I don't get it. Does this mean they have my signature page or not?

I took the newer SAT in 2005, which consists of critical reading, math, and writing? Why does the application still have the old sat score format? There are 3 sections, not 2!! What did you guys do?

Anyone else find it really weird that they ask for SAT scores? I mean, would they actually weigh those against us? We took those like, four years ago (more for some folks).

The TMDSAS asked for both SAT and ACT scores. I took these things around 13 years ago (I think?!). Not wanting to leave them blank, I called my old school district, and they found them on a microfiche of my high school transcript. At a loss for why they need/want these scores.

At any rate, I finally completed the WF secondary today!! Now I guess I'll throw them into the 'waiting to hear back' pile.

They aren't necessary, so I always just leave it all blank...

Interesting. So you have a message different than this one?

Have you even received the email about a status page? If not, then they haven't acknowledged receipt of your primary, so I don't think they would screen you out without looking at it.

Even after the email acknowledging receipt of your primary it may take a little while for them to screen you. Then, because they send them out in batches it might take a few weeks for you to receive the secondary. Best wishes.
 
Same here Mega. Does anyone know how long it really will take if i submitted my verified AMCAS today?
 
I tried adding the critical reading and writing and putting that sum into the verbal section, but there the characters don't fit!! If you add the two sections it gives 4 characters, but the verbal only fits 3 characters.!!!
 
My status changed to:

"All materials necessary to evaluate your application have been received. Your file is currently under review. Please allow 1-2 weeks for this review"

:scared:
 
same here guys. wakeforest is really fast. they say 2-3 weeks last time, but it was like 2-3 days. maybe we'll hear by next week

I didn't get a complete email, but my status says this: "All materials necessary to evaluate your application have been received. Your file is currently under review. Please allow 1-2 weeks for this review." I'm guessing that means complete? 1-2 weeks before an interview decision though seems pretty speedy, so maybe the review is just an audit for completeness...
