Hi all,

I submitted my application a few weeks ago and have received 5 secondaries (16 schools altogether). My application isn't verified yet, however. I know I should be finishing up those 5, but I've been told not to send them back until I'm verified. Is there anything else I should be doing in the meanwhile?

Hope everyone is doing well and have a good week!

Assume you are going to get all the other secondaries. Go to the other 9 school's SDN threads in the school-specific discussion area. Look for the essay topics. Write the essays so you are ready to go when the secondaries come in.
 
I took the opportunity to work on weak EC areas of my app. I had a ton of volunteering through athletics at school but was spread thin on clinical hours because of that. By the time I had interviews, I was able to talk at length about how I broadened my clinical exposure. I think that it was beneficial. Do something proactive if you have the time and desire.
