like the other pster said.

some schools give secondaries to everyone without screening. other schools screen...usually by looking at numbers and maybe glancing at your amcas. then all schools review only those apps who turned secondaries in. from that pool they grant interviews. and from the interviewed pool, they accept or reject.

Some schools use this to swell their coffers?. they send secondaries to everyone just for the cash then throw out the subpar applicants.

You know this is true when you receive your rejection letter just 3 days after your check has cleared.

...or so I've been told.....
