Yep I got scheduled in the afternoon as well despite indicating a conflict, but cant complain since I did say my other interview was in the morning. I think it'll be good to get them done on the same day while in the interview mindset but that may just be me

Program: MD Result: Invite (?!) Timestamp: 2:09 pm EST OMSAS GPA: 3.99 CARS: 126 IP/OOP: IP Casper: Was cut off on two questions and didn't feel as natural as last year (when I had the same stats and no invites). Practiced like crazy for it though in the summer since I was writing in August for Dal I think this goes to show how subjective the whole process can be and all we can really do is put in as much effort as we can and hope for the best. Good luck to everyone for the rest of the cycle

Thank you!! My last name starts with W, but I feel like the MD/PhD invites may follow a different trend!

Just going to place this here for reference but this is from this morning!

OOP - Invite (1:09 EST) GPA: 4.0 MCAT: 514 Maritimes Essay: Wrote about how I went to Dal for camp in high school and it really impacted my life, but my experience was not unique to NS or the Maritimes. I talked more about I felt really welcomed by the profs and staff at Dal and how they helped me grow as a person. I thought the Casper went average, I got cut off a couple times and felt that I did about the same as last year, a cycle from which I had no interviews Feeling really grateful and wishing the best for everyone this cycle!
