How would they feel about a day 15 submission? I went to submit but was automatically logged out from inactivity and lost an entire essay. Now I need to redo the entire thing and it's past midnight... Let that be a lesson to me not to do the essays directly in the page. I hate working with these portals.

Don't sweat it! 2 weeks isn't a hard deadline by any means since their email says it's a recommended deadline. Submit it anyway, you never know how they'll see it unless you do.

Thanks. I was aware it wasn't a hard deadline but I also tend to worry that recommended deadlines are actually ""recommended"" deadlines. I'll try not to worry about it too much. My app won't even be complete here until the 15th because that's when my preview score comes, I was just trying to submit it on time to avoid looking unprofessional regardless.
 
Cooper doesn’t require preview it’s just recommended. I’m not taking preview for cooper, and i was complete the day i submitted my secondary
 
OOS II received today, complete 7/23. First II and super excited :)

Anyone here didn't recieve a secondary yet. I was verified on 6/23, but added the school a month after my MCAT score release.
 
I went ahead and applied here after reading more about it, even though I'm OOS with no ties to the area. The focus on the underserved, humanistic medicine, and community service all speak to me in a profound way that aligns with a lot of my experiences. Heck, as I was reading about CMSRU on their website, I thought "If I were to build a medical school from scratch, this is exactly how I'd build it." I got the secondary the day after transmitting my primary to them and submitted my secondary a few days ago. My fingers are crossed for an II! Good luck to everyone here. It seems like an amazing school.

Yea, I think I got ghosted and probably won't receive a secondary here. Oh well. Congrats to everyone that got an interview.
 
OOS II received just now!!! Complete 7/20 LM 76. I can’t believe it

I noticed from the description of the curriculum that they have dedicated STEP II study time (2 weeks). Is there anything like this for STEP I?
 
How long did it take you guys to get a secondary after being verified?? IS applicant btw

From here it looks like they do have a dedicated step 1 study period, May 6th-June 28th this year
 
Anyone had their interview and willing to share about the experience?
 
Should I assume I was screened out if no secondary by now, or are applicants allowed to ask admissions? OOS applicant who was verified earlier in the summer

There’s probably no harm in asking them for one if they haven’t sent you a pre-secondary R.

IS II received today, complete 8/17.

It actually ended up in my spam folder—I guess checking it every day finally paid off

for those of you who interviewed, what did you do about thank yous? did you do one joint one for both interviewers or 2 separate
 
Just received an II, I’m really interested in Cooper but hadn’t seen the previous posts about the limited OOS spots. I have extensive service that aligns with the school’s mission but don’t have ties to the area. Wondering if my chances are already low and if doing well in the interview won’t push it much? Any tips on how to prepare? Also is the interview open-traditional?

I think Cooper is pretty OOS friendly, especially if you are mission fit. I'm OOS but n=1. The interview is semi-open, traditional
