Your primary has been sent then! Woo hoo!! 😀
Woo hoo Dancing bananas for me, yipee!
Yay Laura!!! I keep checking my email for secondaries. None yet, but hopefully soon! Mine's already been "processed" for two days...trying to be patient.
it will take a few days. i got processed on the 19 and the secondaries are starting to trickle in my inbox.
This is good to know otherwise I would start freaking out by------um, say, tomorrow, that nobody likes me enough to even give me a secondary. You might have just saved me from a nervous breakdown
I started getting them 3-4 days after I was mailed out by AACOMAS and having been getting them at about 1-2 schools per day since--except today. The school I would love to hear from --I haven't yet-of course!!!🙁
IP would definitely be a great fallback position!!!🙂
All you can do is as much as you can. I've lost my confidence many times, but I'm still very much in the running and am only a little upset now that I doubted things before. So, from experience, I'd say that losing your confidence is one of the worst things you can do--so don't! Look ahead and take things one step at a time! Push aside all the "what-ifs" as difficult that is, and focus.
Best of luck, everyone!
I totally agree! Thanks for the great encouragement.👍 Keep us updated on your progress. Wow, that's great you have been getting secondaries so soon. I'm getting antsy waiting for mine to come in. It still seems weird that I haven't received any and my primary was processed 11/25. Oh, well all I can do is wait...and pray.
The amazing thing is that my Pre-Med Advisor from my undergrad told me he just sent all the letters on VirtualEvals yesterday, so the schools will get the LORs before they even get my secondary! Hopefully that won't confuse them.
I've submitted the three secondaries that are there on the internet, LECOM B, LMU and PNU....These are also the only three schools I have heard from asking me to submit secondaries, I"m afraid I'll get rejected pre secondary from everywhere else and post secondary from those
i think you might get some interviews. you're pretty late though. NYCOM i haven't heard a peep from and i've been waiting for a secondary since sept. PCOM is really really slow. I'd broaden you clinical and the amount of DO schools though...
Yay just got my secondary from Western! woo hoo, four down, five to go
I did the exact same thing----it's the little things. Western's secondary is much more labor intensive than the other three, good thing this quarter is almost over so I can focus on doing all of these
Do you have an md apps Dancer? where else did you apply?
Yay,🙂 I finally finished all my secondaries. I'm just waiting on some friends to check through all my essays and I'll be sending them out to schools on Monday. Sending out to Ten schools so hopefully I'll get some interviews at some of them.
I know how you feel. Each day I don't get a secondary, I feel more insecure. I don't think I should worry too much about it though, until like two weeks go by and still nothing. I am a little worried about SOMA because their website said they send out secondaries automatically the next day...hmmmm...
I guess I'm just confused because my stats are average or slightly above for matriculants, so I wasn't planning on any pre-secondary rejections. This whole process is nerve-wracking which ultimately makes me start doubting everything.
Nice work! Ten secondaries at once...yeesh. When did you start getting the secondaries? How long did it take to get all ten?
I just heard from SOMA today, as well as KCOM and my AACOMAS has been out since 11/19. I heard from KCUMB yesterday. I must say I am impressed with them!👍
Two of my friend applied last year to LECOM-Bradenton, but not until end of December/January! They both interviewed, and were BOTH accepted! Of course they had to wait until about May to find out they were accepted, but they're there now and loving it!
As for secondaries, I was wondering if you get them from every school applied to? I have received a bunch and wonder if they really looked at my app? Not that its bad, but I was surprised at the quick response. Also, this is a business....Im sure the sec app costs are factored in and welcomed by the schools....just skeptical thats all. Anyone??
If you meet the minimum GPA and MCAT requirements for each school you will receive the secondary. That's for almost all schools anyway. They really start weeding out when deciding who gets an interview.
Thats what I was wondering. I have received numerous secondary apps, but I havent taken the MCAT yet. Im taking it Jan 26...any idea why I received these?? I dont want to waste my time or money.
DancerDoc, did you get your secondary yet? I just got mine today for SOMA. That means I've heard from all the schools I applied to except for Nova
You can just go on Lake Erie's website to complete the app's online.. you don't need to wait for them to contact you 🙂I'm actually working on secondaries as we speak lol. I have CCOM, PCOM, and PCOM-GA to do..luckily all of them are very very similar. NYIT sent me a notification that only interviewees will receive a secondary, and I'm still waiting to hear back from Lake-Eerie. Anyone else?
