Hey idichupa, the coordinator lady told me over the phone when I asked her. It may have been more than 70 but she said definitely it's selective from a bigger pool of application already. I am prepping very hard for this because this is the only school I got an interview so I put all eggs in one basket here. Also it's gonna be a panel interview in front of 8 committee members. I heard mostly it will be behavior questions and they don't really ask any clinical questions. Unless you heard anything otherwise. Good luck to us both. But I read some of your previous posts, it seems like you got accepted to some other programs already huh? ^^

I did, I also have an interview at USC the next day, hopefully I get to see you there. I'm currently at starbucks reviewing cases! I am originally from Stockton, so it would be nice to go back home. I did get into TWU, but that was my very last choice. I'm lucky I got into a level A trauma center in socal, and played all my cards right because my GPA is not competitive at all, I couldn't believe they gave me an interview

It won't let me respond privately, just be yourself, they're all really nice! It's more personal

I have a mixed feeling about how I did. But it was good that they were nice. Guess we all will find out on Monday. A couple people seemed already got a spot somewhere else and this was not their first choice. I hope they would tell the board soon, for the rest of us who really wanted SMU. I love the senior students. They were very informative to talk with.
