Do you know about the 4x(GPA)+ PCAT equation they use? Basically, if the score is above 150 they invite you for an interview. I feel like anyone who can secure an interview basically is 50% guaranteed to be admitted considering they interview about 400 and accept about 200.

Only minimal experience, I shadowed a family friend that happened to be a pharmacist in the really small town that I'm from

[rxuga2016]

Anybody got the letter today? Still nothing for me.. I guss I'll just wait for February.

 

[potatoesgonpotate]

I haven't received a letter yet and I live in Athens. I would be lying if I said I wasn't disappointed.

PCAT: 98
Cumulative GPA: 3.9

 

[704743]

I haven't. I'm starting to get very nervous.

Wow! You should have definitely gotten in! It's crazy that you didn't. Maybe the mail is unusually slow? Hmmmm


I haven't gotten anything yet either.

I'm hoping that's the case. I felt confident after my interview, but I'm beginning to think I bombed it. I also didn't finish the essay at the interview, so I wonder if that could've severely impacted my chances.
Do you mind posting your stats?

Yeah I thought I did well on the interview too. This is really strange.

Mine are: Gpa: 3.2 and PCAT :92

 

[rxuga2016]

I thought I did pretty good at interview too.. With your stats you should have gotten in immediately.

My stat is not as good as your s with, but honestly I thought I could get int this round

[YOWAT]

Anyone still waiting? we need wait feb?

 

[KK06]

Has anyone applying RD received an interview offer yet?

 

[RXadm]

Anyone know how many people they have accepted? I got my application in late (before the deadline) but I have a ~3.4 cumulative GPA and a 78 composite score. Do I still have a chance to get an interview?

I think ~30 have been accepted

 

[RXadm]

my PharmCAS verification is taking foreverrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr

 

[RXadm]

Just got my interview e-mail! I think I'm in one of the last interview slots. Does anyone know when UGA typically sends out acceptance letters after the final round of interviews?

 

[littleowl]

The bulk of UGA's acceptance letters go out the first week in April. Hope that helps!

Yayyyy! More classmates

 

[RXadm]

Was anyone asked what you are planning to do if you don't get into pharmacy school during your interview?

 

[RXadm]

Would it be inappropriate to ask how many spots are left in specific 2+2 locations during my interview?

 

[Trishna28]

I personally would not ask that. It might come across as trying to gain undue advantage. My personal philosophy is to err on the side of caution during school/job interviews. Plus, if you even slightly feel it might be inappropriate, then it probably is.

Btw, going over the interview feedback page on SDN for individual schools really helped me prepare for interviews.

For those of you that mailed your seat deposit, could you please tell me how long it took for UGA to receive and/or cash it?

Thanks!

You're probably right. Thank you for your advice!

I agree. SDN has been very helpful so far!
