Ok, I haven't had (and won't have) time to completely update my spreadsheet with all the interviews/acceptances from last year. So I present it to you as-is. It's missing invites, interviews, and no acceptance info was ever completed, but it should give you a decent idea of how things went down in last years TMDSAS thread for class of 2020.

I've removed usernames in case anyone is sensitive to that. If you "recognize" your stats and want them removed for whatever reason don't hesitate to let me know.

May the anxiety be ever with you!

The stats for the early interview invites are outrageous. It's cool i dont mind working at mcds forever, at least i get 3 free dollar menu items every 8 hours
 
Off topic question I would really like some opinions on.

I'm in two summer classes right now and I'm not doing too hot. If I got a C and a B, would they bring up my summer classes in an interview? Or would I be able to just not update them until final transcripts are due? I really want to go to Baylor so any specific advice about them is really appreciated, but I also want to know about the rest too.

I know I read somewhere that they make you wrote down all of your classes, so I'm just curious about how it all works.

Ogpa 3.81 sgpa 3.77 dat 21AA if it matters.

Thanks!

I got a C in Physics and a couple of B's throughout undergrad and Dr. Miller didn't bring any of those things up during the A&M interview so I doubt she would mention it. Honestly none of the Texas schools really talked about grades or DAT scores that much. Dr. Miller mentioned my low QR but that was it. During the interview they're really just trying to get a feel of how you are as a person.
 
has anyone had any interview yet so far?
 
Precisely. As time goes on the stats for interviews get lower and lower.
So no one freak out yet.
Would you say date of submission has a factor as well or not really?

Nope not really. One dude last cycle submitted before me and with higher stats and got Post-December interviews at Houston and UTHSCSA. while I got Pre-December interviews at both.

Is it normal if I haven't received any email to notify that my application is received? I submitted mine on 07/01

Has your app finished processing?
Last year I never received an email notification that UTHSCSA got my app, but surely enough they had it.

Hey, just a heads up...this is a dental forum, so some of this info may not apply to your situation. Best of luck!

I guess it's in the process bc TMDSAS posted that they're processing application submitted on 07/01.

???? I thought I was talking about my DENTAL application process just like everyone else was. Not to be offended, but I don't see why my question doesn't belong to this forum.
 
When's everyone's interview dates? For the first round of invites, do y'all know how they decide what days in August everyone goes? Is it alphabetical order of what? Just curious lol

Dude, I was just trying to help. Your status says "Pre-Medical."
