I submitted my application in late Oct/Nov-is it too late to get an interview?

Stats:

MCAT 26Q

GPA:3.6

Major: Chem/Biochem minor: bio

Experience shadowing DO, volunteering at hospital and nursing home, clinical research and undergrad chem research, mental health clinic volunteer, etc.
 
i am in the same situation w/ similar stats.

i hope we both have some kind of shot.

from what i understand, if you submitted your app to aacomas in Nov, it would take 6-8weeks so they should'ved reviewed our app end of Jan or... now. I think if we dont hear back from them by Feb 28th, our chances are slim to none.
 
They interview until early may...slim to none is harsh unless you have a below thier average mcat / grades.
 
Thanks guys! I feel a little better-this is such a nerve-wrecking process!!!!

Where else have you applied?
 
Wow, I'm already into UNECOM, but I wonder if I'll ever hear anything from my mid-July submission. Not that it matters, just curious. of course, it would be nice to get even rejections from the other 12 MD schools I applied to. I think if you give someone $75, they should have to reject you within 6 months.

I just emailed the admissions office and they let me know that they started reviewing OOS applicants the third week of January and will be sending invitations in the mail. *Crosses fingers*
