Have you received USUHS Secondary?

I have now received a secondary from everyone but USUHS.

Does anyone know if they are slow at sending these?

They may be, but I know some people already have interviews. Try giving them a call.

I have been wondering if I should fill it out before I receive invititation.

The FAQ page http://www.usuhs.mil/medschool/somfaq.html :

The Committee does NOT automatically send the secondary application to every applicant; they are screened.

Yet the secondary you linked says

Your verified AMCAS application has not yet arrived in the Admissions Office. Therefore, you are receiving this request for Supplemental Materials based on preliminary data, before any review of your credentials

These seem contradictory?

This confused me to no end, as well. I e-mailed them about it and never got a response, so I just submitted everything anyways.

Ok, sounds like I should not both emailing them.

I will try the telephone next week.

I also e-mailed them for another issue a while ago and they never responded to that one either, so calling would be a good idea.

As far as I know, they don't screen applicants. As soon as they received preliminary information from AMCAS that I was applying to their school, they sent me a link to their secondary materials. Thus, I had them turned in on the 27th of June, a couple weeks before my AMCAS application was even finalized and sent out. Note that I didn't even have an MCAT score on file.

It doesn't cost any money to turn in, so you may as well do it. Not sure why the email wouldn't have made it out to your in-box. Call them and see what is going on.
