Question: Has anyone else developed a wonderful appreciation for the ADCOM completely based off of the answers on the FAQ page?

Lol that FAQ page has Dr. Kennedy written all over it.
Thank you very much! Nothing yet though. Got my things in order for a second go around though.
Has anyone received a secondary yet?

Knowing that no one on this board has received a secondary as of yet ameliorates a lot of my anxiety. 🙂
no sir
Goodluck to everybody in this thread, especially you few from last cycles thread still waiting.
I'll be a MS1 this fall and my wife is applying this cycle early decision. I'm more than happy to answer any questions anybody has!

Does your link work?

The links aren't working for my wife.
In the email? Yes
On the Website? That's a big ole Negative Ghostrider.
I thought it was the computer im on but I guess they aren't working for anyone.
My link worked. If you have your secondary from last year saved on your computer, it is exactly the same. So you can just reuse it.
I'm sure that's fine. You may want to call Mrs. Hill and make sure though.
Dr. Kennedy said they're unsure of "what the new scores mean"... but I don't think it's a case of what they will accept or not, just a different interpretation of the scores.
Have you submitted your secondary yet?
I was planning on it, but I still haven't received my secondary so I'm getting nervous
Is your AMCAS verified yet?
Are you in-state?
Yepp

Who wants to talk about diversity?!
Don't get too caught up on the word diversity, just try to make yourself sound unique and say how you would make your med school class more well-rounded and what you would add to your class. That's what I did last year.
Thank goodness I'm not the only one
Yes that happened to me too! I don't understand what's going on.
I have heard that 60-70th percentile is considered competitive at the moment.
For both new and old MCATs?
For the most meaningfuls, spaces don't count, right? I copied and pasted my statements and they were all well within the assigned boxes with 300 characters or less not including spaces. However, spaces provide a different story. Maybe I am just being a bit neurotic though?
I mailed mine on Wednesday July 8th and my receipt from the post office said it will be there on the 11th. My e-mail from Shreveport on July 16 said I had everything on file. Hope this helps a bit.
ED or Regular Application?
Sent it in today! Post office said it would either be in on the 23rd or 24th! IS RD! Can't wait to interview with y'all and hopefully be future classmates!

New.
New. For the old MCAT, the average score for accepted applicants is 28 I believe.

They don't send a secondary until you're verified
Just checked Shreve's website and it says some people receive their secondary's before the primary is verified by aamcs.
