Most didn't get a secondary yet soAnyone get an II yet?
hey! has anyone gotten a secondary yet? this is my last school i'm waiting on
Few others and I received a secondary on July 24th. No one else has reported receiving it after that date and several people are still missing one. They seem to be slow in the pre-screen process. Don't worry, I believe the next wave of secondary should be coming soon, hopefully by mid-August.hey! has anyone gotten a secondary yet? this is my last school i'm waiting on
stil early a majority of people don't have. I believe the bulk of them will come out next week.should I contact admissions to express my interest if I still didn't receive secondary or is it still early?
Did you call to ask? Any insider scoop? I would be hype if it came out next weekstil early a majority of people don't have. I believe the bulk of them will come out next week.
"believe" just an intuition.Did you call to ask? Any insider scoop? I would be hype if it came out next week
I would wait, at least until the next wave of secondary applications. Only a few received one in the first wave, so majority seem to be still waiting. Plus they may be wrapping things up for ED applicants, although I haven't seen any II's on this thread.should I contact admissions to express my interest if I still didn't receive secondary or is it still early?
July 21stWhen did you guys receive the cooper received your application email?
I've heard they are more on the intense side of screening. They've stated on their website they have a criteria of what they're looking for and have accepted applicants below cutoffs. I vaguely remember something like that posted on their pagei got a secondary, out of state. Does their delayed/screening process for secondaries mean anything? Or are they just looking for >3.0 and >500?
Selection Criteria - Cooper Medical School of Rowan Universityi got a secondary, out of state. Does their delayed/screening process for secondaries mean anything? Or are they just looking for >3.0 and >500?

As an in-stater this is not the most appealing choice out of the three Jersey med schools, but its really hard to dispute those secondary to interview to acceptance percentages...

Are you able to share the approximate statistics? Would be interesting to know...
Lol bro. As an ISer I just want to get in somewhere first, Cooper or not, then I'll worry about picking and choosing. I'm grateful for them keeping my hopes alive by throwing a secondary my way. That being said, Rutgers needs to come through soon.As an in-stater this is not the most appealing choice out of the three Jersey med schools, but its really hard to dispute those secondary to interview to acceptance percentages...
I feel you (fellow in-state applicant). I would be happy getting in anywhere, Rutgers or Rowan or *potentially* Seton Hall if it manages to open up.Lol bro.
