Members do not see this ad.

Im an August Mcat taker, reapplicant, white, CT resident, just got my second interview at Uconn (first last year) December 1st!

The wierd thing is:
The Dean emailed me about a week before the scores even came out! Think this could just be an edge they give to previously interviewed applicants?

Last year I got a 26Q (10v, 7p, 9b)
This year: 28M (10v, 9p, 9b)

Any other August Mcaters and/or reapplicants hear from Uconn this early, or at all?

Congrats on your interview invite.

I love it here at UCONN. The environment is very supportive and there is a strong focus on the humanistic side of medicine.

I have certainly seen lots of kids in dark suits sitting in the admin office lately, but I have no idea if they were Apr. or Aug. MCATers.

Good luck to you in December!

Last year I applied, was waitlisted in the lower third of the list, did not get in. My GPA is 3.6cum/3.4bcpm from U. Rochester

Should I like my chances?

 

[theDr.]

what types of activities do you have, like clinical experience, research, publications, EC activities...stuff like that?

I applied to UCONN and sent my secondary in at the beginning of august and everything else was in by mid august. I just got an email last week saying my file was complete. I am an out-of-stater was wondering if maybe that had something to do with the slow response. I was thinking that maybe they interview CT residents before the rest of us. Does anyone know if I am right?

I am an out of stater and I interviewed at UConn in late September, so I don't think being from out of state should impact how quickly they go through your materials. Everyone I met there was really nice, so good luck with your application!
