My AMCAS was verified two weeks ago but still no secondaries, when do they get sent out? And do they come to my email or do I have to check the AAMC website? Thanks!

Some schools get your contact info from the moment you submit AMCAS and will send secondaries prior to primary transmission. But that is school specific

I’m glad you asked. I dont but I assume that everyone applying to medical school has their own spreadsheet with the specifics of all they schools they are planning to apply. This of course would have been prior to opening of AMCAS when you spent months researching each school and planning.
Sorry for picking on you just venting in general. This is a pet peeve of mine with applicants.
Np, thank you for clarifying. This info is new to me, as I used to believe that schools only send out secondaries after verified primary. The reason I asked if a list of those schools are available is so I can prioritize writing for these schools. When I searched for specific schools, I don't recall any school explicitly saying that hey will send secondaries before verified primary. They usually say "secondary applications are sent to all verified applicants."
Anyway, thanks for bringing this up. It's good to know some schools will allow me to submit secs during the anxious waiting period

I've recieved 4 secondaries and submitted them within the first few days, MSUCOM,CCOM,Drexel and MSUCHM. Now hopefully waiting for an interview or rejection lol. I was wondering if anyone else has received an interview yet from any of the above schools or any other ones?

Does it make me a super-nerd that I actually DO have a spreadsheet for my potential schools, complete with tuition costs, avg MCAT scores and GPA, cost of living in the area, unemployment rate (for my husband), crime rate, property costs, etc?

I have a spreadsheet like that minus the cost of living, unemployment rate, crime rate, property cost. But I do have their 10th percentile MCAT, interview style, when they start sending II, their OOS acceptance rate, # LOR required, and possible screening process. am I a nerd? I'd say nah LOL
I think it's great that you have all that into consideration!!
