Creighton, Wake Forest, Dartmouth and Michigan are "Medium" with two or three short essays.

Mayo has no secondary. They either send you a rejection or invite you to do a recorded telephone interview.

 

[UCLAstudent]

MCW is easy (no essay).

 

[Damnit Jim!]

Northwestern was kind of a pain just because you only have about a week to do them. Emory not too bad because of the word limits -like 100 or something.

 

[Uegis]

Pritzker is tough. Three long essays.

Loyola is long too, i didn't finish it because of the strict due date

NWU one week deadline, three essays - basically wants you to flatter their program

Michigan - one essay, 250 words. pretty easy.

Georgetown- Medium - One page on why you want to go there and how the school will prepare you to be a physician

 

[uclabruin2003]

Uniformed Services University of the Health Sciences asked why you want to go there...so you better talk about the military and your interest in military medicine. THere is a time limit of 3 weeks. they also want a clinical letter. just getting the clinical letter was a pain for me....so i rated that as medium-hard.
