I have browsed this BB to see how different schools conduct interviews. The information is scant as well as scattered. I was wondering if those of you who have interviewed with various programs would share your experiencesin this thread. I am mostly interested in HOW different schools interview i.e.. personal interview, clinical interview. Intimidating, friendly etc... Anything else you want to add is helpful.

Pleasetakeme, if i were you, i would cut out the email bizness. I emailed my director and my responses were so "standardized" in their reply....so i called and it was much more personable. JUST CALL them, get in their face...assertively, NOT aggressively. They need to know you mean business!! Like anesthesiabound said, they may just let you in to stop pestering them....that's my last resort, but im not to afraid to use that tactic:devil:
Has anyone else recieved notice of a formal interview BEFORE the application deadline. Just wondering impatiently....unforunately, patience is not one of my virtues when it comes to this sort of thing.
what should my reason for the second interview be?? Can I ask to relooked at and possibly review my application ? I have emailed to ask and am waiting reply.. wish me luck..

I think you have the same weakness as I do. I tend to overanalyze, and when I get into that mode, my brain tends to run around in circles and grind its own gears. A tactic that I've found that really helps me get out of that rut is to go out, get some fresh air, run a few laps, and leave whatever it was that was bothering me alone for a few days, and then attack it in a calm rational manner. This strategy might help you, Sue.
