Hey everybody,
Anyone have any luck sending in a secondary around this time with low stats from past experience? I'm considering sending one more in, but I wanted to see the opinions of others with past experience in this? Thank you all so much for your time and insight. It is greatly appreciated!!!!! .....

You have nothing to lose besides a few bucks. Take a shot and see where it goes.

I think you have slightly more to lose than a few bucks. In the case where you'd have to reapply, you would be considered as a reapplicant at that specific school too and at this point, the potential for it paying off is very slim. I would only do it if you're in a category where your app is flagged for earlier review (URM, military, etc.) and if you're already competitive for that school otherwise.

Once someone has submitted an AMCAS to a school, you are considered applied, regardless of whether or not you submit a secondary

Oh right, my bad. I didn't read closely and assumed that OP didn't send his primary yet

Secondaries are often a tax on the hopelessly naive, if not pathologically optimistic.

I actually did not send my primary in yet but know what the secondary questions are?
