I have same AA and TS like you, had an interview post dec and waiting to hear back. So I guess you can at least get an interview.

sorry I was unclear in my original post -- I interviewed already, just not sure if my stats are competitive enough to get accepted. My interview didn't go great (not bad either) so im nervous.
My interviewer was Dr.Rubin and he didn't ask me much

I had a different interviewer so I can't compare and I wasn't present in your interview so I can't tell how you did either... What I can tell you is that the interview is only part of the story. After the interview are over for each session the committee gets together and discuss all applicants from that session and come up with a decision. So if on the overall you didn't create a bad impression on the interviewer he or she would probably share their good or indifferent impression with the committee...
I hope it helps in some way to relieve your pressure, but that's mostly my understanding of their process, I don't have any true verified info other than what I wrote...

I still think you have a good chance for being accepted. Your stats are fine and Touro is new. They're not going to be as picky as other more established schools.

Their admissions cycle will last through the spring because they will probably have a lower acceptance yield than other schools. Don't worry about not hearing back right away.

For the entering class, avg GPA was around a 3.4 and DAT 20, which is on par with many schools. During my interview they said that they expected the avg GPA and DAT for the next incoming class to be higher.

Well my interview is in Jan and I have slightly better stats. I'm scared of my chances too tbh. Hopefully Touro wants us though.

What are your stats luckbloodandsweat? I also have a friend with similar GPA but 21AA and 22TS who hasn't hear back yet either. Good luck though !

Just be yourself during the interview! I know people say that all the time but the more you think of your interview as a conversation the easier it tends to go (for me at least!) Mine was incredibly laid back and not formal at all. It was very conversational. Be prepared to discuss some of your extra curriculars and some of the things you do for fun!

Lol i had dr. Rubin too

You have to create convo with him, he's the type to not talk much. Nonetheless, i was accepted so i think you're fine

I got rejected from Touro without an interview with a 3.61 sGPA, 3.57 overall, 3.7 BCP, 22AA, 21TS, and I won the award for being the graduating student with the highest average in my major. But I'm Canadian. NY schools aren't showing me any love, my only other rejection was from NYU as well
