all the UCs screen before sending out secondaries.

As far as I know, USC is the only CA school that DOESN'T screen.

Maybe USC changed their procedures, but this was the first year I got a secondary in three tries.

Interesting Andrew. Maybe with all the AMCAS crap this year, USC just wanted to get their show on the road.

What about Loma Linda? I know they're heavily into the whole 7th Day Adventist thing, but I was always under the impression that they didn't screen like the UC's do. Don't know though... I never applied there. Anyone know?

I don't know either if Loma Linda screens, but I don't think they need to screen because the secondary itself does the job. A letter from a minister??? Aside from requesting a letter of rec. from a minister, I hear the secondary itself is difficult to complete if you are not very religious and especially if you're not 7th day adventist, given the type of questions.

They don't hind the fact that they recruit and give preference to 7th day adventists. My good friend's friend got into Loma Linda with a 23MCAT, of course he was a devote 7th Day Adventist.
