Interviews with August '02 MCAT???

i'm pretty sure the answer to your question is yes, but i don't have anymore info than that. it seems like i've read of at least one person on here...

 

A friend of mine took the August MCAT and has received 3 interviews so far He has interviewed at GWU and USUHS. He found out this week about another interview at MCW. He had taken the MCAT before. I won't post his stats, since they are not mine, but he isn't a URM. There is hope for us August MCATers. I find myself checking the mail obsessively but realistically I don't expect any interview invites for atleast a couple of weeks since schools are just beginning to receive my new scores. Good luck to all August MCATers and the interviews will come soon.

 

I hadn't ever taken the MCAT before August, so I'm waiting by the telephone, waiting for an interview invite. Waiting! It can drive one insane. Good thing SDN is around, or I'd be forced to take up knitting.

 

yeah i'm still waiting too...kinda depressing that so many people already interviewed and I haven't ...worried all the spots are going to be taken away...

I have 2 interviews upcoming so far prob b/c of my previous mcat score...but for the new ones i'm still waiting

 

I have had interviews at Vandy, UCHSC, Pitt, and an invite from NYMC. I took the August 2001 and August 2002 MCATs and am reapplying this year. While some schools chose to process my app with my first score, others held my apps until the new score came in. Unfortunately, I didn't
improve, so it all turned out to be a futile effort.

Stats:
3.65 GPA (3.62 BCPM) from a good school
34 S August 2001
34 Q August 2002

BTW: I checked today on N'western's app status page, and the "HOLD FOR AUGUST MCAT SCORE" box changed from a yes to no today. So schools may have alrady received August MCAT scores, or I will soon be getting a rejection from them. Oh well.

 

me too! woo hoo! this is the first indication that anyone has gotten my scores. pretty sad i can get excited about something so silly.

 

ha, you're not the only one that gets excited over these silly things lola btw, I just checked Pitt's status page and they too seem to have the August MCATs

 

I checked my AMCAS application yesterday and all the schools I applied to re-downloaded my application earlier this week to get my new August scores.

 

i'm still waiting on vandy, but all the other schools that get the data electronically from amcas seem to have my scores now. yipee!

p.s. my status has been updated at pitt as well!

 

How often does Northwestern get updates? It's the only school that hasn't received a transmission since my AMCAS was verified on September 30. All of the other schools have updated at least twice since then. The only transmission date I have for NU is September 3, way before my application was verified. Do you guys think there is something wrong? Or does NU just not receive updates of the application as often as other schools?

 

have you looked again recently? mine just went up today. it says oct 17... even though my status on their website changed before that. weird.

 

Bumpin' to see if any love has been shown to Aug MCATers!

 

Nah, nothin new's percolating. Rush put me on hold (I believe I am joining the proverbial club here )

 

i took the august mcat for first time, i have an interview at Cinci, and got someting from downstate that they will contact me in december is setup an interview

 

I submitted primary AMCAS sep 30th. It was verified around mid october. took aug 02 MCAT for first time. Completed about 10 of 20 secondaries and no interview invites.

first time august mcater, verified 10/3......interivew at UF

 

Hey august people,
I've got Rush, Vanderbilt (on Valentine's day..), and SLU.
I've also developed an unhealthy obsession with waiting for the mail. Seriously, I just want every school to send me something, anything!!! even a rejection. then i wouldn't have to harass the mailman.

 

Feeling loved!
GWU interview! Secondary submitted many moons ago...waiting on a little August MCAT action!
YEAH!

 

I took the Aug MCAT and recieved an interview from a Texas school just the other day. MCAT 29. GPA 3.86. Hope that eases your mind. My stats aren't that great and they wanted to talk to me. Good luck.

 

I am an August MCATer...33P MCAT 3.61 GPA. I just got an interview with U of Nebraska. I am a resident though, and I believe they send out interview invites to all NE residents...oh well, that's where I wanna go (so I can move back home and mooch of my parents so, I'm excited!!! Other than that I haven't had any interviews...but that may be at least partly due to the fact that one of my professors has not sent out my LORs yet

 

OMFG!!!!! (There's no screaming smilie) UCLA interview!!!!! My first--I'm an interview virgin!!! Sorry, I'm shaking so much I can hardly type. Check in later!

 

congrats nefertari!!! and everyone else too. hopefully i'll be lucky enough to get an interview one of these days...

 

Lola, hang in there! I'm feeling a good vibe about your future soon...seriously. I was out of town for three days and couldn't check my mail. I knew, when I came back, it would have a fat envelope. Same vibe. You'll get one soon, too!

 

lola, gracias! Have faith, this is the month when we aug mcaters are starting to hear back . . . Finally! Btw, noticed your absence this weekend--hope you had a great birthday getaway!

Pinki, I know what you mean @ that vibe. Today, on the way home from work, I bought a lottery ticket (only won $1), but then found out @ the interview when I got home & went thru my ritual of status-checking online.

 

Congrats, nefertari!!

lola, your day is coming soon, I can feel it! Happy belated birthday, and hang in there.

 

Thanks, SMW! Nice to finally receive your smilie treatment!
