Idk if I am considered a "super high stat applicant" or not, but I have a 4.0 (from a no-name state school) and a 517 MCAT. So my MCAT is indeed below their median. I also don't have the greatest MCAT distribution (129/127/129/132). I hope this helps!

A 517 MCAT is their matriculated average lol, just so you know

Congratulations! Do you mind sharing what you consider “bad” so for those of us who are marked as psychopaths by Altus know if we have any hope.

It seems like Hofstra has sent out their IIs to the super high stats applicants so far. Idk maybe im bugging

I ~feel~ like my stats are average aside from MCAT so I wouldn’t count yourself out if that’s not you!! You’re not being irrational though.Perhaps no consolation from me, but give yourself grace for things you can’t control. There are enough factors in this process that could drive any sane person to the edge. It’s still early august and they give out almost 600 invites every year!

@thr1932359 when I registered my interview this morning (pretty much immediately after receiving the invitation), I got October 19th. Both September dates were already gone at that time, so I think they're just getting filled up quickly.

Damn! I should have scheduled my invite the second I got the email then. Thanks for letting me know

How do you find out your Casper score? I can't find it on Altus and it's been a month since I took the test.
 
They email you when the results are out. Check spam.
I still don't see anything, nothing in my spam. Is it common for casper scores to not get revealed to you, even after a month? My casper did get sent to my schools for them to see it, I just don't know what the score is.

It was slightly more than a month for me so hopefully in the next week or so! The website will also update and allow you to see the score so you can try checking every few days or so

Also, there aren't any medical schools that require Snapshot do they? I haven't come across one school that requires snapshot and duet.
 
Which few AMCAS schools? Almost every school I saw on Altus didn't require snapshot.
There’s no good way to search for this but from what I see on our school threads this year, it’s just
E Tennessee (Quillen)
Colorado
Illinois
