Hello all. So my AMCAS application was finally verified yesterday, and this morning I woke up with two secondary application requests in my email: NYU and Pittsburg.
Now, from what I have heard both of these schools send secondaries to everyone, so I shouldn't feel too great about that. My MCAT was a measly 27 (9/9/9) though having come from a philosophy degree I didn't feel terrible about that. My sGPA is a 3.87, and my overall is 3.67. Given these stats, I have applied to many D.O. schools as well, but my application is still being processed through AACOMAS.
My question to everyone is this: is it worth filling out these two secondaries (and paying for them) to NYU and Pitt, given my stats? I graduated in 2012 with a B.A. in philosophy, then did post-bacc 2 years. Not sure if that makes me more unique or not, but I need some advice here.
Thanks a bunch. And best of luck to everyone in the process of applying. I hope you get in to your top school!
