I know its rare that schools offer interviews without DAT scores, but what about before receiving LORs? rarely as well??

this will pretty much be my situation since the pre-health committee at my school moves at a turtle's pace when it comes to these letters😡😡
 
I'm wondering the same thing. All my schools are just waiting on my committee letter as well. I know it is getting sent out this Friday so I am excited about that, but I am not sure if schools hand out invites before they receive the LOR's. I wouldn't think they would but who knows. I know my letter from my dentist has been sent out so I'm hoping I'll start hearing back from schools within the next week or two after my committee letter has been sent out as well.

Most wait until you have a complete application on file before moving forward though. well unless something about your app that is really unique like scoring a thousand on the dat
