I recieved invitation for interview to UoP also. This will be my second try there🙂)
 
I received the letter by regular mail. The interview and tests will be on November 16th, 17th, 18th and 19th. About how many they called or how many they will choose I have no idea, and this is the first time I applied.
My scores are:Toefl 270, NBDE I 86, NBDE II 80

Good Luck

I reactivated my application from the last year in UoP.
And my scores are NDBE I 87, TOEFL 277
 
Hi,
Even myself got invitation too. Last year they sent me the letter of rejection said that I was not in the top 80 candidates to be called for the interview. When I reactivated my file in June they sent me a letter said that they advice me to retake the tests to get a better chance of admission. I didn't do anything because I got admission at NYU. I guess this year the admission process may not as tough as last year. The applicant pool seem doesn't have super-scores as last year!
Wish everyone the best.

I got a phone call today too regarding the interview, they wanted to know if I was still interested, I had no clue since I didn't get anything in the mail yet 😕 , but I will be there 👍 . Can any previous applicants share with us any "details" about the exam? what kind of preparation, and if it's something that you can practice for or not.

Thanks 😎
