Because I wasn't able to secure any May MCAT spots, and don't want to flub it by rushing into an April Exam, I'm going to be taking the exam on the June dates. This is what I think will happen, if it's incorrect, please let me know because I'm confused about the whole timeline
Submit - June 1 (You can submit a primary w/o an MCAT score, I'm told) I plan to only submit to 1 school so I can add others when I see what the score is.
MCAT - June 18 - I take the MCAT on this date
MCAT Release - July 21 - This is the date that AMCAS had said my scores will be released, and automatically put into my AMCAS application
AMCAS Verification: June 20 - I'm expecting to be verified around the 4th week of June. You can be verified w/o an MCAT score I am told.
AMCAS Completion: July 22 - I have a question about this which I've asked below
Secondaries: I plan to pre-write most of my secondaries and get those back last week of July/first week of August
Questions
1) Is there a delay between being complete with AMCAS, and being complete at schools? For instance, if I do complete by the last week of July, will there be another waiting period where individual schools need to assess my completion?
2) Do secondaries get automatically sent out? Or will I have to wait 2-3 weeks for that?
3) Does it look I will be hindered *significantly* because I'm applying late-ish?
