Just wondering: what is the longest amount of time it took for you guys to receive a secondary after being verified/having your app sent out to schools? At what point should you forget about a school and move on?

If you are expecting a secondary from a non-screening school and haven't got one despite the fact that you are above the filter contact admissions. If they screen secondaries for other factors then don't contact them. I had that happen and it turns out that the secondary email was lost. One of my IIs was from that school.

What time would you say is appropriate to contact? A few weeks?

I have a school who screens who I am above the cutoffs for. Unless they automatically throw away applicants that have any and all IAs without review (trust me, mine is not worthwhile)...should I reach out to them?

Haha, I know the school you're talking about. I am in the same boat. I have no idea on that one because it seems like everyone with an IA didn't receive a secondary regardless of how inconsequential.
