Congratulations! I just submitted my secondary a couple of minutes ago. Hoping for a II! Let me know how your interview is.

 

[DrPatriot]

Are you guys getting II's applying regular or early decision?

Regular

 

[mathnerd88]

Regular

Congrats!

 

[DrPatriot]

Congrats!

Thanks! It took one day for them to review it so hopefully you'll get good news tomorrow!

 

[grey_wind]

anyone know what their admissions office email is? thanks 🙂

 

[Gandyy]

Seriously aacomas is being outperformed by 3 overworked Texans in a tiny shack without air conditioning. But yes I got a secondary email but my Mcat scores haven't been received.

lollll

 

[Whats up Doc!]

Submitted my secondary earlier!!! Just nervous if I get an early interview but better than no interview I guess?!?!?!

 

[mathnerd88]

Just got a II. Submitted the secondary this morning. Scheduled for 7/17 at 8:00AM...

Only 8 days notice...

 

[Stephanopolous]

How do you figure?

Because the early applicants (like myself) had issues attaching the MCAT and more issues which I won't even get into right now. It seems like it was better to apply a tad later as the schools are having to go back and re-download the early apps to see official scores.

I applied super early and haven't had any issues yet (knock on wood)

congrats lol

 

[orapplicant]

How do you know if you got an II? I've been getting texts for 3 days that my app is "in review", and today I got an email that it's "been processed" and to check the portal. Will an II come via email or posted in the portal?

Both. If you check your application status , under "interview" it well say congratulations etc. Later, you'll get an email.

 

[mathnerd88]

First, I got a notification through text message... Then I got an email three minutes later. It was a surprise to see it as a text. I was at lunch when I got the invite.

Did you get a text or email that said "processed"?

 

[mathnerd88]

Did you get a text or email that said "processed"?

So I got a text saying thank you for submitting your secondary app about 4 hours after I submitted it, then one hour later, got two texts at the same time. One says LECOM Erie is reviewing your application and then a second one almost immediately "congratulations on your interview offer."

 

[mathnerd88]

MI

Nice! I hear it is very beautiful there. I put my permanent residence in NJ at my parents' address, but I am actually from Boston.

I wanted that IS status for RowanSOM lol...

 

[grey_wind]

has anyone else heard absolutely nothing? My primary has been verified since mid-June and I never got an email confirming they got it

 

[hopefulERdoc251]

yep haven't heard jack and it's bothering the hell out of me.

 

[mathnerd88]

Congrats! See you in Erie lol!

I bet you can probably guess who I am by my username once you see me...lol

 

[DrPatriot]

I bet you can probably guess who I am by my username once you see me...lol

Will it be that obvious lol?! You'll probably be able to guess who I am also by my username. Just picked out my interview outfit today...

You, sir, win the internets. If I get accepted, I'll give you my spot if and only if you wear that to the interview. 😉

Deal! They said to showcase my personality in the interviews so this should be accepted.

 

[lyana]

Nothing here, was verified since beginning of June 🙁

Not even a primary received email?

 

[lyana]

Not even a primary received email?

literally nothing. should I call them?

 

[mathnerd88]

literally nothing. should I call them?

Were your MCAT scores verified too?

 

[lyana]

Were your MCAT scores verified too?

I assume so, on my primary applications, it does say Official MCAT scores.

 

[mathnerd88]

I assume so, on my primary applications, it does say Official MCAT scores.

I would give a call and ask if they have received your application. Say something along the lines of some of your schools weren't able to download your application because of issues but I was wondering if you are able to see my application.

That way, it doesn't make you sound like a neurotic premed.

 

[Hizaki]

[hopefulERdoc251]

I've gotten one from every school I've applied to even MD's lol

 

[mathnerd88]

Anyone book hotels yet? Are they still only $50 a night at Days Inn?

 

[DrPatriot]

Anyone book hotels yet? Are they still only $50 a night at Days Inn?

I booked one of the more expensive ones. They are closer to LECOM and look like they might have a little nicer rooms. I did get the discount they mentioned in the email though.

 

[DrPatriot]

it was like $89

 

[mathnerd88]

I used priceline and got Quality Inn and Suites for $60. It was a 10 minute drive from LECOM.

You're flying in right?

 

[JAYPizzle]

Yeah I haven't received anything yet either. My AACOMAS application was verified on 06/09. I have been having issues with several school for applying early. This is frustrating.

Driving. It's only 4hrs

 

[mathnerd88]

Oh nice, driving from Boston would take over 8 hours. I decided to fly to Cleveland and then rent a car. Flight was less than $90 round trip.

 

[oceanman]

@mathnerd88 @DrPatriot Did you guys already get IIs?

 

[DrPatriot]

@mathnerd88 @DrPatriot Did you guys already get IIs?

Yes

 

[mathnerd88]

@mathnerd88 @DrPatriot Did you guys already get IIs?

Yep

 

[DrPatriot]

Does anyone know where to look on the portal to verify they received our LOR's?

 

[grey_wind]

Called today to find out why I haven't heard anything-

They said there's been some problems and not everything's downloaded yet and not to worry

 

[mathnerd88]

I think you go to the admissions tab, and there is a link for required letters and credits and you can see it from "View folder Items."

Haven't heard anything either. Primary verified early June.

That's correct. I'm short 3 credits. Looks like I need to take sociology if accepted.

Thanks. I'm all good!
