Sure! They had a couple of midweek days left in September (17th and 24th) but the earliest weekend dates were 10/20 and 10/24.

+1 Woo! Can't wait congrats guys!
Congrats! 🙂
And I am also 29 MCAT OOS!
you must mean 7:30am, right?
I would be wary of that. With that timeline, you'll be leaving the city during 5pm traffic, and on top of that you'll probably have to deal with 40 traffic, which can get moderately bad. I would say you have an 80-90% chance of being fine; it's up to you how much risk you want to take.
Thanks!
Nvm.
Misread your question. Carry on. Congrats on the II btw.No worries 🙂 and thank you!Nvm.
I added wake on 8/17 and still haven't received a secondary...should I call or how long should I wait?
lol I was verified 8/14 and still no secondary. No rejection either, so I'm pretty confused

The medical school application process can be summarized, "Hurry up and wait" for a reason. Wake hasn't forgotten you, they are just pretty swamped right now. Don't worry!
I spoke to someone in the Admissions office and was told that I would have enough time to catch a 6 pm flight at PTI after the interview. Should I book a later flight just in case?
Here it says that it takes about 45 minutes to get to the airport from campus. http://www.wakehealth.edu/School/MD-Program/Interview-Information.htm
I was in the same boat, and received the secondary 3 weeks after my score was released.

What is the largest selectivity factor for Wake Forest? Submitted a week ago and waiting for a secondary now.
What's the average wait time been for receiving a complete email? I submitted my secondary on Aug 20, and am wondering if I should send admissions an email?
i submitted mine end of july, and i just got a complete email a few days ago (so it nearly took a month for me to be complete)
awesome, thank you!
I submitted the secondary on 7/26, got a complete email on 8/11, and received II 8/20.
Sounds like hearsay. I'd take this with a grain of salt. Usually a month or two post completion without a word is cause for worry.
Not sure I'd believe this either, unless this is specific to Wake Forest SOM. I've heard plenty of people get invites many months after submission of their secondary (though maybe Wake Forest does it differently). Usually it's mostly people with very high stats who are receiving multiple interview invites this early. The rest of us mortals have to wait it out until October-March to hear back from schools about IIs.
Of course, this doesn't stop me from obsessively checking my inbox every couple of hours...
Interesting... I am waiting for my second MCAT scores but still received a secondary
I certainly hope you are correct and I am not.

Doessss this mean I'm on hold? "Your application is complete. Interviews are by invitation from September to March. If you are invited, you will receive a e-mail or phone call to schedule an interview."
Thanks and sorry if someone has already asked this!

Nope! I had that status, but I received an II in the first round! It may just mean that your application has been reviewed and a decision has been made about whether or not to extend an II. Best of luck!
Also placed on hold while waiting on my MCAT score. Received a 30. hopefully they'll update my file, and I'll keep my fingers crossed for an II 😀
Placed on hold? Did you get an email saying you are on hold? I was complete mid July haven't heard a word... OOS 73
The email stated that I was placed on hold, pending my new MCAT scores. I have yet to receive the secondary.
I added Wake on 07/24, got the secondary 08/08, and submitted it 08/13. I haven't heard anything since and have yet to get the "complete" email
Added Wake about 2 or 3 weeks ago, just got an email with my log in info. This is my status:
"Your primary application from AMCAS has been received. It is being evaluated and you will be sent an e-mail notification of your status within 1-2 weeks."
Hoping to get the secondary in the next week or so, I have it pre-written already but I hope it's not too late to submit it by then...

I'm a re-applicant with a II from here--however this is my first time applying to Wake Forest. From what I hear though, it shouldn't really make a difference (as long as you have improved your application in some way).
II today, OOS, ~70.
when were you complete?
i submitted my secondary 2 weeks ago today but still haven't been marked complete
Same boat as you, submitted 8/21 and still not marked complete. I submitted this one a little later than I would have liked, but would love to get an II here.
hopefully we're in the same batch of being marked complete!!! this would definitely be a dream to interview
I submitted it on 8/13 and havne't been marked complete either lol... It says it takes up to two weeks, I guess they're just behind
Really glad I'm not the only one. I submitted 8/18 and still not marked as complete. I panicked for a moment and thought that I had forgotten to send in LORs or something but I guess they're just a little slow on processing apps.

Very end of August
After submitting my secondary, it took about a month for me to receive my complete email.
When were you complete and when is your interview if you don't mind sharing?
Just got an II today and signed up for a Nov 3rd interview! Very excited. I'm OOS, low undergrad GPA, high post-bacc GPA and 35 MCAT. Non-trad. Oh, and complete 7/22
