Secondaries with no essays?

Can anyone post schools without essays in the secondary applications? Not saying I'm lazy, it would just be nice to know if one or two of the 20 schools I apply to won't require one (or two or three or four) essay (s).

Just check out the official 2008 secondary thread. It will link to many of the secondaries and you can find out for yourself if the ones you are interested in are labor intensive or not.

UCSF and University of Pennsylvania.
The last post said Harvard, but they do have an essay if you have already graduated.

MUSC

However, for both institutions 95%+ of each class are South Carolina residents.

WORST:
U of Connecticut (six essays, max. 3 pages single-spaced)
Maryland (3-5 essays, I think)
Minnesota - Twin Cities (6 essays, I believe, all short, but topics are major, which makes the size limit a major pain)
