Has anyone heard from the University of Washington or know when they send out secondaries?
Congratulations!

You are receiving a UC Irvine, School of Medicine 2008 Secondary Application. It is very important that you carefully read the instructions for the secondary application. The online application is available at http://www.ucihs.uci.edu/admissions/.
Your assigned password is UCIKECS. You will need this password till the end of the application cycle.
For any assistance, please contact us at [email protected].
Regards,
Office of Admissions and Outreach
was rochester's applicaiton literally just click one thing about who's sending ur rec? ... and like ur affiliates?... i jsut submitted it and i feel liek it was too short. i'm getting worried waht if i skipped a page...
I go to BU undergrad; my premed advisor said that yes, it really is optional. Unless you have something meaningful to write, don't write it.
Got an email invite for the Drexel secondary this afternoon. No essays, just simple EC questions.
Yo mang,
can you or someone else post these simple EC questions?
Thanks and I love you.
These questions are strangely arousing.There really aren't even EC questions...
Just annoying blanks to fill in (like a table format) that are the same as the AMCAS information, but here they are:
[FONT=Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif]List employment experiences in chronological order. Start with most recent:
.[FONT=Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif]List medically related volunteer activities in chronological order. Start with most recent:
.[FONT=Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif]List extracurricular, other volunteer, or community service activities in chronological order. Start with most recent:.
These questions are strangely arousing.
Thanks. I need some time to myself now. Plus, I like all the formatting you did. That's some hardcore /size /fonting you dropped all over all our asses.
I've got a question about what to write in this section for the BU secondary. I am a person with very strong convictions and morals I wanted to say something about the importance of ethics to me in everyday life as well as in medicine. Will this come across too self-righteous?

Anyone else receive SUNY Upstate yet who applied later than early/mid July? That's when my AMCAS was verified and still no word...
Also, does Rush expect us to just do the secondary ourselves without notification? I know its online but they haven't sent anything to me regarding it so I'm not sure if I can submit it or not?

I got an email from UNC for OOS MD-PhD secondary application. They invited me to continue the application process, but said "Our supplemental application materials for the Fall of 2008 are in development. As soon as the materials are ready, I will email you with information on how to complete your application to the UNC MD-PhD program." I'm not sure if this is the same situation for OOS MD applicants, but I thought it might be.
Since no one posted the stanford essays:
