I was complete on 7/15 28 mCAT and 3.8 GPA. Should I be worried that I haven't received an interview invite yet? or am i freaking myself out?

I'm freaking out as well.
3.4/31
Where was the other from?Got two II's today. One of them is from DMU! 3.95 sgpa/cpga, 26 MCAT. Strong ECs and personal statement.
LECOM-B. I was complete for both schools around July 10th, I believe.Where was the other from?
Just got a ii today as well! Im so excited as it is my first one. My stats are 37, 3.9s, 3.7ns. Ill probably be scheduling for late sept/early oct. I have a few questions for current students. How are the research opportunities? Also is medical oncology a well represented specialty for electives? Thanks!
Is this a typo?
No lol, I realize I am highly above average for DO, but I am legitimately very interested in Des Moines. I think it seems like a great program compared to some MD schools, and I must admit the fact that they offer impressive scholarship packages to top applicants has me interested. (Funds are a issue due to my pharmacy education ).
Wow! I'm speechless! Great to hear. Congrats!No lol, I realize I am highly above average for DO, but I am legitimately very interested in Des Moines.

Just got my "under review" email )
All my stuff was already in, but I submitted the secondary 2 days agoWhen did you submit?
It's been like 6 days, I'm sure your app is still under review!I received the complete notification from DMU on July 24th and haven't heard anything since then...thoughts on what this means? 3.3/32 OOS.

Right, but why would they send an II to someone who was complete after me nlolNot sure if it is similar to last cycle, but DMU mentioned in their complete e-mails that it could take up to 60 days to hear from them. I actually received my interview invite on day 59 last cycle.
Don't get worked up if you haven't heard back within a week. Some people will hear back quickly and others will take what seems like forever to hear back.
You have solid stats and shouldn't be worried about anything, just give it some time. Last I looked DMU receives something like 3500 to 4000 applications? Correct me if I'm wrong but that's a lot of paperwork for people to look through and choose interview invites.
I'm in the same position as you. I wouldn't worry about it until you receive a rejection letter.Right, but why would they send an II to someone who was complete after me nlol
Different sets of eyes seeing the applications. And it's obviously not all about numbers. Having good stats doesn't guarantee anyone anything.Right, but why would they send an II to someone who was complete after me nlol
~1.5-2 days for me.How long from submitting everything to receiving email stating your complete?
I had posted above when I was complete.After application being complete, how many days after did you guys receive II?
Wow you got your II within a week after being complete, impressive!I had posted above when I was complete.
Thank you! I was pretty surprised with the turn around myself .Wow you got your II within a week after being complete, impressive!
I'm on board with you!Mine is August 29th. Anyone else interviewing with me?
You should retake, I know it seems harsh but it is hard to make up for a 6 and you can improve that with just a couple weeks of good verbal prep. My fiend got a 10/6/11 and after working through EK and TPR verbal in just two weeks he got a 11/11/11Think I'll get any love with a 24 (8/6/10)? Rest of my app is solid.

Those stats are comparable to some MD programs! If more DO schools get comparable to MD stats, people will drop their assumptions that we only apply to DO if we don't think we can get into MD. I am applying to both and will likely choose a DO over an MD.For anyone wondering how competitive you are, our class profile just went up recently

A little drop in gpa and a tiny increase in MCAT since the c/o 2017

How did you find out? Email?Cool, I've got a low mcat score and I just got put on hold. Figured I'd be rejected.
How did you find out? Email?
I have no idea. I never even received log in info, just email communications.What is this"portal" everyone is talking about? Whenever I go to the website it just says "application submitted" on a page that is extremely user unfriendly lol
I would like to second this, any ideas?What is this"portal" everyone is talking about? Whenever I go to the website it just says "application submitted" on a page that is extremely user unfriendly lol
