Hi friends,
I applied before turning in my MCAT and did not fare well on one section. I did not turn in secondaries at the majority of schools after. I will be taking my MCAT in April and have been studying. It turns out I accidentally did not withdraw my app from one DO school that I did apply to - it was literally on my mind today to do so when they sent an interview invite while I was at work today (funny how that works). Will I get docked next year for not interviewing? It could be a school I would go to but not ideal as I have a sick family at home and would rather go to an instate school (DO or MD). And besides, I am already gearing up to reapply and am not in a mindset to interview on a whim. What would be the best way to decline this interview without severing ties with the school for the upcoming cycle?
