I have had quite a lot of time on my hands as I'm waiting for interview invites, so I put together a sheet that averages the initial invite dates over the past 4 years, calculates the standard deviation, and then from that information gives an estimated range of when that specific school will send out their first batch of interviews.
Special thanks to artist2022, I referenced their interview invites tracker to make this sheet. This sheet is of course overkill, and isn't very helpful for this cycle since most schools have sent out their first invites. But it should be helpful for future cycles. The lower the standard deviation, the more confident I am in that date prediction. Last week I made a prediction about Penn's invite based on this sheet, and I was right, so if that adds any reliability there's that! So because of that I added all the dental schools, not just the ones I'm applying to.
I'm in no way a statistician, so this is just meant for people to get a general idea.
Good luck everyone as we wait!
