I recently received an interview invitation for a school and they have a lot of open interview dates. Everything from late August to Early/Mid/Late September, October etc. I'm wondering if there is any benefit of doing an interview in two weeks rather than the end of September or something like that? If I understand correctly, the soonest I could be offered an acceptance would be October 15th. I remember the stress of waiting a month for my MCAT scores so I'm thinking the less time spent waiting to hear back from the school the better. Am I missing anything here?

If you expect to have several interviews, you might want the earlist one to be a school you are less enthusiastic about so that the interview there is a "dress rehearsal" for the interview at the school that is more important to you.
