I like how it didn't even say invitation to complete-it was a reminder that the application is incomplete. Either way, secondary received!

Wondering the same thing. I only have 2 science faculty and 1 physician letter... Don't know if I should spend the money if they won't accept that!I got the same email too, "application incomplete." I wondered if it was because I didnt include a 3rd faculty LOR. Do you think I should pay the $75 and proceed?

Anyone know how strict they are on the two science faculty one non-science faculty letters? Think they'd take 2 science and 1 physician instead?
Dang that's frustrating.. :/ ThanksI called them to ask them about this and they said they are strict about the LOR requirements. Thankfully, my dean put that she was my "faculty advisor" in her letter and that suffices for the "premed advisor/committee letter" requirement.

Three faculty letters of recommendation: Two of those three letters must be from SCIENCE professors (undergraduate, post-baccalaureate or graduate programs). Please note that the faculty letters must be from a professor that issued a grade in a course that appears on the applicant's institutional transcript. The course number and title must be noted in the letter. -PCOM WebsiteAnyone know how strict they are on the two science faculty one non-science faculty letters?

So, one non-science letter doesn't appear to actually be required. You just need three letters from professors. Two must be from science professors, and the third can be from a science professor or a non-science professor. Right?
Okay so do they even have secondary questions? They don't mention anything but have a box for supplemental application. Unless that's just going to be a box to say they got everything. Definitely not clear
Also, do they automatically get the MCAT Scores and LORs? They're submitted on AACOMAS so I'm just trying to figure out what I have to do on my part. Pay $75 and call it a day? Help pls
Hi everyone! So do they really not have any secondary questions? Because when I downloaded my completed AACOMAS primary app to PCOM, there was a secondary question on the last page. But there was no way to fill it out since there wasn't a space to do so in the primary. I'll call the school tomorrow and ask. Then I'll report back.
I know in the past they have had 1 question on their secondary but the lack of a question is very unusual. I guess we have to wait.
I am in a similar situation. I don't have that non-science professor letter but I do have a letter from my "pre-health advisor." I know this isn't the same as your dean's letter, but do you think they would consider mine as a committee letter too?I called them to ask them about this and they said they are strict about the LOR requirements. Thankfully, my dean put that she was my "faculty advisor" in her letter and that suffices for the "premed advisor/committee letter" requirement.

Verbatim from PCOM's site: "A letter of recommendation from your pre-health or academic advisor/committee (undergraduate, post-baccalaureate or graduate programs)."
I would think that if your pre-med advisor stated that in the letter, that you would be fine! I had to contact my dean to make sure she stated herself as my dean, my faculty advisor, and my physiology professor in the LOR itself. Always defer to calling PCOM to confirm because your mileage may vary!
Logged on to SDN to ask if anyone else had gotten this weird incomplete email haha...such a strange way to word a secondary email!
Oh well, happy to have received it anyways
yeah I was gonna ask the same q?Wait am I crazy, or does the secondary ask for AAMC ID and not AACOMAS?

Yea after about an hour of editing I got it down to exactly 250 words hahaAnyone else having trouble condensing their supplemental essay into 250 words?
I know it's nice to not have to write too much, but a 250 word limit is really limiting.
