Update for today:

I noticed in my interview invitation email that it was for "entering class of 2011." I called this morning and they said they're having technical difficulties and that they would be canceling my interview (and others that received one), but then sending out another (for the same interview day) SOON. So, maybe those of you that did not get one yesterday will get one when they get their system figured out and send out the invites again.

👍 I still have the "Pending" status even though it's all been complete for at least two weeks now. Pretty sure I hate that word now... Lol

Haha, sometimes I wish I hadn't discovered SDN after seeing the interview invites start and not hearing anything. Just gotta have patience I guess. You send me a UTMB interview and I'll find an El Paso one for you 😉

good news is they started sending new invites for 8/19
 
Hey guys, if you aren't true after 10 days for the secondary categories contact admissions. Apparently there is a glitch in the system.
 
Finally went all "true" today! Still says "pending" though...

How long did it take for everything to be true, or at least for them to download your primary from the time it was submitted

I was transmitted on 6/22, and if I remember correctly, my primary + MCAT scores were finally registered as true sometime last week.
 
so I've been "under review" for awhile and had all "trues" before that, but apparently A&M doesn't have my updated residency information from TMDSAS. I called admissions and they said they have to download the information from TMDSAS but it's been a month since I updated my residency info. Has anyone had problems with certain information not going through to the schools? should I wait a little longer?
 
Got an interview!!!!

Effff yeaaaaa!!!!!!
 
I moved my interview to teh 26. i rsvp'ed for later. Thanks everyone!

So does A&M give you interview date options to choose from? Or do they assign you a single date?

They give you an initial option. You either RSVP yes, no or later. Yes is i will confirm that date. No is im withdrawing my app. Later is ill reschedule to this date.

FutureMD-Haha . Blind faith paid off👍

Awesome, thanks BMEN! and congrats again on your 4 interview invites!
 
Hey guys,

I just looked over my secondary application (which I already submitted). I noticed that one of my essays did not format correctly. Three of the paragraphs combined and now look like one run on paragraph. Is this something I might want to contact the admissions office about?

Mine did the same. So no worries.
 
WOO! Got an email from AirTran airways! They are having a 72 hour inventory clearance! Who needs an interview invite when you can get discount prices on your next cruise! FML
 
I hate being an undergrad at A&M right now. Every time I get a stupid university update or financial aid email I get all excited. FML.

Lol I hate those emails too! Gets me all hyped up every time...
 
So for those of you who get interviews later, if you pick a later interview date it will say 2010. So just call the number they give you in an email and speak to one of the staff and they happily will fix it for ya.
 
Just randomly checked and I got all trues. Not sure if it was changed to day or yesterday but ill take it. I am still pending but at least it's complete!

I'm just waiting for my MCAT score on Tuesday. Once that is "true" then hopefully it doesn't take too long to be in review!

keep in mind it might take like a week or so to mark you for the MCAT. Maybe sooner, but they were really slow getting my mcat.

Is it about 2 weeks to get "under review"? How long after you were "under review" did you receive an interview.
