I thought I'd start this thread so maybe SDNers who are at Pitt for their interviews the same day can meet up and say hi to each other
I'll start:

beaverfetus said:crap, sounds late then... guess it was the bcpm if they auto invite on numbers.

beaverfetus said:thanks for the vote of confidence homer. I figure with a 3.64 and a 38 I should be able to swing an auto cut, but not if 3.7 is the cut. Thanks for the response.

yes there is a calender with all the dates available and you pick your day from itdimebag darrell said:To those who received "automatic" interview invites from Pitt: were you allowed to choose the date (at least from a few options)?
PittMedicine said:My friend who goes to UPitt undergrad got an interview invite and he got 7 on PS, 10 on BS, and 13 on VR and has almost a 4.00 QPA. When he told me he got an interview, I asked him if it was auto. He said he asked and that they said people review the files.
So for all of you who have not received interviews yet, they are still debating whether or not to offer one.
I wish I applied to Pitt now!!!!!!!!

Zyzzyva100 said:Like I posted in the other thread, I had a 3.53 and a 36 and got an invite right away. I will also have an M.S. by then too, so maybe thats a factor.

And as for hours they keep? I submitted ~9 pm on a Saturday, and had an invite by 1:30 pm Sunday. So definitely not anything normal.
beaverfetus said:sigh, I'm coming up on 24 hours so I'm pretty sure my chances are nill for auto invite, guess I'll have to wait for screening
Severus said:What is up with THAT?
beaverfetus said:EPIPHANY! I have one requirement that I'm taking now (1 hour of bio lab) while the ad com person I talked to on the phone said not to worry about it, that is EXACTLY the kind of thing that a computer review would disqualify you for an auto invite. They wrote the program to not send invites to applicants with a requirement missing.
Aurora013 said:That's odd, being as I'm not taking my last semester of bio lab til the fall...

AmyO said:Dude.....I know the application process is quite stressful, but you need to chill or you're going to have a mental breakdown before you can even attend an interview. It's a long process. It's not the norm (at least for the majority of medical schools) to offer interviews within 24 hours of receiving your application. Plus you're getting really annoying. I can't imagine what you're going to be like if you're put on a gasp....waitlist. I'm not trying to be mean, but it's JULY!
