late

Hi everyone, I’m 3 months into med school and have had a few issues with arriving early, usually due to unpredictability in traffic and the rare personal issue and now I’m being threatened with expulsion due to lateness even though I haven’t been late, based on their policy. Class begins at...

Applied to ~25 schools and haven’t heard anything from 1 school sending secondary. It’s been over a month since I completed my AMCAS. I understand COVID is pushing back the schedule, but I haven’t even received secondaries from schools that don’t screen. Is anyone else in this position? What, if...

Hi, I am still waiting to hear back from 9 schools. I know its super late and I really don't have much hope, but I guess it would be worth a try. Can anyone give me advice on how to send a letter of interest? At this point I will take any help. I've had one interview this cycle but was denied.

Below the line is exactly what is in my AACOMAS application. I am most concerned about the note at the bottom, is it acceptable? Or does it come across as pushy? I know that new MCAT date is late so that is my stealth way of asking them not to throw out my application before the scores are in...

Hi all, Is submitting a primary application at the end of September too late? The deadlines for schools are November/ December. I know the verification process takes ~6wks at this time. If a deadline is December 1st. Does that mean I have to submit by AT LEAST October 15th to get the...

I applied to 26 schools and sorted all the secondary invites into a separate email folder so I could see which schools I needed to actually do. I was completely overwhelmed in July by secondary invites so I tried my best to find and write the ones that were due first (which ended up being the 3...

Dear all who can help, It might be a rare case where I delay my Step 1 exam, but this is my situation. I am an IMG, graduate of 2015, done step 2 ck and cs and passed 1st attempt, and had some problems that made me delay taking step 1 till the 27th of august, my step 2 ck score is high, I have...

I'm thinking of adding a few schools to my list (Vanderbilt, Duke, Baylor, USC Keck, WUSTL, etc.). Is being complete mid-late August still okay for someone who is LM 81, or is it too late to bother?

I am taking the MCAT June 16th (score release July 17th). One of my biggest goals was that I wanted to apply as early as possible to be in the first wave, but due to unfortunate circumstances my mcat was pushed back to June 16th. Now I don't plan on selecting schools before my MCAT is released...

In short, applied to IM programs in Sept without CK score. CK came out recently, i emailed programs i've applied to so they know. Im thinking about applying to more IM programs where the deadline is late Dec or early Jan. Would this be a waste of money as most programs have already filled...

I have a really dumb question. I saw the thread about how not showing up to medical school interviews without informing them first is really unprofessional and could potentially burn bridges in terms of residency chances. I just wanted to confirm that denoting a school on AMCAS, receiving a...

Hi, so I used to be a pre-med student. Change of hearts happened, now I am applying to grad schools. By the time I made this decision, it was pretty late. I have submitted my full applications to all the schools I wanted to apply to on time. However, I need to take the GRE later on. You see...

Hey guys, 1) So last night I submitted all of my primaries and have my transcripts verified, as well as my official DAT scores posted; however, I am still waiting on LORs. The last 2 LORs will be submitted early next week before September hits (so they say). Am I too late? AADSAS says my...

Hey all, So I had a problem sending my transcripts from my old school. They just sent off last week priority so I'm anticipating them being recieved and input by the 15th (Hopefully). This will put me at early to mid August verification. I'm applying both MD and DO and I'm not the strongest...

I'm an Kansas resident, but I have family and have lived in Texas for a significant part of my childhood. I wanted to apply via TDMSAS, but have been struggling to finish my Optional Essay and Personal Characteristic Essay. Would it still be too late to apply to Texas schools? For reference, my...

I was wondering when the latest date to take the MCAT would be in order to still apply in a timely manner for this cycle. I was hoping to take it on June 1st, which would mean the scores would be released on July 6th. Would this delay or hurt my application in any way? I know that many schools...

Hi, I was wondering if it was ok to take the MCAT on the June 1st test date and how that will impact my application! Thanks!

Are there still a good amount of seats in most medical schools? Are interviews in late January usually for the waitlist or are there still a decent amount of sets open? Essentially do interviews become much more difficult and the chances of getting a spot much slimmer by late January?

Hi everyone! To summarize my situation, I messed up and haven't gotten my transcripts sent to PTCAS for verification and my deadline is Monday the 17th (University of Montana PT Program). I have everything else done and my questions are AM I SCREWED? and WHAT SHOULD I DO? I am curious if I can...

So a school just sent me an email that i've been selected for an interview and they told me to choose a date. I was surprised to see how quickly the dates filled up. I did see the email a bit late, approximately 24 hours after they sent it and they only do interviews once a week so I ended up...

I submitted on 7/13 but am still waiting for one of my transcripts to arrive while I got an email saying my other transcript is there yet it isn't attached to my AACOMAS app yet. I'm hoping verification won't take too long but I'm worried I'm getting my app in a little late? I couldn't submit...

I took the June 18th MCAT and am waiting for my score ( July 17th). Non-trad applicant and don't really have the money to shell out if my score isn't here I need it to be..... Will submitting my AMCAS on the 18th of July really hinder my chances? ( all other factors aside...gpa, mcat score...

I've seen many threads about shadowing too early or shadowing too late, but I'm making a new one because I think I'm in a situation where both applies to me. I shadowed an ophthalmologist for 55 hours the summer before my senior year of high school, and I just graduated from college in May of...

Hello! I'm applying to PSEP (WICHE program) from Arizona, but I'm applying late. I submitted my application late March and the "on-time" deadline was in the fall. Although I'm late, I can still be considered as an alternate. Does anyone have any experience submitting late and receiving any PSEP...

So this is my first cycle applying. Non trad, late applicant (complete Nov., secondaries all done by Jan. 1), only applied to DO. So far received 1 preinterview hold (AZCOM) and 3 interviews. All 10 schools gave me a II. Of the interviews, I have one rejection (WesternU COMP), one wait list...

Hey all! I've kind of run into a dilemma here for applying this upcoming application cycle--especially for TMDSAS. The dilemma: After weighing my options and commitments realistically this semester (I'm a college student) I'm planning to take the MCAT on June 18th so that I can have some extra...

I submitted most of my secondaries in August, but I've only received one interview invite and 2 rejections. I applied to 14 schools, most in California. How late are we in the cycle? Should I be worried? I've noticed many people on here getting interviews and acceptances galore, but I'm not sure...
