Hi! just a quick question..I have been stressing over the LORs. Just to be sure, 2 letters from my science professors and one from my clinical research supervisor will suffice?
What's the latest word on the character limit for the secondary questions?
(I haven't received an invite yet and it looks like I can't make an account without one)
No character or word limit...just says short essay so write until you feel u have fully expressed yourself
anyone else struggle with these prompts? i think the first one was one of the more challenging i've tackled this season!
Do you instantly recieve an email for the secondary after paying the fee? I paid it and haven't recieved anything after a day.
dear ______ ,
it is acceptable to have longer responses that extend beyond the space. We receive a symbol notification that indicates there is additional information past the text box on your supplemental. As a result, we expand the space on our end to ensure all your information is included in your application.
If you should have any other questions, please feel free to contact our office.
Sincerely,

I received an email stating that I have entered the screening process. Keeping my fingers crossed .

Soooooo please don't attack me for this display of ignorance, but...what does it mean to be "small-pooled"?

I just paid the fee, and a minute later received the email. Good luck.
just started pre-writing this one, does anyone else find their website very hard to navigate through? I feel they need to update the whole thing and revamp it
Heeeeey guys - So um... totally random, unrelated-to-anything question but...
What does a life in discovery mean to you? You know, I was just thinking deep, abstract, philosophical thoughts, and this question just popped in to my head.
By the way, nobody read the secondary application ok?...there's nothing much interesting in there...
I tackled it in two parts.
1) How I model my life after Christopher Columbus and Louis Champlain, always sailing around in boats and stuff looking around for stuff.
2) I carry a metal detector on me at all times.
how quick was the turnaround between payment and the confirmation email for the secondary?
they sent me an e-mail confirmation that im in the screening process and will get a confirmation when its done in 4-6 weeks (or longer) and if i wanna check the progress to e-mail them no status pageJust to clarify...once the secondary is submitted and letters are in, we just wait around for an email, no status page to check on? I've looked, but I just end up back on the secondary...

any current students want to comment on RFU?
How ironic... just got an email from them!
"Your file is complete and has passed a primary screening. This means you are in the pool of applicants who may be invited to interview with CMS. However, this does not guarantee an invitation and you may be invited to interview or declined an interview at anytime during the admissions process.
CMS is interviewing from September- April, with invitations being sent out via email. Please let us know if you have any further questions."
Anyone know if it's just small-pool or reject at this point? Or are they offering interviews?
I got the same email. I have no idea if this is good or bad- I feel pretty neutral about it.

got this today as well.
I suppose this is better than a flat out rejection. I think it's too early to give out interviews, too - based on last year's thread, they didn't start sending interview invites until September 2. But, they also didn't start primary screenings until roughly July 20 - so looks like they are doing it faster this year. I wonder how many actually get small-pooled...... I'm willing to bet the pools aren't so small!
