Hi Ahhmeizing. Congratulations on your acceptance! May I ask if you know whether interviews are focused on personality/emotional intelligence, clinical matters, or a mixture of both?

The interview was very short, with 3 faculty. It started out with slideshow style clinical questions that were relatively simple. Then, they had several personality/EI questions that were a little more intense. This was from their first cohort's interviews though, so I can only imagine it could change drastically between their 1st and 2nd cohorts.

Thank you so much for the insight!! I hope your first year has been going well.

Hey there!
    Trying to find the others that got accepted into the program. Excited to meet the other 14 people!

Hi, I hope your school is going well. I am planing to apply for the next year, do you mind to share what is your experience so far? 
Not sure if you have to do the Kira assessment last time, but it is required for this cycle and it is like a virtual interview on top of the in-person interview required.
