wow, good for you! if you don't mind me asking, what are ur stats? and also what date was ur application complete and up for review?
 
Interview offer from The Ohio State University came today via postal mail, for either January 12th or 13th!
 
This is kind of late, but I had an interview at Mercer during their first rounds in September, and I was also offered an interview at Campbell in October. Hopefully I'll be hearing from ETSU soon, though!😳

The crazy thing was that I never received word that my application was complete. I submitted the electronic portion of the application on Nov. 22nd and mailed my CV the next day. The interview invitation had a date of Dec, 1st. When I saw the letter I just thought that it was going to be a letter stating that my application was complete and up for review, I was pretty surprised. Especially since Thanksgiving was in between the time when I submitted my application and when I received the letter. I wonder if they just give interviews to everyone that applies. I hope not. But I am very excited to interview there. I think I will fit in at the school.
 
Got an invite to interview at Creighton today! 😀 I get to pick between Jan. 26th, Feb. 9th, or the regional interview (in Atlanta) on March something. I'll probably go the 26th. Yay! I had received a letter at the beginning of November stating that I was in the alternate pool, so I'm super-excited now!

Congrats on getting off of the alternate list! I know a ton of people that applied last year that never got an interview after recieving the alternate letter so I can understand why you're super-excited! 👍
 
Wayne State University - Jan 10th
 
Campbell University - Dec 8th
 
Just got an interview request from UGA for January 17th. Anyone else heard back from them yet?
 
Interview offer from the UNC School of Pharmacy for Friday, December 15, but declined because of finals. Alternative interview date is not yet set, but will be sometime in January.

because anfhockey10 has already been accepted by LECOM Erie and is waiting on an acceptance at Pacific University (Oregon). 🙂 Congrats on your MCPG interview anfhockey10!
 
got an interview at south university for jan 19th - maybe declining since they told me i would have to take a couple of extra classes that i wasn't planning on taking ... we'll see
 
I also received an interview invite for Jan 19th. I'm so happy; this is my first interview this year! YAY!! Does anyone know anything about the interview process there?
 
University of Houston (Texas) - January 27th
 
university of wisconsin jan 12th!!!! My very first pharm school interview 🙂
 
I have an interview at UW-Madison too!! But I picked the first day on Jan 11.
 
Mercer COPHS on January 12th, and it's weird that someone already received an interview request from UGA considering UGA doesn't start evaluating applications until February 1. This person must fall under the legacy program or selected early-decision.

congrats on the midwestern interview = )

I applied there as well but they STILL haven't received my PCAT score; you think that's a reason I have not heard from them at all? (neither interview or rejection)- what are my chances? 83% pcat 3.1 GPA

Yes--I feel very fortunate--Nova is such an amazing school. I want to go to a more clinically oreinted pharmacy school, and Nova is certainly more clinically oriented. I really hope I get into Nova.

Yes, my PCAT scores are low--but I always freeze up on standardized tests--my SAT and ACT scores are both below average--but I proved myself in the classroom by getting good grades..

I've heard that many schools are starting to phase out standardized tests--I guess that's a good thing--for outliers like myself--and bad for those that score well! 😉

There is more to my application than my PCAT scores--I have a degree--worked in a doctor's office for over 9 years, etc.

But in reality--I know my chances aren't that good--but there has to be something that stuck out that made Nova want to interview me--I feel blessed--I just hope I get in! 👍

good luck!!👍
 
Thank you so much--and good luck to you as well! 😀 👍 :luck:
 
schools starting to phase out standardized testing? i hate to say this, but the pcats are still relatively new and in truth, not that difficult (albeit i did get a 72). i think if anything pcats are starting to become a bit more popular. would anyone believe that the med schools will phase out the mcats or that college will phase out the SATs? i highly doubt that, so lets not hope for schools phasing out pcats. regardless of how we test on the pcats, im glad that its not the only focus of the application.

ur chances are fairly good cuz i had a gpa of 3.15 and a 72 pcats and i got interviewed. tho afterwards i got waitlisted there. im still hoping cuz right now they are taking the best of the crop and then they might look at the average joes later in the spring

I never said that schools were getting rid of the PCAT or MCAT--I guess I should have been more specific--

I have read that some colleges ARE IN FACT getting rid of the SAT requirement--because many feel that it does not truly indicate whether or not someone will do well (have a high GPA) in college.

BUT--this is OFF TOPIC--so let's stay on topic--

Congrats to EVERYONE who got an interview--whether you have a high/low GPA, high/low PCAT, etc. 😀
