This forum made possible through the generous support of SDN members, donors, and sponsors. Thank you.
Congrats on the IIs guys! Stats if you guys don't mind me asking?

I received my secondary on 6/28, verified 6/29, and received a text on 7/6 from Erie saying my app is under review at which time my Erie portal change to "your application is under review." I just checked and my portal still says the same under review message for both. :/ Not sure what to make of this.

Same boat as you buddy, all we can do is wait :/

510/3.9, and I agree, it's still early and there is still time for all of us!

Side note: If I can't schedule an interview until December.. that probably doesn't look good on my part, right?

Wow nice MCAT!!!! I would call them about the interview date since it's so far away. I'm sure they will be receptive to your schedule.

Hey guys does anyone have anything under the Required Letters and Credits folder under admissions. I have MCAT Complete with a red x. Does anyone have this too? Should I be concerned ?

I don't think so. The email they gave us for the interview invite says at the bottom to not worry if your documents are not marked as complete and that it may take up until the week of your interview for them to be marked as received. Hope this helps!
 
Hello all! Congrats to those who have received IIs! So I am coming into this a bit late in the game. Due to some transcript processing troubles, my AACOMAS application was verified on 7/21. Is LECOM still sending out secondaries or have I totally missed out on any chance of going here? Thanks in advance! :help:

I want to do it. It's a good chance to highlight yourself.

However, they don't stay specific what the individual interview will be like... If it will be with the same faculty that interview you during group, will you be repeating the same answer?

Is there anyone that already interview can give us an inside on this?
Last year for my interview date everyone did the individual interview. It could be with the same faculty, mine was, but the majority of them were with different people. And at least for me, there were different questions that focused more on you

Sound like fun thing to do.

I'll be there on the 12th, as well!! I've never posted on here (just wayyy too much lurking), but seeing all these friendships spring up makes me wanna join the party.

Not sure when I'll make it to Erie as I am flying to Cleveland in the afternoon and then driving over, but if you guys wanted to get dinner that night, it sure would be nice to know a couple of faces going into the interview!
