What was your longest turnover time for a secondary?

That is, what's the longest amount of time from receiving a secondary to your sending it? Just curious, since SDNers seem to be on top of their stuff...

I had Case and USC sitting in my Inbox for two months and change, finally finished them this week. Wohoo!

1.5 months... and counting! 👍

Only 4 left though. 😕

2 months and counting....some people on sdn get theirs out in a matter of hours...that is just plain ridiculous if you ask me. The earliest i sent mine was a month after.

A little under two months for Columbia. And I just finished my last secondary essay...That is, unless UCSF decides to send me a secondary, which I hope they do!

I still haven't finished the Duke secondary that I was bitching on SDN about...a month ago.

I took 37 days to complete UVA, and 30 for UC Davis and U of Chicago. No interviews from those yet. I think it was OK for Davis, since they had a specified deadline that I did meet, but I worry that the others may have seen the delay as a sign of lack of interest.

Of course, that's absurd for Chicago given the amount of work their secondary entailed.

i guess i'll have to be "that guy" and say the longest i sat on a secondary was 3 days, and that was because it came on a friday and i was going out of town for the weekend. Otherwise, i've turned them all around pretty much same day...usually writing my essays at work between projects or on the train on the way to classes.

My longest will be about 2.5 months. I recvd. Georgetown in mid-July, but I can't afford to send it until 10/1 when I get paid. I'm not worried about it b/c the MSTP site said they wouldn't review apps until mid-October anyway. My shortest was 2 or 3 hours b/c I was siked to get a screened secondary and the fee was only $35 (UWash). I think I average 2-4wks turnaround.

BU.....

for some reason i assumed it already went in. i'm ignoring the fact that that application/essay even exists.

i should do it at some point.

I'm also at two months and counting. I think I have 7 that are still outstanding...
