Self explanatory question. I'm getting confused when people say "getting secondaries" but then they also say check amcas for secondaries.

Be sure to check spam folders. I had one that was sitting there for a week before I caught it.

Does anyone know around when schools begin sending secondaries? It seems that all of the ones I have applied to (mostly in NC and FL) do not even screen the primary (unless it is severely out of their GPA/MCAT range), and they will send secondaries once your AMCAS gets verified.

Mine was verified around 6/15 so I'm just wondering if anyone knows a general timeline of when I should expect emails for secondaries 🙂 I'm thinking early July hopefully?

MDs dont even receive our primary app until tomorrow I believe, so any time after that.

DOs got our primaries a couple weeks ago, so they have been shipping them out

Oh tomorrow? I'll have my fingers crossed for this coming week 🙂 thanks for the help.

Some MDs send secondaries even before they get the primaries. So, it's possible to get secondaries now but don't expect them to flood in until July.
 
Do they start sending secondaries today (assuming we are verified) or will it be next week?
