Are you IS or OSS? Also if you don't mind me asking what your stats are?

In-state and my Lizzy M was 71.7 with my undergrad GPA, but I also have a graduate degree (although I'm not sure how much that factors into things)

Received secondary today, primary verified yesterday!

 

[dhovaking]

Wow congrats!

I keep checking the portal but I still have the message that they've reviewed my file and will grant me an interview if they want (assuming I'm on re-review). Any idea when they re-review? Would it be after the first round of interviews?

At least you're that far... I'm half-convinced they forgot about mine D'x I've been waiting for review for 16+ days

I'm still being reviewed - in-state and I was complete on 07/10. I applied fmSTAT, so it's kind of weird that it's taking so long to hear anything.

Anyone having problems with the website?? Oddly enough, my essay keeps duplicating apostrophes after saving it. Tried multiple times to erase and re-save but it continues.

I submitted my primary on 7/18 and haven't received a secondary yet. Is this a sign that I have been pre-screened or am I jumping the gun? I am OOS, but above what I thought to be their minimums.

I'd say jumping the gun, since they're currently dealing with (1) II for people who submitted earlier, and (2) incoming MS1/MS2. I know 14 days does seem a while but I think the rate at which schools get out secondaries decreases as the season goes on? Someone correct me if I am wrong

Your OOS status may play a part into it, especially since we're entering the thick of the application process now.

By submitting your primary, do you mean you haven't been verified by AMCAS yet? VCU sends secondaries after your primary has been verified.

VCU could just be taking it's sweet time then. Someone in a thread two years ago waited 13 weeks for their secondary (but I doubt you'll be waiting that long).

When they say "don't call requesting special dates," do they mean that candidates cannot ask for or reschedule specific interview times?

 

[Civelle]

-Getting ready for a rejection

Doubtful it will be anytime soon. They would flat out reject you like they did multiple others. You're probably gonna be in the pile that gets looked at continuously as they go through the season. It's not over yet.
