"there are about 18-20 applicants a day and we are divided into the morning group and afternoon group. Some of us come in by 7:20am and will leave at the end of lunch (around 12:30pm). The afternoon group comes in for lunch (around 11am) and will leave around 3:30. If you are in the morning group, prepare to interview immediately! They gave us 10 minutes to eat some breakfast and we started right away. We had 5 interviews. 3 of them are with various faculty and can last anywhere from 20-40 minutes (depending on how much you talk). Everyone meets with the PD and chairman in a span of 30 minutes for both. They usually have it divided well so that you get the Chairman for 15 minutes and the PD for 15 also. I didn't know this and didn't feel like I got to say everything I wanted with the Chairman so beware!!! After the morning interviews, we had a tour. Some of you will have a one on one tour with the chief residents. This depends on when your break is in between interviews. And then there is a final group of about now 4-5 applicants who take the final tour of that half of the day. Then lunch where the PD and Chairman will give their talk. Do not expect a powerpoint. They are both very animated talkers. Then you can leave afterwards, there is no wrap up. The afternoon group has a similar day but they start with the PD and chairman talk/lunch and then go on to interviews or tours before ending the day."
