How would one go about finding this?! I have no idea where to start or who to ask
I just called my high school; they still had them on file 18 years later.

My AMCAS application isn't verified yet but I got an email from one school that says application from AMCAS received. How can this be?!
I was slogging through writing essays for the sea of secondaries today when I unexpectedly received an interview invite from a Texas school. I didn't think I would get any love from Texas: out of state and my undergrad GPA was, ehm, less than stellar. I hope that everyone can maintain a positive outlook through the stress of this year. Miracles do happen, it seems. Get those apps in so that we can all meet up on the interview trail! I'd love to put some faces with the names of fellow nontrads. Good luck everyone.
Im applying. What'd you see for rent? Would think that leaving the immediate dc area would be cheaperAnyone else apply to George Washington U? Looks like a great school, but holy high rent...

Yeah, it's definitely an expensive city. That's actually quite a bit cheaper for me compared to where i'm living now (seattle). That said, when having no income and surviving only off of loans, rent above and beyond $100 a month will feel excruciatingly painful! Good for you for applying even with a family in tow!
It is, just high cost of living.Haha living in Las Vegas has spoiled me. $800 a month for a three bedroom house and a backyard in a decent area in Henderson. Seattle must be expensive. I have a friend living up there and he's always shocked when he comes back to visit because he forgets how cheap it is down here. Seattle seems like an awesome city though!

And waiting for verification is brutal. Stupid quarter system
I'm thinking you're asking me. I only applied to a few schools, but my MCAT and grades are all posted already so that may be why. Half of mine prescreened secondaries, half did not.how many schools are you applying to? There are still several schools that i have not yet received secondaries from even though my application was sent on the first. I am thinking some of it may be because my MCAT scores aren't released until the 21st, although i didn't think many schools did any initial pre-screening before sending out secondaries.
First pre-secondary rejection this morning. Band-aid needed to be ripped off sometime!
Boo!
I'm still waiting on ~half of the schools to send me their secondaries.
@Eccesignum was the school that rejected you a reach? Were you anticipating that might have been the result or did it come out of the blue? Hope you hear better news from your other schools!
I'm actually happy for the delay in receiving secondaries as i'm still waiting for my mcat scores to be released (on the 21st). From what i had read there is this huge pressure to get everything submitted ASAP and that any delay means other students are filling spots and that taking the mcat when i did (june 19th) was starting to get risky. That said, because of the delay in receiving secondary applications (my app was sent out to schools on first possible day), not having my mcat scores released until the 21st doesn't seem to actually be delaying me much. That's a relief, and something i wish i had known at the start of this whole process.

Just got verified! Have two secondaries to schools that didn't screen nearly complete and ready to send those along too! Getting my official MCAT score on the 21st along with a bunch of you guys and hoping that my 90th-100th percentile gives me a boost. GPA repairs for the win.
The day of score release was the absolute worst. I think mine was damn near 4 pm EST that it was finally released. I sat and refreshed twitter every 3o seconds or so for like 6 hours at work... Then I jumped up and down like a child opening a Nintendo 64.

And same for me, then I couldn't get myself to look for at least a couples hours. Waited until after my classes and lab that day
congrats! Hoping I hear something soon as well but not going to "fret" until the month is over.Got my first II!
