Hello Everyone, I am not sure where exactly to post this so I started a new thread. Basically I applied to around 10 DO schools around early July and was complete with most secondaries by late July/Early August. My stats are a 3.5 Gpa and 504 mcat, with pretty good extracurriculars. 250+ research and volunteering. I have only heard back from one school and am wondering if this is normal. I have seen people hearing back and receiving II's in as little as two weeks from multiple schools I applied to. I feel as though my stats aren't the best, but I thought they would be good enough to get me some attention. Am I totally just freaking out over nothing and the waiting, or is there some substance to this? When should I expect to get II's from most schools or when would you expect that I am probably just not going to get one from particular schools. I know its a waiting game, but I just want to know if I have a chance and if the II's should be coming or if I need to start looking at a backup plan.

Honestly, at my school you'd probably get an interview by March.

The cycle has only just begun, and patience is a virtue
