I have a reasonably competitive application. I'm not getting into Harvard or anything, but I think I can get in to a mid tier school. Having said that, what are my chances of even getting looked at this late in the cycle? I've heard that med schools are being more flexible on timing because of Covid (which totally screwed me over this cycle). I'm submitting my ap this week. I'd rather not waste a bunch of money applying to schools I have no chance to get into.

Had a 522 MCAT and a 4.0 SMP (but pretty ****ty uGPA), amazing ECs, work, etc.

I was complete at all schools in October. Got only 2 IIs and 1 A. The II were at my SMP school and local state school, and the A at my SMP.

Apply next cycle.
