On average, did you get your acceptances much later in the cycle even if you had a relatively early interview?

I just interviewed at Ohio State, and their website says decisions mostly get made in February except for "a select few," who will get them earlier. I do not think I'm good enough (or bad enough??) to be a "select few," but out of curiosity, were most acceptances very late for you, or did they come out seemingly on a rolling basis?

I suggest checking out past MD/PhD acceptance threads to get a better idea of acceptance timing.

...2019-2020, 2018-2019, 2017-2018, and so forth.

I interviewed at ~10 programs from September through January, and my first acceptance came in early February. But, I think that it is a bit program dependent.

Acceptances begin after Oct. 15. The overwhelming majority of acceptances are given between mid-February and late-April, almost in a Gaussian distribution, but with a right shoulder for late April to mid-May.
