Check your spam, they should have sent you one by now. If not, email the schoolIs anyone else still waiting to receive secondary invitation? My primary transmitted on June 23rd, but I didn't get an email from A&M.
Does anyone else's Casper results say delivered, but not indicated on the secondary portal?
is anyone's secondary portal not working? for some reason, my login credentials are not working:/
however, do Texas A&M send a secondary ONLY after being verified or right after submitting primary?Yes, they do not screen for secondaries.
It will happen after your primary has been transmitted (sent) to the schools. Submission >>verification>>transmission.however, do Texas A&M send a secondary ONLY after being verified or right after submitting primary?

Did you ever get an email for the secondary? I submitted my primary back in May & contacted the admissions via email several times. I never got anything still.Is anyone else still waiting to receive secondary invitation? My primary transmitted on June 23rd, but I didn't get an email from A&M.

Received a II today! I'm very confused. The information in the portal makes it seems like the interview is in person. I thought it was online? Can anyone help clarify for me?
Their website indicates that MD interviews will be virtual, but EnMed interviews will be in person.Received a II today! I'm very confused. The information in the portal makes it seems like the interview is in person. I thought it was online? Can anyone help clarify for me?

That was my suspicion. The original email they sent out, AAMC, and their website all say it's virtual. The portal is quite misleading. Thanks for the confirmation.Their website indicates that MD interviews will be virtual, but EnMed interviews will be in person.

I'm not sure about the discounted hotel price, but I want to say congrats!In-state II received from EnMed just now - grateful and excited!
Does anybody know the discounted hotel price they mention for the Intercontinental?
Thank you so much! I'm just happy to finally see that at least some adcom far, far away thinks that my journey is at least worth a conversation in person to discuss it.I'm not sure about the discounted hotel price, but I want to say congrats!
This summer's work and process of reflection to write these apps has been incredibly humbling tbh

also if you’re being interviewed by someone that’s involved in research then know some basics of what that person researches. Asking some basic questions about their research goes a long way.

i might be wrong, but it looks like Texas A&M is reviewing primarily by date of submission instead of stats like some other schools
II just now. Completed secondary on 5/25/22. URM, 512, 3.95, No research, IS, No ties, puts the cereal before the milk.

Milk before cereal. I like my cereal crunchy! But I submitted it on 7/28. Do I still have a chance? 😛
If they look past your cereal ritual, yes. If not, pack your sunscreen.Milk before cereal. I like my cereal crunchy! But I submitted it on 7/28. Do I still have a chance? 😛
