If you don't mind me asking, when did UoP send you the "app under review" email and how long after the "app received" one was that sent?

I got the 'app under review' email 5 days after AADSAS sent my application to them. I had paid the supplemental about a month earlier.

I think we all decided to assume that when you said UoP you meant UPenn and not University of the Pacific. Were we right? Either way congrats!

It is kind of sad that I find myself disliking weekends and looking forward to Mondays now because that means the adcoms are in the office and can send out interview invites.

From last year's thread, they seem to send out throughout the day and on Mondays and Wednesdays.

It looks to me that they especially value high RC (>24/25), although that's only based on the ~5 people that just posted?

Or Columbia just has competitive enough applicants that they can select for both high DAT scores and the other factors that make an applicant well-rounded. Don't be salty just because you didn't get an interview offer.

Also if Columbia consistently selects for high DAT they have a good reason, not "just want high stats". High DAT score probably correlates with strong performance in their dental program.
