anyone else still waiting for Albany?

Also, anyone else get the Yale email that says "Thank You and Invitation" but then it's just inviting you to fill out the secondary. which i filled out months ago. At least the email was uber-friendly.

No I have Albany.
Yes I got the Yale email asking for money so they can send me a rejection 10 days later.

Yep, I have now gotten that email THREE times! The second and third times I was thinking it was an interview invite.... but no!! Just another invite to fill out the secondary (which was complete with LORs on 7/21).

yup still waitin on albany, i feel as tho me and u r the only ones tho...sigh

 

[DrVanNostran]

Dont Worry you guys will get it soon!

 

[DrVanNostran]

Hey, is it a big deal to get UCLA, or do they not screen?

 

[mfrenkie]

Is it a bad thing that since submitting my AMCAS on June 21st I haven't heard a single thing from UCLA and their login page doesn't recognize me?

 

[Slackenerny]

yup still waitin on albany, i feel as tho me and u r the only ones tho...sigh

I'm also waiting...and waiting...for Albany.

 

[LuMD2011]

Yesterday night I received an email from Yale asking me to complete their secondary which I already did and received a complete status from their web page. I really do think that the ADCOMs are aiming to get our hopes up and then kill them. The email's heading was: Yale Invite. I was so excited. Inside the email said, sorry if you are receiving this twice and something about difficulties.

About Duke and Emory, I know we are waiting for Aug 15th for both secondaries, but does anyone know where we can find last year's secondary questions from these schools? I usually just nap and cruise this site all day, so I thought I could be productive instead.

Thanks!

You're not the only ones. I'm still waiting on Albany too.

 

[Looque]

Just in:
University of Missouri - Columbia School of Medicine secondary application

Short essay questions:
1. Please describe any element within your candidacy not fully-addressed on the AMCAS application that you want the Admissions Committee to consider.
2. Please outline how you might add to the overall diversity of the medical school and the practice of medicine. This could reference specific personal traits, education, life experiences, etc.

And for any re-applicants:
In the space provided below, please provide the Admissions Committee with a brief application history (including when you first applied and the number of application attempts). Please discuss any counseling that you may have sought from the Admissions Office; and most importantly, please describe in detail the ways in which this application is superior to previous applications.

NOTES: I'm in-state. The application is a word document that must be printed out and mailed in. Secondary fee is $75.
