How many secondaries have you completed?

[aznb0y129]

Hey, I'm sure many of you are toiling away on these wicked secondaries and I saw a similar thread that's been dead for a year, so I thought I'd revive the topic.

1) How many schools did you apply to on your primary application?

2) How many secondary applications have you received?

3) How many secondary applications have you completed?

4) How many secondary applications do you intend to complete?

I'll start.

1) 25
2) 23 (missing Howard and Loyola)
3) 7
4) 20

Wow, looks like I'm a little behind the 8-ball here , but in my defense, I only started last week since I took the 8/7 MCAT.

[funkydrmonkey]

67... umm I actually did not know I applied to this many... I kind of lost count...

2) How many secondary applications have you received?

56

3) How many secondary applications have you completed?

4) How many secondary applications do you intend to complete?

2) 11 (no Emory yet)
3) 7

Holy crap. Isn't that like more than half the US MD schools?!


1) How many schools did you apply to on your primary application?
18
2) How many secondary applications have you received?
17 (No news from Mayo yet)
3) How many secondary applications have you completed?
14
4) How many secondary applications do you intend to complete?
16 (Don't really intend on going to two from my list)

I'm losing steam on the last two; especially because... well, they're the last two remaining apps for a reason

[serikk85]

1. 19
2. 16 (Mayo doesn't have one, Emory is tardy, and UCSF is going to reject me)
3. 15. (I hate Duke)
4. 17 (Unless UCSF by some miracle doesn't reject me, then I'll do 18)

 

[AtheGre]

1.) 25 (AMCAS: 19; TMDSAS: 4)
2.) 19 (AMCAS: UWashington and UCSF; Out of state, have lost all hope. TMDSAS: 3/4 schools do not not require secondaries. Finished the one that does.)
3.) 17
4.)19 If I here something from UW and UCSF. Doubt it, though. It's not like they're short of applicants.

1 screened rejection, 2 probably won't get done (strong instate preference)
Hopefully 33 if all the other schools don't screen me out.

[aznb0y129]

Time to revive this thread. I finished my final secondary (Stony Brook) this afternoon. Whoohoo! Now my angst gets to build until September 9th when they release the MCAT scores =/

 

[medstar21]

1) 14
2) 13 (still waiting for Wake forest to review my 2nd MCAT... anyday now..)
3) 8 (Wayne, UofM, MSU, UIC, University of Toledo, Dartmouth, Hopkins, SUNY buffalo, my 3 top choices are done anyways...)
4) 12 (NOT doing arkansas, my dad made me apply there, but i wont get in so its a waste, and Kentucky has a rediculous OOS essay that I just dont feel like doing for a school that I probably won't be accepted at anyways)

planning on finishing Rush, Loyola and Rosalind Franklin this weekend to be submitted. And assuming Wake Forest sends one that will be out as soon as its in, questions are already done.

cannot wait until secondaries are over...

Bring on the interviews please...

This thread is oh-so-motivational. BACK TO THE ESSAY MILL!

 

[Kaydubz]

Glad to be reminded that I've completed 1 secondary since I made this post two weeks ago. Still staring at you Duke.

 

[disorder]

1) How many schools did you apply to on your primary application?
53
2) How many secondary applications have you received?
48 (won't get 3, rejected pre-sec)
3) How many secondary applications have you completed?
45 (won't finish duke)
4) How many secondary applications do you intend to complete?
49 so, basically ALL of them except the ones i get rejected pre-sec and duke.

 

[aznb0y129]

I only did 20 and I felt like they took forever, so I can't even imagine what it's like for you guys who are doing 30+. It must be costing you a fortune as well =/
