Just wondering when you all finally sent out your apps... and when you started getting interviews. Just trying to see if there's a link b/t date of app submission and number/timing of interviews.

Thanks!

Hope this helps.

Submitted 9/6, received by first invite 9/8. I have 13 interviews but still waiting to hear from about 15 or so more programs. I am beginnig to think I over applied. Oh, well better safe than scramble, right.

Applying in psych. Submitted 9/6. Got my first invite the next day. I got a few more over the next couple weeks, then things slowed down, then I got 3 this past week. Which makes 8 so far, still waiting on 4.

Good luck everybody 🙂

I certified my ERAS application on Sept. 1. Most of the application (i.e. letters, USMLE transcript, photo, medical school transcript) was complete by Sept. 16 except for my Dean's Letter. Recommendation letters trickled in until Oct. 5. I have about 5 interviews for categorical IM programs (earliest one replied by email ~ Sept. 23; UT Southwestern or Emory I think). Dean's Letter comes out on Nov. 1. I just heard from Washington University and Baylor in Houston. Good luck with your interviews.
