I just took it this morning so I’m not sure about Kira score but I have an 18AA, 3.6 undergrad, 4.0 masters, lots of research, shadowing, and volunteering.

So my undergrad covered everything except for human anatomy, physics, and the second semester of organic chemistry. I am currently just finishing the last pre-recs right now. I am a nontraditional student coming from a career in data science from a large health system.

I am hoping that this Kira leads to an interview. I am waitlisted at KCU, Midwestern AZ. I would really like to go here though. I hope all goes good for you too!

I am not sure that’s accurate info. I am not sure anyone really knows. I think they were going off of the group me numbers

I see you have been a member since 2014. Have you been applying for dental school since 2014?

Not applying for 10+ years, but I've been a pre-dental student for that long. Had some life events that held me back a few years, but I've been diligently taking pre-requisite courses, pursuing other degrees, working in different fields, and finally, here I am. It took me a total of 4 cycles, though.

 

[AzkabanRaven]

I'll be dropping my seat at Lyon College. I got accepted to my dream school and will gladly attend there. I hope the seat goes to someone who truly deserves it. Wishing you all the best of luck!

How long after the Kira assessment the interviews will be sent?

How long did it take after your Kira until you got the interview invite?

I applied as soon as I got an email from ADEA but I’m. It sure if I’ll get an interview based on the amount of seats that are already taken according to some posts on here.

I asked admissions that, & they said they are open to all students, not just specifically Arkansas residents.

 

[QueenSpeech1972]

I just applied tonight as I just received the email about the school the other day. Just curious as to how people knew about this school.

 

[gundie88]

Congratulations! When did you apply?

Thank you! I submitted February 4th, I got my Kira last Thursday and my in person interview invite today.

Quick question…how did you submit your rec. letters since we don’t have them? For AADSAS, my letters went through interfolio so I don’t even have them to upload. Help please 🥴

I used Interfolio as well. Login, go to the delivery tab, click new delivery, choose email, and then select the letters you want to email to Lyon. Does that help?

I think a lot of people are interviewing the 24th since they just got initial accreditation and Lyon got inundated with apps. Most schools already picked their class too I think. The hotel was almost full when I made my reservation.

 

[toothdeamon]

Good luck guys and gals on you interviess. do they waitlisted people

 

[ALEXAAA]

Thank you! I submitted February 4th, I got my Kira last Thursday and my in person interview invite today.

I did my Kira last Friday but have not heard back! should I be worried?

I wouldn't be too concerned. From what other folks have stated, there are a couple more interview dates at the very least so I would hang in there. Good luck!
