does anyone know if we have to wait for an email from Dartmouth before we can submit the secondary?
For U. of Cincinnati's prompt regarding "major activities" in your gap year, is it okay to write a short blurb (3 sentences) about your job and add in another 2-3 sentences to talk about one thing that you do for fun (a hobby)? Or is it best to answer and move on?
I agree. I wouldn't say my answers were single paragraphs though, but definitely without formal intro's or conclusions.
just wanted to make sure...Yale's secondary doesn't ask for a pic right?

4a. Please describe the specific and/or unique reasons you have applied to NJMS.
4b. Do you have any current or past connections to New Jersey?
(i.e. family, friends, previous residence, etc.)
I did this morning at like 4 am. They sent it twice to me. There was an error on the first email link.has anyone else recieved Georgetown's secondary app? because I definitely haven't.
ARGH. For Boston University, neither their website nor the current MSAR says that they require calculus. On BU's own website it says the required courses are:
- English Composition or Literature (1 year)
- Humanities (1 year)
- General Chemistry (1 year) with Lab
- Organic Chemistry (1 year) with Lab
- Physics (1 year)
- Biology (1 year) with Lab
However, in the secondary, it lists calculus as a REQUIRED course and you need to fill in how many semesters of it you have taken. It lists as RECOMMENDED a bunch of others like genetics, biochem, etc.
I'm just annoyed because I would have preferred to have not thrown $30 away for no good reason. I did my research, and trusted that the MSAR and BU's own website would set forth if calculus was required. It's too late to talk to the office now, so I guess I'll just have to wait until Monday to clear this up. I'm guessing that they changed calculus to a required course, but forgot to update MSAR and their web site. Anyone else think that's not quite fair of them?

Thanks so much!

Instructions to Edit the List
has anyone else recieved Georgetown's secondary app? because I definitely haven't.
First IL secondary! Just got Pritzker! I know they don't screen, but still exciting if you're an IL resident.
Edit: Rats. I spoke too soon. The link to the actual app (on their website) doesn't work. Perhaps it'll be up later.... Anyone else get in to start it?
Georgetown? If you copy and paste the URL (not just clicking the link) into your browser, that should work.go the email, just checked and the link tot he actual app is still busted

Mine worked.I'm guessing GreenMudPhud is talking about the U of Chicago link. They just sent an email invite this morning, and the link to the secondary on their site doesn't work.

Case's secondary doesn't look that bad. It's way better than JH.
Does the University of Wisconsin no longer have a required essay? I was just glancing at the 2007 secondary questions and UW used to have the following question:
Required: What events in your life influenced your decision to become a physician?
This is to be an original essay written and edited by you and different from the AMCAS essay. (Limit response to 500 words.)
Is this no longer on there?...the current thread indicates there is only an optional 500 word essay
For those of you that have received the Wisconsin secondary, any confirmation would be appreciated.
UIC College of Medicine just e-mailed my password to their status page. No secondary sent yet, and for some reason they put in my permanent address instead of my preferred address. Ugh.
