hi!

I got my pcat scores on 11/30...pharmcas hasn't been updated yet..

so

1- have the schools received my score?
2- what now? do i wait for an interview... it's an ambiguous feeling...after having waited so long for scores... do you get notified via mail, or email...and how far in advance?

3- how many schools do people usually apply to? i've applied to 3.(wondering if i should add more..?)

i'm just stressing out right now.. hate waiting....thanks for your help!

Waiting is the hardest part. I don't see anything wrong with sending an email or phone call to someone in admissions to make sure that your application is complete and under consideration, aka, am I going to get an interview?

I applied to five schools, so I think 3 is not unreasonable. You may want to look in the interview feedback forum and see when people were posting feedback. If people were posting about interviews during the fall semester, you may not get an interview at that school if you applied. However, a lot of schools don't send out interviews until the application deadline passes, and that is usually in January or February.

I'm so mad!!!

Here i am waiting wondering if my schools' received my scores... when am i gonna get an invite...etc...

only to find out that one of them doesn't want the scores sent directly to them, and wants it sent thru pharmcas!!!!!!! hartcourt shouldn't have the option to send it to the school then!! so now i have to spend another $20 to send to pharmcas..and god knows how long that will take

this school had a dec. 1st deadline, and this better not ruin my chances there!!!!

grrrrrrrrrr!!

plus, i assumed the scores get sent directly to pharmcas...why wouldn't they?

I'm sick of these schools that are like "most our applications are thrown out b/c they're incomplete".... it's like they're purposefully making things ambiguous and tedious so that they have less work to do.
