I am applying this year and am taking the day in sept 2nd, I have my application complete and is being sent to the schools as we speak. I have not done any secondarys so i was wondering if anyone explain to me how long they are and how long on average it takes to complete. I applied to 18 schools????

Some schools just require fees while others require multiple essays and questions.

It can take you a week to finish for just one school.

The length of the secondaries depend on the school.

Most are two or three pages long...some front and back.

Most schools will have an electronic secondary which you have to fill out online and then electronically submit it.

Depending on how fast you write...it can take as short as ten minutes to anywhere from three hours (if you put foward a good effort in answering the questions).

The time it take depends on how fast/slow you are.

They're usually pretty interesting to read and answer though...so you definitely will not be bored.

Good luck.
