Hey everyone,
Based on experiences, what is the average turnaround period for recieving secondaries from schools. What schools are the fastest and which ones take a little longer?
Thanks for any insight
 
For me:

LECOM Erie
LECOM Bradenton
KCOM
have websites through which the secondaries are filled out. So they had very quick (< 1 week) turnarounds after submitting my primary my application.

VCOM
PCOM-GA
WCU-COM
took a little bit longer (~2 weeks)as theirs were sent via E-mail.

I have yet to receive a secondary from Pikesville...and its been something like 4 months.

LECOM Erie and Bradenton= in like a couple days.
Western= a month
Touro NV=a few weeks
Touro CA= a month
NSU= a couple of weeks
PNWU= a few days
AZCOM= a few days
ATSU= a few days

It might be longer now. I had my AACOMAS submitted in mid to late August I think.
 
I received all of my secondaries within a week. Some schools screen, so you might want to check their requirements in the CIB before forking over your $50 bucks or whatever. It really just depends on the school. And let's not get started on how long it takes between secondary to interview invite.
