*** Official interview 2009 cycle thread ***

This forum made possible through the generous support of SDN members, donors, and sponsors. Thank you.
I'm getting really worried- haven't heard from anyone. Do you think I'll get interviews? Applied to USC, UCLA (yeah, right), UIC, and Marquette.

Those are pretty decent stats. When did you apply? Seems like the early birds are the ones that have received interviews. My stats are similar to yours and I have receive several invites but I was done with my app on May 26 or so. Went out on the first aadsas mailing.
 
I know that Marquette doesn't do interview invites until later this month/early October....
 
Mine was pretty early, too. I think it was June 6 or so. Seems like this application cycle must be super competitive. The stats for some of the rejected applicants are pretty impressive.
 
it is more than just stats. Volunteer work, community service, age, School attended, LOR. There are many factors.

masksof2004, congrats! When did you submit your AADSAS application? I applied to UCONN too, and it says on AADSAS that my file is received and complete at the school. I'm still waiting to hear from them, hopefully....

Oh, btw, for anyone who is going to SUNY Buffalo's interview, do you know what the "10 minute case scenario discussion" is? And is the writing sample just an explication of why you want to go into dentistry? 😕
 
USC Sep. 25th

what do you mean (yeah, right) for UCLA, is it a bad school? i was planning to transfer there..
 
I think he was implying its out of his league, but I could be wrong
 
Yeah. I also believe he/she was implying that they did not believe they could get in. UCLA looks to be tough to be admitted to (what school isn't?) but from the stats I've been researching, the standards seem on the high side... anyways. Good Luck!!!
 
iowa today by email and snail mail. Oct 3. That makes seven.

WOW ... 7, what are you stats if you dont mind my asking?

answered my own question

Novahopeful,

Sorry I haven't responded sooner. I was at my Case interview yesterday and didn't have access to the internet. My stats are 3.82 GPA, 3.72 SciGPA 20/20/20 DAT.

Case was great by the way. I loved the school. The director of the admissions office offered me a ride to the airport after my interview and he let do a little assisting in the free clinic downstairs so my interview was like 2 and half hours long! He was a way nice guy. I would definitely love to go to Case but I don't think the wallet will like it much. It is so expensive there.
 
To people that are getting Temple... did your status at designated schools first say "complete/under review" or whatever before you got the invitation or no?
