Should I reach out to admissions if I haven’t received a secondary yet? My app was verified like June 9th

I was verified like 6/12 and got my secondary 7/7

I think you're getting trolled because II means interview invite (and i assume you're talking about getting a secondary). Hard to say if you should be concerned, but Rush does a pre-secondary screen for mission fit (this is on some podcast online)

I looked up the pre-reqs and it said AP english doesn't count for English.... and i already submitted the secondary. Can anyone confirm or deny this?

This is true, and they are strict about the requirements for all of their prerequisites. You can also use a different writing-intensive class that you took during college in its place, but this would require you to email the office for permission to resubmit your application with a class that satisfies the requirement.
