Im a "G" for reals kids, nothing yet

 

[justblaze]

Thanks for the responses folks

Anyone with a more recent verification date? Or do you think it's about 3 weeks from verification to receiving the letter?

Might not be as recent as you were hoping for but I was verified on 7/3 and I got mine on the 25th.

hey, two questions here:

rob, did BU give you any trouble for applying to so many schools? I'm meeting with someone today so we can figure out sending my LORs...but since you and I both applied to 20+ schools, I just wanted to see if they had anything to say about it.

also Jackie, I got an e-mail secondary from Northwestern but only for the MST program. I haven't heard anything from the MD program.

sup homegirl... the only reason i'm awake is cuz i gotta train a kid at 8 @ fit rec and daaaamn am i tired.. im just gonna stick him on the treadmill and go take a nap! jk 😀 .. BU didn't gimme any trouble, although when i talked to the Z-man a couple months ago he was shocked at 20+ schools.. but since VirtualEvals is online, all they do is check off all the schools to send em to so its no problemo. You shall receive no problem 👍

 

[AggieJohn]

BU is on there twice, once as not having sent them out yet and once as sending them out via email.

I haven't heard one peep from BU. Anyone?

Can the schools you apply to see all the other schools you're applying to if you use Virtual Evals? Or is this because BU makes you print your AMCAS and mail it in so they can see your schools? How is it that BU knows which schools you're applying to?

oh nonono, me and scentiment went to the same undergrad (BU), so we're takling about having our premed committee sound out our LOR to other schools

I got BU's secondary on the 27th, but I think it must be taking them awhile to get them all out because I'm pretty sure you're not the only one who's still waiting on them.

 

[OneDayDoc]

On the list of schools, is University of San Francisco UCSF? USF is a catholic school that I don't think has a med school.

Univ. of California - San Francisco. And it's one of the better med schools.

 

[OneDayDoc]

Yeah, I think I've heard of it.

I got Feinberg's secondary this morning! I'm a "K".

 

[Severus]

yargh... c'mon vanderbilt. Me 😍 you long time.

I guess I'll give them until the end of this week before I start getting antsy.

Sev, is that the trick? To just let schools know "Me LOVE you LONG time!"
I think I will order some special letterhead for myself that has my name all formal at the top and then "me love you long time" real little at the bottom. Heh.

Well, between that and the kneepads I plan on wearing to interviews, I think I'll be SET! 😎

Strong work. PM me and I'll tell you about the "2-minute" trick. You go!

EDIT: That way, you don't have to love them long time, if you know what I mean. 😱

Yeah, but if I want that scholarship, I think I better pull out all the stops. 😱

I abso-fing-lutely agree. Better go for the scholarship--hope that gag reflex isn't too strong. 😱

I got Feinberg's secondary this morning! I'm a "K".

nice! I'm not sure if I should be expecting a separate e-mail from the MD office. I'm working on the MSTP secondary though...it's a long one! 7 pages!

 

[dwigt]

Anyone want to read my UTSW essay? It's really short, and any input would be appreciated. Thanks

 

[beaverfetus]

Feinberg and NYU came this morning! woot. NYU seems like a screener if this statement on the front page is to be trusted:


" If you meet the selected criteria, you will be contacted by our office via email with instructions on completing our on-line secondary application."

feinberg doesn't appear to be a screener

I also just received NYU's secondary. It'd be nice if they're a screener, and you're right, that statement does make it sound as if they could be, but I haven't really heard one way or the other if they are.

This one's easy; looks like I'll be submitting it today for sure.

 

[JEV2007]

hey I was wondering if anyone has the University of MD or the UVA secondary they could send me. I am still waiting on AMCAS to verify my application and I wanted to start working on a few more secondaries while I wait. Thanks in advance

As I recall, there really aren't any essays. I totally submitted it the first day I got it.

to "easy" secondaries.

Check your PM. I looked over that one, and honestly, I'm not sure that I'm going to fill it out. *getting more and more lazy*

 

[Homer Simpson]

Got Northwestern's today. My last name is at the end of the alphabet.

It's due in 2 weeks! Same time as my UCSD secondary!

I'm really bored at work and apparently enjoy talking to myself on SDN.


We got motherf'in snakes on motherf'in SDN!

Edit: Made a picture!

 

[Matth52]

Hahahahaha, that is great. I saw a bunch of those on collegehumor, but an SDN never occured to me.

 

[jackieMD2007]

NICE WORK Severus. 🙂

 

[Anastasis]

Just got Northwestern's 2ndary - and I'm a W so getting towards the end of the alphabet apparently.

 

[narc]

Got U of Wisconsin today. My understanding when I talked to them is that they have just now started sending out screened applications to OOS people. They have sent apps to instate people for the past several weeks however.

 

[zach1201]

Holy crap, I passed screening at University of Washington and Wake Forest. Thought the sub 10 on VR and M on writing would hold me back at Wake.

 

[Severus]

NICE WORK Severus. 🙂

Why thank you. I do try. 😎

I swear your word 'ain't' looks like another word for vagina

 

[MiesVanDerMom]

i just added ALbany to my AMCAS. their sec is not out yet, right?

 

[DrVanNostran]

You are correct, should be a week or two 😀

 

[Looque]

I swear your word 'ain't' looks like another word for vagina

I wasn't really sure what that word was supposed to be

 

[yabbadabbadoo]

are you sure university of iowa is screened? i got the secondary app email soon after i was verified...

 

[mintendo]

I know they screen OOS. And they guarantee interviews for in states with a certain GPA + MCAT (can't remember the numbers, but they're low).

 

[cdngirl80]

I swear your word 'ain't' looks like another word for vagina

I actually thought that that was the word and was sitting here all confused cause I was like I don't get it - this sentence makes no sense.

 

[yabbadabbadoo]

awesome, i guess that's a good sign, since I'm OOS. woohoo! first screened secondary!!!!!

 

[narc]

These secondary fees are embarrassing me left and right.
I have never had my credit card declined sooo many times in one week because my balance has reached the limit while paying for these bull**** screening costs.

 

[Haemulon]

Come on Drexel, where art thou? 🙁

 

[Falco2525]

Hey guys...just wondering if anyone knew how tough the University of Minnesota's screening process is for secondary applications. ALso has anyone gotten the secondary yet...I was told I passed the screening and should recieve their secondary in the mail soon.

 

[Severus]

I swear your word 'ain't' looks like another word for vagina

Too true. But maybe I intended that all along. 😎

No, really, I just have a crappy hand and was popping in between paint and PubMed articles so that my boss wouldn't catch me.

true dat. I'm so pissed that my limit is only 1,000. I must talk to Capital One about this.
