For UChicago, are you emailing ON December 3 or do you think they meant to email BY Dec 3? I have limited access to email on the wards (hospital blocks it), so I would like to email now that I'm at home. Maybe I could schedule it?

Can someone clarify what "mostly behavioral" interviews means on the interview impressions tab. Like, does that mean each room or interviewer asks a behavioral question, or is it spitfire all behavioral questions? Im looking at the Uchicago and Mayo ones for references

<I also think people aren't going to give you a ton of details that they themselves didn't have the benefit of having when going into interviews for spots we are all competing for <yep<<i mean its not like im asking for the exact interview questions, im just more curious to hear about overall interview styles. rapid spitfire behavioral is much more different than just one behavioral question in each room.
