hey, I took Mythology, does that count as English literature?
Congrats!!! How long did it take for you to get the complete email?
I tried calling but nothing. Argh. Hoping for news this week.
When did you submit? Please, share?
Is the email with the subject title "Secondary has been received/screened" the complete email? Or just the receipt email? This is the first correspondence that I've gotten since submitting.
It also says "all of your documents have been received and a preliminary review has taken place". Can someone who has received a complete email let me know.

@Precious I got the same email today. It also stated not to view the status page but to wait until mid December for updates.
I received the same email as well...the fact that interview protocol is included must mean we aren't out the game
When did you submit?

When did you submit? Trying to figure out the timeline when I should call?
Submitted 9/11. I know that was late compared to many people on here but I had to add the school late on in the process
9/13, for the MD-PhD program
Thank you everyone, I have submitted on 8/23 but have not heard a peep yet! It is my number one choice since I am from the area...
9/11. Was surprised to get the complete email so soon; well at least compared to those who have submitted prior to me.
just wondering if my application was put into the rejection pile, e-mails of which are coming out may be at the end of the month, but I will call on Thursday to find out for sure
@MD/DO_2016 same
I will keep you guys posted about what they'll say on Thursday
I just got the complete today. I thought I was complete a month ago. =) 
what is the cutoff for Howard Med this year with the new mcat?

"In addition, you should review the Medical School Admissions Requirements information available on the AMCAS site. With respect to the scoring of the new MCAT we will be paying close attention to the percentile rankings. For instance, a score of 500 ranks an applicant in the 50th percentile. Our average MCAT score for the previous years test was 27 - or the 61.5 percentile".
According to the email sent with the secondary link

Thanks!
Any updates on II?
Is anybody else calling admissions today? I called like 50 times from 4 different phones, but there is no response... I wonder if they are all off and at the National Mall, because the pope is in town 😡
They probably need some Jesus right now with all these thousands of applications :[emoji3]
They may just be overwhelmed with applications at this point lol
lol if u went in person it would be different like night and day...I know for a fact
Would you suggest I do that? Did you go?
I have been trying to contact the MD PhD program to send a statement of interest and cv is that how you applied to MDPhD after sending your secondary? The MDPhD website is very....vague
Didn't you designate the MD-PhD program in AMCAS? I might have foolishly believed that that's all I need to do. Alternatively, you can get in touch with admissions and see if you're missing something. That's probably what I will do next week.

Their email pretty much stated that 61.5 percentile was competitive.
that was the average which means that people scored below and above 61.5 %
Any II?
