Prompts are exactly the same

EDIT: The spaces says 250 words or less, but the text box itself actually gives 3000 characters. Best to stay under 250 words, I'd say.

Can you copy and paste them here by chance?

 

[ceeattemptsmed]

Anyone else who was verified a while ago still waiting for a secondary ?

 

[Booksandshoes]

Got the secondary!

 

[Theprofessor’sprofessor]

Do we really think it will take 6-8 weeks for them to review Secondaries this late?

Are speeding tickets considered a misdemeanor?

Nah I don't think so

[SAS1908]

No secondary here yet but also had a friend not get his until mid September last year so I hope we’re good. Although I’ve also heard of people never receiving anything else past the primary sooooo who knows lmao.

For those who have received a secondary, when were you verified?

Maybe they’re going in chronological order when sending them out

Verified 6/7!

 

[ceeattemptsmed]

Received. Verified 6/26

 

[FallenYeeter]

Seems to be somewhat chronological. I understand that because obviously give preference to those that had everything completed early. I was complete 7/17 for example and haven’t received one.

I was verified I think in the first couple days and still haven't received one, so maybe not completely chronological. Or maybe I'm just an outlier! lol

 

[HopefulMed20]

Secondary received about 30 min ago! Primary app verification email 7/1

 

[FallenYeeter]

Yeah this process in general makes no sense to me so I’m probably just wrong lol maybe we will get one soon! Fingers crossed

Got my secondary like 5min ago. Verified 7/1

I already graduated and have taken all of the required classes for the majority of medical schools. Did not realize that Howard does not accept biochemistry as an Orgo II replacement like others and was going to not submit my secondary. I am reconsidering now that I received the secondary today... should I take Orgo II in the spring even though I took Orgo I 3 years ago???

So my secondary email invite says:

We invite you to submit the HUCM SECONDARY APPLICATION AND APPLICATION FEE OF $75.00 in support of your HUCM application using the Application Gateway.

But I don't see a link to the application gateway?

Prereq Section: If you repeated a course, do you put both courses or only the class you received the higher grade?

Higher grade only!

I just submitted my app and did not get a confirmation email yet. It appears that for the schools that use this portal, our confirmation email may not come for at least a few days or up until a few weeks after submission.

 

[red melba]

Do we really think it will take 6-8 weeks for them to review Secondaries this late?

I wouldn't be surprised if it took that long since they sent us secondaries so late and since their website says interviews take place from Sept all through April. Hopefully they're able to get back to us relatively soon though!

 

[thegirldownstairs]

just submitted my secondary and no confirmation email either.

 

[mdmandoc]

Submitted and no confirmation

 

[futuredoctor123456789]

[mon9937]

Is it okay to leave the last question about additional information blank?

Isn't it a yes or no question?

 

[ThetisAntithesis]

Received secondary yesterday, submitted last night. Just got email that I'm under full review.
Liking the quick turnaround.
Good luck everyone.
