get over yourself. no one cares about YOUR MCAT scores. certainly not me.
but SDN is a useful source of info and i think you put out bad info here. there is no evidence that any schools split up MCAT scores and take the best in each. your cited source for that -- Princeton Review -- does NOT say that. do you have any other reason to believe that any school splits them up?
if you are wrong, which i think you are, some SDNer might make a retake decision based on inaccurate info.

So, all religious people love using anti-gay slurs? That's news to me...Typical religious person. You ask people to pray for you in your mdapps profile and then you use anti-gay slurs.
Wow this thread degenerated quickly. Happy holidays, everyone.So, all religious people love using anti-gay slurs? That's news to me...

Oh Plumpy, did your parents simply not love you enough?I never said they all did. You must not have done well in verbal.

huh, nice. just checked your mdapps. sorry you won't get to be a doctor, dude. ever worked with feet? maybe teeth?
ahhh,, can we please get back to the subject matter of this thread, rather than engage in mudslinging?! This is not presidential election, it's just a pre-allo forum
Everyone, please keep it civil and try to stay on topic.
Agreed, thank you. So does anyone else know of late interview invites? Are we more than half way through the season? Just trying to spark some different conversation. 😛
I have a gut feeling that many of the later interviews (after Feb) are for apps that were submitted later and the interviews for Feb, like you said, already have invites sent.I saw that Harvard's scheduling people for February already, 🙁. But then it's Harvard, I guess not many people are going to start declining interviews once they get into another school.

As for how accurate my hunches are, I'm not sure.
That's true too. I'm on quite a few pre-interview holds that I've been told are not indefinite.I don't know about that though. It depends on the school. Some schools may just work their way through the applicants once, but I know others do an initial review and decide to interview, reject, or re-review people. If you get a "re-review" you may get an interview later. I think Boston did this because I was complete there quite a while ago (maybe early Aug but I am not sure) and now am early in their second round of interviews. My guess is, they put me in some "hold" position and then decided to interview me after a second look. I am sure thats true for you as well. In my gut I think you will get more interviews (but my gut isn't exactly a magic 8 ball).

Last year, I got invited to MSU-CHM in mid-Feb for a late March interview. So I'm sure the invites will continue rolling until sometime in Feb or maybe even March for some schools.
Ugh, well, they might be done soon then because they only interviewed until Feb last year. I didn't apply to Harvard (no reason to waste my money) but this still bites for people who have it as their dream school.
Wow - everyone is ON EDGE. The holidays must really be screwing with you people. Schools are so specific on how quickly they like to fill their class, call and ask the ones you really are interested in.

Maybe for the most part this might be true, but i got 3 interview invites in yesterday and today for January interviews, (as early as Jan 11th)...
I was complete at all schools early Nov.

Michigan is so full of siht!!!!!
"Where you go to medical school can have as much of an impact on your life as why you chose to become a doctor in the first place" 😱😱😱😱
Are you sihting me????? 😱 I know each school wants to sell itself, but jeez, Michigan, a little modesty could go a long way. So glad didn't apply there!!!

temple acceptance... dwell on that..
don't go on sdn starting stuff, when you dont have the tenacity to post your own scores...
Sorry to bring back an old and unrelated topic, but I don't understand the string of obnoxious Michigan-bashing that went on earlier in the thread. So they made a typo on a web page. If you looked, I guarantee that you'll find a typo, somewhere, on just about EVERY med school's web page..it happens more than you think. So.. big deal. This was an immature rant about a great school with a great program.
Anyway... sorry to interrupt the thread, let's move on. 👍
Congrats on the invites - do you mind if I ask which schools?
are all these recent interview invites going only to those who applied late? any going to august applicants???
I got one about a week ago and I was complete there on 07/25 so there's still hope 🙂
Ditto. Just in time for the end to a lack-luster year too.i scour SDN for hours looking for a shred of info that will make me happy or encouraged. you just gave it to me!!! thanks.
your mdapps is blank. any chance you feel like sharing the name of the school? no worries of you would rather not.
Ooo congrats! You've certainly been doing well with such an aggressive list of schools. I hope that you do well with your interviews! I know that WUStL gets back to interviewees pretty quickly. Took my friend about a week.The invite was to interview at Washington University in St. Louis. I'll PM you guys my MDApps 'cause you seem interested.
