Hey guys,

So I woke up from my sleep just now because I had a dream about not getting any interview invites (a common nightmare among all of us I'm sure). I hope it doesn't sound pathetic that my first thought was to post my concern on SDN, haha. 🙄

Anyway, I applied last cycle... got 2 interviews from LECOM-B and E. Didn't end up going because I didn't have a DO letter, so I canceled both interviews. The timeline looks like it's going to be the same this cycle as last... last cycle my AACOMAS was sent out to schools on 8/19... according to the verification thread, mine should be verified this week and sent out next Tuesday, so it'll be around 8/19 again.

I'm hoping to get another interview shot at the LECOMS (especially now that I have a DO letter), but if I don't end up getting an invite... does this mean they look down upon reapps? (my application has improved a little as well).

Anyway, I shall now go back to sleep... or watch a movie or something. lol. Thanks in advance for any help you can give.

No. More importantly, though, you will invariably be asked 'how did you improve since last cycle?' so you better start coming up with a good answer now.

On LECOMs website, it says you send in a DO letter only if you get accepted? Is that still true? I have an interview at LECOM-E but don't have my DO letter yet (still shadowing).

Thanks
