for mailing back secondaries, do you use standard mail, priority (2-3 day), or next day mail? I dont mind paying extra, but I think it might look kind of tacky airmailing your secondary?

opinions?

Standard Mail.... Why rush to get it there when it will just sit in someone's office for a few months?

I also use the 9x12 envelope! Does anyone handwrite the address?

agreed... it will take weeks before someone looks at it

I'll be happy to do it if you pay for my plane fare, hotels, and time ($75/hr).

i always hand write the address. i have good handwritting, it is legible. plus, i am bad with computers and would rather just write then adjust printer setting for sticky things or envelopes. i am sure they just tear it open and throw it away anyway.

Here's a thread with many detailed descriptions of SDNers' mailing practices. Beware: it's very dorky.

I have mailing labels so I print them off... mainly b/c my handwriting is really crappy.

those in charge of opening the secondaries are not the same people who review your profile for admission

um . . . i put a stamp on a regular envelope (maybe 2 if its heavy). Nothing's gotten lost yet, and it has all gotten there within a week. You guys are crazy.

ok, maybe not that crappy, but for the neurotic premed that feels like he's being judged for the slightest imperfection... crappy won't do.
