We do - I received 16456 (yup, that's correct) documents. I had to take all of them. Did ERAS have them available and were they assigned? If ERAS has glitches on their part, it will affect what the program can download.

I have the same problem. I assigned one PS ,then deselected that old PS---& LATER ASSIGNED a new PS and now even though in my assignments--I can view the new one---The programs have downloaded both the PS.

Once assigned , they will get both , i think...You did this ressignment of a new PS to just one program . But, I did for all my 100 plus programs. So, I don't know whtz happening!!!!!

Hope they only put the new PS in our file.! GL

We only can see one PS. Once a new one is sent to me, the old one disappears. Only if a program prints your application immediately would it make a difference.

Take about paranoid ideations.

Day before yesterday st barnabas downloaded my application except my LORs which werent available at that time. Later when they became available, st barnabas did not download it. I thought oh so they didnot like my application so they dont want anymore of my documents. But today they downloaded the rest of the application too.
Take home message....a Little too much anxiety on our part...that too ...a little too early....wink

after the programs downloaded your application... how long will it usually take to get a reply?

Dear friends. MY LORs were received on 27 th and 22 nd AUGUST and NOT scanned to ERAS so far. I applied to ONE program. They downloaded everything BUT LORS were NOT avialabe to download at the time. NOW my LOR sent on 22 nd AUG is scanned and available but NOT RETRIEVED by the program. Meaning they WILL NOT retreive my LOR after they have downloaded everything else. This is risky business people. I think DONT apply until your LORS are scanned and available on ERAS. IF ANYONE DIFFERS PLEASE KINDLY LET ME KNOW at drbilalkhalid@yahoo.com

this has been discussed before,

PC's download on regular basis, and any new document gets automatically uploaded, as soon as your LOR is scanned and uploaded by ERAS they will get it, whenevr they download next time.

This is an interesting topic this time of the year guys. May i apuse a question, how much emphasis is put on MSPE during the screening process. I am still to graduate end of year, but aim sending my application like everyone else, but ai have so many resits during my course largely because i have to work 3/4 nights per week all 5 years to fund my course and look after wife and 4 children. so my medical school transcripts show all the resits obviously but the Dean put extenuating circumstances on my MSPE but aim still anxious on what it reflects to the PD. Any advice guys.
