I applied and was verified by AMCAS May 29th, and my app was transmitted to schools June 27th, and I have not received any secondary essays from any of the 28 schools I applied to. I have 4.0 GPA, 525 MCAT, just wondering if I messed up something along the line, or if this is normal due to high application volume. Is anyone else in the same situation?

I have no experience as an applicant but my first thought is that you need to check your JUNK file or other places that responses from schools may have landed. Also check to see that your email address is correct on your AMCAS application.
 
Something is definitely wrong. Mine was transmitted on the 27th and I've received 30/32 secondaries. Call AAMC for sure.
