Hello everyone,
For those people who received alot of secondaries, can you guys make a list of schools that sent you your secondaries BEFORE your AMCAS applications got certified or before they received your AMCAS application.

THANK YOU
 
I thought that schools don't look at your application until you have it verified?
 
I didn't hear from a single school before I was verified, so I assume they didn't know I was applying until I was verified.

Well the reason i'm asking is because i just send in my AMCAS application yesterday and it's not verified but i received my secondary application from George Washington University. So i just assumed that other schools must've been doing the same thing.
 
I have yet to be verified, but I have already received secondaries from GW and Dartmouth. I also received an email from Iowa telling me that they knew I was going to apply there and just to tell me that they screen before sending out secondaries.

hmm, I guess they find out as soon as you submit your application and pay your money then?

Maybe my case was just coincidental timing.
 
University of Chicago and Columbia also sent me the secondary
 
i got one from gwu, uconn and meharry.
 
I got BU. I also found that you can access Tulane, Hopkins, and baylor without the school sending you an email
 
So my question is...what if you applied to some of those schools and have yet to receive a secondary? Im not verified yet but I received secondaries from UConn, Dartmouth, and Columbia....so where's BU, etc?
 
I have received secondaries from GW, Coulumbia, Meharry and Uconn.
Medical college of GA send me an email acknowledging the receipt o my application.
Also applied to Dartmouth, Tulane, Johns Hopkins...but nothing from those.
Check my mdaaplicants page, I have applied to over 30 schools but only Heard back from 5.
I am not complaining though since I haven't even finished those secondaries.
 
as soon as i submitted my primary i got BU, GW, NJMS, Tufts invites - is the consensus Not to submit any secondaries before you are verified?

Still relevant thread.

I have received those 4 as well but noticed (years ago apparently) that Columbia also used to send pre-verification secondaries.. anyone get an invite from them without being verified?

I know some of them (BU) won't even let you submit until your secondary is verified but others (Pritzker) tell you that you should.

Here's my pre-verification secondaries:
Yale
GW
Tufts (opens Monday)
BU
Pritzker
NJMS
Washington U
Dartmouth
