear back from one that I interviewed at recently). I've done both traditional one-on-one interviews and MMIs. Perhaps from previous interview experience at Baylor, can anyone elaborate on our interview sessions that will take place in a couple of weeks? How would you recommend preparing? I know that sometimes with MMIs you get curve balls like "Label this anatomy diagram" or "Explain statistically why you would choose Medication A over Medication B" - questions derived from our prerequisites. For those who have previously interviewed (or heard from others who have), how would you recommend preparing for the interview sessions? Can we expect more traditional questions and questions about our health care experience? Or should we expect "curve ball" questions like you tend to see in MMIs?

Anyone know of fun stuff to do in Houston? People EAT in Houston. That's what you do if you live in Houston. Yeah yeah there are other things to do...but given the choice between NASA and food or Museums and food or night life and food??? Yeah FOOD wins... In my personal opinion... Best Steak- Pappas Bros Steakhouse (Filet Mignon) Best Burger - Plonk's Guanciale burger Best Tacos - Tacos Del Julio (get the Gringa) or 100% Taquito...get the Pastor Tacos #53. Best Tex Mex - Lupe Tortilla's Beef Fajitas Best Asian- Thai Gourmet's Garlic Fish, Massamun Curry Beef, Basil Chicken and anything at Banana Leaf restaurant or House of Bowls. Best Happy Hour- Benjy's Best Breakfast- Dish Society Shrimp and Grits or Breakfast Klub Wings N waffles. Crawfish when it's Crawfish season- Crawfish Cafe's basil crawfish. I could go on and on and on..but this list might help you relax and enjoy life a bit more while you are in PA school. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Give Baylor a call and see if they'll accommodate a later 'Group D' for those who miss them due to the devastating .014 inches of snow we got. I definitely feel many people will have been impacted with this timing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PAperson90 Posted January 16, 2018 Share Posted January 16, 2018 Is anyone else in A group trying to reschedule flights to get there in time? If so, what worked for you? I am unable to find anything that will allow me to be in Houston on time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
onedaypa1818 Posted January 16, 2018 Share Posted January 16, 2018 I flew into Dallas and I’m planning to drive down in the morning. Not the most ideal situation at all, not sure what’s going on in Houston and I hope this isn’t a terrible tragedy for everyone. i’m a little disappointed there isn’t a back up plan because of having interviews in January this is probably happened before.

katmt Posted January 17, 2018 Share Posted January 17, 2018 Baylor is closed until noon today, so if anyone is trying to get in contact with the school and can't, then that is likely why. Hope everyone who was suppose to make it in today or yesterday, was able to safely come in! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tara2402 Posted January 17, 2018 Share Posted January 17, 2018 I got in last night at 2AM. Had to take back roads from IAH to where I'm staying in Houston because all of the highways were essentially closed. Currently roads are not bad. I went out for some groceries this morning, and stayed off highways and I was fine. Good luck to everyone. Don't rush and be careful if you're driving down because Texans don't get enough snow to salt their roads. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Neither. You didn't need it. It is a pretty laid back interview comparitively. Some are really more conversational. It's 3 one on ones. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
