Doesnt UCSF send secondaries to the same percent of applicants WashU interviews lol this is a win imo

Haha regardless of the screening it was just so unexpected to get it on a random Friday evening 🤣 I was just vibing with twisted teas and my Netflix show when I got the notification LOL

 

[toastedbutter]

What toasted butter says, I believe! Any idea when they’ll start with II

I think they said they start in October so maybe the IIs will roll out in a couple weeks?

 

[hope75]

Received secondary invitation this evening. Amcas verified 7/24.

 

[primerfish]

I think they said they start in October so maybe the IIs will roll out in a couple weeks?

That fits with the last year’s timeline based on Cycle Track

 

[omskie]

this mightve been answered already but anyone know what the primary --> secondary --> interview --> acceptance numbers are?

 

[hope75]

I saw from this link.

thanks! just curious how thorough primary to secondary movement is

UCSF said Note: Since an invitation to complete a secondary is not automatic, you may not hear from the SOM for 8-12 weeks after they receive your verified application.

As in Institutional Action? I had a minor alcohol dorm violation from my freshman year and got a 2ndary on 07/26

Yup, just confirming that that isn't what is holding me back from getting a secondary /:

 

[Glucose9]

Haha just wondering, is anyone else's headshot preview on the secondary portal extremely fuzzy?? My file size is way below 4MB, not sure what is happening.

Mine didn’t even show up cause there was something up with their portal lol

 

[thefirerisen]

Just want to confirm my math for people who've already received secondaries.

If I was verified mid-August, should I expect a potential secondary by end of September?

What math are you trying to use? It takes up to 3-10 weeks to receive it, just forget about it until and unless it happens.

 

[thatmeticulouschick]

MSTP secondary received! verified 7/25

 

[sparky21]

secondary received! verified in early June but didn’t add ucsf until early august

 

[randyrandy]

secondary received! IS, added ucsf july 28th. last one and so excited to be done!! 🙂

 

[Rrrr666]

Will secondaries be sent out this late for those verified 7/10? Should I reach out?

 

[Holland]

OOS secondary received. Verified 7/28

 

[FutureDrCoochies]

to everyone worrying about getting secondaries. it has been reported that people have been receiving secondaries all the way until december

 

[IDK3912]

OOS MSTP Secondary received. Verified 7/25

 

[BenzeneToluene]

OOS secondary received. Verified 7/31.

 

[deleted1087189]

secondary received! verified in early June but didn’t add ucsf until early august

i was verified 9/6, so does this mean i'll be getting a secondary late as f***

 

[sparky21]

Sorry if this has been asked already! But can anyone provide any insight on how many people get secondaries from total applicants and then how many get interviewed?

 

[AspiringDoctorTKD]

Rumor has it that it's around 40% of applicants

 

[deleted1124957]

Do you guys know of anyone who hasn't received a secondary (that should have, depending on when they were verified)? I personally don't know anyone who hasn't received a secondary and so the screen seems like a big myth to me

This This This

I guess this is more of a late cycle question though

 

[brazzimamma]

I’ve heard from last cycle that they’re slow to send out secondaries, with one friend getting their secondary after they already had an acceptance to another MD

 

[billybob321]

I was verified in early July, I don't think I'm going to get a secondary...

 

[BagChaser85]

Yeah, so that seems to imply they do screen somewhat but I somehow doubt its as drastic as 40%. Everyone I know who was verified before or around my time has received a secondary

Apparently from sdn a few years ago it was like 7500 primaries-> 2500 secondaries -> 500 IIs

Everything is allegedly so take it with a grain of nacl

 

[lesbianherbs]

OOS Secondary, primary verified 8/3! LM 81.4

I don't have a secondary, im IS, within their stat levels and seem to fit their mission well. The only thing I have is a very minor IA from many years ago.

 

[HappyRabbit]

Does anyone know what percentage of applicants actually receive a secondary? I read some threads saying only around 25% of students got one (~2500 applications) of which 500 received interviews. However, others are saying that a UCSF secondary is very common and a majority of students receive one.

 

[Ajtbs06]

MSAR states that interview invitations were sent out beginning on 9/1/23, kind of surprised no one on SDN has gotten one yet lol

Last year the first invite recorded on cycle track and sdn was sent out on Sept 15th, so could be coming soon!

Maybe they have a spidey sense for neuroticism and skipped all of us

No way they skip @moonshapedpooll

sorry guys the UCSF dean has actually already personally shown up to my door with an II

 

[Labe]

I think MSAR states the first possible date they can be sent out but most schools don't actually send them out on that stated date.

 

[bobui64]

Does applying to PRIME and JMP mean you won't be considered for regular MD?

 

[habibijones]

IS secondary received verified 8/5.

 

[BagChaser85]

A lot of what interests me in medicine relates to underserved communities and patient care. I want to apply for the SJV program but have 0 ties to the area, or well California all together but I am from a medically underserved area else where and am disadvantaged. Does it make any sense to apply for the sjv program considering I’m not from the area? Pretty dumb question and I’m sure ik the answer to it, but just wanted someone else’s thoughts.

 

[BagChaser85]

Your guess is as good as mine, but I'll put in my 2 cents! It would make sense to me that they would have a preference for CA residents who are from the underserved areas in California. That being said, I think if you can tie similariites between your area and medically underserved areas that UCSF students would have a chance to serve, and state that as your reason for wanting to attend UCSF, I can see this as being a compelling answer

Thanks! I just looked on their website and everyone in the program was from the SJV area or at least in California so maybe it’s not worth it. I’m gonna think about it a little more before applying, but maybe MD only might be the play.
