No secondary yet.... which is why I wonder if a publication update would help.Wait have you completed the secondary?
Grats!IS Secondary received today!!! Finally!! 😭😭😭😍😍
No wait to put that on the secondary. We will probably get the secondary before october. UCSF is very slow sending secondaries out.No secondary yet.... which is why I wonder if a publication update would help.
Yuqi what are you doing in SFOOS secondary just now! Verified 6/20, LM 79
hi! did you ever receive an answer to this... trying to decide which to submit. thank you!If we apply for JMP are we considered for both JMP and regular? Trying to decide what to choose when submitting the primary...
Sorry I totally spaced, yes I meant 6/24! Edited my original commentSorry did you mean 6/24? Havent seen any julys yet and I have yet to receive a secondary *cries*
I didn't get any email until I received the secondary.Do they send a confirmation email that they received your initial app? or is it just silence from verification until secondary invite?
Had exactly the same concern. I decided to only apply regular since i don't want to take 5 years to graduate.IS secondary finally received! LM 76 verified 6/24
Would it raise any eyebrows if I talked about wanting to work with underserved populations in the "expand on your activities" section but didn't apply for PRIME-US? I don't know if I want to do PRIME but I don't want to come off as ingenuine about my goals
I had the exact same thought processHad exactly the same concern. I decided to only apply regular since i don't want to take 5 years to graduate.
Good to know you and @premadbaddie were on a similar page! I also don’t really want to take 5 years to graduate so I think I’ll just apply regular. Thank you!Had exactly the same concern. I decided to only apply regular since i don't want to take 5 years to graduate.
never received an answerhi! did you ever receive an answer to this... trying to decide which to submit. thank you!
If it makes you feel better, I've heard that a lot of people leave it blank. I think you could write about being a woman, but if would probably be best if you a personal experience you could touch upon.how do you answer the 3rd one if you dont identify? does being a woman count? i dont want to leave it blank but i also dont want to play victim when it is not necessary for me to do so
im leaving it blank, personally am an ORM raised in a suburb and although I am a woman, I don't feel as if I have had personal experiences to speak about it meaningfully. But yes as @PatentForamenOvale said, if it has personally shaped you and you can speak on it, then go for it.how do you answer the 3rd one if you dont identify? does being a woman count? i dont want to leave it blank but i also dont want to play victim when it is not necessary for me to do so
oh really? how do you know that?If it makes you feel better, I've heard that a lot of people leave it blank. I think you could write about being a woman, but if would probably be best if you a personal experience you could touch upon.
A lot of people also asked if they should answer it earlier, but a lot of posters said they left it blank (my advisor also said that if you have doubts that it applies to you, just leave it blank)oh really? how do you know that?
i just don't want to overexaggerate something or play victim if that makes sense?
+1OOS secondary received just now. Verified early June
Same!! Just now. 505 MCAT!OMGGGGG
IS secondary just received!! I have a lower MCAT and I'm so shocked
they are MCAT blind for secondaries FYISame!! Just now. 505 MCAT!
I mean they haven't even gotten to july yet (I've been keeping an eye out as a july verification) so you probably have a while to wait...I am assuming if they are still sending secondaries to those who were verified in late June and July I should not panic yet since mine was verified in august ....right? lol
Question about this, where did you hear this? I’m trying to find sources that say that, but I can’t find anything official especially in relation to what part of the process they are MCAT blind to. Just trying to find more info!they are MCAT blind for secondaries FYI
