just stay patient. Davis screens heavily and if you have zero ties to the area you likely won't receive one. but if you do, people have received secondaries as late as october/november in the past years. I'm a davis alum who hasn't gotten one yet (and I have friends in the same boat). someone here went to an info session where they said they have so many committees reviewing primaries that they're not necessarily going in chronological order, and to not worry if you havent received one yet. for me personally I'm gonna wait till late october to start getting sad LOL. this is the only secondary out of 44 schools I havent received yet

Do y'all think they would send a secondary invitation before receiving the PREview exam score?
They did for me!

Submitted July 1st but just got a secondary invite. I'm a California resident but no ties to NorCal. Is it even worth submitting at this point? I already assumed I got screened out a long time ago.
Submit it! It shouldn't take long.
It's a short secondary, def submit

Submitted my primary on 6/7/2024. Just received my secondary on 9/29/24. Is it worth even filling out or are they just going to take my money?
fill it out!
For the "Activities" portion of the secondary, did y'all just copy and paste what you wrote for the primary app?

I would recommend highlighting a different aspect of the activities you're going to list, that is if mentioned on the AMCAS primary app -- all the best!
No. Highlighted key activities in NorCal related to their mission. Non clinical volunteering, clinical job, and leadership position.
Thanks, @ClashRoyaleKing and @MaverickCowboy! Wishing y'all the best!

+1 IS SoCal secondary today (primary verified: 6/21) 🙂
youre giving me hope 😢
do they send II's based on preview scores? I got a 2/9

I believe they do a holistic review so no one particular thing will make or break you. Just like a high MCAT score can counteract a low GPA, I think a below average preview score can be counteracted by your writing and the different experiences you describe. The adcoms want to get to know you and will use every single metric but rest assured that a number you earned after sitting for a 75 minute exam won't make them stop assessing your fit to the school. Hang in there!

say I don’t have many activities in NorCal, but I started new volunteering with the underserved elsewhere since submitting my primary. Is it smart to put this as one of the three activities?
Definetely!
Just submitted my secondary app, y'all! Anyone else applying to Rural-PRIME?

Early interviewers, is next week our week? Trying to find the admission’s members # so I can save it and not miss the call.
The soonest A I see on cycle track for Davis is 11/2. I hope next Tuesday though
Probably underreported on there. I really hope next week so I can let my family know 😭
IS SoCal secondary received! Primary processed 7/11.

Thanks for the reply! In addition to the 7 MMI and 2 rest stations, there's still 3 more?
6 scenario, 1 meet the dean, 3 traditional i think. Check the email and videos they sent, they explain it pretty well.
