Good luck to all of you that will go for the IV!:luck:

I received UCSF invitation for interview at 4:32 PM Pacific time. Interviews are from Oct 16 through 19. Good luck to all !
 
this is the craziest day for me got ivs from all the three cal univs, like old saying if it rains it pours, good luck guys
 
I called Mary Pham and asked her, she said my name was not in the IV list..

Those who have got calls- Can you please share with us what are the strong points in your applications?

We could move in that direction for other schools...
 
i also did not hear from there.

i guess for those who did not hear from them today for having IV are anyways rejected.

anyone else pl input ur opinion.

you are right it means we r rejected...btw whats your nbde score?
 
Does anyone have an idea if they allow you to practice before the actual bench test? And do they provide with all instruments, like UOP?
 
Heartiest congratulations to all those invited! If anyone has any doubts or needs help with something regarding the interview, please feel free to get in touch.

For those who had bad luck today, dont lose heart, some other school is going to be the fortunate one to have you.
 
Congratulations to everyone who got a call!

Some of you will be travelling to SFO just for the interviews and I recommend you all plan your trip well in advance, as hotel rooms dry up soon.

For UCSF, hotel Carl or hotel Stanyan are close by options.
if you are on a budget and dont mind euro-travellers, there are a few hostels in downtown that u can check out.

SFO is a relatively safe city with good public transport from the airport and around town.

congratulations again!!

Good Luck to every one who got their invitations from UCSF.. You all are gonna have best time during your practicals and interview.
Don't worry about anything else now and just concentrate on your practical skills. Hopefully everyone will get a step by step written instructions on the tooth preparation by postal mail along with your invitation within few days..
Trust in your self and hit hard..:xf:
Good luck once again..👍
 
I too received IV call via mail yesterday 4:30 PM Pacific time from UCSF. Good Luck to everyone for the interview !🙂
Does anyone have an idea what do they generally ask for the practical exam?
