Damn. What do you do if you're interested in the programs, but would rather do a different specialty like emergency medicine, sports med, etc.?

If you are interested you should definitely talk to someone who is in the program so they could give you more insight. I don't know how choosing specialty works in this case.

For anyone, the default reaction is to be concerned, so I can't blame you. However, it's best to be concerned with those that you have control over. Like your essays for the other schools that sent you secondaries.
sorry if this is a repost, but are we just supposed to just rephrase our primary W/A section? I have no idea what the point of this secondary is tbh
I really don't think so. I have buddies from UC Davis with LM of 73-76 who haven't gotten it yet. Here's to hoping!
Last year many instate applicants got their secondaries in September

how long did it take you guys for your application to be complete after submission of LOR?
Within a business day. I found that when I submit my applications on the weekends they are not considered complete until the next business day.

Thanks!! Im excited. Earliest interview date was 8/16/19, Stats are in my signature, and complete 7/9/19
What about if your interested, but don't necessarily have a lot of experience? For example, I'm interested in the ARC-MD program, but only did research for a year under an MSTP, but don't really have much to show for it.
Also, do y'all know if the conversion from quarter units to semester is basically dividing quarter units earned by half?
Appreciate any responses.
UCD sent me an email saying they received my primary on 7.17 but so far I still haven't gotten a II. My stats are on par with this school and I'm IS from Norcal (Santa Cruz). Should I be concerned?
You mean secondary or II?

Oops, meant secondary. I thought "II" meant secondary lol cuz it's a roman numeral 2. I'm guessing it means like "interview invitation"?
Weird. What are your stats like?
GPA 3.91, MCAT 511
Damn. Where are you from? I'm 3.72 and 513 from Norcal
I'm from SoCal
In that case why haven't I gotten a secondary yet?
UC Davis also likes lucky applicants. It seems you're unlucky.

SoCal Resident here, got Davis but not Riverside. Sometimes its a matter of mission fit/luck/timing as well, so try not to sweat it too much secondaries may still be rolling out slowly.
Damn it I knew it
When did they receive your primary?

Anyone verified July 4th and still waiting for secondary?
Frantically checking the portal and email for an interview invite!!
Anybody else having trouble with the "fee paid" thing?
Though I guess they're not wrong in my case... I had the secondary app fee waived.

Do you think it will hurt to not go to the "optional" student run clinic session on Saturday after the Friday interview. Really do not want to spend an extra day in Sacramento if I do not have to! Will it actually affect my admission chances?
I wouldn’t think that would matter
I was verified a month ago and still no secondary, should I call? Socal resident
