Hi, you have a great DAT score. Just have some patience. Did you submit your supplementals and fees?

I am in the same situation. I keep telling myself to be patient, but easier said than done.

interview invites come through email or phone?

It depends on the school. I think most email interview invites to students, while others like WesternU in California call students

Wow that's a lot of schools sweetbitna. I'm sure you'll get into at least one. You have a really good DAT score.

Don't want to have to go through this again.

Having a job helps! I've been kept preoccupied with my job. It helps if you guys either have a job or are going back to school soon. Patience my dear pre-dents. This uncertainty shall end in due time.

I only got one interview before beginning/mid august. Some schools just take a while. How early you submit EVERYTHING matters too. They just don't get to review you as early.

Yea, I hope so.
I am starting school soon. Also, I will be working as a dental assistant. I really hope I would be able to just take everything easy. Sigh.

You all realize it's only August 12 right?!? Even the earliest schools usually don't start interviews until Mid-September. I had all pre december interviews, and the earliest I found out on any was Oct. 10. Many schools only notify you of an invite a couple weeks before it.

Seriously, relax and take a breath. There is NOTHING you can do now. If you stress out the whole time, this next 6-10 months will be miserable for you...

But, do as you like, just some advice.
