Congratulations, getting an interview is quite an accomplishment!!I know many of us are envious. I'm patiently (or impatiently) waiting for interview invites myself, so I have lots of questions.

When were you complete at Case and was Cleveland your preferred campus? How did they notify you of your interview? I've been complete since early August. My top choice is Case in D.C., so I'm hoping they are delayed with sending out interviews for that campus. I actually got a hint that I would have an interview, but I'm worried I read to much into the e-mail I received. The e-mail was from one of the admission people when they confirmed my application was complete and it contained this: "I will let you know as soon as we can to schedule an interview for you in D.C." I think this is a good sign for me, but I may be just reading too much into the e-mail. haha What do you think?

Anyway, congrats again and good luck in October!

Re: Case Interviews

Never mind, I just received my interview invite for Case in D.C.! They notified me by phone call and e-mail in case anyone else was wondering. The interview day in D.C. is for November the 9th.

Hey congratulations to you!
Sorry it took a while to respond. I actually accepted the November 14th date in Cleveland as I had a conflict on the 30th. Have you garnered any tips on the case interview from anyone? What type of questions to expect...? why the interview is from 8am to 6pm

? I tried looking in the archives but didnt come up with much. congrats again and good luck!

Re: Case Interviews

I have not heard of any feedback from the Case interviews unfortunately. I'm going to go on student doctor and review some of the med schools interview questions. I figure the questions will cover at least some of the same questions.

I haven't received any of the details for my interview day yet, but I'm guessing if yours is 8-6 mine will be to.

Good luck and let me know if you find any good forums about the Case interview. I'll keep looking myself.

Anyone else out there get an interview?

Congrats! I really enjoyed the interview day. Got to talk to a lot of first year students as well as some second years and get their take on everything. It pretty much is an all day process. I think I was there from like 830 to 4. I know some people were there longer since on that particular day the last person we had to interview with wasn't able to interview till 330 bc he was in surgery.

As far as questions go mine were more personal based. If I recall I think you interview with about 6 different people and they are all different in terms of what they ask. Some just wanted to get to know you. One was to make sure you have all the prereqs. Since I'm in a Masters program now 2 people asked a lot of questions regarding that and what exactly my program entailed as well as my thesis project and research. Also since I am from Atlanta I got asked a lot about why I wanted to go to Case over Emory or South. So they kind of put me on the spot in terms of that and why I didn't want to pursue research. So I would say that they don't really have any set questions they seem to ask each interviewe.

Try not to get nervous and keep your composure. Easier to say then do but I tried not to stress about anything leading up to the interview. I had a few questions and answers rehearsed in my head that I thought they might ask which they never did. Make sure you have a question or something for them when they ask you if you have any questions for them. I just asked the same question to each person that interviewed me.
