9/26 - AMCAS app submitted (Yikes! a little late I know.)
10/5 - UTMB interview
10/8 - UTSA interview
10/15 - AMCAS verified and sent. I hope I get lucky with VUMS
11/15 - Pre-match offer from TTUHSC-School of Medicine
12/8 - Pre-match offer from UTHSC-SA Turned down for TTU
Getting the app in early is good for pre-match in TMDSAS and interviews in general. Just waiting on November 15th now. If not, Feb 1st is the day. Vanderbilt was a stretch but my research professor suggested I apply because he had a contact in the medical school. I feel a little confused because I feel as though my stats were good enough to warrant interviews from UTSW and A&M but I received neither.
I am so happy that I got a pre-match offer. I live in Lubbock and I know what a great school TTU is so I am very happy. Plus, a scholarship is always good news.
