I love these emails. I get all excited, then BAM! Nothing...Oh well, at least those few moments of joy were worth the let down.

haha yah i bet they get a kick out of it. Congratulations Mr. X...wake forest has decided too!!!!!!!!do nothing and make you wait more for us. Once again congratulations and thank you for applying to wake forest university 😛
 
Oh man I saw the email and thought I passed the initial screening but I guess we all have to wait longer to see!
 
That was such a tease... And of course, I instantly jump on SDN to see if I was the only unlucky one to get the "thanks for applying, we'll let you know" email. At least I'm not alone lol.
 
That email was almost cold and rude... especially coming right after Mount Sinai's warm one. No thank you, no good wishes, no nothing. Just, "don't call us."

Hahaha, that's exactly how I read them. Mount Sinai's had me feeling pretty good, and Wake Forest is essentially like, "Don't call me, I'll call you". Oh well, I'll wait on you Wake!

I'm getting the error message when I try to check my status. Annoying.

FYI everybody - you can check your application status. I got the email yesterday too, and I checked my app status this morning and this is what I saw:

"Your AMCAS application has been evaluated and we are sending you our secondary application by e-mail. Please allow 2 weeks for the application to be sent to you as we send them out in batches."

So check there and you may know already if you're getting a secondary or not!

Yay! I got the message. Does that mean we were really successfully screened?
 
Wohoo getting a secondary too!

I'm in-state also... I think they give some preference? I would love to go to Wake

Oh I'm just going off of acceptance and interview %'s I've read... It could be due to a number of factors

Good luck everyone 🙂
 
Uh oh, mine says it is still under review. I guess I can't celebrate with the rest of you, at least not yet apparently.

Me too.....makes me feel better cause you have some nice stats 👍

We just have to stay positive for now. I imagine they have a lot of applications, and they will get to us soon enough.
 
I'm still under review as well.

Good looking out. When I first tried to check my status I got an error message, so I doubt I would've checked again for a while. Nice to know ahead of time... I hope they wait the full two weeks to send secondaries out though.
 
Woohoo! I'm getting a secondary. Anyone know how much the application fee is?

So glad I could offer a bit of comfort. 😛

It seems ridiculous to me, but it really was comforting to know you were waiting too. I don't know why. Hopefully we will all know by this evening.
 
My status just changed to going to receive the secondary in 1-2 weeks 🙂
 
blah... I can't even log in!

this must mean I've already been rejected 🙁

I checked earlier and got the "under review" msg, but now I am getting a wack error msg...seems like a balky system.
 
finally got into the system.....

I'm getting a secondary! first screened one 😀
 
Ok, so I was thinking. Does everyone who has made it past the screen have a last name relatively early in the alphabet? And everyone who is still under review have one semi-late? Maybe they are reviewing in alphabetical order. :shrug:
 
My last name starts with A. Sorry.
 
Your AMCAS application has been evaluated and we are sending you our secondary application by e-mail. Please allow 2 weeks for the application to be sent to you as we send them out in batches.

I've been screened in!

Were you verified pre- or post- 6/24?
Click to expand...
I was verified 6/19 but didn't add WFU until 6/30, so maybe I'm just not in the first batch.

Haha, I'm just the kind of person that likes to know why things happen. They obviously didn't review in order of verification because my app was verified by 10:30 on June 2. Just trying to figure out the method to Wake's madness. Maybe they are just drawing apps out of a hat.

And I totally forgot to say this but congrats to all you kiddos who passed the screen. :highfive:
