*~*~* Official 2019-2020 AADSAS Interview/Acceptance/Rejection Thread *~*~*

[keep learning]

Hi. because my first DAT was taken in Sep. 2017(its two years old now, more and more ppl are having higher DAT scores). I already applied two times in 2017(one interview) 2018(no interview) and didnt get in . My gpa is lower than the average, so i figured maybe a higher DAT could make me more competitive

Thanks for the explanation! Great work!

For Midwestern - AZ, does anyone know what type of interview is held? I couldn't find any specifics in the interview invite email. Is it a 1on1, 2on1, open/closed file, etc.. ?

I think there’s a group part of the interview because I have a buddy there now and he said that they have current students sit in on the interviews. Hope this helps a little bit. I will ask my friend what his experience was like.

Guys.. I know it is still early for the cycle but I applied to USC, Michigan, Colorado, Case, Western, Iowa, and Lecom... None of them give me an interview yet .. i saw so many people received interviews with later submission date than mine ... is that mean schools don't like my application ??

when did you submit/get verified? I know for Michigan it depends on when you received the app complete email. Most schools are rolling admission - they review apps in the order they are received.

I saw your GPA and DAT scores in another thread
you just have to be patient
as long as your PS and LORs are at least decent, you should be ok, although your school list seems a little haphazard

 

[miamitoothfairy]

Technically yes because I remember around 8 spots open for October after I picked mine and about 10 in November. Thank you!! Don't get too down about it because Nova interviews into March. If you haven't heard anything, you're still in the running for an interview
