Sorry to hear that. When did you complete your secondary?

[superstar101]

super interesting that Stanford doesn't have a gap year prompt... are y'all dropping that info somewhere into another prompt?

I submitted my amcas to them today. i haven't received my secondary, do they screen?

They do not pre-screen! Once your app is verified, you will receive one (or they may send it while it is processing).

It could take days for them to send you a secondary after primary, so don't stress if you don't get it today. They send to every MD applicant

Thank you so much 😸!!

I'm not sure, I certainly wasn't expecting it this early. I'm also not entirely sure what would be considered mission fit for Stanford but community, as a broad concept, is discussed throughout my secondary. Even my lab research, I found a way to discuss it in a way that emphasized community.

What type of question is this?

 

[premedbarista]

for the "Do you have peer-reviewed publications resulting from scholarly endeavors?" question, does being 3rd author count? like i definitely was a part of it but it isn't really "my" publication lol

My assigned interview date from Stanford conflicts with an interview date I had already scheduled for another school. I emailed admissions asking to reschedule, and they refused. Like bruh, cmon.

Do I email the other school and try to get that interview rescheduled?

When did you hear back from them? I have a travel conflict but haven't heard back yet...Did you email or message through the applicant portal?

Adding onto this, how flexible is moving between MD and dual degrees? (e.g., MD/MBA, MD/JD, MD/etc.)

Current Stanford MD student here. This is pretty flexible, have plenty of classmates that have added on an MD/MBA or MD/PhD after matriculating (though I haven't yet heard of an MD/JD.) Basically, you'd apply to the second degree program during either MS1 or MS2 year and typically take time off between MS2 and MS3 years to complete the second degree.

Have you received the secondary yet? I was verified around the same date and have not received it.

yes! i received mine the day after. since it has been about 10 days now, maybe it's worth it to reach out to them tbh?

 

[Punkchique]

Has anyone been able to reschedule interview date?
