How long after Case cashing your check, did you guys get an invite for interview or a rejection letter??
Case cashed my check yesterday...
 
Case rejection here too about a week after receiving the packet.

Yeah, the thing with Case is that they really like high GPA
I just check predents
Someone with 3.25 GPA got an interview with 24/22/21 DAT
Low GPA= need 24+ DAT

I guess you are talking about me.
yeh I needed high DAT to have any chance with CASE.
I had 23AA/24TS/22PA.
 
what other schools like high gpa? I guess those are the schools i'm aiming for right now since my DAT is just avg.
 
Received a letter from Nova today.
Unfortunately, I was taking a nap and missed the mail courier.
So now I have to wait 'til Monday to see what it said.

Darn you insomnia! lol

what do you think Case thinks about 3.84 science and cumulative GPA 24TS/22AA/18PA with 17 in RC!?
 
Rejected @ Case ...letter dated Aug 3rd.
I figured I would get a bunch of these...just didn't know when.

Nah, don't worry about it man. Probably because of your gpa. I think Case is one of the few ones that doesn't let you make up a low gpa with a good DAT score.

If you go to their website, their requirement is that you have to have above 18 RC. But there is this one person on predents that got 16 RC and got interview.

I think you should call them and ask if you want to be sure

Mailed (Third Batch) July 17


UMDNJ: App Received 7/21
UPenn: App Received 7/23, Packet arrived 7/29
NYU: App Received 7/24
BU: App Received 7/30
Tufts: App Received 7/30
Columbia: App Received 7/31

HOW MANY TIMES MAY I TAKE THE DAT AND WHEN SHOULD I CONSIDER RETAKING THE DAT?
A recent ADA ruling limits the number of times you can take the DAT to three. Applicants who score less than 17 on either the academic average or total science or less than 18 on the reading section of the DAT will not be considered for an interview.

Schools are a lot more lenient than they claim to be. They would accept a 27AA with a 17 RC.

I sent out my electronic on July 3rd and was mailed out on July 10th.. don't worry, I think Temple sends out secondary to everyone who meets their prerequisites, if my assumption is correct...
