I have 9, some 10 essays to write. This secondary business is getting too overwhelming. 😴

Now everytime I see a post that ends with that emoticon I just assume it's Dr. E before reading it. I wonder if he puts that at the end of each answer on his secondaries. It would really add a unique, personal touch:

Q: What will you contribute to our school?
A: stop asking your stupid questions....i'll go to your school if I want to.... 😴
 
Has anyone heard from U. Tennessee or East Tennessee? I added them to my AMCAS yesterday morning, and got an email from UT saying they were in the process of screening. Anyone get past this point yet?
 
how long after you recieved the VCU email link to the status page did they decide if you're going to get a secondary?

I have cornell, dartmouth, and wake. I hate that I don't have time to work on them until the weekend.

And the British Open is on!

Haha, I haven't gotten the brutality in the mail quite yet. I'm hoping for today. We'll see, right?

I was verified on 6/23 and I think those of you that have it were verified before then... 😕

Anyway, good morning applicants. 🙂 I had a dream last night that they were sending out approval letters in fedex envelopes, aka:

"Dear Robizzle,

Your credentials are so amazing that we have decided to offer you admission to Hollywood Upstairs School of Medicine. That thing we said about needing an interview? Lies! Doesn't apply to YOU, my friend. That thing we said about regular notification being October 26? Well, there is nothing regular about YOU my friend.."

How funny would that be.

same here. i just got an email from UT - no secondary. nothing from ETSU
 
Just wondering, does anyone have Drexel or Penn State yet? Or are they not out yet?


PS. This whole Dr. Eugenic thing was kind of funny for a few posts but now it's just getting painfully annoying to read. It's obvious that he is just a troll, maybe not even in college yet. If we just stop responding to him he will probably go away, or at least lose his satisfaction 🙂

According to the "which secondaries are out forum," neither Drexel nor Penn State are out.

I agree.......about.......Dr. Eugenic....... 😴 😴 😴 😉

You are right, my good friend, you are right.
I have said all I had to say to him, that is, revealing his lies in front of everyone.

I have NOT received Drexel. They have a page up for login, but it says you need a password that was emailed to you. So it looks like they are getting set-up. I bet they'll send out invites next week. I bet they just get flooded. 😱

Did they change it this year? I always thought it was October 15th.

Couldn't agree more. Working on Loyola now. At least they give you a bit more space than Rush.

Quick question: Loyola says to answer the questions in 25 lines. Then they say to double space between paragraphs. Do you think they mean 25 lines total, or 25 lines of text?

I hate that I'm asking questions like that. I feel like my life is being reduced to character numbers and word counts!

Hope you are all hanging in there with secondaries.

their instructions say 25 lines single-spaced, so I did 25 lines of text.

I was really ticked off when I first saw the essays, but by the time I was done with them I decided they were a real advantage for us non-trad types. I wrote my "challenge" one on Baghdad and my "self-teaching" one on teaching myself fighter weapons when I was stationed in Germany.
 
I've got to edit UW and then there's Loyola to work on...not that I've gotten Loyola in the mail yet, but I think I'll start working on the essays anyways.

Thanks for the answer. I think being a non-trad has helped me a bit as well, just because I've done more- nothing as cool as teaching myself fighter weapons...

yup search away.....if you havent noticed no one cares....so ure really wasting your time....but then again u have time to waste since u have no life.....but for the last time this is not how you make friends......you can just ask me to be your friend..( most people learn this in the 1st grade)...im not sure i will say yes but you may still ask.... 😴

Not that I care at all, but mostly because I find this all kind of funny...but would you be offended if I pooped in your bed sheets?

I agree--you have at least more things to explain--what you've been doing since school, work experiences, volunteer experiences, etc... 🙂

But it makes it harder b/c of the word limits. So much to say in so little space.

Totally agree!! Rush was hell with what amounted to 12 lines of text for some very indepth questions.

BTW: Thanks for all the work you've put into this thread, Jackie- it has been nice to check and make sure I've been receiving all the secondaries. If there is such a thing as Karma...

jackie how's it feel to have created the most popular thread for the 2007 class (for now!)? soon it will be the official acceptance/rejection thread

You kids make me blush. 😳 Unfortunately, it has also brought some negativity--attacks by trolls, claims that I selfishly bump and promote the threads, and some general malaise....but whatever. I'm kind of a big deal. I can take it. 😉

But there is a (Big, growing!) group of you that I really, really care about and that I want to see through. 😍 Some of the new people that we thought were sketch are turning to be pretty cool, as well. I really appreciate how everyone has been helping me to maintain this thread and the others. It is like a security blanket for us, knowing what is out and what isn't. You guys are simply the best. I would be proud to call (most of you, anyway) my classmate. 👍

i haven't gotten an acknowledgement email from vanderbilt, should i contact them? my amcas was verified on 07/18/06
 
Sorry if this is a repeat question. I've been out of town and just came back to 3 secondary apps. Hooray!!! Wake Forest, Loyola, and UC Irvine. I can't log into the UC Irvine one though. When it comes up, there is some writing over the spot where I need to put in my AAMC ID. Anyone with similar probs? Is anything happening with it? Thx for the help.
 
Yep, like Anastasis said- I was verified 6/27 and I just got my email from vandy last Thursday. Anastasis, Vandy meant that we should hear back from them 4-6 weeks after we received their email, yes?
 
can someone confirm the UT Health Science Center email acknowledgement? I haven't received it yet and I've been verified for a month, I'm doubting its validity.

I don't think we have that one on the list...where are you getting this info?

Anyone else have trouble logging into UC Irvine?? What did you do to fix it?

Chuck Norris cries whenever someone refers to University of Texas as UT, no one abbreviates his republic's name.
 
Why is it that people fill up these threads with nonsense so that you can't even find the list that is adverstised at the top.

Want to have a conversation? Pick up the phone and take it out of these threads.

Chuck Norris nothing.

or you could contribute to the problem by making a post without the list, real smart :laugh:

Hey there,

Easy does it. As long as we have the list once on each page, I think that is plenty. 😀 Everybody chill. Chuck Norris=Awesome.

Cute avatar picture, by the way, is that the one you're using to apply? I was thinking about doing black and white, but stuck with color.

I added UT Friday morning, and got some sort of email telling me they had received my verified application, and were in the screening process.
 
For those of you that received acknowledgements from the University of Washington and UCSD, how long did it take to receive the e-mail after your AMCAS app had been verified? I'm curious b/c I was verified on 7/17, and I haven't received any e-mails from them!

I guess I'll shoot an email to Dean Strother asking if they got my AMCAS in June...
 
Sem,
Did you get Loyola yet? Thanks for confirming University of Tenn. Health Sciences Whatever it's called.

Hiiiiii Danjo. 😍
 
I see a lot of people are adding new schools... does anyone know if we need to notify our advisor of the schools we add if our LORs are already on VirutalEvals?
 
Anyone know when Drexel or Penn State will be out? Heads up for anyone lacking a committee letter: Penn State requires FOUR letters of recommendation instead of 3. I'm waiting on letter #4 right now, so in no hurry for that sec to come out I guess....
 
Please let there be no secondaries this week 🙂
I have over 10 i need to finish 🙁
