I Need some advice.

I graduated with my Bachelors from Loyola U Chicago 2 1/2 years ago with an Economics degree. I had 3.1 cumulative gpa. During that time I also did a little volunteering in a local hospital around 75 hours. I recently decided to try to apply to med school so I finished up my premed classes a jr college. I took all four chem classes, 2 bio's, 2physics and I received A's in all of them. I've also been working full time since I graduated. I'm 24 now 25 in august...

Two questions?
1. What do you think my chances are?
2. What MCAT score do I need
3. I'll be 25 by the time I start med school. What is the average age of st. george med students.

I have...and my counselor's out of town.

So during the interview - You'll hear back from us in four six weeks.
After 4 weeks I checked my status - Give us 6-8 weeks; the adcom is in Grenada helping the Jan class.
After 8 weeks - Give us 8-10 weeks; this is normal.

I guess I got all my good luck with the interview; I think it was a month between when I finish my application and I finally emailed them a photo of myself. I got an interview about 12 hours after I sent the photo and finalized my appllication.
I also have sent them updates, and additional LORs w/in the last month...so that could have slowed things down...
Anyway hopefully I'll find out by Tuesday...

I wouldn't worry so much if I were you. I interviewed in October and only found out this week that I was accepted. Give them time, I'm sure you have nothing to worry about. Good luck, I know waiting sucks!

Congrats to all with acceptances! For those who are waiting, hang in there. We're still early in the process. I am sure that they will give out happy phone calls soon to you all.
