He's been following each and every one of my posts with some negative comment that serves to derail the discussion. My response had nothing to do with his criticism. I've flagged his posts and reported it to the mods, hence the leave me alone statement. This has been going on for some time now, so why don't you get the whole story straight before you go around calling me a little bitch.

I apologize I was not aware. Can we all just get back to the topic at hand.
 
You could email them but I'm not sure if it would be put in your file or make a difference in their interview decision. Did you list the research on your application?

I did list the research experience in my app, but I didn't mention anything about a publication because the manuscript has yet to be accepted. We submitted it to the journal, and we have gotten great feedback from the journal's editor in chief. We have been told that it may be accepted next month, or early Sept.

in my opinion the research experience is more important than the potential publication at this point, so they're already aware of your experience and if it comes up in an interview you'll have something else to talk about.
 
anyone know when UT-H start sending out interview invites? someone told me it was mid-august-ish last year...
 
Just received the "under review" email. Transmitted my TMDSAS on 7/24. It was very adamant that it was not an interview invite and to not contact their office about application status haha.

I was wondering how important is the written section for the MCAT for the UT-Houston admissions committee? I have an 11 in verbal and good LORs/essays but for whatever reason my written came out to be an L. The last two time I took the MCAT, my written was N and O respectively, but I think this time I was just forgot to save the first essay before it kicked me to the second one. I have a 32 over all with a 11P 11V and 10B..I also have a lot of experience with research presentation and have won presentation contests (which I included in the application). I am worried that this L may hold me back considerably.

I appreciate the help! Thank you!

Are you sure you have to save the essay? I thought it saves no matter what... I'm asking because I just retook last Saturday and let the time run out rather than hitting save...

I thought you had to save. Then again, it's been two years since I've taken the MCAT so I could be remembering incorrectly.

In other news, I only just received my confirmation email after transmitting 7/18. Ergh.

I bet the person who wrote that email was cracking up. It almost was farcical towards the end.

YOU. Yes, YOU!

Do NOT think is an INTERVIEW invite. If you email or call MY office, I will immediately set alight your WORTHLESS application and dance on the ashes.

YOU have been WARNED! AHAHAHA



:boom:

UTH is my #2. I'm praying I get an II and acceptance here. I hope they send out word soon. I'm literally pulling hair out from checking my inbox and seeing 0 messages or 1 message from groupon.

Methinks you're crazy if you believe Houston is less hot... I think of Houston as a sort of... industrial sauna.

But yes... I think tomorrow is a good bet 🙂 I am tired of being neurotic about checking my email.

👍

F'ing Groupon!! I just unsubscribed from them because of the number of near heart attacks they have given me :laugh:

Dude, haven't you heard?! Unsubscribing from Groupon during your app year is a major faux pas. They're big donors to med schools in Texas and they keep track of who unsubscribes and subsequently forward the delinquent's info to the adcoms ;-)
 
Anyone got II?

There's a very high chance that II will come out this week based on last years thread

At my last interview I met a guy who works here and he said he has been told the II will start this week. :xf:

Hahaha, nice!


Man, I hope you and I end up interviewing on the same day. Seems we'd get along pretty well, which would probably make for an awesome post-interview night of drinks. Am I right? Am I right?
 
Just got the invite! Initial day is 9/7 but I'm trying to reschedule to the following Friday. 🙂
31S, IS, 3.94

Hey TS, to which you email did you request an interview date change? I emailed the UTHinterviews that they gave within the email, but if you hit reply to the email, the address changes to a different name.
 
Interview invite this morning!! 🙂 It's for 9/14, but I got UT southwestern the next day, hopefully they can reschedule it.

Aye, captain. Tho my booshdaggery is amplified multi-fold in real life compared to my SDN persona. You'd realize that after my third Appletini.

I hope the prospect of missing out on my company doesn't weigh you down at all if you heard some good news today!

And congrats to the interview invitees! Do the thread proud.

I tried so hard to find that clip of Christina Applegate singing drunk karaoke from Up All Night. *sigh* FAIL.

Greetings potential classmates!!

Hey sorry for the late reply. I called up there and they said to respond to the UTHinterview email address. The lady emailed me back shortly after and rescheduled me for the 14th. Hope it worked out for you!
 
I had my Southwestern interview the day after my Galveston interview and it actually helped a lot. I had by far my best interviews at UTSW.
 
Cool, they were able to reschedule me to the 14th. yay
