I still don't understand why you were getting "screened out" at schools that don't screen in the first place. , like Northwestern or Pritzker. Did you have a problem with your email? Did you go out of the country? Botch secondary deadlines? Couldn't fill LOR requirement?
You should post your school list and let us know where you got secondaries. Where are you-in state, by the way?
State of residency is Michigan. All the secondaries I recieved I sent back.
Here is a list and if I recieved a secondary or not. I guess I was wrong about Northwestern and Pritzker. I forgot I actually received secondaries from them. I guess I did get more secondaries than I originally remembered. Sorry about that.
Indiana University School of Medicine - Rejected pre-secondary
Medical College of Ohio - Did not recieve a secondary
Michigan State University - Rejected pre-secondary
Northwestern University Feinberg School of Medicine - Received secondary. Rejected without interview
The Ohio State Univ. Coll. of Med. & Pub. Hlth. - Received secondary. Interviewed - Waitlisted
University of Chicago - Pritzker - Received secondary. Rejected.
University of Cincinnati College of Medicine - Received secondary. Rejected.
University of Illinois at Chicago-College of Medic - Received secondary, interviewed - Waitlisted.
University of Iowa, Carver College of Medicine - Received secondary. Rejected
University of Michigan Medical School - Received secondary. Rejected.
University of Minnesota Medical School-Minneapolis - Received secondary (two of my recommender's blew the deadline
)
University of North Carolina School of Medicine - Rejected pre-secondary.
University of Wisconsin - Rejected pre-secondary.
Wayne State University School of Medicine - Received secondary. Interviewed - waitlisted.
Ok so I guess I forgot that I got more secondaries. But it looks like I need to write better secondary essays
.Most of the secondaries I sent back within a week. I think I am going to reapply to the schools that sent me secondaries. But back to the point. What other schools should I apply to?
Again thanks for all the help. I really appreciate it.
