submission

Hey guys, So I was just accused of plagiarizing a summary of a research article. This research article had a lot of scientific terms that could not be changed and I did paraphrase a lot of the aims and discussion to summarize. Apparently I misunderstood the assignment and we were supposed to go...

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...

Hello all! I've been so stressed with two classes and two jobs that I couldn't work on my med school apps much at the beginning of the summer. Am I too late if I submit to AMCAS, AACOMAS, and TMDSAS in August now? I have no particular goals to get into top medical schools, so I just want a good...

Thank you everyone in advance, SDN is always crazy helpful. As a reapplicant i was suggested to not send the same letters of rec. unless there are new ones to read as well. I am only a DO reapplicant. I applied MD also, but it takes so long to validate I'm sure it will come before i even get my...

Can someone explain the general timing for submitting the primary app. I got my transcripts and MCAT score verified on AACOMAS and I'm working on the application right now. I'm almost done, but should I wait until the beginning of June? I heard that they don't start reviewing primaries until...

Hello, I have a question about submitting the AMCAS app packet. So I know I am submitting my application to October 15th deadline schools tonight. But I also have the schools that I want to also apply to for November and December days as well. I was wondering whether submitting the application...

Can I create a new evaluation request once I submit my AADSAS application? Or are the LORs I have created requests for it once I submit it.

I am getting a bit stressed out about two of my upcoming deadlines that are on Oct. 2nd. The only thing I really have left to finish on my application is my personal statement and supplemental questions for some of my schools. I know I need to finish these before submitting. But my question.. is...

Hi, I'm taking my MCAT on August 24th (late i know but mostly focused on DO). I heard schools won't look at your app till your MCAT scores are in (Question1: that's true right?), so I will most likely submit my application in the last week of August. Question2- would it help me at all if I...

So if you're applying this cycle, you will notice there are 4 sections in the application as follows: 1. "Personal Information" 2. "Academic History" 3. "Support Information" and lastly 4. "Program Materials". As far as I'm concerned, the Program Materials section is basically the supplementary...

first time poster, long time lurker here. I have a question: I am a reapplicant and just submitted my 2018 application. I retook the mcat in May and am worried -- as I did not mark that I have a score pending (since scores were auto uploaded from last years app and I completely spaced on...

I have already taken the DAT once. I took it last summer in July. I am retaking the DAT at the end of July this year (July 31st, 2017), so I have a competitive application. I know it is recommended to submit the application early, however, I want schools to consider my new DAT scores when I...

Hello, all. I was wondering what the difference between submitting an abstract and submitting a manuscript is. Yes, I know what the two are; however, I am still a bit unsure of the entire process. Being around "basic science" people nearly all of the time, I've only been recently exposed to...

I guess what I am basically asking is what order should I do everything so that my entire application can be complete the soonest without any area suffering. What can be done while other things are processing? Some stuff can be submitted after. This is essentially what I am asking about. Okay...

Asking for a friend- So I've almost completed my primary application but my health advisor told me that not having any letters submitted through AACOMAS will negatively affect my chances of getting secondaries. However, I won't have my DO letter until the end of the summer (around July) and...
