On the results search someone got an invite to Princeton MolBio on 12/2 while I got mine 12/12. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Haha I was asking which division within CAMB. You could ask if you could be moved weekends I guess, for both schools. It's still pretty early in the game. I had to do that with Dartmouth, and I interviewed on an alternate weekend at University of Michigan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Which division within UPenn CAMB did you apply to? Oops I applied for a concentration in cancer biology. I have an excel file with all the dates and if the UPenn calendar online is correct they have an admissions weekend 2/23-25 that would fit all my potential schedules. Would it look bad if I asked to do the latest date? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hihello742 Posted December 14, 2016 Share Posted December 14, 2016 (edited) Hi All, Has anyone received interview invites from West Coast UC schools? It's nerve wracking seeing the interview invites for most UC's go out by mid-Dec during last 2015 season, and it's creeping up. Although nobody has posted in the admissions results page. Cheers!

I got a call from Davis BMCDB last week, he said they would send emails "shortly" but it has been a week now...I was in the middle of a frantic shift at work and initially picked up because I thought it was my mom, so my recollection is not as precise as I want it to be hihello742 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's hard to concentrate at work. I submitted my applications on the morning of the Dec-1 deadlines, so hopefully that's not going to delay or hurt my chances.

Why do people act like this is a big deal? I guess I have a bit more experience with job interviews than most here. If you can't make a date for whatever reason people will work with you. I'm phone interviewing someone on Friday and he had to reschedule due to another phone screen. I didn't take that as a slight at all. If he is good, we will give him an offer (after an on site interview). If he isn't, we won't. Simple as that. A candidate would have to insult the company to me for it to hurt his chances. Like, okay if a person said "I can't do your interview because I have a way better interview at google that day" I might worry that he would rather work at google than my company. But if he said "I'm sorry but I'm busy that day." or "I'm sorry but I already have a prior obligation on that day." I would think nothing of it. The people dealing with the interview dates are not the ones deciding on your admission anyway.
