I'm curious as to what factors ASDOH uses to place applicants in the "high list", the "middle list" or the "low list"?

Is the placement of one's name based solely on the interview performance?

Or did some committee look at the applicant's profile after the interview, looked at the DAT scores, the GPA and the interview performance, then placed the applicant in a particular list?

Does the school tell you what "list" you are on if you ask? I'm just curious because I did not know they placed applicants in these lists.

Thanks
 
I don't even think they know what the criteria is most of the time.

Obviously DAT scores, GPA, and your overall application are taken into account in order to get an interview, but after that it seems the actual interview is what counts. If you have a great interview then it probably doesn't matter at all what your scores are.
