Please, don't underestimate the amount of time and effort that goes towards the secondaries. That is the best advice I can give as someone who spent alot of time creating a great primary, and underestimated the secondaries. You'll get a series of essays for each of the schools and have to fill out additional information for each school. It can be a lot, especially after doing the primary. Not to scare or stress anyone - Stay organized and on top. Thanks for sharing this video!
i'm about to submit my primary app, so finding your secondary videos have been so so helpful thank you!!!
Thank you and good luck! 🤞
I love your channel so far, can you make a video with how to brainstorm secondaries and some examples?
Yes! Thank you for the suggestion 😊
this was so helpful!! did you take a gap year?
I took 2!
Thank you for your videos! May I ask which school was the one that added Photo Upload after you submitted? Seems weird that there wasn’t an email announcement! Thanks! (9:20)

I just dont understand why they ask secondaries about stuff that is already in my primary app??????. Why are they asking me again why medicine??? That's what my PS was for which took me so dang long!!!!!
its more school specific like why do you want to go there? but i agree haha its tiring and expensive
