mab1989 Posted February 5, 2015 Report Share Posted February 5, 2015 TIME STAMP: 11:21Interview Date: TBDResult: InvitewGPA: 3.69MCAT: Poor overall.ECs: Message me if interested. Year: BScN (2012)Geography : IPThis is my first time applying. I truly believe that my ECs are the reason that I got an interview. My GPA is pretty average, and I bombed the MCAT. I think I will have to kick butt in the MMI in order for me to get into med school considering those who have been invited thus far have killer academic scores. I am truly excited and honored to be invited - I was honestly ready for a rejection email. Good luck to everyone on their interviews. sael, Tomas and henslice 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
