Waiting really sucks but I am seeing people who submitted later than i did started getting an interview from Columbia, UPenn, Louisville, UMDNJ, Buffalo and so forth.

I have a fair GPA (Overall 3.56, Sci 3.66) and fair DAT (23/22/23 taken @ 4/9/10) from UC Berkeley and all my apps (including letters of recommendations) were turned in June 3rd and the mailing date was 7/2. I also have 500+ shadowing and 500+ volunteer hours (dental related)

Also I am a California Resident (not an international student)

Just curious why I haven't heard back from them yet. I tried to call each school and they were all very restrict about NOT giving any information about the status of my app.

I feel like I should be getting at least one invite from one of those schools by now. I am trying to rearrange my fall semester schedule based on the interview schedules, but it's taking too long 🙁

Any idea?
 
I'm not sure if not being a citizen has anything to do with it. Just a guess though. (I think you mentioned you weren't a citizen before).

I'm assuming its the AADSAS problem you had. I have stats lower than you, sent out later also, and I have a few interviews. I really think its the AADSAS issue. Make sure you fix it. Your stats are superb. Fix it!
