I'm verified and pre-writing the secondary. If my MCAT scores get released in late August, is there any point in sending in the secondaries early?
For the pre-reqs it says to list course name and course number, but they only give a box for course number. What did you guys do for this? Just list course number?

umm there should be a "course" column with drop-down menu for "biology," "physics", "organic chemistry," etc.
i would call admissions and see what they suggest...good luck
wouldn't course name be something like "Principles of Biology 1"?

Yes, what's wrong with your planned approach? Sounds quite acceptable.
For the pre-reqs, I've taken a 9 bio courses and 16 humanities courses etc --- several courses that exceed the requirements, should I put them all in or just the minimal to meet the requirement? Cuz for orgo the requirement is only one semester --- so only list Orgo I or both?
I applied last Monday (July 9) and still haven't received a secondary. I was verified June 9 and my LORs and MCAT were in before then. Is this the case for anybody else?
It sounds planned now but as soon as I start typing in Word my mind will be all over the place with possibilities. Just stick with one approach?
I think its ridiculous that out of the 109 seats every year, 59 are filled from other methods than AMCAS. That means that all of us who applied the regular way are competing for just 40 seats. talk about competition.
There are 59 PMLE or whatever? That seems fairly ridiculous
last year: 52 amcas, 39 pmle (six deferred), 15 through linkage (bryn mawr, etc), and three through early identification program.
Got a complete email today, submitted the day after it came out!

You should be automatically admitted for catching that.Hate to be the one to do this, but doesn't 109-59= 50 spots that we are fighting for? Still sucks, but better than 40 for sure =]
So when I preview the secondary, my essays all show up as one paragraph. For the last two, I had two paragraphs, Confused....
it is absolutely absurd how many formatting/glitches there have been w/ this year's group of secondaries. absolutely absurd.Shameless bump. How'd everyone deal with this?

For the 2012-2013 activities prompt, should we be typing out an essay or listing each activity with a brief description?

For some reason I can't access the application, like the connection won't get through. Anyone else having this problem? Also is there any prompt that asks for additional information? I'd like to add "Why Brown" if possible.

If you're clicking the link... make sure you type it in or text copy.
Thanks bro @ceasefire Thanks for the information. I just think it'd be important to give reasons why you're applying to the specific school to show you're a good fit. I guess Brown feels other things are more important *shrug*
Is anyone else having trouble logging in to the secondary? I keep getting an Error message... I was able to log in and start my secondary yesterday and I'm ready to submit now but can't! I tried firefox and safari and get Error message in both browsers... Any ideas?
Did anybody else get that packet of info on Brown med in the mail?
lol yes, got excited for no reason at all.. not even sure what I thought it might be. Accepted with no interview??? False hope.
I was verified on 7/16, but I'm yet to receive a secondary. How long did everyone else wait before getting an e-mail?
Having trouble getting back into the secondary to submit. Typed it in as well as tried copying it and pasting but no luck. Could someone else try opening the secondary app portal and let me know if its working for you or not? Thanks, I appreciate it.
Down.

Are you guys getting the, "An error occurred while processing your request. Please contact the help desk for assistance." message when you try to log in to the secondary portal? Seems as if the site is still down...... Frustrating. Trying to submit the secondary!
what kind of area is providence/the area surrounding brown? suburban?
