Application Update

I am happy to say that I submitted my application last Friday and I already have my KU secondary application!  However, my application has not yet been verified, so I am wondering how I got the secondary already. 

The process goes something like this:
Fill out primary application and submit it. 
Wait for them to verify everything
Get verification status - they then send application to selected medical schools.
Selected medical schools send out secondary application.

 Even though it's weird, I'm happy that I got it! So now I have to fill out about 10 essay questions.  :o(

In my last post I mentioned that my score was higher the second go around, even though it wasn't exactly what I wanted.  I didn't really explained how KU figures in multiple MCAT scores.  KU combines the highest scores of each section.  So lets say I got a 10 9 10, and a 9 10 9, they would combine them to make 10 10 10, which would give me a 30.  So my combined score is where I want to be, and the only people to see my individual scores are the interview selection committee and my advocate who takes my file to the selection committee.  Everyone else sees a letter score.  Not every med school does this, but it sure works in my favor for KU!
