Yeah, I totally agree with you. You're not the first person to say exactly that. I requested feedback from all of the schools last cycle. Not everyone provided a reason. But from those that did, the reasons were all over the place from not enough volunteering hours to DAT not high enough (the 19AA). One school didn't consider my postbacc Masters. I got pretty sad when a school that had published lesser average matriculated stats didn't offer an interview. I had a phone consult with the admissions rep in February and I just flat out asked, is there something wrong with me or my app? She said no. The person said I didn't need to take any more classes, that my GPA is good, that my DAT is competitive for them, but they just simply have too many candidates to select from and qualified people will get turned down each cycle. Maybe this sounds stupid, but It did make me feel a little better. It is what it is. There's no guarantee for anyone in this. Just because you've done a lot, earned a good DAT, and earned good grades doesn't entitle you anything. If you get selected and admitted, everyone should be humble and feel fortunate. We can chat privately if you like. Don't want to veer from the purpose of this thread.
