Hello, I am intending on applying the next application cycle however, I have a little dilemma.
My senior year schedule is basically full due to a 8 hour Biochemistry lab. As a result, I have to take one of my "Advanced Biology" courses during the summer before my senior year. As many of you know, this is the summer one applies to med school and takes the MCAT.
As a result of being forced to take a class during my summer, it means I MAY have to move my intended MCAT testing date to July. Would it be possible to apply to Medical schools in June or so, and have my MCAT pending until I take the test in mid-July? Would this effect my admissions (i.e. would this essentially be the same as applying in August)? I need everything I can get when applying to medical school, so applying late is NOT an option.
Thank you very much!
