I'm a Texas Resident with 3.7 gpa and 34 mcat from top 20 undergrad. Pretty standard ECs (research, volunteering, tutoring, shadowing, etc). Havent heard back from any schools in terms of interviews and everything was submitted early (TMDAS 6/22 and AMCAS 6/2). So basically wondering since some of these schools already sent out interview invites and i haven't received is it safe to assume I'm out of the running?

Thanks

No.

I think most of the interview invites that were sent at this point are EDP only.

Too early to start freaking out. Good luck!

You'll be fine. Take a deep breath.

This is $%^*ing July --

If you don't have several interview invitations by the end of August, you can start worrying. But much too soon now. Check the school specific threads for timelines.

Don't start worrying until end of February. Interviews go until March, and some all the way until April.

OP I hope you applied to low-tier Caribbean because that seems to be your only chance now

Patience is a virtue, the need for instant gratification is not.

I'm a Texas Resident with 3.7 gpa and 34 mcat from Wash U undergrad. Pretty standard ECs (research, volunteering, tutoring, shadowing, etc).

He's a Texan. Things will start to happen in August and in-state interviews should roll in through October. With luck, there'll be a pre-match offer November 15th.

Mostly reaches but my reasoning will it would have to be a compelling reason to forgoe Texas school.

 

[Spector1]

They will be!

For a Texan with good numbers (as OP has) the odds of being admitted in state are fairly good. In-State tuition and cost of attendance are SO LOW in Texas that the only reason for a Texan with good numbers to apply OOS if if they have some compelling reason to want to go OOS for school -- like attending Stanford, Wash U, etc. For a mid-tier, why would OP choose expensive private mid-tier when he's been accepted to cheap public TX school?
