I'm starting the supplemental app. considering my question is regarding the "Student Basic Information" section, it may be a stupid one, haha, but does anyone know what the Student ID Number is?
Thanks
Does anyone know if TTech does rolling admissions?! If not, what is the final application date? Thanks!
When should I submit my application from PharmCAS if I don't want to be in the last group for interviews? I know the deadline is approaching fast but it seems kind of hard unless I submit my app within this week which I won't be able to do. If I submit before Thanksgiving will I still be in the last group of interviews? Also should I submit both PharmCAS and the supplemental app at the same time or is it better to send in PharmCAS before the supplemental app?
They started doing interviews in September and I think it ends in February.
I don't think they do. If they did, they must've been doing that at Amarillo only, because I haven't seen any prospective students here.
Last cycle they start January 14th (I was in the first group) and ended in April. I don't believe they started in September...

I saw the early decision group in Amarillo during P1 Hell week.
I'm sorry about that. I read on PharmCAS that it was, but later I learned that PharmCAS doesn't have the right interview dates for any of the schools I applied for.
I got an email from Tech saying that they are review my app
Oh really? I'm guessing it's only in Amarillo? I haven't seen or heard anything about interviews.. That's really early!
I heard that all 13 students got accepted.
oh man, you sent a whole lot of shock and nervousness throughout my body
I'm super nervous now. I also scored a low pcat score...
If you don't mind me asking MrLogic, what are your other stats like GPA?
Well as of right now my GPA is a 3.2....I'm repeating my general biology courses which I got C's in. But I also had a rough time during my freshman year so those grades detract from my competitive standing when JUST considering GPA(of course I have repeated those courses). I would've been fine had I done better on the PCAT. My composite was 43%. My advisor told me I would need a competitive PCAT score which is 75% or higher to receive an interview. Other than that:
Two straight years of volunteer service
one summer as a pharmacy volunteer
Bachelor's degree (May 2012).
ALL of my recommendation letters are good (I know for a fact lol)
Its seems your GPA and PCAT are what get you in the door.
It seems like you have competitive stats in my opinion, other than the PCAT score. I feel like I'm in the same situation as you. My PCAT is the biggest issue with my application. Although I do know someone that got in with a PCAT score in the 50s and only two years of undergraduate. I'm not sure what his GPA was though. So maybe there is hope for the both of us? I still haven't gotten any status update on my application as of yet.
Hopefully! Your advisor didn't email you! I submitted my application in September so it got there pretty early. Texas Tech requires a PCAT composite of at least 50% but to be competitive you need 75% or higher. I hope Dr. Collins materials help me for the January PCAT. Are you taking the PCAT again?
I am planning on retaking the January PCAT. I'm just not sure how much I can raise my score though. School work is seriously taking up all of my time to study for the PCAT. I got a 47 composite last time. I'm honestly only hoping to get my scores up into the high 60s to low 70s. I didn't submit my application until October. All I know is that my application is in the process of being reviewed.
I only have like 100 hours of volunteer experience....you people are seriously scaring me
FYI, they are sending out interview invites at the end of this month!
Quick update here. This batch of interview invites more than likely pushed back to next week although there is a small chance they will go out by end of business Friday Dec 2 (that's today!). This is from the counselor I spoke with yesterday.
