Hey SDNers.. i wanted to know if anyone had the experience of going to an early interview then being advised by admissions to put your application on hold to re-take DATs? I thought if you received an interview then your stats were competitive. feedback please...
can be provided by ADCOM memebers only.
I've heard a couple of stories as urs.
Maybe, you did really poor interview? Left a strong negative impression?
Otherwise, it's possible while u are interviewing, they find more competitive candidates whom ADCOM members are making comparision with you.
Another explanation can be..
that's because they like all other components of your application packet from AADSAS except for that specific scores. As u are applying to that school, u are responsibile for meeting their criteria. Hence they will automatically think u will take extra time & effort to meet their criteria.
If u make it, u will become a highly competitive candidate at that school.
Otherwise, they will likely to regard u as an applicant who is no longer interested in their program. Plus, if you didn't meet that scores, your application will become weaker. But, u may be selected by luck at any time, after applicant flow after December, or just now either by luck or your competitiveness!
That's my opinion~
