The interview has changed since me....you used to have to do some weird sim-center encounter with a fake patient but thankfully for you guys, thats not a thing anymore. Now I think you just have the two faculty interviews which are both very chill. Everyone at temple is genuine and will appreciate if you are genuine and show what a "person" you are not how many things you've accomplished. You have the stats, they know about your experience, focus on trying to get them to get to know you.
II received!! Complete 7/30

Do they evaluate applications before receiving casper scores? or is the application considered incomplete until then?

Pretty sure that they don't evaluate until everything is in, including CASPer.

did you guys get confirmation emails after submitting your secondary? I submitted it on 7/17 and never got a confirmation email

Can't speak for everyone, but I submitted 7/19 and got an email 7/21 saying all components of my application were complete/received

My CASPer came in after I submitted my secondary, so I received an "Update" email saying that all of my things were in. Not sure if they send this email if you already had everything in when you submit the secondary.
Did you take CASPer? Did you pay for the secondary? I submitted 7/31 and got a complete e-mail on 8/4.
Also check your spam.
Congrats! Did that come in this morning or earlier in the week ? LM ? ORM / URM ?

Sorry, I realized I excluded it the first time.
Submitted 7/31, Complete 8/4 (was waiting on CASPer at that point)
has anyone's status changed from completed to something else on the portal?
Im curious as well, i don’t even see a spot where it gives a status.
if u click on "apply online" on the upper right side once you log into the portal, it shows a brief status as completed
Will that change ?

Wow been on sdn for a few months and I’ve just now learned that. Appreciate the tip friend!
Did you end up taking it yet? I don’t see anything from Temple that specifies when we should complete VITA by.
I haven't gotten the chance to take it yet, but I plan to do so before my interview next Thursday.

I haven't heard anything. I completed the secondary the first week of August, but my CASPer score didn't get submitted until 8/26. Not sure when they will actually get to my application.
I mean, I was complete 7/16 and haven't heard back. I don't think they're going chronologically.

+1 the neuroticism is telling me it's a silent R, but common sense/logic says it's not chronological. Not sure who to believe... lol

believe the sense / logic 🙂
wait does this mean for people still in undergrad too?
Not sure. They didn't specify.
Last year a ton of July/August applicants got II's in winter and spring even after being skipped for fall II's. Unfortunately, it looks like Temple doesn't do pre-II R's until spring, so it's a long road here.

Ah I’m Tuesday so I’ll probably email them and let you know if there’s an email we didn’t get that we were supposed to!
Just checked mine and it says 8:15 too! I probably should've checked that haha! Thank you!! 🙂
