. I currently live in Miami. It's only a 30-min drive to the school from where I live in Downtown, and the hospital system is only 10 minutes away. I have shadowed doctors at Ryder and Jackson Memorial, and they are simply amazing. They want to teach, the patient population is very diverse, and it's a great opportunity to immerse in a completely different culture. With that said, for those who don't intend to learn Spanish at some point in their life, living in Miami may prove difficult. 
On the changes for 2011 section of the school website it said there is no screen anymore.
Haha sorry, apparently they haven't changed the email template. The 1st email said "the decision to send you secondary will be made"; I haven't gotten the 2nd email but someone said it congrats you to be invited to complete secondary. It's all an illusion my friend.
I am in the same boat as you... I submitted AMCAS on 6/1 and was immediately verified and have received secondaries from a lot of places, but still not from UM. Did you receive an email from U Miami a week or so ago confirming that they had your primary? If so, you're fine. They say they don't screen which means that you WILL eventually get the secondary.
Look at it like this. Miami has a crazy long secondary, and people have already posted the prompts. Just go ahead and write the essays, so that you can submit ASAP once you get the invite. Good luck
I did receive an email from them. Thanks for reminding me. I'll probably start working on the essays soon. You don't by any chance go to UM for undergrad, do you? I submitted my composite letter request on the first day, 6/6, and still haven't received an email stating it has been completed, and I can't seem to find anywhere in their mandatory session power point how long the turnaround time is for these letters. Thanks!
Yes, I forgot.
