Are there any specific MD/PhD programs that screen? Please list below, if any.
Thanks.
Thanks.
What do you mean by screen? Prob a newbie question...sorry.
[M]any secondary questions are either redundant or yield little further insight.
I think the following schools screen pre-secondary:
Iowa
UCSD
Washington
UCLA
Those MD programs all screen pre-secondary, so I'd assume that the MD/PhD programs have the same policy? Not sure...
Pre-secondary or post-secondary, schools have to screen one way or another or they'll never be done interviewing.
Post-secondary screens may give applicants a better chance to present themselves, but really, many secondary questions are either redundant or yield little further insight.
Some schools, like Buffalo, claim that they review every application, so I guess this is not necessary the case, especially for the top schools?
Since the questions are redundant, is it better to write something new or just stick to what's already on the primary?
I was thinking that all these essays are supposed to show different sides of me on paper other than numbers and speak more powerfully about why they should at least give me a chance, but it's frustrating to realize that some schools wouldn't even look at my complete application.
wisconsin mstp doesn't seem like it screens, since i got the secondary without my mcat scores yet.
Vandy and UCSF, among others, screen pre-secondary.
Does Harvard MD/PhD screen pre-secondary?
I know UCSD, Irvine, Davis, Alabama, U of Washington screen pre-secondary.
