Did anyone else apply by the Feb 15 priority deadline for Pitt? Looking at previous years it seems like they usually send out interview invites this week so here's hoping! :)

Good luck to everyone interviewing tomorrow! I promise it's not as scary/intimidating as it may look from the schedule, LOL

On my way to Pittsburgh now!! I have been studying the Barron's book since am not sure what to expect.  Good luck to us all.

Honestly, do not worry about studying clinical info -- think much more about your answers to emotional intelligence/personal questions ?

How long were people's personal statement? Mine is right at two pages. I feel like it's too long but they also ask for like 4 things. 

Mine was slightly over 2 pages and it was fine

Did anyone hear back at all from the first round?? 

No, they're going to send out decisions for people in the first AND second rounds together later next week (which comprises half the total interviewees)

At the interviews this past Thursday, the Director said that there will be a total of four interviews so two more. And that they will make their final decisions by the end of June. He said that only top candidates will be notified prior.

My personal statement was a page. I had read somewhere to limit to a page so I did.

Yeah I am not sure that they will tell us as early as next week. Did you hear this from the director?

At the first interview they said three weeks which has past ? this wait is awful
