This isn't like dating.
Yeah curious about this too
Does that mean they DON'T track when secondaries are sent and received, because my understanding is that they do, and it's one measure of level of interest in the school (maybe more meaningful on the front end than unenforceable declarations of love in May on the back end when candidates are reduced to begging?).This isn't like dating.

As someone who had multiple acceptances, most from schools in which I submitted my secondary 1-1.5mo after I received them, I would say it doesn't matter. As long as you send them "early" in terms of the applicant pool you are good
Na, it’s more like tinder. Most schools just keep swiping left though.This isn't like dating.
I pre-wrote* my secondaries and submitted the same day I got them. Multiple schools mentioned that I had submitted first during interviews.
Were you also verified before transmission? I wonder if in your case, it was more related to submitting on the first day that they sent secondaries to anyone vs submitting on the same (potentially later) day you get them. Also, wow @ your 50% II rate! Obviously late, but congratulations!!!
Thanks, yeah I was verified. Possibly, I know specifically at one of the programs I was the first person to submit a secondary that cycle and it ended up as an A.Were you also verified before transmission?

Turned in my secondary for the school I'm matriculating at ~3 months after receiving it. They also gave me a full scholarship so it doesn't seem they cared at all.
Whatever you do OP don't rush through them because if you make silly mistakes it is never fun to have reach out about something you selected wrong.
