trojjanhorse Posted October 16, 2012 Author Report Share Posted October 16, 2012 Does anyone know if we get an email even if we don't get invited for an interview? looking at last year's thread, invites and rejections were sent out at the same time.

trojjanhorse Posted October 18, 2012 Author Report Share Posted October 18, 2012 Sorry for the double post guys, but tomorrow is the day when Dal sent out invites 2 years ago and the 21st (sunday) for last year. So tomorrow is a possibility. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So tomorrow is a possibility. I'm hopeful but aren't interviews later this year than last? could mean not til sometime next week very excited to see the invite though...especially with my previous credit hour concerns. Seems like this has been sorted out though... apparently Full course load of 5 has an equivalent in credit hours. By the end of this week I should have my package from memporial..need to book that flight ASAP. 3 weeks from Friday. I hope you get an invite to Dal Trojjanhorse, you seem like a good guy and considering your circumstances with your better half. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can't help but be anxious about Dal. We'll see what happens. I won't be too bummed out if i get a regret from Dal. Thanks for the kind words. All the best to you as well.

Gametime24 Posted October 18, 2012 Report Share Posted October 18, 2012 Just thought I'd pop in and say I'm hoping the best for you guys as well (trojjanhorse, silvantes, and some others from this forum), here's hoping for tomorrow! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks Gametime! hoping for all you guys as well! I don't you guys well but you seem like genuine people and that is definitely the type of people I would like to be in a school with. hopefully Dal will see that.

If they do give me a full file review, then I may have a shot as my ECs are a lot stronger than my grades and MCAT Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gametime24 Posted October 18, 2012 Report Share Posted October 18, 2012 lol thanks, but I don't have my hopes too high as I'm OOP with a 3.80Dal and 11/11/11/Q. If they do give me a full file review, then I may have a shot as my ECs are a lot stronger than my grades and MCAT A 33Q is a pretty good MCAT, and it's balanced, which is nice. OOP is pretty competitive, but I think they put a fair bit of weight on the OOPs ability to demonstrate a connection to the maritimes. And ECs count for a big part of the score at Dal, so having strong ECs will def help. 3.8 might be a little low for OOP, 33Q should be in the competitive range, and good ECs might be enough to offset the gpa (provided they take a liking to your commitment to the maritimes). Looks like they didn't send them out today though (at least hopefully haha) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trojjanhorse I'm hopeful you will get an interview and then you should stand a very good chance..I am sure there are unsocial geniuses out there who have the perfect marks but cannot function properly in social settings. You seem to be socially able..lol:D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am really fond of their 1st year program by having both clinical and class settings. Also their emphasis on growing larger in their research is very appealing.

Happiness Posted October 19, 2012 Report Share Posted October 19, 2012 Alright, so maybe this is overly neurotic, but I went through last year's Countdown to Interview Invites and they were sent out at approximately 1:30 pm on Friday the 21st. So perhaps there is hope that they will come out this afternoon - here's to hoping! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

seeking1 Posted October 20, 2012 Report Share Posted October 20, 2012 I've kind of been avoiding reading this thread, but now that I am reading I'm a little psyched for their email, whenever that is. No matter what happens, good luck to everyone who has applied, you are high quality candidates and I wish you all the best. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trojjanhorse Posted October 20, 2012 Author Report Share Posted October 20, 2012 Last year invites were sent out on Friday 21st, the year prior was Monday the 18th. My money is on Monday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
