Just got this email:

Dear Applicants,

You were just sent an e-mail from us which was supposed to be a secondary application. We are having technical difficulty and the on line secondary application will be coming soon.

Sorry for the inconvenience.

Office of Student Admissions

Irene B. Tise


The email i got before this one was completely blank. Well, at least we know they're sending them out now.

Hey I got that too deez, it was really great. I thought to myself, "self do you really want to go to a school that can't even figure e-mail out?" Didn't take me long to get over it and realize if that is all I have to put up with, I will take it.

Congratulations to those who got the Wake Forest secondary.
I just received one as well and I was wondering if there was any word limit for the essay questions???
Also, I have been out of school for a year (graduated in 2002) and I'm not sure how to fill in the evaluation information. I was going to include part B (science and non sciece faculty) but then, I would like one from my employer as well.
Does it mean if I fill part C, I get a recommendation fom my PI (employer) and none from my prof from college?
Seems to me I'll have to sacrifice one of my LOR!!!
HOw r u guys going about this?
Thanks

Thanks Koma,
U mean one from my PI, one from my non science prof and just tell the science prof to send in another one anyways?

hmmm, I'm not sure what the word limit is on the essays. I'm also curious if anyone is filling out the "additional comments" essay section.

And do you really think they'll care if they get more than 3 LOR's? Maybe I should call the office and check...

Ok, just got off the phone with a very nice lady from the admissions office. She said that the first two essays (about activities that impacted you) should be "short and sweet." The personal comments section can truly be anything of your choosing. About half the people leave it blank and it doesn't negatively affect the application. Lastly, she said you can send as many LOR's as you want, but you have to at least have the ones you listed on your application.

Thanks deez4life.
Did any of you get and start work on the harvard application? Would u happen to know the word limit for question 4?
"If you have already graduated, briefly summarize your activities since graduation."
thanks again!

deez you are the best, thanks for doing all the work for the rest of us (time and time again). I'll have to make sure that I give you credit someday.

 

[deez4life]

No problemo guys. Just doing my job so we'll all hopefully be doctors someday.

Hey Deez, what happened to that old avatar you used to have, I sure liked that one. Is there any background for them?

 

[deez4life]

Thanks mann, I'm keepin' it gangsta with Tony Montana. The old avatar was also him, but just from the end shootout scene of the movie. I'm sure you can find a variety of Scarface pics out on the web somewhere for your viewing pleasure.
