Joining in on the bandwagon...
Just submitted all my letters (thank God my post bacc does online submissions instead of snail mail)
And about to submit secondary tonight!
Y'all think it's okay I'm submitting it now when I got it July 2nd? I was officially verified 6/30.

Yes. I got mine then as well and don't plan on submitting this one until next week.

This is how I feel about you rn

 

[musicalfeet]

Congrats!! Do you mind sharing your stats?

Stats are right around their range. I submitted the secondary like 2 days after I received it (I had it prewritten already pretty much).

 

[nh278]

II! 🙂

Congrats!!! 🙂 When was your app completed?

I think like 7/6 or something. I had a 2 day turnaround.

Ugh I have so much respect for people like you who legit do 2, 3-day turnarounds
It takes me forever to get into a "writing zone" and then crunch it out

To be fair...I started pre-writing in May. Haha...and I'm applying to 32 schools. So I had most of them done and ready to turn around in 2 days (although I failed to do some of the essays...and now I have to write again and @_@ I can't imagine juggling 3-4 secondaries at a time)

you smartie.
Yeah... waiting and doing a "mental break" after turning in amcas early june may have been a mistake on my part.
I blame it all on the 12+ drafts I did for my ps.
CURSE YOU PS

Exactly the same!

Congrats!!!! No word yet. I completed on July 2 LizzyM 74.5 I wonder how the different schools do this. Any enlightened ones on this thread care to shed some light?

 

[misterwives]

Just got an interview invitation! My first one!!!

Secondary invitation: July 2
Secondary submitted: July 16
Application complete: July 17
LizzyM score of 71.30

 

[DR.MIke]

Do they read applications in the order they were complete? Because I got my application complete email on july 9th and now I'm starting to get worried.

 

[HybridEarth]

Likewise... 13th here.

 

[hopeful418]

What is everyone's status? Mine says "under review" but I can't remember if that's a change from "complete" or not...

 

[HybridEarth]

Mine has been in review for a week now. :/

 

[HybridEarth]

Edit: after reviewing last cycle's thread, some people who were complete in mid July were getting II's the week after the first wave of rejections were sent near the end of August. No need to worry yet

 

[mk2015]

[HybridEarth]

[agoron]

Complete on the 16th! I know that's a little late, but my school didn't upload committee packets to AMCAS until the 15th. Hopefully I have a shot at an interview! 3.94/3.93 with a 30.

 

[HybridEarth]

Good luck bud.

 

[breezy16]

Submitted 7/5. Complete 7/9. LizzyM 68.

Any MD/PhD applicants get an II get?

 

[vantheman]

Is it a bad sign if people who were offered IIs were complete after I was?

 

[Chasing Never Land]

Submitted 7/19, under review now

What did your status change from--> to?

 

[summergirl]

Submitted Jul 18 (Saturday) and it's been under review 2 minutes after I submitted it. Fingers crossed for an II today!!!

 

[HybridEarth]

We're just gonna have to be patient for the next month until the first wave of rejections go out.

[HybridEarth]

It seems like they're reviewing them out of order. Hmm

 

[breezy16]

I couldn't find anywhere that said they reviewed on a rolling basis, does anyone have an idea?

It seems like they're reviewing them out of order. Hmm

 

[HybridEarth]

No clue. Last year, some people who submitted late July got rejected in August, and some in mid July got interview invites in early September after the first wave of rejections. Trying to maintain sanity lolol

 

[HalpSendHalp]

That little (big) dance you do when your letters are officially into AMCAS.
