I think I was evaluated on my graduate GPA because there are 5 years' worth of work in that, almost entirely BCPM. I THINK (but I don't KNOW) that UF considers BCPM GPA of higher value than Cum. My grad work was micro/molecular biology with a few chemistry and physics courses peppered in there, with a little over 40 GRADED credits. Undergrad GPA was... in the past.

3.82 BCPM/3.83 Cum (both are graduate GPAs; undergrad not reflected), 34

Complete late October, interviewed on Nov 22nd, accepted on Dec 17th.
 
Just got an II at 5 PM!!! 😀 So excited for UF 😍 😍 😍
 
Complete in August, 3.86 GPA, 33 MCAT 🙂
I also have a friend who was complete in september and received an interview, so there is hope for those still waiting! Good luck 🙂

You are too sweet, thank you for the good wishes! My interview is set for the 24th so I am thinking that they're setting up mid-to-late January interviews around this time.
 
Does anyone know if there is a second look day for accepted students? Couldn't find it on the website
 
I enjoyed my interview here. I heard they get back quickly too. Cool
 
Anyone know how many interview dates/spots are left at this point? I realize UF interviews till early March and there is still some time left but I just wanted to get a feel for the odds. So hard to stay patient these days! Also congrats to those who have received interviews/acceptances!

Judging by last year's application thread, it seems that if you call the admissions office, they are likely to let you know how many spots are left in the class and how many interview dates remain!

They interview on Fridays and there are roughly 20 people per group. I imagine they've booked this Friday already, but there are 4 more Fridays in Feb and one in early March. So, maybe ~100 people left to be interviewed?

Just one in March this year? I thought they had two, but maybe those were just for prior years.

UF; PLEASE SHOW ME SOME LURVE!!!
 
oh god. Times running out it seems :depressed:
UF, you don't have to love me, just throw me a pity interview.

Maybe there are two (or more). That was just an estimate. I have no idea exactly how many dates are left. You'd have to call them.

Anyone else who is still curious about this...I plan to call this week and ask! I fully expect them to be completely in awe of me and beg me to interview after this phone call, by the way...
 
I interviewed in the last group in December and if I remember correctly they said they would do 3 more rounds of acceptances in the spring. They discuss applicants every 3 interview days, so every 3 weeks.

So this means there should be 9 Fridays of interviews starting jan. 10. I could be wrong though, obviously the admissions office will be able to give you a more accurate number!

Hope that helps. This is just what I remember from my interview day. Good luck all!
 
Gave them a call today to ask how many interviews remain this cycle. The lady was very nice but would simply only tell me that interviews go into March. I even offered her some of my snickers but she still wouldn't give me any deets. But seriously. II. Me want it.
 
got an II today! for next friday, the 31st. 🙂 UF is one of my top choices, so I am extremely excited!!!

completed Dec 18
