Please PM the essays or lack thereof to me when the secondary is available and I will update this.

Good luck to everyone applying! :luck:

Gettheleadout, while I commend you for attempting to be a hero and create threads for each school, I felt I must correct you.. I have followed this year's threads but needed to create an account to inform you that Buffalo State does NOT have a medical school... It may be a good idea to do a little research if you're going to waste your time making threads without having received secondaries yet. Good attempt, though!

Yeah, Buff State is Buffalo State College, not UB, which is SUNY Buffalo. SUNY Buffalo has a medical school. Buffalo State does not.

Creation and management of school-specific threads is a job we delegate amongst the mod staff.

Sorry guys, I used the AAMC's list of schools (http://services.aamc.org/memberlistings/index.cfm?fuseaction=home.search&search_type=MS) to make the threads and it does read "University at Buffalo State University of New York School of Medicine & Biomedical Sciences" which I must have inadvertently shortened to Buffalo State University.

I've corrected the thread title.

Way to be a jerk...

Anyway, for anyone in this medical school, how bad are the winters?
 
I will be applying here. I am a florida resident and I feel like I needed some thing a little colder with some snow. I hope they are out of state friendly and grant me an interview....

Oh you'll get snow all right, This is where my wife grew up. You'll wake up to 10 foot snow drifts from 10-15mph winds during a snowstorm in October! But you will be close to anchor bar, and only about a half hour to 45 minutes to canada/niagara falls which is a fun mini trip.

Am I missing something or is that all there is to it? That was the first secondary I received so I don't know if all of them are like this

Hey how many letters of recommendations should we submit to them? I looked on line to see what they require and I can't find it anywhere. Please let me know where I should be looking. :/
 
hey guys I'm applying here too and this is definitely one of my top choices! my secondary was sent to them on friday and my committee letter has already been sent to AMCAS... hopefully this whole applying early thing gives me that extra edge that I need. does anyone know when they start giving out interviews?
 
Regarding the research laboratory question- does clinical research count? I am not running gels in a lab. I work at the Hospital for Special Surgery and consent patients to be in studies and also attend surgeries to record intra-operative data. Should I answer this question yes? Or they not referring to clinical research?

THANKS!!!

Anyone else having issues at the log-in and getting "Invalid login credentials"?
 
Ok so my status page says Secondary Received, but that the Application Fee wasn't. I got the ePayment receipt via email though. Should I be worried?
 
My letters were received 2 days ago at AMCAS. Application says fee paid, secondary recieved (over a week ago), but application still not complete. How long has it been taking for UB to mark your applications as fully complete?
 
I wish every secondary was like this. Also, I love really cold winters, so here's hoping for some love from Buffalo. :luck:
