I got an interview for ICO before I took the OAT. I just took the OAT last week and I only got under 300 in one section.

Overall: 320
Total Science:320
Reading: 340
Chem: 330
Organic: 310
BIO: 290
PHY: 340
QR: 330

GPA 3.4

Do I still have a shot of getting in.

P.S. I interview at ICO on Feb. 15th

I think i have read about a few like this on sdn before, however....they have like 3.8+ Gpa's and stuff.

Either way , congrats and good luck! Since you already have the interview, im sure they can tell you if there is anything you need to improve. Also you can check here to see if anyone else's stats match yours who got accepted to ICO.

Bumping this post up. Anybody this cycle receive an interview before they took the OAT? I've read in the past mostly people with high GPAs. My GPA for all my pre-reqs is 3.9 and I have it listed that I'm scheduled to take the OAT in November on my app so I'm hoping this will happen for me, but I wanted to actually confirm it with someone that actually had this happen. Submitted my app on 9/25, but still being processed. Thanks!

I was invited to interview at PCO and Suny before taking the OAT. My pre-req gpa is around 3.8.
Just for reference, i submitted my app at the end of August and received invites for the interviews around mid september (cant remember exact dates off the top of my head). I am also taking my OAT in November.

I have my interview for PCO in 2 days and I haven't taken the OAT since 2009. Clearly these score are expired, so I'm now confused. But from what I read, some schools will invite you for an interview based on your academics and rest of the packet before receiving scores. I take my OAT in 1week and I'm extremely nervous!! In 2009 I got 280AA twice 🙁 and I'm deathly afraid of a repeat of that experience!!!

Any advice? What is the likelihood of interviewing with a school, and then getting below a 300AA and still getting offered a seat?

Yeah, my pre-req GPA is a 3.5 and overall 3.4.....

I also got invited to ICO sans OAT. My science GPA (OPTOMCAS) is 3.59; overall GPA 3.79 (I'm a psych major, so I have quite a few non-science credits).

Nervous for OAT 11/20. (Physics, eek).

Does anybody have any information about how their interviews went before taking the OAT?
