You are correct, but I am basing my statement off of what I have seen here on SDN, which shouldn't be too far from the truth.
My interview was way back in September. I feel that if they were really interested in offering me a spot, they would have done so on Dec. 1st. After that date, it gets way more competitive, as new applications come in until Feb. 1, which ia a pretty late deadline, compared to other CA dental schools.
I just feel that my application has been lost in the pile, as they interviewed more and more applicants. However, there is still some chances of getting accepted. .
