there were around 20 people at my interview. how about yours? i think I read in the adea book that they interviewed around 137 people last year
There were only 7 at mine!
I was the only person interviewing that day at my interview. Hm strange.
Really? Wow, I guess it really can vary then..
Howard received my application fee on 9/11/15 and I got the interview invite on 10/6/15.
Howard received my application fee Sep. 11 and I was invited to interview October 23rd.
Lets make an organization called "Pre-dentals against Quantitative Reasoning".
Your stats look good! Your application was submitted a little late so that might hinder you. But I think your chances are good.
Your scores and GPA are good! Your science GPA is much higher than mine and our shadowing hours are comparable. I would agree that since you submitted later, it might be a disadvantage. Stay positive and hopefully you'll hear back soon!
I haven't heard of any rejections from Howard yet.
Honestly I have no idea. Maybe adcoms think that people with crazy high stats will reject their schools for a more prestigious school so they interview applicants with lower stats. But that's just a theory. Stats are just one part of the application they look at other things as well. I also think it's important to apply to schools that match your stats or schools you have a connection with. As far as my application specifically i'm not sure why so many schools invited me for interviews. You would have to ask the admissions committees that are evaluating me.
Do schools even send out rejections before December 1st? I was under the impression that decisions (both rejections and acceptances) don't come out until at least December 1st.
Some schools send rejections before December 1st, and some let you think you have a chance then send a rejection halfway into the next application cycle. It just depends on the school.
Some schools send out rejections before dec 1st. Howard says on their website that they don't send out rejection letters until April/May.
I got two rejections in the mail from NOVA and Midwestern, IL
Did you apply to Howard?
19 PAT isn't really considered an "overqualified" DAT score
Haha it's all good. Nevertheless, The moral of the story is... You never know what Adcoms are looking for. Even if an applicant's stats are lower than others it doesn't mean they won't get an interview/acceptance. So whether you have a 17AA or a 28 AA Keep the faith!
Haha me too! Almost there... Just a little longer.
I didn't sleep the whole night!! Lol every time my phone got an email alert I had to check it.
I slept maybe 3 hours
Our only job today is to glue our eyes to our email inbox.I'm being so counter-productive right now. I feel like I can't do anything I need to do today until I see an email lol
I know me too!! I keep checking my phone at work! I hate this feeling!!!!
