is there anyone who completed like 20+ secondaries almost as soon as they came out and still with no interviews (and no rejection)?

Unless you have like a 38 and are getting auto-interviews, nobody has any yet. Relax.

That sounds like me.

For reals, only a few schools have given out interviews. We still got more waiting.

 

[Homoochan]

LOL still nothing.. anyone still on the same boat?

Most schools won't even start looking at your application until late August/September. A few schools haven't even sent out their secondaries. Relax, the admissions people need a vacation and what better time than now.

Many MANY people on SDN have already gotten multiple interview invites man

But then you know that SDN is full of overacheivers. Relax man.

But then you know that SDN is full of overacheivers. Relax man.

In case you haven't noticed, if you are NOT an overachiever, you will likely not be seeing the inside of a med school, let alone attending one.

But you all should relax for now. The vast majority of the interviews have not been handed out yet.

Start getting a teensy bit nervous around November if you haven't heard from anyplace.

Chill, those who didn't get an interview aren't posting much and besides, it's only a handful of schools that have sent out invites. Most haven't even started reviewing files yet.

 

[YouToo]

lol Some of my schools haven't even released secondaries. Chill!

I didn't apply this cycle but I was just wondering when i the typical time that schools start handing out interviews??

Thanks

YES!!! And I don't like it... it's turning me into a wierd anxious obsessive version of myself... an SDN version of myself 😉

Some schools start handing out in late July and early August.

He's right, I have a 38 and I'm getting mad interviews. I have 15 completes and 7 interviews and 1 acceptance already!!!!

Wait! just kidding! Half of us haven't even turned in secondaries yet, the adcoms have pre-determined dates when they will begin sending out interview invites. UCF said they wouldn't start until late August.

 

[rockaction]

Only a couple really on the ball private schools have started giving out interviews this early. We're talking Pittsburgh, Chicago, Mayo, Vanderbilt, Case Western, Michigan...and really only to people 34+. So I'd say relax. Most state schools (except the ones that pretend to be private *cough*OSU&UVA*cough*), which are the best shots for most people, haven't even looked at apps yet.

 

[sewcurious]

I still haven't gotten any. Leave it to SDN to make me nervous when I didn't realize there was a reason to be 🙂

 

[zayka]

Relax. You'll be okay! It's still only a few schools and only to people that were completed a while ago!

 

[anxiousteen]

it's still too early to worry. some people applying this year haven't even completed their mcat yet.

 

[CarlATHF]

Wait, am I the only one currently holding multiple acceptances to Harvard?

That's right, I'm so good they accepted me twice.

I have 34+ but haven't heard from ANY of those schools LOL

 

[ziggyd0c]

i'm part of this crew 😳

every time i whine about it i just try to remember how ridiculously early we are in this process... a lot of the schools are just finishing up dealing with the people who are matriculating THIS year

 

[dmblue]

It's august

 

[brooklynblunder]

I wonder what people in other professions get paranoid over.

rapper: yo anyone been standin by the grimiest of corner bodegas but haven't gotten shot yet? I need 6 more bullets for a gold album.
dorky engineer: anyone else 4 inches and above gotten laid yet?
graffiti artist: has anyone gotten accolades for canvassing modern abstract art in intricate public spaces of society, yet? nah man, only the peeps who painted the word "freedom" in swahili on the sewers beneath the empire state building got daps so far. chill!

 

[faith2]

Some of the posts are helping to ease my anxiety. I notice the private md schools I applied to still have not given secondaries yet. All of my state schools did. I live in the Sunshine State.

😕 class of 2014 I just dont know where yet!!!!!!!!!!!

it's august, don't even start to worry until november


stop it

 

[eyushva1]

im nervous as hell. im a reaplicant with a 32p, 3.81 gpa and 3.94 sci. i was complete at certain schools a while ago, and i noticed people getting interviews already who were complete several weaks after me. what's going on??? ex: buffalo, i was complete 7/2, im reading a ton of people already got interviews who were complete several weeks after that. i got an interview from them last year...and my application this year is loads better.

 

[causalinference]

Don't start worrying until much later in the cycle.

 

[jwrigh69]

For what its worth I had a 33Q, 3.94 overall & 3.89sGPA, tons of extracurriculars including shadowing experience, volunteer work, and employment in the largest emergency room in Georgia.. and my first interview offer didnt come until Late november/early december. I got the majority of my interviews in mid-december and the dates were like Jan 15th, Jan 30th, and then two more in march. Im starting on monday at WVU. Moral of the story, if your grades and scores are there.. don't worry.

 

[Sharka]

33/3.95 applied early and no love yet. still worrying even though people tell me not to.

 

[LAman10]

I have.... nothing 🙁
but that might be because I haven't uploaded my LORs....

They don't mark you as complete until they receive your LORs, no?

So in that case, they aren't even reviewing your file yet. Not to worry. 🙂

haha yeah I know, I was just trying to make a dumb joke (we need all the humor--even lame humor--that we can get in this process!)

 

[T12]

This is why Texas is awesome. 5 invites so far and I'll have most done before school even starts.

But I'm in the same boat as you guys with respect to AMCAS schools, so no worries.

 

[ibedoctorplz]

I'm in the same boat too

I just had to use that smiley. 😀

 

[ziggydoc]

Man I wonder what average ECs for the typical applicant is. Cuz compared to SDN, my ECs are below average, even tho I thought I did a good amount. SDN also makes me very worried about my 32S

I hate you all!!!!!!!!!!!!














J/K, but really, you guys scare me.

 

[ziggyd0c]

dude totally. everyone on here is like "4.8 GPA (all A++s), 57 on the MCAT, spent the last 2 years curing AIDS in orphans in Sudan, fluent in Japanese and Sanskrit, invented the Internet, founded Harvard medical school"

meanwhile i'm sitting here going "what did i do that summer... oh yeah, mostly partying" oh well, even if my GPA is kind of low i still can't have regrets because college was a blast lol. just need to get in somewhere!!!!

 

[scooter02]

Crap, still nothing... I know it's early... but I'm really impatient!! And lots of people complete WAY after me at several schools have interviews, according to SDN at least... where is mine? I would take even just one. 😕

 

[danimjo]

Texas is way early in the cycle, I thought it was crazy how many people were complete on the Texas apps (primary and secondaries) back in June, I felt like I was seriously behind getting everything done in July.

 

[McPoyle]

seriously? you do realize its not even September right? RELAX!!!! Have a drink, get laid, and enjoy the time before interview and school starting.

Oh, and never, ever, ever, judge your progress based on the neurotic self reporting sample of SDN. You will find this site greatly skewed.

Sheeesh... peeps, take it easy.

 

[brooklynblunder]

it will pick up when committee member's kidz go back to school

You are a good applicant even with sdn standard. I see no reason why you should worry.
