Many of the UC schools pre-screen before sending secondaries

Weird. I’m OOS and didn’t have an MCAT… why do you think they sent me one?

Overall is just below 3.7. I have a couple of graduate degrees and I’m a veteran…. Have like 2k’ish hours in rural primary care, about 10k hours between research and teaching.

I got my app verified yesterday. They said the recieved my app yesterday and no secondary. Ik some people who got secondaries within an 1 hr of the primary recieved email

 

[FiatLux123]

App verified 8/1, acknowledgment email received 8/3. Secondary was sent to me today midday. I'm local to the school.

 

[drewmighty]

I have almost no research, is it worth applying here? I know they are a heavy research school but I got a secondary so I am wondering if that means it is worth it.

 

[DPTtoMD23]

Submitted today. FYI for any prospective applicants, the email states it could take 1 week to 3-4 months to review applicants in the queue. There are three explicit outcomes which are,
1. Interview
2. On hold for an interview
3. Not invited to interview notified by email anytime in the cycle

 

[natarenu]

UCSD has a deadline to submit 1 month from the secondary received date. Received secondary on 6/27/22, but submitted only on 7/27/22. Little worried if the submission was little late. Should be OK?

If you applied to them in your primary there is no reason not to unless you are missing a required prereq.
