Resident-

Have you recieved an interview from OSU yet? I'm out of state, but have their averages. I don't expect to be interviewed, but I don't know why I haven't been rejected yet! I just thought this was the school's way of being nice

Dr. Kermit,
Yes, I received an invitation from them back in early October and interviewed there on 10/17.
While speaking with the lady in the admissions office over the phone, she admitted that OSU was behind this year, and infact had extra interview days in November and this month.
Best of luck
