I AM SHOOK!! I am turning 27 this year, this has been such a long haul for me. I did a BSc then an accelerated BScN. I'm working as an ER nurse now. In my first year I received an interview at Mac, R post interview. Went 2 cycles with no interviews at all. I have taken the MCAT 5 TIMES TOTAL all to improve my CARS. This will be my final year applying as I cannot keep putting off life decisions. I am so excited to have this opportunity!!

If your courses meet their requirements I would definitely contact them about it.

Thanks! I just double-checked and emailed them. It's wierd because one of my verifier was contacted last year so I was sure I met the cut-off.

I have the same issue.

I'm wondering if it's still an R but they put the wrong reason in the email? Giving the speed they sending out invites this year maybe they have some tech issues as well?
