Sooooo true, although I will admit it's much easier to agree with/accept this once you have a few interviews under your belt.
Definitely.
But I've gone through the process twice already (in Texas only). It's the primary reason I even feel comfortable saying that while sitting on interviews.
Someone correct me if I'm wrong, but IIs will always come through email. Regardless of which school it is.

Not always. Case Western never emailed me.
Interesting.. That seems foolish. Checking all the portals is exhausting.

That's why I check SDN. Someone is neurotic enough to check for me lol
So I got an II last Wednesday and went in to schedule the interview after sorting out travel plans this week, but all the previously available dates in October are grayed out. What's going on here? Georgetown's admissions department doesn't answer the phone apparently. There's no future dates available in November either.

They've been filled with other interviewees.
So wait, am I just screwed then? There's nothing available in November.
E: When I checked on Tuesday there were like 7-8 days available. How could all of them have been filled already?

Just a heads up, when I checked this morning to schedule mine, it showed no available dates. Just totally blank. Gave them a call and they said they had openings on the 11th, 12th, 13th, and 17th-20th. I think there must be some problem with their system if yours are grayed out as well. Just give them a call and they'll schedule it for you! Based on the time of your post, they may have been at lunch when you tried to call them today. Or if it is a system problem, they likely have several interviewees calling in about the issue, and are super busy.
II this afternoon! Pretty pumped, my first one! Mcat 513, LizzyM 72, non-trad applicant. Submitted 7/26. I scheduled my interview today, no issues with the system.
nice!!! congrats!! thanks for sharing!
Awesome! When did you schedule yours for?
Yep, still in limbo.
Yep. The Med School interview invitation process is completely random though so we just gotta stay the course. Thankfully, it's only mid-August so its not time to panic yet.
Does your guys' status say "Application is under review"?
Yes, complete 7/5
just submitted my secondary but my status says they haven't recieved my LORs yet even though I sent them through AMCAS
anyone have a similar problem?

Why did you withdraw? Do you already have your secondary submitted and have just been waiting on the II? What was the benefit of withdrawing?
I am not asking to criticize, I am just genuinely curious.
Probably because @Divine Comedy has been wrecking this application cycle and has II from other higher-priority schools. 🙂
