Hi,
I got a letter yesterday from UF advising me not to bother to do the secondary. Does anyone know what proportion of applicants they ask to complete the secondary? I was surprised (and very sad and distressed) to recieve a rejection already. I didn't know they prescreened. Perhaps they have a strict cutoff for grades? My grades are quite a bit lower than their average but my MCAT is two points higher. I may try calling them today. If anyone knows anything about what criteria they use to screen or how many people they screen out, let me know. If I didn't even get past this step at a state school, maybe I would be wasting my time and money applying to my other 14 schools.
