2019-2020 East Tennessee (Quillen)

Med School Insiders
This forum made possible through the generous support of SDN members, donors, and sponsors. Thank you.
Just a friendly heads up from last year's cycle (current M1 at Quillen). One person on SDN reportedly got their secondary around this time in July. Not sure if they were Early Decision or not, but everyone else got them the first week in August so stay patient. Tag me with any questions you guys have good for the public and message me with anything else! Good luck to you all.

Loving it. Chose it over other MD acceptances and feel more and more confident in that decision every day. White coat ceremony tomorrow to formally conclude orientation then diving into embryo Monday! Can’t recommend Quillen enough.

Also haven’t taken the Casper test. I take it tomorrow.
 
I have not received a secondary, but I did get an email on July 23rd that said they had received my application.

I have the same issue. Were you able to figure out what’s going on?

No but I'm assuming today is the first day they sent out secondary invites (could be wrong tho) and there's on a bug on their end they need to fix. It almost looks like they didn't upload the questions maybe? Probably need to call the office if multiple people are having the same problem

That was my guess, too. Thanks for posting something on this thread! Glad I’m not the only one with this issue
 
If anyone ends up figuring out the way to actually see the questions or if someone emails/calls the office, post an update on here please!
 
IS, same here. I paid the application fee through and am worried I won't be able to fill out the questions
 
Anybody else not get a secondary, but got a survey instead?

Anyone else having trouble deciding which 3 questions to answer?
 
I didn't see the three out of five part and answered them all.... Submitted.
 
Any OOS receive secondary yet? I have competitive stats and I'm a veteran, so I was hoping to at least get a secondary from East Tennessee. I'm OOS though, so maybe that's why?

I'm OOS and haven't recieved a secondary either. I'm hoping they just send OOS a little later because if I remember correctly, on the MSAR it says they accept OOS applicants.
