Samuel Merritt Interviews Fall 2010

Published

Has anyone heard yet re: interviews for fall 2010? I believe they will be held March 3, 4 and 5. Does anyone have the statistics re: applicant pool, required stats (gre, gpa, work experience) etc. ? How many do they usually invite for interviews? How big is the class size---I think it is around 27 or 28. When will they let us know re: admissions decision? Anyhow, any info is appreciated!!!!

Just finished a Kaiser interview, and Samuel Merritt is next. I didn't apply to USC. How about you?

I didnt get in... bummer. I actually think the interview wasnt that bad, I was just nervous and talked like a blithering idiot. The people are all super nice. Good luck to everyone who got in. I have an interview at USC this week, maybe that will go better.

I'm in the same boat. I didn't get in either. I thought everything went ok and I had good recs..gpa 3.7...gre 1210. Oh well. Good luck to everyone else!

I am also in the same boat. I'm in the alternate list...but pretty far down the list. I don't think that I will make it this year.

I'm #5 on the alternate list, the associate PD called me this afternoon. They told me they absolutely loved me but the applicants were super competitive this year, and I have only 1.5 yrs experience and barely the required GRE scores.

Hopefully you do well in your next interview at USC ! I'll keep my fingers crossed for you!
