Has anyone heard from Tufts yet?

It's been pretty quiet since that first day Tufts handed out interviews. There is only 15 people listed on predents so they seem to be taking a leisurely pace.

Has it been confirmed that a Maryland supplemental app = interview?

 

[DanceMnster]

Has it been confirmed that a Maryland supplemental app = interview?

Yes, everyone I know who has received a supplemental (including myself) received an interview invite usually a day after submitting it

Yeah, I feel pretty lucky! Seems kinda crazy to have an interview 8 days after getting the invitation!

(but it looks like all the guys that I'm interviewing against that day seem super top notch and overqualified, so it's probably not the best day to be a Roseman candidate) 🙂

 

[A6project]

yeeee!
see you at the interview buddy.
practice hard, lets rock that interview ohhhyeaah

[Bis-GMA111]

[jeffity]

Just barely got an interview invite from Midwestern-AZ this morning! Haven't scheduled it yet though. I didn't turn in my secondary until Tuesday morning (2 days ago) so they must be pretty quick.

Are you applying to both medical and dental school right now?

Congrats! I want a Roseman interview. 🙂 I'm an Oregon resident too...do you have a lot of volunteer hours or ec's?

Thanks! I thought youro handle was "TCW" for a sec from scrubs ha!

Did you apply to OHSU? Did you get any snail mail from OHSU yet?

I don't really have too much volunteer hours. I have 25-30ish hours for some outreach events. Most of my EC's are tied into tennis, teaching tennis, TA'ing for micro labs, doing research from an internship, and working/doing research in a lab.

right there with you. Pretty similar stats I'd say. I applied to 28 schools and have 5 rejections so far: UCSF, ASDOH, LLU, UNLV, Midwestern-IL.
I'm pretty bummed but I guess there is nothing we can do at this point. I'm taking classes to raise my GPA but hoping I don't have to reapply. I don't want to wait another year before my dream of dental school comes alive! Good luck to you!

USC Invite today, that makes #4 🙂

Seriously surprised I'm getting 4 interviews this time around. I have the same GPA and same DAT as when I applied in 2009, when I only got one interview. I can tell you guys that applying early and spending a little extra time on the applications really makes a big difference. Good luck to everyone!
