I was wondering what is the usual time period between mailing of the primary application by AACOMAS and when you get secondaries from the schools?

Sorry to be annoying, I searched for it on the forum but i couldn't find it.

hi. It took me about 3 days to receive an email from DMU with link to their secondary. Then they slowly started coming in. I think the next one I got was Chicago, then paper ones started coming. I think within 3 weeks I had received every one. The last to come were PCOM, PCOM-Atlanta, and PCSOM. I was surpsied at PCOM since i'm in NY and kind close, but anyway yah, it took about 2.5-3 weeks. If you need the questions let me know. I have them written out since I sent it to some others who asked. I'm glad your app was finally sent to schools! you have been waiting a while right?
:luck:

sure. any other schools? i sent my AACOMAS to 12, even though i didn't do secondaries for all of them, I have them. meanwhile, i sent u the ones u asked for.
 
Some schools have their secondaries available online. Go to the schools we site and look around. You might be able to get a jump start on the secondary.
